- "Appear! Daizyuzin!
Invoke, Daizyuzin!" - [src]
Shinka Gattai Daizyuzin (進化合体大獣神 Shinka Gattai Daijūjin, Great Beast God) is the combined form of the five primary guardian beasts, who first combine into the Beast Battle Tank Dino Tanker and then transform further into Daizyuzin. Rather than a mere robot, Daizyuzin is actually a physical incarnation of the Ruling God of the five tribes. As such he has his own will and occasionally gives challenges or suggests the right actions for the Zyurangers to help on their quest to be real heroes.
Overview[]
In battle, Daizyuzin wields the Mammoth Shield (マンモスシールド Manmosu Shīrudo), which can fire energy beams from its eyes and the Dinosaur Sword God Horn [Citation needed]from 29 April 2023 (UTC), or Dinosaursword Godhorn[1] (恐竜剣ゴッドホーン Kyōryū Ken Goddo Hōn), which it uses in its Super Legend Thunder Slash (超伝説雷光斬り Chō Densetsu Raikō Giri) finisher - this attack has three variations:

- a vertical slash from the bottom up
- a horizontal left-to-right slash

History[]
Zyuranger[]
First appearing in episode 6, Daizyuzin was shown to Geki during a vision of a post-apocalyptic future that Bandora would bring about if she were victorious. Under the instruction of Barza, Geki sought out the Dinocrystals (the key to combining the Guardian Beasts into Daizayujin) and after freeing his comrades from the trees Dora Sphinx had trapped them in along with several children, the five Zyurangers combined the guardian beasts into Daizyuzin to defeat both Dora Sphinx and Grifforzer before the children Dora Sphinx had imprisoned could be cut down by a construction crew.
Far from a simple Mecha, Daizyujin is a completely sentient and intelligent being, a deity incarnate. When occasionally spoken to directly, he displays a stern, fearsome, wise and fatherly persona, supervising the Zyurangers' mission and offering guidance. He is fully autonomous; even personally interfering in the first duel between Geki and Burai, and later appearing to hand out Bandora and her minions eternal punishment once Dai Satan was dealt with.
When Burai was revived and given the Sword of Hellfriede, Daizyuzin told Geki to fight Burai. Geki refused and Daizyuzin angrily attacked him for letting his personal feelings override his duty as a Zyuranger, regrettably oblivious to the fact that this was why Bandora wanted Burai awakened. All was soon resolved however when Geki finally managed to reach Burai's heart and Burai's tears destroyed the sword, whereupon Daizyuzin officially announced that Burai would be the sixth Zyuranger. Prior to Burai's redemption, Bandora had learned of a prophecy of Daizyuzin's defeat and Grifforzer, Lamie Scorpion, and Burai worked together to hurl him into a lava pit as a solar eclipse had cut off Daizyuzin's power. Fortunately, the prophecy had only foreseen Daizyuzin's defeat rather than his death, and after using the energy of the lava to re-energize, Daizyuzin returned in time to stop Dragon Ceasar from destroying the city while under Burai's control.
Despite being a god, Daizyuzin was far from invincible or all-knowing, as it was revealed during the battle with Satan Franke that in the initial battle with Dai-Satan, Daizyuzin's true form had been split into three lesser aspects (Daizyuzin, Dragon Caesar, and King Brachion). After the Zyurangers performed a ceremony at an ancient alter where they "gave voice to their mission" Daizyuzin's full power was restored, enabling him to fight the new and more powerful Dokita-Dora Monsters on an equal level as well as to combine with Dragon Ceasar and King Brachion to form Zyutei Daizyujin and then Ultimate Daizyuzin.
After the destruction of Dora Talos and the death of Kai in the finale, Daizyuzin trapped Bandora and her lackeys in a golden vase and banished them back into the depths of space.
Daizyuzin would later reappear to lend a hand in the battle against Emperor Daidas, and lend his power to energize GaoKing in Hyakuju Sentai Gaoranger vs. Super Sentai.

