Dora Titan (ドーラタイタン Dōra Taitan, 1 & 2) was a giant knight-themed Dora Monster and the first monster in Kyoryu Sentai Zyuranger.
History[]
Awoken after a 170 million-year exile on the planet Nemesis, Witch Bandora and her minions launch a full-scale assault on Tokyo. Part of this attack involves capturing the space shuttle that was used in the exploration of Nemesis and shrinking it down in size. Aboard the vessel are two children named Satoru Yoshimura and Yumiko Nishida who become Bandora's prisoners. In response, Barza revives the Zyurangers to repel the attack and rescue the children. It is during their first attempt to save the children that Bandora creates and unleashes Dora Titan who snatches away the shrunken ship before the heroes can save the children onboard. 
TV STORY-Ep. 1: The Birth
Satoru and Yumiko eventually end up in the possession of Dora Skelton who whisked them away to another dimension. This time, the Zyurangers are successful in rescuing the children and destroying Dora Skelton. However, before they can escape this realm, Dora Titan rips through the dimensional barrier and grabs Geki. The Zyurangers find themselves outmatched against their giant foe until Geki's Guardian Beast Tyrannosaurus emerges from the Earth. They square off in the countryside, wrestling arm to arm before Dora Titan throws off the Guardian Beasts. The Giant then pulls out its sword and slashes through it at impressive speeds but the Guardian Beasts slaps him down with a double slash from its tail. The Giant tries to make a comeback but is restrained by the arm and double kicked down once it breaks free. Geki then finishes off the Giant with the Tyrannosaurus' Tyranno Sonic attack, obliterating Dora Titan and reducing him to rubble which the Tyrannosaurus roars away. TV STORY-Ep. 2: The Revival
