Plot
Grandiene has been waiting for the day of resurrection, the day when the planets are in the alignment of the Grand Cross. Her children descend to the Earth to make it a realm of darkness for her. Ten years prior, Doctor Tatsumi of the Tatsumi Disaster Prevention Institute predicted this event, but nobody believed him. He left his family so he can secretly develop and construct the Rescue System. Now in 1999, Doctor Tatsumi appears again to give the means to save the world to his children.
Characters
Go-Go V (Tatsumi siblings)
Five members of the Tatsumi Family are the five main heroes of the series.
Allies
- Kyoko Hayase (?? ?? Hayase Kyoko) / Sieg-Jeanne
A shuttle pilot who is Shou's superior. When the GoGo-V rescue her shuttle from a tornado caused by Tornedeus, she is able to recognize Shou's voice on the communications system because the GoGo-V were using the same radio frequency. Afterwards she wanted to join the GoGo-V but could not because Mondo Tatsumi only designed the team for five people. So instead she occasionally aids the GoGo-V in anyway she can and never got in their way. In the GoGo-V Movie she briefly gained the Sieg Tector armor from Sieg before he died. Using the power, she became Sieg-Jeanne, transforming with the call of "Sieg Tector!", armed with the Sieg Blaster. By transferring all the Demon Hunter powers to the Victory Robot, she helped the GoGo-V destroy Golomois. In the finale, Kyoko played an important role. Not only did she confirm that Grandiene was still alive, after noticing her when she went up into orbit in a shuttle, and then reporting it to the GoGo-V after Kyoko had returned to Earth. Later when Mondo sent her to give the GoGo-V the information on where to find the Max Victory Robot Sigma Project, and just after she barely escaped the destruction of BayArea55, Kyoko received the phone call from Ritsuko Tatsumi who had just come out of her coma and was able write down the call back number. Kyoko was able to pass both pieces of information on to Daimon and Matsuri which would be instrumental to the GoGo-V's final victory.

He was last of a people who had fought and defeated the Juuma, who were mostly exterminated by Golmois. Only Sieg survived and wanted revenge. He pursued Golomis to Earth and encountered the GoGoV, whom he blamed for saving the people in the crossfire instead of fighting Golmois. It took Kyoko, who reminded him of his superior officer Lilia, to remember what he was fighting for. When he was killed by Golomois, he gave Kyoko the gem that held the Demon Hunter powers in it. He transformed with his jewel by calling "Sieg Tector!". - Weapons: Sieg Shot, Sieg Sword, Sieg Blaster

Villains
-
The leader of the Juuma, a race of demons from another galaxy, that were as evil as the Saima, with Golomois' power similar to that of Grandiene herself, making him a fearsome enemy with his two swords. The Beast-Demon Hunters forced most of his tribe into extinction, with only Golomois to remain. He soon killed all of his pursuers' people but Sieg, losing his Dark Sword in the process. Golomois arrived on Earth where the Dark Sword landed. After escaping Sieg, he was caught by the Saima, and he decided to take advantage of them by making a deal with them. Once he regained his Dark Sword, he assumed his true giant form. It took the combined force of the Demon Hunter power and Victory Robo to destroy him.
- Weapons: Dark Sword, Shadow Sword
- An evil family of demons whose only objective is destruction. Their plan is to use the Grand Cross planet alignment to bring great calamity to Earth. The Family's matriarch, the Grand Witch Grandiene, hoped to travel to our dimension, by using the great amounts of minus energy that would emerge in Earth, when the Grand Cross had formed. Her children, the Saima Siblings, awaited her arrival, sending Saima Beasts to destroy and finish off the human civilization. They have their headquerters, Saima Paradico, in the North Pole.
-
The ruler of the Saima Family and mother to the five siblings. The ultimate form of all the minus energy in the universe. She set everything up for her arrival in this reality on the day of the Grand Cross. However, the GoGo-V interrupted the ritual and Grandiene ended up trapped half-way. Having failed, she ordered her sons and daughter to gather minus energy for her, continuously failing. After Salamandes' death, Grandiene took matters into her own hands and used the evil energies gathered by the Saima Paradico to complete her passing. Then, in a cruel and cold act, Grandiene sends her own son Kobolda to his death to accomplish her goals; revealing to Zylpheeza that she never really cared for the well-being of her children. She believed they would turn on her, like Gill did, and deliberately sent them out to die. She admitted also that she only used them to bring herself into the human world. Her body was destroyed by the Max Victory Robot, though her spirit remained and took possession of the revived and powered up bodies of Zylpheeza and Salamandes. She did this in an attempt to fulfill her goal of destruction. She was finally destroyed in the end after she was stripped of all power when the Max Victory Robo Sigma Project defeated the Destruction Gods Zylpheeza II and Salamandes Dragon.
