Ganima Noshiagalda (ガニマ・ノシアガルダ Ganima Noshiagaruda) was a chimeric Status Quintuple Gold Gangler Monster from the Interdimensional Crime Group Gangler equipped with the Kishiryu from the Ryusoulgers. He was the leader of the Ganglers for a time, served as the main antagonist of Kishiryu Sentai Ryusoulger VS Lupinranger VS Patranger and was the final Gangler Monster.
History[]
Past[]
At some point, he was abducted and experimented on by Goche, having attached multiple safes on his body at a secret location. However, she met her end to the Lupinrangers and Patrangers before she could finish him, leaving him locked away and forgotten in his cell.
Ryusoulger VS Lupinranger VS Patranger[]
After a year, Ganima Noshiagalda is found by Kleon who was trying to find a new hideout. Yearning to be free, Kleon uses his negative energy to create a powerful Minosaur named the Griffon Minosaur that helps him break free from his cell. No longer feeling negative, and learning that the Gangler are all but gone, he uses this opportunity to become the new Gangler leader. Being brought up to date about current events by Kleon, Ganima seeks out the Kishiryu and succeeds in sealing DimeVolcano, Pachygaroo and Chibigaroo, MosaRex and Pterardon away in his safes to use their powers for his own. He first meets the Ryusoulgers when he captures Tyramigo but his overwhelming power is too much for them before he leaves. soon starts to wreck havoc on the city whilst also ordering Kleon and the Griffon Minosaur to find the Lupinranger’s and take their Dial Fighters away since he knows that they're the only ones who can free the Kishiryu from his safes. His concerns for them, however, completely vanishes after a battle with the Ryusoulger where he uses Tyramigo's power; it transforms all of his safes from standard to gold which not only increases his fighting power but now makes opening all the safes at once impossible (since a gold safe requires 2 Dial Fighters to open and he has 5, a total of 10 would be required from the Lupinrangers' total 8). He also knows that the Ryusoulger would have to kill their friends in order to stop them, something he knew would never happen. On the day of the final battle, the Ryusoulger try to use their finishing attacks on him but Koh stops it, letting Ganima attack them and laughs at them, figuring that freeing them would be impossible. The Lupinrangers and Patrangers soon join them, having finally found a way to open the safes. With the help of Noel, he creates new RyuSouls so Koh, Melto, and Asuna can become new Lupinrangers. With the extra Dial Fighters, they finally manage to open up the safes and free the Kishiryus, much to the anger of Ganima. With nothing holding them back, and as Kleon abandons the Ganglers, all three teams unleash their most powerful attacks on him and the Griffon Minosaur in the One Hit Soul Strike. All Ganima can do is complain about his ambitions not being fufilled before getting obliterated, finally bringing his reign to an end.
Saber + Zenkaiger: Superhero Senki[]
He would later return as one of the villains who would serve as a member of Asmodeus' army. Ganima Noshiagalda would survive long enough to see his master’s plans seemingly come to fruition until Touma Kamiyama had managed to help Shotaro himself regain his passion for drawing out superheroes which had, in turn, revived all of the Kamen Riders and the Super Sentai teams back into existence. Ultimately, the entire army itself would be wiped out by the full and combined might of Kamen Rider Saber as well as his fellow swordsmen and the Zenkaigers along with Twokaizer while being supported by each and every one of the Kamen Riders that came before Kamen Rider Saber as well as each and every one of the Sentai Red rangers who were the leaders of their respective Sentai teams that came before the Zenkaigers.

- Skilled Fighter: Ganima Noshiagalda was able to fight and overwhelm the Patrangers and Lupinrangers with his staff.

- Compression-Ganima Noshiagalda could compress the objects in case they were too large to fit by pressing his staff to them.
