The brothers obtained the forbidden Gouraiger system from their father, Ikki, a rogue ninja who abused them. Ikki went against the Ikazuchi Way's wishes to obtain the Evil Will after learning of it during his mission in Egypt and learned of the "Final Secret" at the time of a meteor shower. He went against his school's wishes by creating the Gouraiger system and making his sons kill each other to evoke it while making them believe that rage and hatred would only promote strength.

Ikkou eventually regains his sanity and refuses to obtain the Evil Will like that ultimately deciding to abandon this goal and focus on his new goal of supporting the Hurricaneger. He develops a friendly rivalry with Yousuke later in the series as well as gaining a mortal enemy in Manmaruba (who implanted a Space Scorpion egg in the man's body for using him to get into Jakanja's ranks). He attempted to have the egg removed from his body with Ramon's aid a secret–even from Isshu. However Ramon could only hinder the hatching until Manmaruba's Mind Wave made it beyond Ramon's skills. Though told a cure may be found in Tibet Ikkou refused to leave and it nearly killed him as a result; only stopped by Yousuke nearly killed himself to provide an antidote.

From the very start he attempted to bring about the Evil Force's coming by having the Gouraigers kill each other and Fangerus. Though both attempts failed Tau Zanto found an alternate means after probing Manmaruba's mind to learn of the Raging Arrow and the Grieving Bow. Once he ingested both weapons Tau Zanto used Satarakura to gather enough energy to assume a suitable form, the gigantic . Though he was able to open the wormhole Sandaaru wounded Tau Zanto forcing him to make his way in and become one with the Evil Force. As it began to destroy everything the Hurricanegers managed to reverse the process. Tau Zanto, with the Evil Force inside him, emerged and fought Senpuujin. Tau Zanto, mortally wounded, grabbed Senpuujin as he exploded but Tau Zanto survived and assumed the guise of all Seven Lancers until the two Ranger teams defeated them. Tau Zanto proceeded to overpower the Rangers without mercy but their refusal to give up enabled them to kill Tau Zanto with the Victory Gadget destroying the Evil Force forever.: Generals of Tau Zanto are with different specialties gathered from all corners of the universe. Over the course of the series the members die leaving only Furabijo and Wendinu as the sole survivors in spite of their apparent deaths. They reappear in Abaranger vs. Hurricaneger in a vain attempt to join up with the Evoliens by obtaining Janin Iga but the two girls are denied membership and hang out on DinoEarth until Furabiijo is summoned back to Earth by Chronos. During the final episode, while fighting the Hurricanegers, Tau Zanto/Evil Force assumed the forms of all seven Darkness Lancers who all battled and were killed by the Hurricaneger/Gouraigers teams.

