"Excellent Excitement! AbareKiller! (ときめきの白（はく）眉（び）!アバレキラー!, Tokimeki no Hyakubi! Abarekirā!)"

―AbareKiller's roll call^[src]

"You're a strange one... It's hilariously ironic... Me, wanting to live... But the weird thing is... It's not a bad feeling."

―Mikoto after TopGaler refused to leave him to die alone in space since they were partners and his final words before his death.^[src]

Mikoto Nakadai, M.D. (仲代壬琴博士, Nakadai Mikoto-Hakase) is AbareKiller (アバレキラー, Abare Kirā) of the Abarangers, and the former leader of the Wicked Lifeforms Evolian.

History

Abaranger

Mikoto is a brilliant surgeon educated in the United States at the age of 14, who was bored with his life. This is until he witnesses the Bakuryu attacking the city while under Evolian's influence, caring for an injured Ryoga in the aftermath. But the newfound excitement of destruction was halted when the Abarangers arrived and made the three things that gave Mikoto a thrill into "dull goodies". Soon, with the destruction of the Anomalogaris, the doctor found both the Dino Minder and Bakuryu TopGaler's egg. After that, Mikoto left his profession to start up his "game."

For a while until his formal introduction, Mikoto observed the Abarangers from the side while mastering the Dino Minder and coming to the conclusion that it would be fun to fight against the heroes, thus naming himself "AbareKiller." However, the Zerogo suit is a flawed prototype of the other Abaranger suits with a self-destruct mechanism that could destroy an entire city. Mikoto didn't seem to care that he would die, it actually made things more exciting in "his game." He fought the Abarangers using their stolen Dino Guts to revive his partner TopGaler before recruiting Stego to their cause.

At one point, he even assumed leadership over the villains at Rije's request. After fighting the Killer Giganoid with the Abarangers, it was revealed that the other half of Wicked Life God Dezumozorlya is within him, the cause of his horrible childhood while possessing his strength and evil tendencies. Mikoto had been a genius all his life, enrolling in medical school at the age of ten. Everything he did was right the first time with no mistakes, causing him to later crave excitement as AbareKiller.

However, Mikoto was furious that he was someone else's pawn and decided to refocus his game on the Evolians. It was also revealed that the reason the Dino Minder hasn't exploded yet is because the Dezumozorlya within him has been keeping it at bay.

Soon after though, Dezumozorlya was removed from him and the Dino Minder was set to explode the next time he transformed. When Dino Minder began to self-destruct, he and TopGaler flew away from Earth and both died in the explosion. TV STORY-Ep. 48: The Final Abare Game

During the final episode, a couple that resembles Mikoto and Rejewel entered Dino Curry much to the Abaranger's surprise.

Dekaranger vs. Abaranger

Mikoto returned for a short time to help the Abaranger and Dekaranger after Trinoid 0: Saunaginnan was going to use its ultimate power to revive "the most powerful being in hell", which it believed to be Dezumozorlya. However, when the ceremony completed, it ended up reviving Mikoto instead, due to him being the true ultimate being who had died and gone there. Mikoto remained to help both the Abarangers and Dekarangers up to the point the Trinoid was finally killed, which undid the summon and allowed him to return to the afterlife. As he vanished, Dr. Nakadai told Asuka to give his daughter Mikoto his regards. MOVIE STORY-Tokusou Sentai Dekaranger vs. Abaranger

He gathered all the Rangers together and gave them the order to sacrifice their powers to wipe out the first invasion's armada.

After the defeat of Ackdos Gill, Captain Marvelous returned all the Ranger Keys to the former Sentai heroes.

20 Years Later

An evil version of AbareKiller before his redemption was revived by Trinoid 24: Abarangekko to help him turn Earth into a wasteland. AbareKiller was happy to do his bidding until Ryoga's strong emotions reached him and turned him back to his kind self. Mikoto then joined the other Abarangers and defeated the Trinoid. When Abarangekko grew giant, Mikoto used his pen Pentact to turn AbaRed into Cho AbareMax, who then destroyed the giant monster by channeling the powers of the Bakuryuu. Since Mikoto was revived by Abarangekko, his defeat sent the White Ranger back to the afterlife, but not before he said farewell to his teammates.

Personality

Ever since Mikoto was a child, he was able to perform any task presented to him perfectly. Since nothing was ever a challenge for him, it rendered him bored, prevented him from having friends and ultimately left him struggling through life despite his success seeking what he could never get due to his own perfection: excitement. He saved lives as a doctor, including Ryoga's, but only to gain excitement instead of doing it out of altruism.

As a result, when he obtained his powers, he did not care about winning or losing. He was satisfied as long as he could be entertained, even at the risk of his own life.

Mikoto did care about Rije despite his outwardly aloof attitude towards her, enough that when she starts being taken over by Dezumozorlya, he joins the effort to save her.

Despite his overall dissatisfaction with life and death seeker tendencies, in his final moments, Mikoto admits to TopGaler that for once, he wants to live.