The Saima family's true first-born. Having just been born, he attempted to kill Grandiene and was disposed of in the darkest depths of Hell. Gill survived, however, and became stronger from the ordeal, with a scar on his chest to prove it. Then, he was brought back into the land of the living, by Salamandes, and sought to summon The Infernal Dark Beast from Hell onto Earth. He planned to do this by using the blood of many people to accomplish this goal. He was fatally wounded fighting GoRed and GingaRed, but he used his own blood to complete the ritual.-
A child of Grandiene's chosen to lead the other siblings. Originally, Zylpheeza was the Dark King, but after failing/dying, he was succeeded by Salamandes. By the finale, the two were made into Destruction Gods (Hakaishin) when Grandiene stripped both of their bodies of free will and turning them into puppets under her control.
-
Saima family's second born, the demon of Aerial Calamity. Leader of the Saima siblings, he is give the highest title of Dark King and hates humans, but is deeply loving to his siblings and mother. He was admired by Cobolda and Denus. After being man-handled by the GoGo-V, Zylpheeza went on a personal war with them that resulted in his death at the hands of the Max Victory Robot. After a few attempts, Zylpheeza was resurrected, at the cost of Denus's life. He soon learned the truth of his mother, after killing his younger brother Kobolda, under the influence of her. After hearing the words of Nagare and Shou, Zylpheeza awakens, just to be killed by his youngest brother Salamandes and revived as a puppet. Though he regained himself, Zylpheeza was possessed by Grandiene's spirit and had to be killed upon his transformation into Destruction God Zylpheeza 2 (Hakaishin Jirufilza II), with the Max Victory Robot Sigma Project. - / :
The youngest, formerly an infant named Drop at the start of the series. Demon of Fire Calamity. Dragon blood runs through his veins. Being just an infant, he had to be cared for by Pierre, and would only say "Drop", not being able to speak. Despite this, his high sorcery and fire abilities let him participate among his older siblings. Upon Zylpheeza's death, he received the Dark King Star and used energy that was transferred from Zylpheeza. Drop underwent a maturation inside a cocoon. During that time, his soul took on the form of a human boy with pyrokinetic powers, who Matsuri befriended. After the period of maturation, Drop had become Dragon Prince Salamandes. Using the Dark King Star on his chest, Salamandes can create the "Saima Zone" in which the solar light is completely cut-off, allowing the Saima beasts to boost ten times their power. Later on, after the GoGo-V used the Victory Mars to stop the minus-energy asteroid that Grandiene sent, he started to fall out of favor with her. But after the destruction of the Infinity Card, Salamandes completely fell out of favor because he allowed a valuable weapon to be destroyed. He attempted to lure the GoGo-V to Hell in order to regain favor with his mother, but Grandiene trapped all of them there. With some help from Pierre, Salamandes killed all the hell-bound monsters and absorbed them to become Ghost King Salamandes (Yumao Saramandesu). The GoGo-V had a difficult time against him, since Salamandes was now able to transform human souls into energy powering him up through the "Saima Tree", which Pierre had grown at an orphanage. When the long lost mother of one of the orphaned children that the GoGo-V had befriended arrived, her tears had weakened the Saima Tree's power. Without the soul energy, the GoGoV were able to use the Max Victory Robot and the Victory Mars to kill him and only his Dark King Star remained. In the finale, Pierre is able to convince Grandiene to use Salamandes's Star to resurrect him, which she did. He was revived, alongside Zylpheeza, who was now under Grandiene's control. Luckily, Shou and Nagare were able to convince Zylpheeza that Salamandes was his younger brother Drop, forcing Salamandes to kill him, only to be killed by Shou and Nagare. But in the end Grandiene revived him as a complete puppet under her control in a dragon-like form, Destruction God Salamandes Dragon (Hakaishin Saramandesu Doragon), but was destroyed for good by the Max Victory Robot Sigma Project.
