History
Abaranger
Mikoto was a child prodigy, able to excel at any task placed in front of him. This scared his parents, who adopted him out to a councilman when he was in 3rd grade. 
TV STORY-Ep. 42: The Thing Hidden in the Abare Kid
He enrolled in medical school at the age of 10. At the age of 14, he studied as a surgeon in the United States. He remained bored with his life until he was contacted by the rampaging Bakuryu under Evolian influence, eventually 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 #0 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 Lije'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. 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 Lejewel entered Dino Curry much to the Abaranger's surprise. TV STORY-Final Ep.: Only Those Who've Abare'd
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.

Legend War
Years later, AbareKiller fought alongside not only his own team, but every single Sentai Ranger in existence, against the Empire of Zangyack when it attacked the Earth in the Great Legend War. 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.

Key In Basco's Possession
When Marvelous went to confront Basco, Basco revealed that there were more Ranger Keys than the ones that he Marvelous and AkaRed collected, after Basco's first group of Ranger Key Clones were beaten he summoned another group of ten clones (With a clone of AbareKiller being one of them.) to attack the Gokaigers and kidnap them bar Marvelous. TV STORY-Ep. 15: A Privateer Appears
After Marvelous freed the others, Basco summoned his clones again to fight the Gokaigers, the clone of AbareKiller along with the clone of Bouken Silver fought Gokai Pink and was beaten by the combined efforts of Gokai Pink and Gokai Yellow. After their encounter with Basco, the Gokaigers took the AbareKiller key along with the other Sixth Ranger Keys and added it to their own Ranger Keys. TV STORY-Ep. 16: Clash! Sentai vs. Sentai
Gokai Silver
Mikoto Nakadai's spirit alongside TimeFire and DragonRanger appearing before Gai Ikari
Later, Mikoto's spirit met Gai Ikari about his becoming Gokai Silver, along with Burai and Naoto Takizawa. His powers have been channeled into a Ranger Key just as all the other Rangers' powers have been. He granted Gai the Gokai Cellular and Gokai Silver Ranger Key, as well as the Abarangers' Greater Power. He then told Gai to keep things exciting before ascending again with Burai and Naoto. TV STORY-Ep. 18: The Big Abare with the Dinosaur Robot Drill
Farewell Space Pirates
After the defeat of Ackdos Gill, Captain Marvelous returned all the Ranger Keys to the former Sentai heroes. It is assumed Mikoto and his teammates received their keys, allowing for them to utilize their powers once again. Since Mikoto could still transform in his deceased state, it's assumed its return was a symbolic measure as opposed to the actual return of his powers. TV STORY-Final Ep.: Farewell Space Pirates

Zenkaiger
AbareKiller in Zenkaiger
A manifestation of AbareKiller was summoned by Zocks through the Abaranger Sentai Gear which allowed him to use the Wing Pentact which he used to draw a giant bottle of maple syrup to lure out Kabutomushi World. TV STORY-No. 19-kai! Zenkai Change, Super Zenkai!
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. MOVIE STORY-Bakuryu Sentai Abaranger 20th: The Unforgivable Abare
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 Lije 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.

Behind the Scenes
Portrayal
Mikoto with TopGaler as seen in an eyecatch.
- Mikoto Nakadai is portrayed by Koutaro Tanaka (田中 幸太朗 Tanaka Kōtarō). As a child, he was portrayed by Shotaro Okada (岡田尚太郎 Okada Shotarō). As AbareKiller, his suit actor was Yasuhiko Imai (今井 靖彦 Imai Yasuhiko) in the series, and Hideyoshi Iwata (岩田 栄慶 Iwata Hideyoshi) in Bakuryu Sentai Abaranger 20th: The Unforgivable Abare, known for portraying most of the titular Ultras
since Ultraman Nexus. - In the Korean dub of Abaranger entitled Power Rangers Dino Thunder (파워레인저 다이노 썬더 Pawo Leinjeo Daino Sseondeo?), which aired in South Korea, Mikoto Nakadai is renamed Mito (미토?), while his Ranger designation is DinoWhite (다이노 화이트 Daino Hwaiteu?). In the Korean dub of the main series and Captain Force, he is voiced by Seo Yoon-sun (서윤선?), meanwhile in the summer special, Abare Summer is Freezing Cold!, he was voiced by the late Yu Ho-han (유호한?).
Design
- AbareKiller's suit is based on a tupuxuara, a genus of pterosaur.
Etymology
- AbareKiller is a combination of "Abare", which can be translated to "rampage" and "Killer", reflecting his desire to destroy the Abarangers.
- His surname is a reference to the Japanese word for the Mesozoic era (中生代 chūseidai), which comprises the three geological periods after which the main three Abarangers are named (Cretaceous, Jurassic and Triassic). His given name is a homophone of the Japanese word for 'lord' or 'ruler' (命 mikoto), which is a reference to him wanting to take over the heroes and Evoliens, but also having a part of Dezumozorlya.

