Gai Ikari (伊狩鎧, Ikari Gai) is Gokai Silver (ゴーカイシルバー, Gōkai Shirubā), the Sixth Ranger of the Gokaigers. He is the only Earthling on the team and primarily utilizes the powers of the 6th Sentai Warriors of the past.

History[]

Early Life[]

Compared to the other Gokaigers, little is known about his life before he joined the Super Sentai. However, he has revealed that because of his parents, he had to move a lot as a kid. Combined with his outgoing personality and positive attitude, this enabled him to make many friends across many cities.

Becoming a Hero[]

Gai is an Earthling teenager and a self-professed Super Sentai fanboy. After he is injured saving a little girl from getting hit by a car, he was visited by the spirits of three deceased 6th Rangers: DragonRanger, TimeFire, and AbareKiller. Having witnessed his bravery, they give him the Gokai Cellular, the GokaiSilver Ranger Key, and the Greater Powers of the Abarangers, Zyurangers and Timerangers. After recovering, Gai recognized how similar his ranger form was to the Gokaigers and went searching for them, hoping to join their team. He also attempted to discover the Greater Powers he recieved, but he was unable to since he only had the GokaiSilver Ranger Key. TV STORY-Ep. 18: The Big Abare with the Dinosaur Robot Drill

In the aftermath of the Gokaigers' team up with the Goseigers and battle with the Black Cross King, Gai as Gokai Silver watched the Gokai Galleon and gave his respect. MOVIE STORY-Gokaiger Goseiger Super Sentai 199 Hero Great Battle

Meeting the Gokaigers[]

Upon meeting the Gokaigers, he attempts to impress them and eventually succeeds by transforming and defeating the latest Action Commander. TV STORY-Ep. 17: The Amazing Silver-Colored Man Gai is later taken back to the Gokai Galleon and questioned about his origin and the Greater Powers in his possession. Gai reveals that he has been unable to get the Greater Powers to reveal themselves and that he would need the DragonRanger, TimeFire, and AbareKiller ranger keys to make them work. Marvelous then confiscates his Gokai Cellular and Gokai Silver Ranger Key until he can prove that he has something that Marvelous doesn't. He later impresses Marvelous by going into battle without his Gokai Silver powers. Unlike the Gokaigers, Gai isn't out to find the Greater Powers; he is out to save mankind and destroy the Zangyack, something Marvelous finds to be an interesting new concept. Because of this, Marvelous and the Gokaigers decide to accept him as a pirate apprentice. TV STORY-Ep. 18: The Big Abare with the Dinosaur Robot Drill

Bounty[]

Gai's initial Zangyack bounty is Z=100,000, which leaves Don dismayed that the newcomer already had a bounty that was twenty times his. TV STORY-Ep. 18: The Big Abare with the Dinosaur Robot Drill Due to his role in the death of Warz Gill, his bounty was increased to Z=300,000. TV STORY-Ep. 39: Why? We're High School Students.

Imitations[]

Who is the real Gokai Silver? — Gokai Silver vs. Gokai Silver.

The shape-shifting monster Vannain took the form of Gokai Silver while fighting with Gai. The Gokaigers were confused as to which one was which, but Luka had an idea. The Gokaigers changed into the Megarangers, with the real Gokai Silver becoming MegaSilver, leaving Vannain exposed as the fake. TV STORY-Ep. 34: Dream Comes True

Super Hero Taisen[]

Gai, alongside his team, among the majority of the Super Sentai heroes, was caught up in the "Super Hero Taisen" incident when Marvelous betrayed the Gokaigers and became the Emperor of Dai-Zangyack to claim the Greater Power of the Kamen Riders. TV STORY-Kamen Rider × Super Sentai: Super Hero Taisen

Gai, along with Joe, Don, Luka and Ahim, arrive in the nick of time to save Kamen Rider Fourze from Marvelous, but not enough time to save his fellow Rider Kamen Rider Meteor. When they demand to know why Marvelous is doing what he is doing, he tells them that it's to save the Super Sentai by eradicating the Kamen Riders, revealing that the perpetrator, Kamen Rider Decade, had slain the Gorengers just as he had done to the Seven Legendary Riders. When Tsukasa and Dai-Shocker attack the Tokumei Sentai Go-Busters, the five Gokaigers confront them there, with Gai pointing out that Kamen Riders are heroes of justice, but makes no mention of Tsukasa's time with the Shinkengers. Tsukasa's answer is the opposite of Marvelous': to save the Riders, he must kill the Sentai. He, then, seemingly kills Gai, Ahim and Luka.

