The Do-or-Die New Coupling Fusion (決死の新連結合体 Kesshi no Shin Renketsu Gattai) is the twelfth episode of Kyukyu Sentai GoGoFive. It is the conclusion of the strengthened Magma Golem arc and features the first appearance of the GoLiners' combat mode: Grand Liner.
Synopsis[]
With Victory Robo crushed by two strengthened Saima Beasts, GoGoFive must protect the people trapped by the volcano while Mondo makes a move to help his children with an untested new weapon.
Plot[]
Hellgerus and Magma Golem continue to damage VictoryRobo. They cleave open the earth, and VictoryRobo falls inside. Mint struggles to reach GoGoV. Zylpheeza claims victory.
The members of GoGoV escape to the mountains. However, the nearby volcano erupts, spewing fireballs all over the landscape. GoGoV narrowly dodge one. They rush to take refuge in the Volcano Research Lab, where they find the riders of the bus line and the research staff. Matsuri meets Professor Igarashi and delivers Mondo's energy reader. Igarashi reveals that she knew GoGoV as babies, as well as their mother, who was her rival.
Matoi asks the research staff to evacuate, but they want to stay to transmit data to save lives in the city. GoGoV cannot decide what to do. Nagare reveals that VictoryRobo still has trace amounts of energy left. However, the research lab is attacked by Imps.
Back at the Tatsumi household, Kyoko discovers the code to reach the command center. She comforts Mondo. Mint reestablishes communications. Mondo demands that GoGoV return, but they decline. GoGoV fight their way to the gorge and board VictoryRobo. VictoryRobo hops out of the ravine. Professor Igarashi supports Mondo over the comm lines. Kyoko inquires about a possible suggestion Mondo had floated. Mint, Mondo, and Kyoko upgrade the GoLiners.
GoGoV disassembles VictoryRobo and store the 99 Machines in the GoLiners. The city roads form a launch ramp, sending the GoLiners into the sky so they can transform into Grand Liner. Mondo explains that GrandLiner has electricity coursing through it, hence the need for GoGoV's durability training. GrandLiner destroys Magma Golem with its shoulder guns and Hellgerus with its fist blasters. The volcano is still erupting, so GrandLiner fires cooling missiles to cool down the mountain. Professor Igarashi flirts with Mondo.
Grandiene is weakened. Her children realize she is the one who empowered Magma Golem.
GoGoV thank the bank robber for his rescue efforts. He submits to arrest.

Errors[]
- Flashback footage is used from last episode's durability training; however, in the footage, Matsuri/GoPink is there despite being absent due to the bus plot.
- It is stated that the GoLiners are in Bay Area 55 due to needing repairs, despite the GoLiners having been used last episode to transport the 99 Machines to the mountainside. It is thus unknown exactly how they sustained damage.
