"Speed Star! Washi Pink! (スピードスター！ワシピンク！, Supīdo Sutā! Washi Pinku!)"

―Washi Pink's roll call^[src]

Raptor Type 283 (ラプタータイプ２８３, Raputā Taipu Ni-Hachi-San) , or just simply Raptor (ラプター, Raputā), is a general purpose android and the initial commander of the Orion, who later becomes Washi Pink (ワシピンク, Washi Pinku, Eagle Pink), the Pink Ranger of the Kyurangers. She's the last of the main rangers to awaken, but the eighth to join the team. After Don Armage was defeated for the final time, she chooses to stay on the Battle Orion Ship as its pilot.

Aged 25, Raptor's finished construction date was February 8th.

History

Origin

Raptor coordinates the Kyurangers' efforts against Jark Matter from the Orion.

Raptor 283 was constructed by the Rebellion on their planet TV STORY-Space.2: Let's Go! Phantom Thief BN Team! in the Washi System to serve as secretary to commander Shou Ronbou and pilot of the spaceship ORION. TV STORY-Space.4: Dreamy Android She was descended from the android designs made by Tsurugi Otori, also known as Houou Soldier. TV STORY-Space.23: Become My Shield!

Kyuranger

Raptor was in command of the Orion when she sent the first three Kyurangers, Hammie, Spada and Champ, into battle in the flat planet of Crotus. Here the Kyurangers battle Jark Matter and attempt to save as many civilians as possible. They encounter a man from Luth, Lucky who makes it his goal to be one of them. Raptor 283 accepts him into the Orion to help fix his crashed space cruiser. Once there, they find Lucky has made off with a Transformation Controller Seiza Blaster and Raptor 283 sends the Kyurangers to the planet Jagjag to track him down. In the ground, both Lucky and a Jagjag resident, Garu, become Kyurangers, but soon after, Raptor 283 is ambushed in orbit from Jark Matter ships, forcing the Kyurangers to summon their Voyager machines to take the fight to space. Raptor 283 later welcomes and orients the new Kyurangers and inducts them as part of the Rebellion. TV STORY-Space.1: The Super Stars of Space

Raptor lectures the team on Jark Matter.

Briefing the team on their mission against Jark Matter, Raptor 283 was interrupted by Lucky as he set off in the Shishi Voyager to find the next Kyuranger who he pinpointed to Zigama, sending the other Kyurangers after him. Lucky's shot ultimately bore fruit in the form of the two thieves Naga Ray and Balance who joined the team as Hebitsukai Silver and Tenbin Gold respectively, with Raptor 283 voicing doubt that Lucky's luck would last forever. TV STORY-Space.2: Let's Go! Phantom Thief BN Team!

Introducing the seven Kyurangers to the Rebellion commander Shou Ronpo, Raptor sent them off to prevent the destruction of the planet Needle which was being drained of its Planet Jume by Jark Matter. Raptor was most concerned in light of the emergence of a hostile new Kyuranger, who had stung all the team bar Lucky and Champ, only to find Shou preoccupied with finding a catchphrase, eventually settling on OKyu. Taking the Futago Kyutama from the pile dropped off by Shou, Raptor dropped down to Needle and gave it to Lucky, allowing him to fight with double the power. Fortunately, the afflicted Kyurangers recovered in time for the team to assemble and destroy the Moraimarz draining the planet's Jume. TV STORY-Space.3: The Man from the Desert Star

Chou Super Hero Taisen

Raptor fought as part of the nine-man Kyuranger team as they joined the Chou Shocker Taisen with various Sentai Rangers and Kamen Riders against the Shocker army of the Game World led by Shocker Leader III. Through use of the Futago Kyutama, the complete team fought using a duplicated KyurenOh utilizing all nine Voyagers against the Big Moraimarz Robo piloted by the Oogumo Great Leader, whom they vanquished by fighting alongside the enlarged Kamen Rider Ex-Aid Maximum Gamer Level 99. TV STORY-Kamen Rider × Super Sentai: Chou Super Hero Taisen

Orion

After the destruction of Daikaan Mozuma's Moraimarz, the crew discovered that they had lost control of the ship and that they had been sent on a direct course to the Sun, causing a sharp rise in temperature which the mechanical Raptor tolerated better than her organic shipmates. The ship and crew were ultimately saved, however, as Mozuma was destroyed by Shishi Red and Koguma Skyblue, causing his microbic extensions to dissipate and return control of the ship. TV STORY-Space.10: A Small Giant, Big Star!

