Characters from The Secret of King Racules
Vedalia
Portrayed by: Ami Tomite
- Ambiguously Human: Seems able to transform into a Bognaarok soldier. She's revealed to be a human turned into a puppet by Shidejim.
- Back from the Dead: She's among those Devonica brings back to life in #49, though she never makes a full appearance, nor does she speak.
- Bunny-Ears Lawyer: She's a sweets-obsessed woman who nevertheless is a talented enough researcher for Racules to give her a stay of execution until she finishes her job. And she happens to have some connection with the Bognaarok.
- Chekhov's Gun: The round candy she ate back in Secrets #1 after wiping Racules' tear contained her research data. The candy is exhumed from her corpse in the finale.
- Vedalia herself becomes a big one by being the one to give Kofuki a lollipop that hints him on how to create a new Source of Eternal Life.
- Cynicism Catalyst: Implied. Racules already demonstrates a willingness to execute Vedalia after she completes her work, but his offense to Shidejim using her as leverage to save himself as well as the pained expression he makes as he knowingly downplays her sacrifice are implied to be Racules' final nudges into his "people are tools" mindset.
- Establishing Character Moment: She's first seen eating candy with her desk absolutely full of the stuff, and promptly ignores Racules entering her lab until Kofuki calls her out on it.
- Failure Is the Only Option: Shidejim possesses her body and uses her for The Infiltration, getting her cut down against OhKuwagataOhger. Not that it matters, since Racules would've executed her regardless.
- Impersonation-Exclusive Character: The Vedalia we've seen this whole time was Shidejim puppeteering her corpse.
- Meaningful Name: Her name is derived from the vedalia beetle
. - Morality Pet: Deconstructed. Vedalia is one of the few characters to invoke any emotion from Racules that isn't immediate disdain; the tyrant even showing offense at Shidejim's attempts to invoke her name for mercy in Secrets #3 and displaying pride at the girl's resourcefulness when he realizes how she protected her research data. These positive affirmations all occur post-mortem and Racules ultimately convinces himself that dying to protect the country is what she would've wanted anyway; downplaying both her sacrifice and its effect on him.
- The Promise: Before she dies, she asks Racules to do the bare minimum and give her a burial. This comes up again after Shidejim takes her over her body and uses it to fight OhKuwagataOhger. It's left ambiguous whether Racules followed through, though a jar of flowers ends up on her vacant work-desk.
- Red Herring: The first episode of the spin-off heavily hints at her being a Half-Human Hybrid. She was a human whose body was being possessed by the actual enemy.
- Sweet Tooth: Is constantly eating candy throughout her first scene. That candy was important: One of those sweets was actually a jewel containing her completed research data.
- What's Up, King Dude?: Vedalia's first interaction with Racules is to greet him casually. Douga tries to invoke decorum, but a non-apology is all he gets. Racules meanwhile is too focused on her research to care.
Shidejim
Portrayed by: Tsubasa Yonaga (voice), Masato Tsutamune (suit)
A Kaijim infused with the BNA of a carrion beetle.
- Big Bad: He's the primary antagonist of The Secret Of King Racules.
- Crouching Moron, Hidden Badass: According to #2, Shidejim's normally a shambling mess with spotty memory and zero motivation. He's much stronger when he's allowed to puppet a body.
- Curb-Stomp Battle: He's no match for OhKuwagataOhger, who strikes him down with a quick Finishing Move. The attack actually knocked him out of Vedalia's corpse, allowing him to flee.
- The Infiltration: Shidejim possesses the doomed researcher Vedalia and poses as her, intent on stealing the OhgerCalibur ZERO. They wipe away one of the Manly Tears shed by Racules upon seeing his Evil Knockoff King-Ohger completed, allowing the monster to bypass the blade's DNA Lock and briefly hold it. Racules and Douga intercept and stop him.
- Meaningful Name: His name is derived from the Japanese name for the carrion beetle, shidemushi (埋葬虫).
- People Puppets: Shidejim can take over someone's body and use it for his own. The process also grants him intelligence and strength beyond his fumbling self.
