- "Where are the strong fighters?!"
- ―First words after being turned into a Hitotsuki[src]
Ashida (芦田 ) is a man who turns into a Chinese dragon-themed Hitotsuki called Goseiki (五星鬼 lit. Five-star Demon), possessing a Dairanger Avataro Gear, out of his desire to fight the strongest man and become stronger. He later evolves into Goseiking (五星鬼ング Goseikingu).
History
Wishing to fight and become stronger, Ashida finally turned into Goseiki after swiftly defeating Karaki (the kickboxing champion of Japan) on a fight, continuing his rampage and search for the strongest fighters. He would encounter and fight Taro after defeating the local Judo masters though he retreat when Zenkaiser Black join them.
He would later make another appearance where he, now equipped with his iron knuckles, and Don Momotaro fight once again when the other members of the Donbrothers arrive to help him only to struggle as he is able to put InuBrother out of commision. Despite of his power, he is brutally destroyed by Don Torabolt and grow into Goseiking. Unfortunately, he is swiftly defeated by the Don Onitaijin.
The now purified Ashida throws a childish fit that he cannot fight well no matter what he tries as the purified Dairanger Avataro Gear lands in Don Torabolt’s hand, becoming the KibaRanger Avataro Gear. TV STORY-Don 20: High Nose Elegy