-
Grandiene's 3rd born. The Demon of Ground Calamity. He is the strongest of the Saima siblings and his strategies always relied more in power than thought, giving him a complex when he compared himself with the dexterous warrior Zylpheeza or the cunning strategist Denus. Secretly coveting the rank of Dark King, he tried to take it over after Zylpheeza's death, but was overpowered by Salamandes. He and his older brother Zylpheeza are close because they survived together when they were younger; ironically, near the finale he was deceived by his mother to fight the GoGo-V, when he was given the Cobolt Bazooka, and was killed by Zylpheeza who was being controlled by Grandiene. -
Grandiene's only daughter and only human resembling child. Demon of Aquatic Calamity. Gifted in the arts of disguise, she often used them to gather information or just cause havoc. Her strategies were particularly cruel and fearsome. She felt great respect for her older brother Zylpheeza. Near the finale, her plan to use a spider to syphon off Matoi's life-force to resurrect Zylpheeza failed, when the other GoGo-V were able to separate the spider from Matoi, by striking the other spider that was on Zylpheeza's chest. Denus, not wanting Zylpheeza to die again, placed the spider (The one that was used on Matoi) on her own chest and sacrificed her life so Zylpheeza could and would live.
Servants & Others
The family servant, most loyal to Salamandes. Pierre is a fly-themed sorcerer who dominates the Saima Cards, being able to create the Saima Beasts and enlarge them. He was thought to have been killed, when the backlash energy from the Max Victory Robot Sigma Project's Sword crushed him against the wall of a building. Truthfully, it just transformed him into a small fly-like form. He later reappeared in Time Ranger versus GoGo-V to help the Londers Family. It turns out that during the Time Ranger's battle against the giant robot Nova, the energies from this battle inadvertently allowed for Pierre to be revived and allowed him to return to his normal size and form. Using his Saima Magic he made the Londers Prisoners immune to the Time Ranger's weapons. But with the help of the GoGo-V (Because their weapons were designed to fight against the Saima Magic) most of the Prisoners were defeated, but Pierre entered the body of the remaining Londers Prisoner Boribaru and became Pierre Bori. This spell of their Saima Fusion was "Evil power of Saima, give us our last strength!". In the end, Pierre was removed/killed by the Time Ranger's Time Robot Alpha, using the energy given to them by the Victory Robot.
The Gatekeeper of Hell who helped Salamandes with his plan to trap the GoGoV in Hell. He summoned the spirits of past Saima beasts, that were slain by the GoGoV, who sought to be reborn in their bodies, but Chaos lost control over the dead monsters when the GoGoV broke his staff. He went with Salamandes after he became Ghost King Salamandes. Chaos died when he protected Ghost King Salamandes from the Grand Liner's Grand Fire attack.
The foot soldiers, armed with short swords.
- Denus' Imp Bodyguard Corps (36)
There were also female Imps who served Denus, which were killed by the GoGo-V. Pierre revived them as one giant Imp that then divided and became three. The Imps could become Mecha-sized when in the Saima Zone.
- Grim Reapers (GoGo-V vs. Gingaman)
Gill's henchmen from Hell. They are extremely resilient, able to pick themselves up after being knocked down from attacks. Only fire seems to be their true weakness, as they dissolve when coming into contact with it.
Saima Beasts
The are monsters of calamity created by the minus-energy-powered fusion of a "Saima Soul" and the information in the Saima siblings' cards. Pierre throws an information card into the World of Darkness and pronounces the incantation: "Evil Magic, with your power we shall create a Saima Beast from the World of Darkness! Amiyasu Amiyasu Amikurosu... Saima Creation!!!". When they are defeated, Pierre throws a Regeneration Card to turn the monster's remains into a 'Giant Ghost' ("Evil Magic, with your power grant this fallen Saima Beast the last strength! Amiyasu Amiyasu Amijiisu... Saima Regeneration!") that only the Victory Robot can defeat. When the Grand Liner destroyed Magma Golem, its remains became Golem Cards that Pierre uses to revive dead Saima Beasts as gigantic . Unlike giant Saima Beasts, the Golem Saima Beast are much larger and revived with a hardened body that only GrandLiner can pierce through. Later on in the series from episode 30-39, Salamandes occasionally created the Saima Zone, making it impossible to operate the Victory Robot. Only the Victory Mars could function properly in the Saima Zone since its power system is not dependent on Solar Energy.
In Episode 37, Salamandes started to use a very powerful card known as the Infinity Card. Its special power is that it can use absorbed energy from the GoGo-V's energy weapons and with that power, the next Saima Beast Carrier becomes more powerful than the previous Carrier, to the point where the GoGo-V's energy weapons will not work on it. There were only three carriers and in the end its final carrier and the card itself was destroyed when the GoGo-V used the Victory Mars to throw them into the sun.
When Grandienne gained her full body in the finale, some of her children's monsters appeared on her skirt.
Gill's Beasts
- Infernal Dark Hell Beast (GoGo-V versus Gingaman)
The monster summoned through Gill's sacrifice. This creature was so powerful that the Victory Mars and the Liner Boy were no match for it, even when Super Armor Shine Gingaioh and Bull Taurus arrived to help.