- Villain: Exit, Stage Left: He flees Vedalia's body and escapes the castle after his battle with Racules. He runs too far away and ends up in Toufu.
- Walking Spoiler: Talking about Shidejim means revealing Vedalia was his body-puppet and that he survived the first episode.
Characters from Together with Moffun
Panpy
Voiced by: Nobuaki Kanemitsu
A cryptid hunter whom Moffun befriends.
Characters from Ohsama Sentai King-Ohger: Adventure Heaven
Reiniol Husty
Portrayed by: Shidō Nakamura (live); Yasuhiko Imai [Adventure Heaven], Tetsuya Aoki (episode 49) (suit)
The king of Hākabāka and lord of the Dead. In life, he was the Founder King of Shugoddam and one of King-Ohger's six chosen warriors.
- The Ace: He was mentioned by Jeramie in #21 to be the original founding king of Tikyū who earned his spot by means of beating the other chosen warriors in their own talents, before deciding to divide the planet into the five kingdoms for each warrior to have an equal rule over it.
- An Offer You Can't Refuse: Revealed in #27 to have been manipulated by Dagded into declaring war with the Bognaarok or face his people suffering a mass slaughter by the Galactinsects.
- Anti-Villain: He isn't actually evil, but is just convinced that he's the only one strong enough to protect Tikyū from the threats that seek to destroy the people who inhabit it and is willing to go through with extreme lengths to do so.
- Badass Boast: He gives a couple standout examples.
- The first one comes as his introduction to the Ohsama Sentai while decimating the attacking undead Sanagims:
Reiniol: He who has torn down the great wall that towers over us. He who has never fallen, none equal to him. Heralded as the sword of creation, the eternal savior. For He is I, the founding king of Shugoddam, Reiniol Husty.- The second one comes right before his big Transformation Sequence:
Reiniol: I am a hero of countless wars, know my power. The cycle of killing, the life of war. Standing over a mountain of corpses, let skeletons guard even my soul. The founding king, Reiniol, stands before you.- He pulls off a third in the series proper when called to the land of the living.
Reiniol: The walls that once soared heavenward have fallen, so comes the undefeated, peerless warrior. The champion of yore, becomes the blade of the present. For I am...the first king of Shugoddom, Reiniol Husty. - Big Bad: Of The Movie.
- Big Damn Heroes: In the Final Battle, he returns to the land of the living to destroy most of Dagded's army and give the Kings the hint to make the final King's Proof needed to destroy Dagded.
- Casting Gag: Shidō Nakamura's most well-known role is the Shinigami Ryuk from Death Note; here, he portrays the top God of Death, as opposed to a lesser deity like Ryuk.
- Cold Ham: As expected from the first king of Shugoddam, his very presence and way of speaking is larger than life despite his cold demeanor.
- Dark Is Not Evil: When he shows up in the Final Battle, it's in his monstrous looking One-Winged Angel form, but he's decidedly on the heroes' side this time around and performing a Big Damn Heroes moment.
- Deader than Dead: The extended cut has Dagded kill him. In the Land of the Dead, no less. #49 shows it didn't quite stick, however, as Devonica is able to bring him back for the final battle.
- Establishing Character Moment: Reiniol is introduced by giving a Badass Boast as he defeats a group of undead Sanagims that attacked Gira, Yanma, and Rita.
- Foreshadowing: Reiniol sought to resurrect himself to prevent an upcoming crisis, the movie taking place before the events of #24 which depicts Dethnaarok plotting to destroy all of Tikyu as well as the arrival of Dagded and the Galactinsects in #27.
- God of the Dead: He is the ruler of Tikyū's version of The Underworld, which gives him sovereignty over the Dead themselves.
- Graceful Loser: He lets the King-Ohgers return to the land of the living after they defeat him in combat, but not before he reveals that Racles is still alive.
- The High King: As ruler of all of Hākabāka, he has seniority over the other monarchs like Iroki.
- It's All About Me: As the first hero of Tikyū and its founding king, he sincerely believes that he, and he alone, has what it takes to save the planet.
- Knightly Sword and Shield: He wields his own version of the OhgerCalibur ZERO alongside a buckler in his One-Winged Angel form.
