- "Excitement, my style, to the limit of my will! Iron Will, GekiViolet! (紫激気、俺流、我が意を尽くす!アイアン・ウィル、ゲキバイオレット! Shigeki, oreryū, waga i wo tsukusu! Aian Wiru, Geki Baioretto!)"
- ―GekiViolet's roll call[src]
Gou Fukami (深見 ゴウ Fukami Gō) is GekiViolet (ゲキバイオレット Geki Baioretto), the fourth member of the Gekirangers, (as the first Additional Member) and a Fierce Beast Wolf-Fist (激獣ウルフ拳 Gekijū Urufuken) user.
History[]
Gekiranger[]
Gou is the older brother of Retsu Fukami. He is very protective of Retsu's well-being since their parents died and they spent their childhood in a church. It was there that Gou forced Retsu to promise never to take on the Beast-Fists before leaving to face Rio and never to be seen again. It was originally believed that Gou had been killed by Rio. But in reality, Gou used an imperfect form of the forbidden Geki Waza, in an attempt to defeat Rio the way the Fist Sages had done to seal the Fist Demons long ago. But it failed and Gou had been wandering for fifteen years in his resulting werewolf form which he could not control, nor does he have any recollection of what he was doing during that time. Once regaining his human form, Gou was shocked to find the changes that occurred. He was also a bit vexed to learn that Retsu disobeyed him and took up Fierce Beast-Fist.
After much soul searching and cajoling by the others, he agrees to become GekiViolet and eventually overcome the beast within him, thanks to Fierce Beast Fly-Fist Bae. However, Gou still desires to defeat Rio and prove himself as his rival, holding some animosity towards Jan Kandou whom Rio sees as a rival, due to being the son of his mentor, Dan Kandou. But once he fails a second time to defeat Rio after mastering the strongest Gekiwaza, Gou accepts that he can't be Rio's rival and glad to see him joining up with them in the fight again Long.
During the final battle, Gou is amongst the other Fierce Beast Fist warriors, including the Fist Sages, keeping Long at bay until Jan, Ran Uzaki, and Retsu Fukami return. He watches as his younger brother, Retsu, along with Jan and Ran, defeat Long and seals his powers. After the battle is over, Gou sets off on his own journey with Bae at his side to uncover what he did were as a werewolf. Jan meets him along the way and gives him a final farewell before the two go their separate ways.
Using his Violet Fierce Ki to a degree, Gou can summon GekiTiger and GekiJaguar and control Beast-Fist Giant GekiTohja Wolf on his own.

He is seen fighting Long and Mole Imagin. MOVIE STORY-Kamen Rider × Super Sentai: Super Hero Taisen
Zyuohger vs. Ninninger[]
GekiViolet appeared with his team among the first 38 Super Sentai whom collectively empowered Wild Tousai Shuriken King in its fight against the titanic Gillmarda, granting the Ninningers and Zyuohgers the power to perform the Zyuoh Ninnin Super Sentai Burst which destroyed Gillmarda with the combined power of all 40 Super Sentai. MOVIE STORY-Doubutsu Sentai Zyuohger vs. Ninninger: Message from the Future from Super Sentai
Super Sentai Strongest Battle[]
Gou joined the Super Sentai Strongest Battle as a member of Extra Warrior Team. It’s unknown whether he participated in any of the matches, but his team lost the competition either in the first round against the Scientist Team offscreen or won against them and lost in the second round against Gilded Team offscreen.
Personality[]
Gou is impulsive and very strict, unlike Retsu. But he is not as cold as his younger brother. He can be compassionate and caring at times. He cares for his teammates deeply, as well as his brother. Though he and Retsu argue with each other at times, they love each other a lot and are concerned about each other's well being.
He and Ken initially had a disliking towards each other. However, Gou soon tries to warm up to Ken and even helps Ken rescue his sister. He also formed a close friendship with Jan during the course of the series.
Though he is of the Fierce Beast Fist, Gou lacks a passion for justice and fights only for himself. This resulted in Gou mastering a personal and dangerous form of Fierce Ki that he developed himself, called Violet Fierce Ki (

