Darts Grumer (ダーツグルマー Dātsu Gurumā) is a dartboard-themed Kurumaju from the Great Space Invasion Running Team Hashiriyan.
History
At a closed bar somewhere in the city, Itasha decides to make the dartboard into her next Kurumaju, placing her Ignition Key into it to create the Darts Grumer. He then attacks the citizens by forcing them to play a game for Darts Grumer’s amusement until Jou revealed himself and asking Darts Grumer if he can take her place in the game. Darts Grumer agrees and Jou takes his position and aims, throwing the dart directly into Darts Grumer’s left eye, the monster is blinded and in pain as Jou uses this as an opportunity to save the civilians from being tortured and held captive. The Nejiretta overreact to their commander’s plight and all come to his aid, which allows the civilians time to escape. Jou then lures an enraged Darts Grumer away from them as he runs away into an unoccupied warehouse. Darts Grumer blocks Jou’s way forward and punches him, then picks him up, beating him and tossing him into a set of steel barrels. Darts Grumer is about to finish Jou off with a deadly dart attack, but the Boonboomger team arrives.
After transforming, Darts Grumer challenges the Boonboomgers to a game of darts and selects Bun Pink to be the first to play. Mira refuses, calling the villain stupid for trying to trick her, but she falls for it once Darts Grumer toys with her emotions by saying that she probably is unsure of her aim and is just pathetic. Mira gets irritated at his teasing and throws the dart, missing the bullseye, with her penalty “prize” being a rainstorm of metal pans continuously falling on her head. Ishiro is up next, understanding what the game is now and trying to shoot Darts Grumer’s bullseye with his Boonboom Handle gun, but Darts cheats by moving, causing the bullet to miss its target. His penalty prize is “snack time”, being constantly bombarded by exploding cream pies. Taiya is the last Ranger standing, with Darts promising to undo the punishments of the others if Taiya hits the bullseye. Taiya manages to hit the target but Darts was lying and chains him up in an electric chair, getting constantly shocked by high voltage that his suit can just barely protect Taiya from being killed. Darts gloats in victory and then decides to give his foes an extra special bonus present of explosive darts. Jou can’t bear seeing the Boonboomgers suffer, but he hears them them say they will never give up or lose to the evil dartboard, they know the road they take is dangerous but it makes it more interesting. Darts prepares to finish off the Rangers with his signature attack: the Darts Bomber, a giant energy construct of a dart that will kill the Boonboomgers if it hits.
Jou finds the will inside him to get up and stop Darts, saying that he understands what he was lacking now, he just wanted to look the part of a hero by being cool. He continues to try and stop Darts from executing the Boonboomgers despite the beating he is taking, he remembers he is just a police officer but a real hero doesn’t do their deeds for glory, they do it to keep people safe and protect them. Despite getting blasted by exploding darts, Jou keeps getting up and vows that the Boonboomgers will always be safe by his side. Taiya hears this and appreciates Jou being sincere about his intentions. Genba arrives with a package for Jou, a new type of changer made for him attached to an axe. Taiya says that Jou should be able to use it now, with Jou wiping the blood off his lips, getting up and transforming into the fourth Boonboomger, Bun Black.
Darts Grumer panics and tries to use the Darts Bomber attack to destroy the new Ranger and the other three all at once, but Jou deflects the giant dart with his Axe and stands in front of the Boonboomgers to shield them. Darts is sent flying by his own attack sent right back at him, which allows Jou time to check and see if everyone is okay. The four Boonboomgers do their first roll call together, adding a bit of nostalgic flair to the pose at the end, which irritates Darts who orders the Nejiretta to shoot them with their guns. After the group makes some quick work of some of the grunts, Darts tries to attack Taiya from behind, only to be foiled by Jou who reminds the dastardly dart thrower that he will always protect them. After dragging Darts to the quarry, Jou pushes his Axe into his foe’s belly and uses his boot wheels to hurl Darts forward. After dealing with some more Nejiretta, Jou slices an oncoming Darts Bomber in half and charges at Darts, remembering that the monster has a weak spot on his face, deflecting three Darts Bombers with his Axe changed into a sword and sending them back at Dart’s face. He then finishes Darts off with his attack: the Bakuage Rod Drive.
After Yeiyei's defeat, he ejects the Gassholin and revives Darts, with the Boonboomger team deciding to try out a new combination, becoming the dual Magnum gun wielding Boonboomger Robo Police. Darts tries to bombard them with explosive darts, but Boonboom Police under the driving control of Jou is able to shoot them down and dodge them. Darts is eventually headbutted and tries to rapidly fling multiple darts at Boonboom Police, but Jou uses the Bakuage Magnum: Unlimited Fire attack to destroy them all. The colliding projectiles create fireworks in the night sky and Darts is distracted by how pretty they are, allowing the team to finish the demented dartboard off with the Bakuage Magnum: Boonboom Crash finisher, which disables his ability to throw darts and the damage inflicted causes him to explode.
