Mike (Samurai)

"Green Ranger, ready!"

Mike is Samurai Ranger Forest, the Green Samurai Ranger in Power Rangers Samurai. He loves video games and is a bit of a rebel. As Green Ranger, he pilots the Bear FoldingZord and controls the element of forest.

Personality
Mike is a slacker who also likes hanging out with his friends. He is effective as a Ranger, though his sense of humor and lazy tendencies don't always line up with the ways of the Samurai.

Samurai and Super Samurai
Mike first appeared when Mentor Ji's call to arms took out a cheeseburger he was eating. He was revealed to be the Green Ranger, and soon proved that despite his slacking, he was a very capable fighter.

Not much has been revealed about Mike's past. It is presumed that Mike's father was the previous Green Ranger. It was established early on, however, that he was far different from his fellow Rangers. Unlike the others' unwavering dedication, Mike had no problems stopping for a bite to eat, or putting his training on hold for fun. While this keeps him one of the more well-adjusted members of the Samurai team, it does show during battle, as he is commonly depicted as rushing in early, and being knocked out quickly.

However, Mike has been shown to be a hard worker when given the right motivation, as he trained tirelessly to get strong enough to master the Beetle Disc, when it is given to Mia instead of him. It eventually pays off, and he earns the Beetle Disc to keep.

His greatest time to shine came when four of the Rangers get switched with inanimate objects, leaving just him and Emily. Ji gives him the Black Box, and with its power, he and Emily prevail.

After Master Xandred's defeat Mike goes with Emily.

Super Megaforce
Mike was one of the Rangers in the front-lines of Tommy's ranger resistance against the Armada.
