History[]
Gekiranger[]
The son of Dan Kandou, Jan was the sole surviving member of the nearby village that was destroyed by Long. Long had intended to kill Jan in order to prevent Rio from fighting him, since Rio would undoubtedly see Jan as a potential rival since Dan is his father. Jan's mother sacrificed herself to save Jan by taking a fatal blow from Long and at the same time pushing Jan off a cliff into a raging river. The shock left Jan with amnesia and he survived by living with tigers in the wild.
Because of his lineage, his senses have been sharply enhanced to feel qi like Sha-Fu, who scouted Jan as he personifies the "Body" (体,Tai, also pronounced as Karada) of a Gekiranger: Resistance to most forms of pain. This selection is strengthened when Jan emits Fierce Ki while giving off a "Tiger's Roar" when the Confrontation Beast-Fist Akugata began to attack. Although at first, he doesn't understand certain concepts or training, he eventually picks up and learns about it at a fairly high pace. He does not know very many common words so he sometimes describes things with words such as "niki-niki", "zowa-zowa", "waki-waki", his own personal "Jan-ish" language.
As he was raised by animals, he doesn't know and has to learn about the "Heart". Jan is eventually labeled as Rio's rival after witnessing the display of power used to stop his own attack. He became Sharkie Chan's first student of the Fierce Beast Shark-Fist (激獣シャーク拳,Gekijū Shākuken) sword-fighting style. Though Jan possesses the Extreme Ki (過激気,Kageki), he is unable to fully use it in his first fight with Rio.
Jan competes with Gorrie Yen in a coin-stacking competition to improve his "Heart" to try to achieve the Extreme Ki, but he fails because when he tells Gorie that he practices Fierce Beast-Fist to become stronger, Gorrie says that Jan is no better than Rio for following a similar ideology. TV STORY-Lesson 20: Gicho-Gicho! Triangle Opposing Fight Yet, once Jan realizes that his reason is to fight in order to protect others, Jan is able to transform into Super GekiRed (スーパーゲキレッド,Sūpā Geki Reddo), using the Fierce Beast Gorilla-Fist (激獣ゴリラ拳,Gekijū Goriraken) style and is the "Extremely Unbreakable Body" (「過激にアンブレイカブル・ボディ」,Kageki ni Anbureikaburu Bodi). TV STORY-Lesson 21: Biki-Biki-Biki-Biki! Kageki in Extreme Ki
After the Gekirangers, Rio and Mele are exposed to Juken God SaiDain's Beast Power Bloom, Jan is the first among the Gekirangers to realize how much stronger they all have become, pushing back Maku by himself as well as utilizing the Extreme Ki Hard Diamond technique by himself.
At first, Jan decides that he can't fight anymore after learning the truth behind his relation to Rio and Dan, but learning more about his family with Sha-Fu's help enables Jan to resume his role as a Gekiranger, making an enemy out of Long. He and Rio have their destined battle, with Jan the victor until he realizes that he is not really fighting Rio, but something else entirely.
When Jan regains his memories, he vows to make Long pay for what he did to his friends and family, managing to beat sense into Rio and give him a path of his own as they both save Mele and join forces in fighting their mutual enemy. After Long's defeat, Jan invites both Rio and Mele to SCRTC, despite protests from both Ran Uzaki and Retsu Fukami.
When both Rio and Mele decide to undergo the Fist Judgment to cleanse themselves of their sins while in the Confrontation Beast Hall, Jan tries to talk the both of them out of it in vain, learning later that Rio and Mele intended to die. In memory of Rio's final act, Jan wears the Fist Demons' Bracelet and vows to destroy Long once and for all.
During the final battle, after being infused with Maku's Confrontation Ki, Jan is taken to an astral Confrontation Beast Hall along with Ran and Retsu, where they are met by Rio and Mele. It is there that Jan masters the Confrontation Beast Bear-Fist (臨獣ベアー拳,Rinjū Beāken) style, unifying both Fierce and Confrontation Beast Styles.
With his and the others' new found skills, he goes on to defeat Long, sealing him in a small ball, which Jan keeps on his person to ensure that Long's power never falls into the wrong hands. He then leaves SCRTC to travel the world to find the next generation of Beast-Fist fighters, saying his final farewells to his comrades. While teaching the Beast Fist to kids in Hong Kong, he runs into a boy who looks similar to Rio and decides to take him under his wing.
