―Summoning Announcement^[src]

Mashin Zabyun (魔進ザビューン, Mashin Zabyūn) is a white and red shark/bullet train-based Mashin in Mashin Sentai Kiramager. It forms the limbs and mask of King Express Zabyun.

Overview

Mashin Zabyun was originally the Aqua Kiramai Stone (アクアキラメイストーン, Akua Kiramei Sutōn), and possesses the power to repel Numajo's curses. After being cured from Numajo's venom and becoming a Mashin, Zabyun can move at incredible speed, swim through solid matter, utilize the Lorenzini Search (ロレンチーニサーチ, Rorenchīni Sāchi) sonar ability, and fire cyan laser beams from its yellow eyes. His shark-themed design also makes him incredibly versatile in aquatic environments, as he can swim like an actual shark (though he looks more like a sea snake or eel whenever he does so).

Besides its train and stone modes, Zabyun has three additional modes which involve his components separating into weapon forms:

• Gun & Screw Cannon Mode (銃＆スクリュー砲モード, Jū ando Sukuryū-hō Mōdo), formed from his front and thruster sections (what would be the arms and mask of King Express Zabyun).
• Spear Mode (槍モード, Yari Mōdo), formed from his front and middle sections (what would be the right arm and legs of King Express Zabyun). It finisher is the Zabyun Big Wave Lancer, where Zabyun is thrusted towards the Jamen Beast to impale it with his front section.
• Bazooka Mode (バズーカーモード, Bazūkā Mōdo), formed from his middle section (what would be the legs of King Express Zabyun).

History

Mashin Zabyun in its corroded state

Long ago, Zabyun and Mashin Fire accompanied King Oradin, Queen Mabayuine and Takamichi Crystaria to the Stagnant Sea to combat the Witch of the Stagnant Sea Numajo. Assisting Oradin, Zabyun repelled Numajo's curse until her sister Minjo attacked them from behind, forcing Oradin to drop Zabyun, who was turned to rust by Numajo's corrosive venom. TV STORY-Episode 21: Fishing, Sometimes a Master Oradin would later bring the incapacitated Zabyun to Mr. Hakataminami in hopes that Numajo's poison could be cured by human resources, though it would be some time before it could happen, as Numajo's venom contains toxins not found on Earth.

Many years later, Zabyun would only become relevant once Muryou Hakataminami, the son of Mr. Hakataminami, suggested that Zabyun's power could be used to cure Mabushina of Numajo's curse. To accomplish this, half of the Kiramagers went back in time using the Reversia Kanaema Stone to retrieve a poison sample from Numajo, allowing Muryou to restore Zabyun and cure Mabushina. Kiramai Red would later reformat Zabyun to help defeat Motorboat Basra.

Notes

• Mashin Zabyun is a recolored and retooled variant of Mashin Jouki, replacing the dinosaur and steam locomotive design elements with that of a modern bullet train crossed with a shark. Unlike Mashin Jouki, it does not have a third mode, with the retooling removing much of the extra joints and pieces found on Jouki. The toy version (along with the series) compensates for this by having Zabyun's pieces reassemble into a variety of weapons.
• The names of King Express Zabyun's attacks are references to shark-themed films.
  • The Jaws Attack is named after the Jaws franchise, centered around a series of attacks on US citizens by Great White Sharks.
  • The Left Hand Screw and Zabyun Tornado Cutter are references to the Sharknado films, revolving around a couple forced to deal with shark-infested tornadoes.
  • The Zabyun Megalo Blaster is named after The Meg, a 2018 film featuring a Megalodon, the largest species of predatory shark.