- Meaningful Name: His first and last names are derived from the Japanese pronunciation of Rhyniognatha hirsti (ライニオグナサ・ハースティ/ rainiogunasa hasuti).
- Not Quite Dead: Turns out, Dagded's attempt to destroy him Deader than Dead didn't work, and he shows up in the Final Battle.
- One-Winged Angel: Absorbs the souls of everyone in Hākabāka, human and Bognaarok alike, to transform into a monstrous version of Kuwagata Ohger. He apparently can become this form at will after this, even without the souls, as he assumes it to aid in the Final Battle.
- Superior Successor: Inverted. Unlike Gira, who flopped when it came to the other monarchs' specialties, Reinol exceeded them with the monarchs of his own generation. That being said, the reverse case is true for their rule; Reinol's methodology falls far too close to that of his other successor, Racles, and he believes that only he alone can protect the planet he called home. Gira, by contrast, is far more willing to rely on the support of the other monarchs and is open about teamwork and cooperation.
- Virtue Is Weakness: His main conflict with Gira, believing that kindness cannot save anyone in a world like theirs.
- Well-Intentioned Extremist: He wants to use Devonica's body as a vessel and return to the world of the living because he believes that he is the only one who can defeat the upcoming crisis.
- The Worf Effect: Gets taken out by a bored Dagded in the post-credit scene before his proper debut in the show itself.
Iroki
Iroki/Hachi Ohger (I)
Portrayed by: Akiko Hinagata (live), Kazuma Sakai (suit)
The previous queen regnant of Toufu. Initially a benevolent ruler who deeply cared about her people, the Fury of the Gods turned her into a hoarding despot, leading Kaguragi to overthrow her. She currently rules over Toufu's territory in Hākabāka.
- Catchphrase Insult: She appears to be rather partial to "laggard".note
- Dark Is Not Evil: Her Evil Costume Switch from red robes and bright makeup to wearing dark clothing and makeup is supposed to show her fall into tyranny during the Fury of the Gods, where she hoarded all of the food supply to herself, leaving her citizens to starve. However, it turns out that Grodie used God Scorpion's venom to poison all of Toufu's crops; in order to protect the lives of her people and Toufu's reputation, Iroki took all of the food for herself and ate it, even if it meant dying as a despot.
- The Ghost: She is mentioned in passing by Kuroda in #15 of the main series, but does not appear in person until the movie.
- God Save Us from the Queen!: Kuroda recalls her as a tyrannical despot who hoarded all of Toufu's food supply for herself during the Fury of the Gods, leaving the smallfolk to starve. This led Kaguragi to stage a rebellion against her. As it turns out though, she was actually Good All Along: she only hoarded the food supply upon learning it was poisoned by Grodie, and was willing to be remembered in a negative light if her action protects Toufu's people and reputation.
- Go Out with a Smile: As Grodie's hold over her is broken, she gives a peaceful smile as her body crumbles away, proud that Kaguragi has become the ruler that he needed to be.
- Hero with Bad Publicity: During the Fury of the Gods, Grodie poisoned Toufu's rice crops using God Scorpion's venom. Due to the fact that their food supply is the country's lifeline, if word of this got out, the other countries would've lost their trust in Toufu, leading to its collapse. Knowing this, Iroki hid this by hoarding all of the crops to herself and eating them before setting Takitate Castle on fire, burning away the poisoned crops and herself and dying as a despot in the process.
- The High Queen: Was apparently this prior to the Fury of the Gods, having considered the people's prosperity only equaled by Toufu's prosperity itself. As it turns out, she never stopped being this.
- The Mentor: As it turns out, Iroki took Kaguragi under her wing and taught him everything he knows about governing.
- Posthumous Character: Adventure Heaven reveals that she died during the Fury of the Gods. She's brought Back from the Dead in #37, courtesy of Grodie, and once again in #49 by Devonica.
- A Pupil of Mine Until He Turned to Evil: Inverted. #37 reveals that she personally invited Kaguragi to live in Takitate Castle so he could learn all of about governance under her tutelage prior to the Fury of the Gods, when she became a despot and horded all of Toufu's food for herself. Except she never did turn evil.
