- ―GoRed's roll call[src]
Matoi Tatsumi (巽
History[]
GoGoFive[]
He is 24 years old (36 in Gokaiger) and takes his duties as a leader and as the eldest brother very seriously. He never backs down from a fight no matter how difficult it might be. At times he yells at his younger siblings for messing up for him. Matoi does everything by the book with no room for messing up.
Since he was the one that practically raised his younger brothers and sister, he feels very much responsible for them. He is their "father" and brother rolled up in one.
He gets into a lot of arguments with Shou Tatsumi. He might argue with his siblings quite a bit but that's only because he loves them and wants them to be the best they can be. He was also the one who came up with the team's battle cry.
GoGoFive's activity is suspended by the Capital Fire Departement under Comissioner Kenji Inui after several proves; recently GoRed's wrong decision for exttinguishing fire (as ordered by his father) instead of evacuating first (as ordered by Comissioner Inui), making several civilians are also injured when Thunder Needle Saima Beast Raima attacks GoGoFive. Matoi then have a talk with Inui about his father's decision was right, regarding the wind blowing around the building (if he had undergone evacuation first, the civilians would die of burnt by wind-blown fire). This changes Commisioner Inui's heart and abridges friendship with Professor Tatsumi. 
TV STORY-Ep. 8: Rescue Sentai Activity Suspended
He is also not fond of marriage, as he once refuses when he is attended into a marriage interview Kenji Inui holds for his daughter, Tsugumi. After eventually forced to attend it, Matoi reveals the reason why does he not want to marry, he wants to be focus on his job to save the world. After Garubaria starts rampaging, he accidentally switches body with Tsugumi, giving a chance to attack Matoi. After Garubaria attacks Matoi with Tsugumi's body, Tsugumi in Garubaria's body makes a counterattack, resulting Tsugumi getting her body back, and Garubaria switching bodies with Matoi. Matoi almost get sacrified of being shot by his siblings if Tsugumi did not throw roses to reswitch bodies with Garubaria. After GoGoFive defeats Garubaria, Tsugumi visits Matoi to apologise. She later throws Matoi until he is stuck on the ceiling, proving that she is stronger than it looks. TV STORY-Ep. 37: The Beauty is a Saima Beast!?

GoRed in Gaoranger vs. Super Sentai.
GoRed 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 predecessor Red Falcon, he appeared as one of 24 previous Red Rangers in Gaoranger vs. Super Sentai together with fellow Red Rangers from his predecessors AkaRanger to GingaRed to his successor TimeRed. He had no interactions with his younger brother Daimon, who also appeared, but alongside the Dream Sentai instead. MOVIE STORY-Hyakuju Sentai Gaoranger vs. Super Sentai