The AbareKiller Ranger Key.
- "Abaranger!"
- ―Mobilates'/Gokai Cellular's Gokai Change announcement[src]
The AbareKiller Ranger Key (アバレキラーレンジャーキー Abare Kirā Renjā Kī) is Mikoto Nakadai'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 other fourteen Sixth Ranger keys and the ten extra hero keys, were initally acquired by Basco ta Jolokia and later used by the Gokaigers. Like all of his Ranger Keys, Basco used his trumpet, the Rapparatta, to turn the AbareKiller key into a puppet to do his bidding. The copy AbareKiller was one of the remaining ten sixth rangers after the Gokaigers defeated the first five, with Basco using these ten to ambush the Gokaigers and take all of them hostage bar Marvelous. When Marvelous rescued them, they defeated all 10 puppets and claimed the Ranger Keys.
While in the possession of the Gokaigers, the AbareKiller Ranger Key was mainly used by Gai Ikari (Gokai Silver), who used it to fight as AbareKiller. It was also used by Don Dogoier (Gokai Green) and Ahim de Famille on one occasion each.
- Ahim became AbareKiller when the Gokaigers used the powers of the sixth heroes while fighting Action Commander Almadon. TV STORY-Ep. 17: The Amazing Silver-Colored Man
- When the Gokaigers became the Abarangers while fighting Action Commander Daiyarl. TV STORY-Ep. 29: The Abare Quick-Changing New Combination
- Don became AbareKiller as part of an all-white Gokai Change in the Gokaigers' fight with Makuu Prison Warden Ashurada. MOVIE STORY-Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger vs. Space Sheriff Gavan: The Movie
The Abaranger 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 Abaranger keys were defeated by Gokai Yellow. MOVIE STORY-Gokaiger Goseiger Super Sentai 199 Hero Great Battle
During Gai's encounter with the three sixth rangers, it was shown that somehow, presumably due to his deceased state, Mikoto and all deceased rangers could still transform.
After Zangyack were finally defeated, the Gokaigers gave the Ranger Keys back to their rightful owners. It is presumed that Mikoto received his key despite being in the afterlife.
The key was donated on his behalf for use in the Super Sentai Derby Colosseum. MOVIE STORY-Kaizoku Sentai: Ten Gokaiger

Notes
- Mikoto spent the least amount of time out of all the Sixth Rangers on his team at six episodes and a movie.
- According to screenwriter Naruhisa Arakawa, AbareKiller was supposed to remain an Evil Ranger. However, due to poor sales of AbareKiller-related merchandise, he was pressured by Toei and TV Asahi executives to redeem the character. Koutaro Tanaka, who played Mikoto, acknowledged that he was hesitant about the character joining the Abarangers but relented to the producer's intentions.[1][2][3]
- He is the only member of the Evolian to be human, as the other members were either from the group itself or originally from Dino Earth.
- Mikoto is the first Sixth Ranger to add his weapon to the team's combining weapon, where his Wing Pentact is used to create the Superior Dino Bomber.
- Mikoto is the only member of the Abarangers as well as the only Sentai Sixth Ranger to not have his own individual transformation sequence in the series, with his transformation consisting of gusts of wind covering the whole body.
- He would later gain one like the others in Bakuryu Sentai Abaranger 20th: The Unforgivable Abare.
- In All Super Sentai Great Voting, AbareKiller is ranked 24th in "Sentai Heroes".
