Logo-supersentaiThis article is about a set of rangers in the Super Sentai series.

These are the Sentai Sixth Rangers, officially known as Sixth Hero (6人目のヒーロー Rokuninme no Hīrō)[1]. They are a subset of Additional Rangers or Heroes, and on occassion referred to simply as that. After 2 unofficial prototypes, the first Sixth Ranger appeared in Kyoryu Sentai Zyuranger. There have been 30 official sixth Rangers, including 1 replacement. They generally debut around the 17th episode of their respective series, but there have been exceptions.

It should also be noted that being a Sixth Ranger is not necessarily a numeric designation (eg, AbareKiller was the fifth member of his respective team) but rather that they serve as a "supplementary" teammate. In series where a Sixth Ranger is absent, an Extra Hero (Kakurangers' Ninjaman, Carrangers' Signalman, Gingaman's Black Knight) will frequently serve in their place. Unlike the main rangers, they are dressed uniquely.

  • As of Boukenger, the term 'Sixth Ranger' was officially used. It was used to refer to Bouken Silver during one of the 30 Sentai Encyclopedia segments highlighting all the previous Sixth Heroes.
  • For years, there had been debates and discussions over whether Shou Ronpo (Ryu Commander) or Tsurugi Ohtori (Houou Soldier) represented Kyuranger's Sixth Ranger.
    • The debate was put to rest after Houou Soldier was officially confirmed to be Kyuranger's Sixth Ranger. This confirmation is supported by:
    • Interestingly, Ryu Commander was once stated to be the Sixth Ranger of Kyuranger by Shin-ichiro Shirakura, an early advisor for Kyuranger[5] and was also included in a promotional poster for a hero meet and greet featuring Sixth Rangers.[6]
  • Gokaiger has classified Hyuuga as an Extra Hero, but his original classification as a Sixth Ranger[7] as well as his inclusion on devices that exclude Extra Rangers and Extra Heroes after Gokaiger's run[8] leaves his status up for debate.