When Marvelous and Tsukasa seemingly kill Joe and Daiki Kaito, the two learn that Gai, Luka, and Ahim were still alive before being confronted by Kamen Rider OOO, learning that there's more to this than what they thought. Once Marvelous and Tsukasa are seemingly killed, allowing Bio Hunter Silva and Doctor G to reveal their plan to unite the Gigant Horse and Final Crisis into Big Machine and take over the worlds, the two heroes reveal their ruse and allow the heroes seemingly killed to return. During the final fight, Red1 gives Gai a brief peptalk, telling him to show Silva what a real Silver can do. In response, Eiji tosses the Gokaigers some of his Core Medals, Gai turning them into the Kamen Rider OOO Ranger Keys and becoming Kamen Rider OOO Sagohzo Combo before loading the Ranger Keys into the GokaiGalleon Buster and destroying Silva with the blast. He's last seen watching the reunions with Eiji and Hina and Tsukasa and Kaito before joining Fourze and the Go-Busters in performing Fourze's trademark "Uchuu Kita!" stance. MOVIE STORY-Kamen Rider × Super Sentai: Super Hero Taisen

Go-Busters vs. Gokaiger[]

Due to being overrun, Gai and Navi were forced to return to Earth. When his teammates returned to Earth, he joined them in battle. But was confused why they were fighting the Go Busters. Gai was ordered to provide Ranger Keys to the others to transform into Goggle V and Timeranger to make a show and Go Busters Powered Morphin'd to follow up, until Enter showed up with four Phantom Ranger Keys, excavating the remaining Red Phantom Ranger Key. Unexpectedly, the Gather of the keys created a portal, transferring Gai, Yoko, Gorisaki, J, and the Gokaigers to various time periods.

Gai was transferred to Japan at the Edo period and eventually met up with Yoko and J, who were also sent over the same place. Find out unable to contact with their allies, J suggested to write a letter and find someone who can pass it to the future, though Yoko points out that there is no one who is capable to do so, until Gai remembers someone who they can rely on, a clan who owns a fellow Super Sentai—the Shiba.

Super Hero Taisen Z[]

During the events of Super Hero Taisen Z, Gai makes his first appearance breaking up a sparing match against Daigo Kiryu and Haruto Soma. After doing so, he teams up with Yoko Usami (Yellow Buster), Geki Jumonji (Space Sheriff Gavan Type G), and Kamen Rider Beast (Kamen Rider Beast) to gather as many other super heroes as possible to fight against Space Shocker. During the fight, he reunites with the Gokaigers. MOVIE STORY-Kamen Rider × Super Sentai × Space Sheriff: Super Hero Taisen Z

When Joe, Luka, Don, and Ahim fought against Sela, Leo, Tusk, and Amu, Gai stopped them after he was challenged by Misao and explained to them that keeping the Zyuohgers busy didn't mean fighting them. He, alongside the four Gokaigers explained to the Zyuohgers about the Super Sentai legacy and they are their seniors, the 35th Super Sentai while Zyuohger is the 40th.

Gai, Joe, Luka, Don, and Ahim later joined Marvelous and Zyuohgers to fight the copy of Sentai's last opponents from Marvelous's memory because of Bangray. Gai also became the victim for his memory to be used for calling Gokdos Gill after the fight. He rode on the Misao's seat inside Wild Tousai King. Gai and the rest of Gokaigers bid farewell after the match and told the Zyuohgers that they had returned the Ranger Keys too to the right owners while forgetting that Navi was still in Yamato's home.

Twokaizer × Gokaiger[]

Not long after the event of Zenkaiger, Kirameiger, and Senpaiger, Gai is ordered by Marvelous to investigate the monster who charms Ahim to marry him. Gai goes undercover as Luka.

Personality[]

Gai can be described as enthusiastic and can have a bit of theatricality, examples can be his first transfomation where he describes his team's five colors in various ways in the order of Gorenger ending with silver confetti and streamers popping up behind him as he announces his own color, or when he became the merged Go-On Wings or Gokai Christmas. However, he takes being a Gokaiger seriously and also has knowledge of all 34 of the previous Super Sentai Teams.

Years after no more information about Gokaigers, Gai is revealed to keep on studying the next generation of Super Sentai. Able to understand the gesture of the Sentai after Gokaigers and secretly power up so he will be able to Gokai Change into the next 6th Rangers with an additional attachment for his Gokai Cellular. Unfortunately, being a senpai of the next generation doesn't change his goofy personality even a bit.

Forms[]
