Category:Precious

Precious (プレシャス) in Boukenger are fictional artifacts that are the focus for each Task (episode) of GoGo Sentai Boukenger. Within the fiction of the show, each of these artifacts is defined as a "Precious" if it is physically or technologically superior to any current human technology. The protagonists of the series, the Search Guard Successor Foundation, are tasked to retrieve these items before any of the various antagonists, the Negative Syndicate, can use the Precious' powers for evil. Each Precious is marked with a different "Hazard Level" as defined by the S.G.S. Foundation's Accellular devices; a higher number denotes that the item is more dangerous if it falls into the wrong hands. After acquiring a Precious, it is kept in a containment device for further research.

Towards the end of GoGo Sentai Boukenger, all of the Precious that had been collected are destroyed in an attack on the S.G.S. Foundation headquarters. It is also revealed that the Precious are created from the power of the hopes and dreams of the human race.

Blades of Three Kingdoms Leadership
Three weapons forged by Koumei, the strategist during the Three Kingdoms era of China, said to give it's weilder the power to take down a thousand men and become the ruler of the world: Seiryuto katana, the Jabo naginata and the Sokoken. When not in weapon form, they appear as ordinary bamboo scrolls; but when unscrolled, they take form and can merge with others of the weapons to become more powerful. The three blades are sought after by the Dark Shadow Syndicate, with Shizuka of the Wind stealing two of them using her disguise abilities under the eye of the Boukenger. The third was formerly owned by a businessman who refused to give it up believing in it's status and in his own security until Souta Mogami reawakened his adventurer's spirit; this scroll was used alongside the GoGoKen of the DaiBouken to defeat the other two fused swords used by Tsukumogami Jougami and re-obtained them for S.G.S.

Madness Weather
An ancient Precious used by a civilization to change and control the weather around them, yet was considered too out of control even in its own time. The Jaryuu Tribe find it and utilize it's abilities to attempt to change the weather into one where it is consistantly hot all the time, making humans go extinct and providing the perfect climate for their control of Earth. However, the power of the Precious is too much for them and it unleashes blizzard-like conditions in the surrounding area, threatening to freeze over a major section of Japan turning it into a second Antarctic. After Akashi saves the other Boukenger from nearly freezing in vehicles collapsed in the ice and snow, the Precious turns into a monster which is destroyed by the Daibouken using the GoGo Drill attachment.

Imperial Pearl
A pearl upon which the plans for a secret weapon, the "BioPanzer" tank, was inscribed within at the dawn of the 20th century by a scientist wishing to protect it's secrets from those who could use it. Tracked down by Shizuka in hopes of merging it's power with Tsukumogami Takumigami, it ends up in the hands of a boy which Sakura (as BoukenPink) gives to and which he refuses to give back due to not trusting the human form of the Boukenger. Retaken ultimately by Shizuka and implanted within the blueprint-interpretor of Takumigami, it was used to recreate BioPanzer which is stopped by Sakura and the Bouken Shovel. The pearl returns to the boy, who finally gives it to Sakura claiming she'll hold it for "a friend" (BoukenPink).

Kubi
The Kubi is a special water-like medicine utilized by an ancient civilization of the Kubitani, the valley which they lived in. The warriors in the valley were ultimately killed off by beheading, but they continued on by protecting their Precious by utilizing the tricks of the valley it self as well as the usage of Mogari, a stone guardian preventing anyone from reaching or using it for themselves. Gajah gains control of the medicine and uses it to lure the Boukenger into the valley, pouring drops on them and letting them get attacked by Mogari until they discover the mechanism. After seemingly stopping the guardian, the true Mogari guardian awakens: a giant version of the defeated being which is ultimately stopped by the GoGo Drill and Shovel combination on Daibouken. After its defeat, though, the Kubi has no further value as a Precious, it's danger level only existing due to the means to achieve it.

Scale of the Salamander
The Scale of the Salamander is a scale of a dragon which was discovered by the SGS officers in Europe and sent to Japan to assist in the completion of the Accel Tector armor. Ryuuwon steals the scale after it's arrival, hoping to use it to empower Wicked Dragon Dryken and further transform it into a giant, but Souta reclaims it while escaping from Ryuuwon's trap. Merging the scale with the developed Accel Tector, Akashi completes the suit and is able to use the Dual Crusher to defeat Ryuuwon's Wicked Dragon.

Manuscript of Leon Giordana
Leon Giordana, a genius of the Italian Renaissance, created a notebook filled with various concepts and ideas that were centuries ahead of their time. (similar to Italian genius Leonardo Da Vinci) Giordana sent an original copy of his manuscript to Japan to the famed dollmaker Nami Uemono, who hid it away on a secret island in the south-eastern seas leaving behind the only clues to reach it within the kimono of two dolls he made around this time. While the dolls and the secret of the manuscript remained hidden for centuries, it's developments were known and utilized by the SGS, most notably in the creation of the "Parallel Engines" project Giordana thought up which would eventually lead to the creation of the technology of the Boukenger, including their powers and their vehicle mechs.

As the last protector of the two Nami Uemono dolls approached old age, SGS instructed the Boukenger to retrieve the dolls without telling them why. However Gajah, having heard of the potential of the dolls, manipulate the Dark Shadow Syndicate into retrieving the dolls for him for his own usage. In the midst of the battle, Yaiba of Darkness successfully took one of the two dolls while the owner ended up giving the other doll to Natsuki Mamiya, whom she grew to bond with during their visit. Once returning, the Boukenger are given another instruction without reason: to destroy the dolls before they could be used to reveal their secret; while Gajah made a deal with Ryuuwon to assist in using the doll to find the SGS secret. Akashi performed a dangerous maneuver of supposedly burning their doll, then letting himself get captured after a long battle through their DaiBouken mech to be lead by Gajah and Ryuuwon to the island, while leaving instructions and the remaining doll (which was not actually burned) to his teammates. Ultimately and under dangerous circumstances, Akashi retrieved the manuscript using his knowledge of the location from the map of the SGS doll for safe keeping of the team's secrets.

Pipes of Hamelin
According to a legend which became a notable fairy tale, a piper took away children from a village who owed him payment for eliminating their rats in 1284. However, while it is unknown what happened to the children, a pair of Precious from this period appears to be tied to the legend. One pipe is the legendary pipe of the tale which can lure away anyone who listens to it's song (such as children), but can also brainwash those who listen to it as well. After being under control of the pipe and gathering enough victims, the pipe will also allow for them to fuse them into a gemstone, upon which a great power would be summoned when enough are created and gathered together. However, there also exists a second pipe which can undo the effects of the first, turning the gems back into the formerly-brainwashed children. The releasing pipe was found first on display at a museum exhibit; it was stolen by Shizuka but retrieved by the Boukenger which they legally were able to procure from the owner. The brainwashing pipe, however, was ultimately found by Yaiba and given to the Tsukumogami Kanadegami to create the gems for the summoning; after Sakura and Natsuki raided the territory having initially lost a battle and their Accellulars to the Tsukumogami, Sakura used the releasing pipe to release all the captured children and recapture the other pipe into SGS hands.