Jan returned again from his trip to celebrate Natsume's birthday as he arrived he was seen fighting against Nunchuck Banki immediately Ran and Retsu arrived to assist him in his fight and later they were send to another Dimension when Go-Ongers arrived. After defeating Meka and sealing Long again, the two teams celebrate Natsume's birthday with a party, during which they decide to commemorate that same day as Jan's own birthday since he does not know his actual date of birth.

Gokaiger[]
Legend War[]
A few years later, Jan fought alongside not only his own team, but every single Sentai Ranger in existence, against the Empire of Zangyack when it attacked the Earth in the Great Legend War. In the Great Legend War, he was seen fighting alongside fellow martial artist Ryo of the Heavenly Fire Star, taking down Gomin. After fighting against hundreds of Gomin and their Sugomin commanders. Akarenger noticed the fleet moving towards them, he gathered all the Rangers together and gave them the order to sacrifice their powers to wipe out the first invasion's armada. TV STORY-Ep. 1: The Space Pirates AppearMOVIE STORY-Gokaiger Goseiger Super Sentai 199 Hero Great Battle
The Tiger's Child[]
Eventually, the Gokaigers got a clue to the great treasure they have been searching for leading them to look for the "tiger's child." After the battle with Master Pachacamac XIII, Doc and Ahim meet with the traveling teacher while he was teaching his students how to use the Jyuken Fists (still wearing and guarding the Dogokugan on his neck). It wasn't until after they trained with him that they learned he was the "tiger's child" they were looking for with one of Jan's students referring to him as GekiRed. He watched the giant monster battle and witnesses the Gokaiger utilizing the Gekirangers' Greater Power. Master Sha-Fu then appears and asks if there was anymore he could have taught them. Jan tells him that they'll be fine, as they understand that wanting to become stronger is a sign of being stronger already. He then goes off and says he has to train more so he can catch up with them. TV STORY-Ep. 7: Niki-Niki! Kenpo Lesson
Farewell Space Pirates[]
After the Zangyack Empire was defeated by the Gokaigers, Marvelous returned the Ranger Keys to their original owners. It is assumed Jan and his teammates have their powers once again. TV STORY-Final Ep.: Farewell Space Pirates
Though he was seemingly erased alongside his team as a result of Asmodeus’ manipulations, he and, presumably, his corresponding team were restored back into existence once Touma Kamiyama had helped Shotaro regained his passion in drawing out the superheroes that he wants to draw out.
Jan is a feral child who was raised by the tigers deep within the forest near the Beast Origin Village. Unlike his teammates he was initially naive, but quite active due to him being raised in the forest. However as the series progresses, he becomes more mature and sensible.
Jan has an overall friendly and playful personality, but can be quite stubborn at times. He and Retsu are seen to be arguing with each other at times, but deep down they care for each other. And during the course of the series, they eventually get along better.
Jan really cares for children as it is seen when he tried to stand up for a bullied kid from Natsume's class. He is also on good terms with Miki's daughter Natsume. He also formed a close friendship with Gou.
Jan has a peculiar way of speaking, using onomatopoeia-like words to describe things and his emotions. Some are common Japanese onomatopoeic or mimetic terms, such as "mera mera" (the sound of flaming up), or corruptions of words or phrases like "seisei doudou" (fair and square) becoming "sei-sei de dou-dou". Japanese fans refer to his vocabulary as "Jan-go" (ジャン語,"Jan-go")- "Jan Speak".
These are techniques used uniquely by Jan or with other Gekiranger

(豚の角煮,Buta no Kaku Ni), which is the name of the dish that Natsume was preparing for him when he learned how to be patient, but this irritated Ran and Retsu, so he eventually stopped doing so. If there is insufficient Ki, the cat head will close back up automatically, as shown in a Beast Arts Academy demonstration.

Etymology[]
Jan: ジャン (Jan), a playful nod to the phonetic word “Jump,” adds energy, movement, and excitement. In fact the trio's name is a pun of "Let's, Run and Jump."[1]
Kando: 漢堂 (Kandō) is the Chinese transliteration for "Hangtang" which translates to “Hall of the Han,” referring to the Han dynasty which represent cultural heritage, strength, and tradition, it can also evoke the idea of martial strength or heroism.