- Significant Anagram: Her name is possibly one of kiiro, which is derived from the Japanese hornet (黄色雀蜂/kiirosuzumebachi).
- Taking the Bullet: She consumed the poisoned rice that was intended for the smallfolk.
- Zero-Approval Gambit: She is revealed to have pulled this during the Fury of the Gods; the food supplies she hoarded were poisoned by Grodie, and she willingly went for being labeled a tyrant if it meant the poisoned food would never harm her subjects and protect Toufu's reputation.
Devonica
Portrayed by: Ayane Sakura
A denizen of Hākabāka who acts as guide to the Ohsama Sentai. She grew up in the same orphanage as Gira.
- Big Damn Heroes: Pulls perhaps the biggest one in the entire series in the penultimate episode. When the entire army fighting against Dagded's forces finds itself being pushed back, Devonica arrives to call in reinforcements from Hākabāka to their aid.
- Beautiful Singing Voice: Gira comments that Devonica's voice has remained quite lovely since he last saw her.
- Earn Your Happy Ending: The Complete Edition of Adventure Heaven shows that she was able to finally have some of the cake she had been craving, after she gets brought back to the land of the living.
- Heroic Lineage: Comes from a line that serves Reiniol by judging whether or not a descendent of his is worthy of being king. Gira is very much surprised by this.
- Leitmotif: The melody of "Welcome to Hākabāka" acts as her theme throughout the movie.
- Like Brother and Sister: Is basically Gira's older sister in all but blood, with their interactions showing such a dynamic, though she initially denies such a relationship.
- Psychopomp: As part of a lineage that serves Reiniol, she ferries people from the land of the living to Hākabāka, the underworld. She's also capable of doing the reverse as seen in #49, bringing back Dethnaarok, Reiniol, Boshimar, Diid, Metally, Karras, and Iroki to the land of the living to aid in the final battle, albeit temporarily.
- Remember the New Guy?: She grew up with Gira in the same orphanage, but she is never mentioned by Gira or the orphanage kids until the movie.
- The Slacker: Is described as such by Gira, with flashbacks showing him to be completely right, much to her annoyance.
- Targeted Human Sacrifice: She was chosen by Reiniol to be his vessel so that he can return to the living world. Luckily, Gira convinces her that she doesn't need to die for his sake, which leads to her proclaiming her desire to live.
Characters from Ohsama Sentai King Ohger VS Kyoryuger
The Galactinsect King (SPOILERS)
Portrayed by: Taisei Sekai (live)
A version of Gira that's ascended into the Galactinsect King due to history being changed.
- Alternate Self: To the main Gira, due to Utchy's interference causing a Bad Present.
- Be Careful What You Wish For: In the show, Dagded states that he knew of Corsus' plan to empower Gira with Shugod Souls and secretly encouraged it; intending to make it go south. In this timeline, Gira was fed a second Shugod Soul by an unaware Utchy. Gira not only defeats Dagded, but takes the monster's place as Galactinsect King!
- Big Bad: Of Kingohger vs. Kyoryuger.
- Evil Doppelgänger: To the primary Gira, thanks to timeline changes making him the new Galactinsect King. Also invokes this directly by transforming into the "Evil King" with the OhgerCalibur ZERO; becoming a distorted, monstrous variant of KuwagataOhger.
- High Collar of Doom: Gira's Galactinsect attire has a massive collar that raises all way to his hair and out past his shoulders.
- Irony: The primary Gira's "Evil King" routine is mostly an act in response to what he sees as corrupt justice. In this timeline, he really does become an evil king that rules Tikyu with an iron fist.
- Mirror Match: This version of Gira battles both the Kyoryugers and the Kingohgers, including his Good Counterpart.
- Point of Divergence: This version of Gira came about due to Utchy accidently changing history; the Kyoryuger feeding him another Shugod Soul as a kid unaware of the danger to follow.
- Protagonist Journey to Villain: Utchy's change to the timeline resulted in the heroic Gira usurping Dagded and becoming the new Galactinsect King.