Sandaaru later summoned Badogi to gain the Raging Arrow back fighting Senpuujin and withstanding all of its attacks until Yousuke used the Raging Arrow. Once Senpuujin fell under the Raging Arrow's power Gozen was forced to reveal herself to Badogi. After freeing Senpuujin from the Raging Arrow's power, Gozen instructs the Earth Ninja to form Tenrai Sempuujin, and they use the Raging Arrow with it to destroy Badogi.: A raven
-themed ninja from the planet called Crow Garden. Its feathers are made of a strong alloy. It was first summoned to steal back the Raging Arrow from Tenrai Senpuujin when Hurricane Red stopped Sandaaru from hurting Gozen. Dezagi later battles the Earth Ninja to gain Gozen using its wings to blow back every attack that the Hurricanegers sent at it – including Tenrai Senpuujin's Ultima Storm. Sandaaru later uses Dezagi to track down Gozen's location with Hurricanegers and Gouraigers protecting her in spite of a disadvantage. Seeing the two ninja groups embody their schools' strongest attributes Gozen is able to increase Tenrai Senpuujin's power to destroy Dezagi.: An ocelot
-themed spy from the planet Ocelot who is a mistress of shadow ninpou and used her skills to uncover the Dark Stone's whereabouts. She attempted to kill Gozen but Shurikenger kept her at bay before Sanderu called his pet back. Later, given Dezagi's feathers, Madogi used her special abilities to create the , evil duplicates of each Earth Ninja, using them to draw out the real Rangers and Gozen for Sandaaru's actual plan of putting collars around the Rangers' necks to force them to kill Gozen which makes Gozen feel sad about fighting the Rangers. Madogi was able to attack the powerless Gozen but Gozen used her short sword to destroy Madogi's collar negating her power over the Rangers. Enraged by Madogi's stunt the Rangers use their Wild Thunder Break attack to kill her.
-ninja composed of fire-using and his ice-using lacky . They were hired by Jakenja to abduct Laiina from Astrom bringing her to Earth on the Tri-Condor. They ended up in a dogfight with Tenkujin which results with Laiina crashing the ship although she loses the Tri-Condor when the Hurricanegers save her. They learn that Laiina is needed for the Soul-Eating Ceremony and, upon learning of the location it is being held at, the Ninsaru freeze the villains and take Laiina's essence for their own and to become immortal. Though Laiina is captured the Hurricanegers managed to save her before defeating the Ninsaru with Triple Gadget with Laiina regaining her Tri-Condor. The two villains survived and used their "Gigantic Fusion" Ninpou to assume the titanic form of who overpowers Senpuujin, Gouraijin and Tenkuujin. Laiina gives the ninja use of Tri-Condor allowing them to form Tenrai Senpuujin for the first time to defeat Ashurasaru.: A robot that Furabijo created and is identical to her in every way but 300 times powerful. She actually defeated the Gouraigers and Shurikenger single-handly until she was called back to re-charge her batteries returning to fight at full-power by the end of the week. Upset by this fact, and impressed with the robot, the other Spears kick Furaibijo out for the better robotic version. She intended to overthrow the Jakanja when their guard was down and become the new leader. Once fully charged she returns to Earth only to find her creator was standing up to her and planned to plant the remote control on her. Furaibijenu was scrapped by an enraged Hurricane Blue only for a Copy Giant to recreate her. With her creation destroyed by Senpuujin, using Pitashito Hitode, Furabiijo returned to her place in the Jakanja.: The last of the wolf
-like demons they are from the B-Strike Hell Nebula which was decimated by Jakanja long ago. The Fangarou were too vicious to die out with rest of their race and were found by Satarakura who uses a special whistle to control them. He makes them his personal pets before setting them loose on the day of the second meteor shower via Tau Zanto's plan to evoke the Evil Force. Their names are Brown Destruction, Black Beginning and Silver Emergency. The Fangarou use their racial abilities to eat the shadows of their victims turning them into werewolves until the Fangarou themselves are killed. The trio overpower the Hurricanegers and Shurikenger until the Gouraigers arrive forcing the wolves to retreat back to the city to claim more victims. Though they overpowered the ninja they managed to destroy the Fangarou. However, at Satokura's call, the Fangarou reformed and merged into the 3-faced and the victims of the Fangule start to turn other people into werewolves to complete the ideal setting for the Evil Force is coming. Though the Gian t Beast Fangerus overpowered Gourai Sempujin it splits back into the Fangarou when Satokura's whistle is broken. Once Satokura fixes the whistle the Fangarou merged back into Fangerus and resume attacking the city and fighting the Hurricanegers and Gouraigers who were now in their Shinobi Machines as humans. This is until Revolver Mammoth arrives with the wolves being the first to be killed by Revolver Gourai Senpuujin.

Shurikenger
is the Ninja of 20 Faces and a representative of the Space Union Ninja School. He was formerly known as Asuka Kagura, a star pupil of Hayate Way who had the talent to become a Hurricaneger, but he mysteriously vanished and was branded a as a result. He encounters Gozen who he devotes himself to as her personal fighter at the cost of his renouncing his name and face and is forced to remain in his costumed form permanently. A somewhat comical figure, Shurikenger often used broken English phrases including the famous "I am Ninja of Ninja!" and also often poorly mixes both Japanese and English into his sentences. At first he would often disguise himself as a 'regular' person (even the other ninja would not know who) until he reverts to his true form with the Shuriken Ball device when confronted by Jakanja. He has the ability to transform through the command "Face Change!" into , a quicker and deeper voiced version of himself, when the top of his helmet is rotated as he removes his main chest armor, which is a weight-inhibitor, and once removed from his body Shurikenger's strength and speed increase. Though he came to believe that a true ninja must follow orders he defied Gozen by saving the other ninja whom he began to see as his friends. Taking Gozen's death hard Shurikenger proceeds to train the ninja while remaining as unfeeling as possible. When mortally wounded while fighting Sandaru Shurikenger reveals his origins and urges the team to continue fighting from their world. He gives them his Shurikenball so they can follow the tracking device he planted on Sandaru to make their way to the centipede. While he seemingly died in Tenkuujin (the centipede destroyed Satarakura in a kamikaze attack), Shurikenger survived and aids the Abaranger and Hurricaneger/Gouraiger teams briefly in their fight against Janin Iga stating "he's wherever he is needed." When introducing himself Shurikenger says .- Super Ninpou: Miracle Thousand Knock, Branch Magic Ball, Fire Ken.

