Minus Energy (マイナスエネルギー, Mainasu Enerugī) is a malignant energy associated with negative emotions like fear and despair. It is tied to the 1999 Grand Cross, a key moment in the Sentai Kyukyu Sentai GoGoFive series that marks the arrival of the Grand Witch Grandiene.
Minus Energy is actually the true form of Grandiene, whose spirit is completely formed by Minus Energy, and needs in order to create a physical body on Earth during a Great Cross, proceeding to spread her being across the whole universe. To achieve that goal, she sends her three sons and only daughter, the Psyma Siblings to Earth along with the servant of the family Pierre, to cause massive calamities and disasters using the Psyma Beasts to increase the amount of Minus Energy needed for day of the Grand Cross.
But this energy can be counteracted by the Plus Energy, an opposite pole made of love, hope and courage discovered by Professor Mondo Tatsumi, a leading researcher of the Tatsumi Disaster Prevention Institute and patriarch of the Tatsumi rescue workers clan, who had discovered the existence of Minus Energy 10 years ago and the calamity it would bring along with Grand Cross. When he could not convince anyone of his belief that the Minus Energy was going to invade the Earth, he disappears to be able to secretly create a weapons and technology system based on Plus Energy to fight against the mass of Minus Energy that he would soon overburden. To do this, in February 1999, he chose his five children to become GoGoFive to fight the Psyma, who by then had already begun to attack the earth.
As the next six months passed, the GoGoFive and Psyma Family continued to struggle with the day of the Grand Cross and the greatest impact of Minus Energy ever closer. Even though the Psyma lost their leader and oldest son Dark King Zylpheeza, they continued to cause disasters to increase the evil energy before the decisive day.
Finally, on August 18, on the day of the Grand Cross, the Minus Energy erupted throughout the Earth causing massive disasters when the Psyma Family finally used their power to summon Grandiene to descend on Earth. However, the GoGoFive interrupts the summoning ritual before the alignment is completed, but Grandiene manages to reach the planet albeit incompletely. She then ordered her children to gather more Minus Energy in order to complete their invocation, but they continually failed. On one occasion, they invoked the living asteroid Grandeo, which is composed of Minus Energy, to crash into the Earth and absorb it and complete her body, but the GoGoFive manages to destroy it before it hits the earth.
After the death of her youngest son and second leader of family, Dragon Dark King Salamandes, grown tired of the continuous failures from her children, Grandiene absorbed the evil energies gathered in a chamber of the Psyma Paradico to be able to complete her body, to then get rid of her remaining children as she no longer saw them as necessary and chose to take down GoGoFive by herself, only to have her body destroyed as a result by Max Victory Robo.
The destruction of Grandine's body allows her to asborb all the Minus Energy of Earth and enveloped the planet, causing disasters on a global scale to increase her power. She then revived her strongest sons: Zylpheeza as a puppet and Salamandes as well after Pierre's request, for them to destroy then Earth. When both are defeated, Grandiene revived them again as mindless Destruction Gods that she eventually possesses by concentrates most of her being into them to serve as her avatars to fulfill her goal of total destruction.
But Grandine is destroyed when the Max Victory Robo Sigma Project destroyed her avatars with the overwhelming Plus Energy negating the Minus Energy keeping her alive as she retreated into the Earth's upper atmosphere before exploding from her exposure.
