Fast-Talking Wanderer (早口旅ガラス, Hayakuchi Tabigarasu, 29-30) is a microphone-themed Gorma Minion serving under Lieutenant Colonel Shadam.

History

A champion talker and the Gorma Tribe's best flute player. Fast-Talking Wanderer's signature weapons are bombs that detonate if one fails to say a tongue-twister. Fast-Talking Wanderer is sent to gather children with his fishing rod to slave for the Gorma to open a crack in the gates of Hell so that the Gorma Triumvirate can drink in that power emitted from it. Fast-Talking Wanderer is first seen as a very strange man in a funky hat confronting Shoji, Kou and Rin when they go looking for three previous children who he has kidnapped. One by one, he is able to capture the Dairangers' weaponry to leave them unable to meddle with his schemes. It is during his part in the plan that he exposes Kou as KibaRanger and allows Shadam to grow into a giant. TV STORY-Ep. 29: The Secret Inside Story of a Mother and Child's Tears

Once RyuseiOh defeats Shadam when the gates of Hell are closed, the Fast-Talking Wanderer stays behind as the Triumvirate fled to guard the stolen weapons. He throws a statue of a monk at Shoji but he successfully says the tongue twister and throws it back where it explodes and blasts down Fast-Talking Wanderer. He recovers and throws a scroll based bomb but Rin successfully throws it back at him which also blasts him down. Although he then uses his fishing rod to nab and throw around the Dairangers, Ryo summons Byakkoshinken and stabs him hard enough that he then goes flying back. Enraged, Fast-Talking Wanderer draws a sword and charges but the Dairangers summon the Chi-Power Bazooka (the only weapon not stolen by the Gorma due to just having been invented) and finish him off. Fast-Talking Wanderer has just enough time to reference Charge Of The Light Brigade before falling on his face and exploding. Due to not having his own Growth Bomb, Fast-Talking Wanderer does not become a giant. TV STORY-Ep. 30: The Deadly, Fast-Talking Wanderer
