- "DynaYellow!"
- ―DynaYellow's roll call[src]
Kosaku Nango (南郷 耕作 Nangō Kōsaku) is a nature lover from Kyushu who dreams to improve plant and farm breeds, aiming to develop new foods and flowers. He is able to transform into DynaYellow (ダイナイエロー Daina Ierō) of the Dynamen.
History[]
Dynaman[]
Becoming a Dynaman[]
Kosaku is first seen on a bridge riding his car, seeing two people on a motorcycle chasing an abduction truck. Later in an empty place, he and another man join the two people fighting some henchmen before the fifth man named Ryu Hoshikawa also joins. The five fight against the henchmen, with Kosaku dropping one at a desert. Later the henchmen reveal themselves as Tail Soldiers, while a mysterious creature who adresses himself as Crab Evo makes his presence known. Kosaku and the others do not have much power to fight them and get thrown under a cliff.
Some times later, Kosaku alongside the four people arrive safely into the Yumeno Invention Center to fulfill a request about each one's invention. The five are greeted by Kendo Robo, and later Kyutaro Yumeno with his sweet potato-powered train. Dr. Yumeno then takes them to the underground base called Dyna Station. They are explained about Tailed-People Clan Jashinka Empire before being given each one a Dyna Brace. They change into Dynamen (with Kosaku as DynaYellow) and take on DyJupiter as ordered by Dr. Yumeno.
After DyJupiter launch Dyna Missiles into the Jashinka base and Gizmosquitos, the Dynamen greet Prince Megiddo and his army, and the two sides have a fight. The Dynamen finish the Tail Soldiers and DynaRed slashes one of Prince Megiddo's tail, before they finish Crab Evo with Super Dynamite.
As Crab Evo enlarge into Super Crab Evo, the Dynamen utilize vehicles stored in DyJupiter (with DynaYellow riding Dyna Garry alongside DynaPink) and combine into Kagaku Gattai Dyna Robo for the first time. Eventually, Dyna Robo destroy the Evolution Beast for good.

Design[]
- DynaYellow has a spandex suit, with a white main body seen in the legs with a yellow inner stripe and two black outer stripes along the sides, with the torso covered by a yellow "short-sleeved" shirt with a black stripe down the middle and along the cuffs, similar to the appearance of a baseball jersey. Both his gloves and boots are yellow in color; while a holster on the right side where he holds his DynaRod and a pin on his left torso with the Dynaman logo on it. His belt surrounds his waist with a buckle in the shape of the DynaBrace. His helmet is yellow, with a black visor with a jagged point in the center of the bottom and a gray mouthpiece. The top of the helmet has a black stripe rising up triangularly with a yellow logo inside: the top with a "IV" symbol (the Roman Numberal "4") and the letters "DY" (which stands for "DynaYellow"). The logo and the visor are separated by a raised silver "lid" similar to a baseball cap.
