TV STORY-Space.29: Orion, The Strongest Warrior Though the oldest of the Kyurangers, Balance noted that he was the youngest of his clan. TV STORY-Space.7: Take Back the Birthday!
Meeting Naga Ray[]
While Balance was stealing a treasure from the Hebitsukai System, officers were alerted to his presence, and he had to escape quickly. He soon met Naga, mistaking him for one of the officers and pleaded for mercy. However, Naga decided that Balance was the key for him to be able to learn emotion, and expressed his wish to Balance. Balance thought that this was his chance, and made use of Naga to help him escape. TV STORY-Space.28: BN Thieves, Breakup...
Balance and Naga Ray became partners in thieving against Jark Matter, becoming known as the two-man BN Team whom were branded with a combined five million Pongi bounty by Jark Matter. TV STORY-Space.2: Let's Go! Phantom Thief BN Team!
As Tenbin Gold[]
It was on Zigama that the pair discovered the Kyurangers on a wanted poster, TV STORY-Space.1: The Super Stars of Space finding them to have a bounty ten times more than theirs. Having heard about a local Jark Matter facility storing a precious gem, the pair met Lucky, who believed them to be bearers of Kyutamas themselves, on the way to their mark. While they tell Lucky they aren't, Lucky still decides to wait out his luck and work with them on their job. However, instead of being stealthy, they are discovered because of Lucky looking for a fight. Balance betrays Lucky by lashing him with his cables, to Naga Ray's surprise, in full view of Jark Matter. However, Balance is shocked when Naga is angered and chooses to stay with Lucky. Balance asks to see the gem as reward and is allowed. He, however steals the gem. Seeing that Naga and Lucky are to be executed immediately, he intervenes by controlling the death trap. Balance and Naga Ray earn their Kyutamas and fight with the Kyurangers, joining them on the ORION after taking down Zigama's Daikaan Gamettsui. TV STORY-Space.2: Let's Go! Phantom Thief BN Team!
TV STORY-Tenbin Gold & Hebitsukai Silver Chapter
Introduced by Raptor to commander Shou Ronpo, the seven Kyurangers were sent to save the planet Needle from destruction at the hands of the Jark Matter. Engaged by a hostile new Kyuranger, Stinger, Balance and the others bar Lucky and Champ were struck by the Sasori System native's sting. However, the afflicted Kyurangers ultimately recovered in time to destroy the Moraimarz that was draining Needle's Planet Jume. TV STORY-Space.3: The Man from the Desert Star
When the Orion arrived in orbit of Earth, a planet strangely containing numerous Moraimarz, Balance and Naga were left on the ship to work on equipment under Shou Ronbou as the others were assigned to land on Earth for the first time by the commander's Kyulette, establishing a link between the Kyu Buckles which would allow the Kyurangers to summon Kyutama at will. Balance later joined the crew in congratulating Raptor on her transformation into Washi Pink. TV STORY-Space.4: Dreamy Android
TV STORY-Space.5: 9 Ultimate Saviors
Chou Super Hero Taisen[]
When Shou Ronbou sent the Kyurangers to capture Poppy Pipopapo
, Balance and Naga were sent in as back-up as a team of five fought the Kamen Rider doctor trio. Together, the BN Team intercepted Poppy as she was being taken to safety by Haima Kagami who was immobilized by Naga's glare.
Eventually, all nine Kyurangers joined the Chou Shocker Taisen with various Sentai Rangers and Kamen Riders fighting against the Shocker army of the Game World led by Shocker Leader III. Through use of the Futago Kyutama, the complete team fought using a duplicated KyurenOh utilizing all nine Voyagers against the Big Moraimarz Robo piloted by the Oogumo Great Leader, whom they vanquished by fighting alongside the enlarged Kamen Rider Ex-Aid Maximum Gamer Level 99. TV STORY-Kamen Rider × Super Sentai: Chou Super Hero Taisen
Orion[]
After the destruction of Daikaan Mothma's Moraimarz, the crew discovered that they had lost control of the ship and that they had been sent on a direct course to the Sun, causing a sharp rise in temperature which the mechanical Balance tolerated better than his organic shipmates. The ship and crew were ultimately saved, however, as Mozuma was destroyed by Shishi Red and Koguma Skyblue, causing his microbic extensions to dissipate and return control of the ship. TV STORY-Space.10: A Small Giant, Big Star!
Balance was among the crew left behind to perform repairs on the Orion following the ordeal with the Sun as a team was led by Shou to recover the Tomo Kyutama on Earth. TV STORY-Space.11: Three Kyutama to Save The Universe
Balance remained on the Orion with Garu and the commander while a team was sent to acquire the Ho Kyutama on Vela; receiving an update from Stinger and Champ, they learn that Scorpio had been made Karo of the Sasori System and sent to Earth. TV STORY-Space.15: Savior of the Water Planet Vela
Zyuohger vs. Ninninger[]
Through unknown circumstances, the nine Kyurangers made a brief appearance on an Earth where Jark Matter was not present. Instead, the Kyurangers arrived to intervene against the Deathgalien before they could interfere with the Zyuohgers' fight with the Ninningers for the future of Super Sentai against Gillmarda. With Tenbin Gold aiding in wiping out the Moeba pack, the Kyurangers eventually forced the Deathgalien to retreat before taking their leave with their appearance observed by the Zyuohger ally Bud, who realized that the future was in safe hands. TV STORY-Doubutsu Sentai Zyuohger vs. Ninninger: Message from the Future from Super Sentai
Planet Toki[]
Seeking the Kyutama of the Tokei System, the Kyurangers came to the planet Toki and turned the 12 keys needed to unlock it within 30 minutes. Approaching key IV, Balance met an illusion of Naga and, after sharing a greeting with him, turned the key unimpeded. TV STORY-Space.25: Planet Toki, the Boy's Determination!
Personality[]
At first he seems to be greedy and only cares about treasure, but he is a good person at heart (although he has his treasure-raptured moments). He is flashy, energetic and fast-talking. His flamboyant attitude balances the more neutral demeanor of his partner Naga. In lieu of his title the Trick-Star, he is not shy of being cheeky to both ally and enemy alike.
He has a habit of saying "Goisu!" (Radical!) and "Agepoyo wei!" (I'm so pumped!) whenever he has an interesting idea or whe he is feeling very excited.
Despite his very outward personality, Balance is still quite emotional. When he becomes sad, he often tries to put on a positive demeanor to hide his sorrow. An example was when he had his birthday temporarily stolen and when Naga had been brainwashed to Jark Mater's side.

Balance/Tenbin Gold
Yuki Ono

to be added
Notes[]
- Of the 88 modern constellations, Balance represent Libra.
- As his constellation theme is Libra, a pair of scales, he is the only Kyuranger who does not have an animal motif.
- His birthday is in March 26.
- This would effectively make him an Aries, Libra's polar opposite on the Zodiac Wheel.
- At 300 years old, he is the oldest of the Kyurangers.
- Balance has the earliest appearance of all Gold Rangers, having debuted as a ranger in episode 2.