Attacks[]
Wolf-Fist Gekiwaza[]
These Gekiwaza used by Gou are his personal Muay Thai techniques, titled his "Fukami-style" and are powered by his Violet Fierce Ki.
- Savage-Savage Elbow (蛮蛮肘 Ban Ban Chū): GekiViolet elbows the opponent's forehead.
- Super Savage-Savage Elbow (超蛮蛮肘 Chō Ban Ban Chū): GekiViolet elbows the opponent's forehead from a jump.
- Wolf-Wolf Kick (狼狼蹴 Rō Rō Shū): GekiViolet leaps into the air and kicks the opponent upside their head.
- Hard-Hard Attack (剛剛撃 Gō Gō Geki): GekiViolet summons a Muay Thai arena using the GongChanger which he uses to limit their movements while he jumps around attacking them from off the ropes.
- Rigid-Rigid Fist (厳厳拳 Gon Gon Ken): GekiViolet channels Violet Fierce Ki through the GongChanger and either punches or shoots a blast of Violet Fierce Ki with power matching that of the GekiBazooka.
- Rise-Rise Fist (昇昇拳 Shō Shō Ken): GekiViolet channels Violet Fierce Ki through the GongChanger and uppercuts his opponent.
- Wheel-Wheel Fist (輪輪拳 Rin Rin Ken): GekiViolet channels fierce Violet Fierce Ki through the GongChanger and uppercuts, creating a wheel of Violet Fierce Ki that smashes into the opponent.
- Wolf-Wolf Bullet (狼狼弾 Rō Rō Dan): GekiWolf jumps at the enemy in a spinning attack, slashing with its bladed tail.
Modified Gekiwaza[]
- Come-Come Beast (来来獣 Rai Rai Jū): GekiViolet uses this to summon GekiWolf. He has modified it to summon duplicates of GekiTiger and GekiJaguar. This technique is rather different from the other Gekiranger who use it to summon all three of each of their personal Gekibeasts.
[]
- Super Brother Attack (スーパーブラザー撃 Sūpā Burazā Geki): Super GekiBlue and GekiViolet's attack.
- Five Combined Work (五合業 Go Gō Gō): A Gekiwaza which five Gekirangers rush to an opponent while making GekiYellow into a head and spouting each Ki.
- Beast-Beast Full-Body Change (獣獣全身変 Jū Jū Zenshin Hen): A forbidden Gekiwaza that transforms a user of the Fierce Beast-Fist into an anthropomorphic animal form relating to his/her fighting style, becoming much stronger. This Gekiwaza was used long ago by the Fist Sages to defeat the Fist Demons, assuming their current forms as a result. Bae and Gou also used this move in their respective battles prior to the series. However, due to an imperfect aspect while performing the Gekiwaza, the two each ended up in a flawed form, though only Gou has been able to regain his original human form.
Rhinoceros-Fist Gekiwaza[]
- Heaven and Earth Diaster Strike (天地転変打 Tenchi Tenben Da): The most powerful Gekiwaza, mastered by Bruce Ee, it's very power defies the laws of nature. Through Michelle Peng, Gou mastered the Gekiwaza with intent to use on Rio in vain.

Behind the Scenes[]
Portrayal[]
- Gou Fukami is portrayed by Riki Miura (三浦 力 Miura Riki), who later portrayed Kai Hyuga in Space Sheriff Gavan: The Movie. As GekiViolet, his suit actor was Riichi Seike (清家 利一 Seike Riichi).
- In the Korean dub of Gekiranger entitled Power Rangers Wild Spirits, which aired in South Korea, Gou Fukami keeps his name, while his Ranger designation is WildViolet.
Design[]
Etymology[]
- His name, Gou Fukami, appears to be a pun referencing the phrase "Let's Go." It is made by combining the given names of Fukami Brothers.
Ranger Key[]
- "Gekiranger!"
- ―Mobilates' Gokai Change announcement[src]
The GekiViolet Ranger Key (ゲキバイオレットレンジャーキー Geki Baioretto Renjā Kī) is Gou Fukami's personal Ranger Key and what became of his powers after he along with the rest of the 34 Super Sentai sacrificed their powers to end the Great Legend War.
This key along with the majority of the Ranger Keys were collected by the Red Pirates and later used by the Gokaigers. The GekiViolet Ranger Key was mainly used by Don Dogoier (Gokai Green), who used it to fight as GekiViolet.
- When the Gokaigers (bar Joe) became the Gekirangers while fighting Action Commander Zodomas' Sugormin. TV STORY-Ep. 4: What are Friends For?
- When the Gokaigers became the Gekirangers in their fight with Cosmic Kenpo Master Pachacamac XIII. TV STORY-Ep. 7: Niki-Niki! Kenpo Lesson
- When the Gokaigers became the Gekirangers while fighting Action Commander Zakyura. TV STORY-Ep. 33: Iiiit's a Hero!!
After Zangyack were finally defeated, the Gokaigers gave the Ranger Keys back to their rightful owners. It is presumed that Gou received his key and became GekiViolet once more.
Usage[]
Notes[]
- Gou received the nickname "523" (Go-Ni-San) in Japan, as he was most often referred to in the show as "nii-san" (older brother) by Retsu.
- Geki Violet is the first heroic violet Sentai Ranger.
- The decision to choose violet as the color was influenced by Toei Company deciding to have Retsu Fukami's brother for the new Ranger. In turn, Bandai selected violet as the closest color to blue.[1]
- He is the only Gekiranger that does not wear a pair of GekiChangers. This is due to his Violet Fierce Qi not being compatible with the Geki Changers.
- He is the only member that does not use any handheld weapons, fighting entirely with punches and kicks.
- Gou is the only student associated with Master Sha-Fu in any way that does not have a feline-theme.