The GekiRed Ranger Key (ゲキレッドレンジャーキー,Geki Reddo Renjā Kī) is Jan Kandou'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 GekiRed Ranger Key was mainly used by Captain Marvelous (Gokai Red), who used it to fight as GekiRed. It was also used by Luka Millfy (Gokai Yellow) and Ahim de Famille (Gokai Pink) on two occasions each, and Gai Ikari (Gokai Silver) on one occasion.
When the Gokaigers (bar Don) became the Gekirangers in order to use the Fierce Ki Infusion against Action Commander Shieldon in a vein attempt to penetrate his shield. TV STORY-Ep. 32: One Power
With 12 usages throughout the Gokaigers' appearances, this makes the GekiRed Ranger Key the most used Ranger Key out of GokaiSilver's hybrid keys, and the only one to be used during every major return of the Gokaigers.
After Zangyack were finally defeated, the Gokaigers gave the Ranger Keys back to their rightful owners. Jan received his key and became GekiRed once more. TV STORY-Final Ep.: Farewell Space Pirates
Out of all the Red Ranger Keys, the GekiRed Key is the most utilized Ranger Key by the female Gokaigers, with the other being the MagiRed Ranger Key.
The Super Sentai Zyudenchi (スーパー戦隊獣電池,Sūpā Sentai Jūdenchi, Super Squadron Beast Batteries), alternatively named Legend Sentai Zyudenchi (レジェンド戦隊獣電池,Rejendo Sentai Jūdenchi) in the toyline, are a special line of Zyudenchi that contain the likeness of the Sentai Teams before Kyoryuger (represented by the main Reds).
The Legend Sentai Ressha (レジェンド戦隊レッシャー,Rejendo Sentai Resshā) are Ressha based on the mecha, specifically those belonging to the Red heroes, of the ToQgers' preceding Super Sentai teams. They can form a unique combination of ToQ-Oh reminiscent of past Sentai Robos by switching with RedRessha. The ToQChanger toy is shown to have sounds for Legend Ressha of all 37 previous Sentai.
The Gekiranger Ressha (ゲキレンジャーレッシャー,Gekirenjā Resshā) ultimately exists only as an SG Ressha. Had an actual Gekiranger Ressha exist, it likely would have been based off of GekiRed's innate GekiBeast GekiTiger, which could then change out with RedRessha to form ToQ-Oh GekiTohja.
The Dark Gekiranger Gear (ゲキレンジャーギア,Gekirenjā Gia) is one of many Dark Sentai Gears used by Stacaesar. In particular, it can summon GekiTouja and a copy of Super GekiRed when used by Stacaesar Kyoka.
Gekiranger Avataro Gear (ゲキレンジャーアバタロウギア,Gekirenjā Abatarō Gia) - An Avataro Gear that could be used by only Don Momotaro, Saru Brother, and Oni Sister to transform into their respective Gekiranger counterparts, with Don Momotaro's counterpart being GekiRed.
Gekiranger Ring (ゲキレンジャーリング,Gekirenjā Ringu) - A Sentai Ring based on the Gekirangers, but most especially based on GekiRed. It was used by Universe Warrior GekiRed until their defeat at the hands of Kuon/Ring Hunter Garyudo some time offscreen. It is currently in the possession of Mashiro Kumade/GozyuPolar as the Gekiranger Polar Ring, after Mashiro gained the Ring following a clash between him and Garyudo trading ownership of the Ninninger and Gekiranger Rings. TV STORY-Ep. 19: WhiteBurn with Two Hearts!
It was used by Kuon/Garyudo during a battle with the Gozyugers along with the J.A.K.Q. Dengekitai and Denziman Rings to summon a copy of GekiRed, which battled Ryugi Bakugami/GozyuTyranno, Kinjiro Takehara/GozyuEagle and Hoeru Tono/GozyuWolf until it was defeated by GozyuWolf using his newly obtained WolfDecalibur50.
Gekiranger Polar Ring (ゲキレンジャーポーラーリング,Gekirenjā Pōrā Ringu) - A Polar Ring based on the Gekirangers, but most especially based on GekiRed. As with all Polar Rings, the Gekiranger Polar Ring had been reconfigured from the original Gekiranger Ring by Mashiro Kumade/GozyuPolar.
Most sources romanize his name as "Jan", though once, according to the computer display at the beginning of the Gekiranger movie, it is romanized as "Jyan".
