Sakura Viscount (サクラ子爵, Sakura Shishaku):

History[]

A cherry blossom-themed Gorma Minion serving under Gara. Sakura Viscount's cherry-tree blossoms are violence-inducing and cause outright riots when unleashed on a group of people. Sakura Viscount was sent by Gara to lure out Kujaku so that Gara could kill her and finally end thier centuries' old rivalry. It was his attack and subsequent corruption of people that led Daigo to confront Kujaku for her tendency to murder innocents with her feathered darts in order to defeat the Gorma and got her to change for the better.

He watched over the fight alongside the Dairangers and laughed as his mistress started to gain the upper-hand which enraged Daigo who was still disgusted by the violence that he created so he and his team transformed and took on Baron Sakura. They took him down with jabs from their Dairen Rods but were blasted down by his Crimson Cherry Blossom Gust as Cotpotros arrived. Though overwhelmed by Daigo's Empty Innocence and then taken down by the Phoenix Cut, Baron Sakura used his Growth Bomb to become a giant.

However, he was easily killed by Dairen'Oh after a Crimson Cheery Blossom Gust attack had absolutely no effect due to them using their Qi-Power Neutralize move to cancel out the damage.