Raptor was among the crew left behind to perform repairs on the Orion following the ordeal with the Sun as a team was led by Shou to recover the Tomo Kyutama on Earth. TV STORY-Space.11: Three Kyutama to Save The Universe

Returning from Vela in the midst of Stinger and Champ's fight with Scorpio, Raptor fought in KyurenOh to take down a Deathworm that the Karo had enlarged. Tragically, Champ was near destroyed after saving Stinger from Scorpio, and so Stinger was ordered to take his body to Rebellion HQ in hopes that he could be saved. TV STORY-Space.16: Stinger's Reunion with His Brother

Zyuohger vs. Ninninger

Through unknown circumstances, the nine Kyurangers made a brief appearance on an Earth where Jark Matter was not present. Instead, the Kyurangers arrived to intervene against the Deathgalien before they could interfere with the Zyuohgers' fight with the Ninningers for the future of Super Sentai against Gillmarda. With Washi Pink fighting off Naria alongside Chameleon Green, the Kyurangers eventually forced the Deathgalien to retreat before taking their leave with their appearance observed by the Zyuohger ally Bud, who realized that the future was in safe hands. TV STORY-Doubutsu Sentai Zyuohger vs. Ninninger: Message from the Future from Super Sentai

Planet Toki

Seeking the Kyutama of the Tokei System, the Kyurangers came to the planet Toki and turned the 12 keys needed to unlock it within 30 minutes. Approaching key VIII, Raptor was overwhelmed to find illusions of Lucky, Spada, Tsurugi and Shou all proposing marriage to her, but ultimately rejected them to complete the mission. TV STORY-Space.25: Planet Toki, the Boy's Determination!

Kyuranger vs. Space Squad

Luka Millfy and Raptor 283.

During the mid-credits scene in Kyuranger vs. Space Squad, Raptor and Hammie are enjoying lunch before the Gokaigers' Luka Millfy takes a macaroon from Raptor, but she tries to stop her and they fight over it. Hammie notices that their voices sound alike before Luka and Raptor ask her where their voices are similar.

Personality

Raptor's shown to be serious and short-tempered, as shown as when she hit Shou Ronpo because of him thinking about new reply words instead of Kyuranger safety. She also shown to be brave, as she delivered Futago Kyutama to Lucky while in the battlefield.

However, despite her seriousness, she tends to daydream and write in her tablet about her fighting alongside the Kyurangers. She can also be air headed at times, when no one is around. Her dream became reality, when her wish created the Washi Kyutama. She sees the Orion as her Uncle, due to an incident where both she and Spada were trapped in a magnetic storm during a warp drive test, where she believed that the ship saved them both.

It has being showed that she have a crush on Spada. Also it has being hinted in Space.25: Planet Toki, the Boy's Determination! that she might have a crush on Lucky, Tsurugi Otori, and surprisingly, Shou Ronpo.

Imitations

When Raptor 283 was captured by Desgon, he created a fake Washi Pink from an Indaver. TV STORY-Space.38: Flaming Spheres! The 9 Crisis Strike!

Behind the Scenes

Portrayal

Raptor 283/Washi Pink
M • A • O

Raptor 283 is voiced by M • A • O, also known as Mao Ichimichi (市道真央, Ichimichi Mao) who had previously played Luka Millfy/Gokai Yellow in Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger and voiced Pasco in Ressha Sentai ToQger. Mao would later go on to voice Marluru in Ultraman Trigger: New Generation Tiga. As Washi Pink, her suit actress is Ryoko Gomi (五味涼子, Gomi Ryoko).

Design

to be added

Etymology

• Raptor: In modern usage, "raptor" refers to birds of prey, such as eagles, hawks, and falcons. These creatures are characterized by their sharp talons, keen eyesight, and predatory nature, making the term synonymous with speed, agility, and power. Popularized in modern times by "Velociraptor," a genus of dromaeosaurid dinosaurs, often associated with intelligence, ferocity, and agility due to their portrayal in media like Jurassic Park.

Notes

• Of the 88 modern constellations, she represents Aquila, "The Eagle"
• Washi Pink is the first Female Sentai Ranger to have an Eagle as part of her motif.
• Her numerical designation is not random: in Goroawase, "283" can be read as either tsu-ba-sa (つばさ（翼）, tsu-ba-sa), which means wing, or ha-ya-mi (はやみ（早見）, ha-ya-mi), which means "quickly seen/seeing".
• Raptor is the first non-humanoid pink ranger.
• During the stage show, Raptor does Luka Millfy's pose as well as uttering Luka's catchphrase "Shut up, fool!" in Luka's voice. This is an allusion to the fact that both Raptor and Luka are potrayed by the same actress.
• According to the "Uchu Sentai Kyuranger Photobook All Star Chart", Raptor's age is 25 and her birthday is February 8th, making her born one week after her voice actress.
• The Power Rangers Roleplaying Game book, Across the Stars, features art of an android similar to her helping Isinia Cruger.
• Ciara Hanna, who portrayed Gia Moran in Power Rangers Super Megaforce, expressed interest in voicing Raptor's Power Rangers counterpart as a nod to Ichimichi's dual roles as both Raptor and Luka. Unfortunately this would not occur for Power Rangers Cosmic Fury, with Raptor having no direct counterpart in the series. The Cosmic Fury team has no Pink Ranger, and Washi Voyager, adapted as the Cosmic Eagle Zord, is alternately piloted by Mick Kanic and Javi Garcia.