Super Sentai Versus Series Theater[]
Matoi's appearances in the "Versus Series", Kyukyu Sentai GoGoFive vs. Gingaman and Mirai Sentai Timeranger vs. GoGoFive, are featured in the Super Sentai Versus Series Theater, hosted by the heroes of Tensou Sentai Goseiger. Alata (Gosei Red) also dresses as Matoi in the GoGoFive cosplay.
Gokaiger[]
Legend War[]
Years later, Matoi fought alongside not only his own team/siblings, but every single Sentai Ranger in existence, against the Empire of Zangyack when it attacked the Earth in the Great Legend War. He was seen as one of the Reds to first engage a Sugomin. 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. The GoRed 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 defeat of Ackdos Gill, Captain Marvelous returned all the Ranger Keys to the former Sentai heroes. It is assumed Matoi received his key alongside his younger brother Shou, allowing for the Tatsumi family to utilize their abilities once again. TV STORY-Final Ep.: Farewell Space Pirates
Super Hero Taisen[]
GoGoFive, alongside the Gingamen, Megarangers, Gaorangers, and Timerangers, emerge through a dimensional wall
.
Matoi, 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 a Dogomin with GoYellow. MOVIE STORY-Kamen Rider × Super Sentai: Super Hero Taisen
Zyuohger vs. Ninninger[]
GoRed among the 38 Red warriors.
The first 38 Sentai projected into Wild Tousai Shuriken King.
GoRed 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[]
Matoi joined the Super Sentai Strongest Battle as a member of Leader Team. It’s unknown whether he participated in any of the matches, but his team lost the third round against the Martial Artist Team.
Zenkaiger[]
Kikai Sentai Zenkaiger The Movie: Red Battle! All Sentai Rally!![]
Matoi alongside with his Sentai Red Ranger predecessors appeared to help the Zenkaigers. MOVIE STORY-Kikai Sentai Zenkaiger The Movie: Red Battle! All Sentai Rally!!
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 2, Kamen Rider J and DynaRed. MOVIE STORY-Saber + Zenkaiger: Superhero Senki
The Surprisingly Shocking Great Kidnapping![]
GoRed in Zenkaiger
A manifestation of GoRed alongside his team was summoned by Juran through the GoGoFive Sentai Gear which allowed the Zenkaiger to use the GoGoFive's rescue skills to save Flint from a burning warehouse. TV STORY-No. 36-kai! The Surprisingly Shocking Great Kidnapping!
Personality[]
Though initially awkward and coming across as a goofball, Matoi does good by his family and the greater good by having a completely selfless and unwavering sense of justice that doesn't back down, even in the face of incredible danger. He consistently puts himself on the line if it means that he saves his siblings, or civilians who are caught in the crossfire. His dedication to both saving lives and acting as the eldest child of the Tatsumi siblings frequently leads to arguments with the rest of his family, and his highly critical nature sparked several fights with the rest of GoGoFive. Despite his intensity, Matoi cares deeply for his brothers and sisters, and would regularly put himself in danger to protect them. Over time, his selflessness grows further and further. Even after the resurrected Zylpheeza and Salamandes destroyed the Max Victory Robo as Matoi was piloting it during Grandienne's last and largest attack on Earth, he still fights back by shooting at the giants with only his sidearms, giving Nagare and Shou enough time to each pilot Grand Liner and Victory Mars. It was with this raw emotional energy, love for both his family and the Earth, and willpower that guided the team into powering the Max Victory Robo Black Version to defeat the Destruction Gods.

GoRed Ranger Key
- "GoGoFive!"
- ―Mobilates' Gokai Change announcement[src]
The GoRed Ranger Key (ゴーレッドレンジャーキー Gō Reddo Renjā Kī) is Matoi Tatsumi'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 GoRed Ranger Key was mainly used by Captain Marvelous (Gokai Red), who used it to fight as GoRed. It was also used by Gai Ikari on one occasion.
- When the Gokaigers became GoGoFive while fighting against Basco's Rinjuken Warriors Ranger Key Clones.
TV STORY-Ep. 23: People's Lives are the Future of the Earth - 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!!
The GoGoFive 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. Splitting up, the puppet GoRed was defeated as part of a group of surviving Red warrior keys by Gokai Red and Super Gosei Red. 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. Matoi received his key and became GoRed once more. TV STORY-Final Ep.: Farewell Space Pirates

GoGoFive Zyudenchi
The Super Sentai Zyudenchi (スーパー戦隊獣電池 Sūpā Sentai, Super Squadron Beast Batteries), alternatively named Legend Sentai Zyudenchi (レジェンド戦隊獣電池 Rejendo Sentai Jūdenchi, Legend Squadron Beast Batteries) in the toyline, are a special line of Zyudenchi that contain the likeness of the Sentai teams before Kyoryuger (represented by the main Reds). These Zyudenchi are in the same fashion as the "Legend Rider" lines of Collectible Devices in the Kamen Rider Series.

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 ToQChanger toy is shown to have sounds for Legend Ressha of all 37 previous Sentai.
The GoGoFive Ressha (ゴーゴーファイブレッシャー GōGō Faibu Ressha) appears as an SG Ressha.
