Personality[]
Yet despite his bravado, there are times when he doubts his own abilities. Once, he was depressed when a little boy's confidence in him was shattered. Another time, he doubted himself after he quit playing baseball as a high schooler. Yet despite these doubts, he knows what he must do and does them as well as possible. He pretended to be a criminal and ended up having a boy idolize and imitate him. To prove to the boy that crime does not pay, Shingo let himself be beaten up by street thugs while the boy was watching.

Ranger Key[]
- "Bioman!"
- ―Mobilates' Gokai Change announcement[src]
The Green2 Ranger Key (グリーンツーレンジャーキー Gurīn Tsū Renjā Kī) is Shingo Takasugi'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 majority of the Ranger Keys were collected by the Red Pirates and later used by the Gokaigers. The Green2 Ranger Key was mainly used by Don Dogoier (Gokai Green), who used it to fight as Green2.
- While fighting against Action Commander Uorlian on his own. TV STORY-Ep. 19: Armor of the 15 Warriors
- When the Gokaigers became the Biomen while fighting Kiaido. TV STORY-Ep. 28: Wings are Eternal
The Bioman 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. Splitting up, the puppet Green2 was defeated as part of a group of surviving Green and Black warrior keys by Gokai Green and Super Gosei Black. MOVIE STORY-Gokaiger Goseiger Super Sentai 199 Hero Great Battle
After Zangyack were finally defeated, the Gokaigers gave the Ranger Keys back to their rightful owners. Shingo received his key and became Green2 once more. TV STORY-Final Ep.: Farewell Space Pirates