Gokaiger[]
When GokaiOh and Gosei Great faced the Black Cross Colossus, the mecha of the first 33 Super Sentai, including Daizyuzin which possibly manifested from a toy version like DaiDenzin and the Variblune, appeared to back them up. When the Black Cross Colossus summoned several giant villains to oppose them, Daizyuzin fought alongside AbarenOh and Galaxy Mega to destroy Danger Cabinet-Director Chirakasonne. After all the giant villains were destroyed, all 35 mecha weakened Black Cross Colossus with a combined attack before GokaiOh combined with the Variblune to become Goren GokaiOh which destroyed the Black Cross Colossus with the Gokai Hurricane: Cassiopeia finisher. With the battle won, the 33 past Super Sentai mecha vanished. TV STORY-Gokaiger Goseiger Super Sentai 199 Hero Great Battle

Behind the Scenes[]
Portrayal[]
- Daizyuzin was voiced by the late Eiji Maruyama.

Etymology[]

Ranger Key[]
- "Daizyuzin!"
- ―Mobilates' Gokai Change announcement[src]
- "Zyuranger!"
- ―Mobilates' Gokai Change announcement (toy)[src]
Through the powers of the Phantom Ranger Keys, the Gokaigers can re-create and summon the Greater Power of any Super Sentai team in existence. In Tokumei Sentai Go-Busters vs. Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger: The Movie, the Phantom Ranger Keys reproduced the greater power of the Go-Busters, which allowed their respective mechas to transform to other previous Super Sentai mechas through Megazord keys. Gai used his Megazord key to transform GoZyuJin into Daizyuzin.
Notes[]
- According to an article by PLEX's Tsuyoshi Nonaka, it was inspired by Golion/Voltron. This is most evident in the SaberTiger design wherein the head of the Sabertooth Tiger is the foot of Daizyuzin, the legs fold sideways and the tail becomes Daizyuzin's kneecap. The tank formation was inspired by Daitetsujin 17.
- While the Shout Factory! release of Zyuranger spells his name as "Daizyuzin", most toys (e.g. the original DX and Soul of Chogokin versions) and other sources spell it as "Daizyujin".[2]
- Daizyuzin was the first Sentai Mecha to use a motif of prehistoric animals and was also the first to be comprised entirely of mechanized animals rather than vehicles. Liveman's LiveRobo included the mechanized Land Lion, however the other components - Jet Falcon and Aqua Dolphin - were both vehicles designed with animal motifs.
- Like some other mechs in earlier shows, whenever Daizyuzin had to exhibit dexterity, the costume's large fists would be removed and replaced with simple silver gloves. Depending on the scene, only one or both of the gloves may have been swapped out at any given time.
- During the DinoTanker transformation into Daizyuzin, the Zyurangers are seen from the back in the wrong order. PteraRanger and TigerRanger are the wrong way around, as well as MammothRanger and TriceraRanger sitting behind when they should be in front.
- Daizyuzin and Guardian Beasts' cockpits are recycled versions from Jet Icarus' cockpit.
- The original Jet Icarus' cockpit was used as the space shuttle's cockpit from the first episode of the show.
- Daizyuzin appears in three Sentai team-up events in a row:
- Gokaiger VS. Goseiger: A manifestation of Daizyuzin appears in Gokaiger Goseiger Super Sentai 199 Hero Great Battle.
- Go-Busters VS. Gokaiger: GoZyuJin Gokai Changes into Daizyuzin in Tokumei Sentai Go-Busters vs. Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger: The Movie.
- Kyoryuger VS. Go-Busters: Guardian Beast Tyrannosaurus which was summoned by the Zyuranger Zyudenchi forms Daizyuzin in Zyuden Sentai Kyoryuger vs. Go-Busters: Dinosaur Great Battle! Farewell, Eternal Friends.
- All the Guardian Beasts each have their first letter either on their sides or a center position.
- Guardian Beast Tyrannosaurus' roar is a modified version of Rodan's roar.
- Due to the posture of the human suit actor's performance, the Guardian Beast Tyrannosaurus' design is based on an outdated concept of what an actual Tyrannosaurus Rex may have looked like. More recent scientific-finds have revealed the Tyrannosaurus Rex's body had a more forward-leaning posture rather than an upright-posture. Subsequent Sentai mecha based on the Tyrannosaurus Rex have been designed using this new scientifically-accurate design, although return-appearances by the Guardian Beast Tyrannosaurus itself retain the original outdated structure.
- In the Korean dub of Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger, entitled Power Rangers Captain Force, Daizyujin is called Yasushin. In Kikai Sentai Zenkaiger, entitled Power Rangers Zenkaiger, Daizyujin is called the Megazord from the American counterpart's Korean Dub.
- Guardian Beast Tyrannosaurus is the first Sentai Mecha to be portrayed by a suit actor.