Eventually he returns to his human form to protect his daughter from falling debris when their base was affected by the Evil Force. Two months after the final battle Mugensai gives the Hurricanegers and Gouraigers a final challenge to take their diplomas from him.: Mugansai's daughter and a scholar who provides the team's arsenal. She is their senpai due to her being in class 487. She also invented the robot ninja that wipes out the memories of civilians who have seen the Hurricanegers or those who left the Hayate Way to ensure the public is unaware of the school's existence. She and Shurikenger worked together to create their own Tri-Condor for the team. Oboro also has a habit of breaking the fourth wall in Sentai team-up specials by talking about mecha combinations. She speaks with a kansai dialect.: From planet Astrom she and her royal family were known for having the gift of regeneration—as shown when they briefly restoring Mugensai to human form.

She is the reason both Ninja schools have similar Karakuri systems. The Dark Stone placed in her forehead gives her a prolonged life but forces her to refrain from any form of sadness to maintain the seal. She moves in with the Hurricanegers after her location is compromised only to learn of the changes that occurred during her solitude from the outside world. In the process she learns the ninja are true heroes in spite of her earlier impressions of them. However, learning of her weakness, Sandaru manages to weaken Gozen and force the Grieving Bow Medal out of her which kills her as a result.- Hyakujuu Sentai Gaoranger: The warriors chosen by the Power Animals to fight the Orgs.

After Chuuzubo's death Manmaruba undergoes a pupal state and emerged two episodes later as an adult form, , wearing a cloak outside battles with his psychic abilities magnified and armed with the Manmaru Slasher. He had a grudge on Ikkou for misleading him earlier and infects him with a deadly Space Scorpion, whose brood spread to the others. Though Shurikenger managed to remove the scorpions Manmaruba still had Ikkou set for death as he secretly implanted a Space Scorpion egg inside his body during the initial attack. In Hurricaneger vs. Gaoranger he became Gao Black. However, as his psychic power assured him that Ikkou would die, he was horrified to see his own demise at Kabuto Raiger's hand in the process. Though his previous glimpse of the future was ruined by Hurricane Red's trickery, Manmaruba's own demise could not be stopped and thus created another cocoon with a clone of himself inside it. As he died, the cocoon eventually hatched a new Manmarubra more stronger than the original. With heightened psychic power he sees a future where he personally kills the ninja and makes the Gouraigers suffer a slow and painful death. He also sees a meteor shower through which he can clearly see "it". Manumabra places special life-draining neck-rings on the Hurricanegers and anyone the Gouraigers came into contact with recently to force them into a confrontation at Onibi New Town.

Though he gains the information needed for Jakanja's goals, the meteor shower causes his cellular structure to mutate him into the mindless monster . Tenkujin attempted in vain to stop him but Manmaruba ingests the Gouraigers as the Hurricanegers arrived in Senpuujin. The monster proves too much for them to beat but fortunately Manmaruba falls asleep to digest his food. The Hurricanegers take advantage of this to get the Gouraigers out of Manmaruba's stomach with Kouta and Namami freeing them while Yousuke holds Manmaruba at bay with Senpuujin. Once the Gouraigers are freed the team form Tenrai Senpuujin and destroy him.

In the process she falls head over heels in love with a young man named Hashimoto. Once her plan failed Wendinu's rage reaches its zenith and she grows, overpowering Senpuujin and Gouraijin easily, until the presence of Hashimoto causes her to shrink back to normal size. In Hurricaneger vs. Gaoranger she became Gao Blue but gets clawed by real Gao White and gives in to her vanity. She questions Sanderu and attempts to use Sargain's final creations to destroy the ninja in vain. She and Furabijou are blasted by the Victory Gadget ending up on DinoEarth instead of being destroyed and returning during Abaranger vs. Hurricaneger.
