- "Heatwave Hood is here! With my heatwaves, you shall have a fever & suffer!"
- ―Heatwave Hood's first words[src]
Heatwave Hood (陽炎頭巾 Kagerō Zukin, 23) is a very powerful Gorma Minion.
History[]
A Gorma who devoured Kujaku and Daigo, using them as hostages. He worked under Gara and his scheme was to kill all humans with his flame ability which would cause a fever that would eventually kill the victims if he wasn't destroyed.
He later trapped both Daigo and Kujaku inside of him with them being baked alive within him. Gara planned to kill him with his own blade to kill all three in one go but Ryo prevented this with his Heavenly Fire Star Blaze Destruction Wave.
Meanwhile, instead of giving up, Daigo decided to literally punch his way out. Heatwave Hood was eventually beheaded by Gara who hoped the explosion would kill Daigo and Kujaku but they escaped before he blew up.
Heatwave Hood somehow managed to grow giant so the Dairangers summoned their Mythical Qi Beasts and formed Dairen'Oh. Heatwave Hood was quickly killed by the Raging Hurricane Winds after they critically injured him with their Phantom Yamoto Line.
