Behind the Scenes[]
Portrayal[]
- Maria Nagisa is portrayed by Naomi Hagi (ナオミ萩 Hagi Naomi). As a child, she was portrayed by Sari Hamamura (浜村 砂里 Hamamura Sari).
- As Miss America, her suit actors were Eiko Onodera (小野寺 えい子 Onodera Eiko) and Tsutomu Kitagawa (喜多川 務 Kitagawa Tsutomu), and an uncredited stunt driver from Takeshi Racing Team.
Design[]
- Miss America wears a two-piece suit, with a pink leotard with sleeves and a brown pair of tights that flow down towards her feet. Her gloves and boots are both blue in color accentuated with a white scarf. She wears a white belt with a metal buckle and the letter "A" on it, which stands for "America". A shield on her chest possesses the "Stars and Stripes" of the flag of the United States; a star in the top of the field represents the number "5". She wears a pink mask on her helmet with "eyes" which are similar in form to the masks of Gorenger and J.A.K.Q. Beneath the mask is a rounded triangle in gray with a sculpted nose and mouth. Unique to Miss America compared to her teammates (and in fact all Sentai heroes) is a blonde wig she wears on top of her helmet with a red gem around her forehead holding it on top.
Etymology[]
Nagisa (汀 ): An alternative spelling of 渚, means "the water's edge: beach, shore, bank (as of a river or stream)".[3]

- "Battle Fever!"
- ―Mobilates' Gokai Change announcement[src]
The Miss America Ranger Key (ミスアメリカレンジャーキー Misu Amerika Renjā Kī) is Maria Nagisa's personal Ranger Key and what became of her powers after she 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 Miss America Ranger Key was mainly used by Ahim de Famille (Gokai Pink), who used it to fight as Miss America.
- When the Gokaigers became Battle Fever to use the Penta Force cannon to defeat the Combined Combatant.
MOVIE STORY-Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger the Movie: The Flying Ghost Ship

TV STORY-Ep. 35: Dimension on the Other Side
- When the Gokaigers became Battle Fever in their fight against Action Commander Bibaboo.
TV STORY-Ep. 44: A Lovely Christmas Eve
The Battle Fever 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 Battle Fever keys were defeated by Gokai Pink. 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. It is presumed that Maria received her key and became Miss America once more. TV STORY-Final Ep.: Farewell Space Pirates
