This article is about a Ranger in Choshinsei Flashman. |
- "Red Flash!"
- ―Red Flash's roll call[src]
Jin (ジン Jin) is Red Flash (レッドフラッシュ Reddo Furasshu), leader of the Flashmen.
History[]
Flashman[]
Jin learned science on Flash Star, the main planet of the Flash solar system. He has great scientific mental powers and scientific knowledge including a wealth of knowledge dealing with machinery.
Kidnapped from Earth at age 3, he received a scar by an Alien Hunter in the process. Since he was the oldest of the five kidnapped, his memories about the kidnapping are the strongest, although still fuzzy. He is the strongest of the team and as the eldest, takes an older brother-like role, making him a strong leader.
Jin is also skilled in Kendo due to his adept swordsmanship.
Maskman[]
Red Flash was one of the seven previous Red Warriors who came to assist the Maskmen against a group of five revived villains. COMIC STORY- Hikari Sentai Maskman (manga)
Turboranger[]
Jin and his team joined up with the other nine Sentai to stand behind the newest Sentai, the Turborangers, as they faced off against the Hundred Boma Tribes. TV STORY-Ep. 1: The Great Gathering of 10 Sentai: Counting on You! Turboranger
Gaoranger vs. Super Sentai[]
Red Flash is among the Sentai warriors seen in clips when Yusuke Amamiya (Red Falcon) lectured Gaku Washio (GaoYellow) about the past Sentai sword experts, showing him that the true sword wasn't the sharpest, but the one that feeds on courage.
Led by his Liveman successor Red Falcon, he appeared as one of 24 previous Red Rangers in Gaoranger vs. Super Sentai together with fellow Red Rangers from his predecessors Akarenger to ChangeDragon to his successors from Red Mask to TimeRed. MOVIE STORY-Hyakuju Sentai Gaoranger vs. Super Sentai
Boukenger[]
Red Spirit[]
As the tenth Red, Red Flash's Red Warrior Spirit was embodied by AkaRed. MOVIE STORY-GoGo Sentai Boukenger vs. Super Sentai
Gokaiger[]
Legend War[]
Years later, Jin 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. After fighting against hundreds of Gormin and their Sugormin 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. The Red Flash powers are later used by Captain Marvelous via the Ranger Keys. TV STORY-Ep. 1: The Space Pirates Appear MOVIE STORY-Gokaiger Goseiger Super Sentai 199 Hero Great Battle
Farewell Space Pirates[]
After the Zangyack Empire was defeated by the Gokaigers, Marvelous returned the Ranger Keys to their original owners, thus Jin and his teammates have their powers again. TV STORY-Final Ep.: Farewell Space Pirates
Super Hero Taisen[]
Jin, alongside his team, among the majority of the Super Sentai heroes, was caught up in the "Super Hero Taisen" incident which eventually resulted in the Super Sentai teams and Kamen Riders joining forces to defeat both Dai-Zangyack and Dai-Shocker. During the final battle, he is seen fighting Me·Garima·Ba, Weather Dopant, and Zodomas. MOVIE STORY-Kamen Rider × Super Sentai: Super Hero Taisen
Super Hero Taisen Z[]
The Flashmen are seen alongside the Dekarangers, standing behind Space Sheriff Gavan Type G and Kamen Riders Fourze, Meteor, Decade and Super-1 as the three forces of super heroes confront Space Shocker. MOVIE STORY-Kamen Rider × Super Sentai × Space Sheriff: Super Hero Taisen Z
Zyuohger vs. Ninninger[]
Red Flash appeared as part of a conference of the first 38 Reds led by Red Falcon, whom addressed the Ninningers and Zyuohgers as the greater Super Sentai pantheon intervened to save them from defeat at the hands of the titanic Gillmarda. Empowering the Combination Nin Shuriken to form Wild Tousai Shuriken King, the first 38 Super Sentai further imbued their successors with the power to perform the Zyuoh Ninnin Super Sentai Burst, destroying 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[]
Jin joined the Super Sentai Strongest Battle as a member of Scientist 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 Extra Warrior Team off-screen or won against them and lost in the second round against Gilded Team off-screen.
Kikai Sentai Zenkaiger The Movie: Red Battle! All Sentai Rally!![]
Jin alongside with his Sentai Red Ranger predecessors appeared to help the Zenkaiger. MOVIE STORY-Kikai Sentai Zenkaiger The Movie: Red Battle! All Sentai Rally!!
Zenkaiger[]
A copy of Red Flash was summoned by Stacy through the Flashman Dark Sentai Gear to fight Zenkaizer after the copies of the Maskmen and Fivemen were beaten, but the Red Flash copy was beaten along with the other Flashmen copies by the Mashins that were summoned by Zenkaizer using the Kiramager Sentai Gear. TV STORY-No. 8-kai! Door to Door from Another World?!
Saber + Zenkaiger: Superhero Senki[]
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.
During the climatic final battle itself, he can be seen fighting alongside Kamen Rider Super-1, FiveRed, Kamen Rider Fourze and Shishi Red.

- ―Mobilates' Gokai Change announcement[src]
The Red Flash Ranger Key (レッドフラッシュレンジャーキー Reddo Furasshu Renjā Kī) is Jin'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 Red Flash Ranger Key was mainly used by Captain Marvelous (Gokai Red), who used it to fight as Red Flash. It was also used by Gai Ikari (Gokai Silver) and Joe Gibken (Gokai Blue) on one occasion each.
- When the Gokaigers became the Flashmen while fighting Action Commander Regaeru. TV STORY-Ep. 27: An Unusual Gokai Change
- Gai uses this key alongside all other Red keys after being merged with Captain Marvelous by Insarn. TV STORY-Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger: Let's Do This Goldenly! Roughly! 36 Round Gokai Change!!
- Joe became Red Flash in the first of two successive all-red Gokai Changes against Bangray's Doukoku Chimatsuri and Zet Shin. TV STORY-Ep. 29: The Monarch of the Monarchs
The Flashman Keys, along with all the Ranger Keys of the first 33 Super Sentai, were briefly taken by the Black Cross King and turned into Ranger puppets that were fought by the Gokaigers and the Goseigers. The puppet Flashmen fired their Rolling Vulcan alongside the Changeman, Maskmen, Livemen, and Turborangers, only to be swiftly defeated by the individual finisher attacks of the Gokaigers and Goseigers as they emerged from the resulting fireball. MOVIE STORY-Gokaiger Goseiger Super Sentai 199 Hero Great Battle
After Zangyack were finally defeated, the Gokaigers gave the Ranger Keys back to their rightful owners. Jin received his key and became Red Flash once more. TV STORY-Final Ep.: Farewell Space Pirates
Usage[]
The Legend Sentai Ressha (レジェンド戦隊レッシャー Rejendo Sentai Ressha) 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 Red Ressha. The ToQ Changer toy is shown to have sounds for Legend Ressha of all 37 previous Sentai.
The Flashman Ressha (フラッシュマンレッシャー Furasshuman Ressha) appears as a toyline-exclusive SG Ressha.
