"Kyoryu Gray!"

"The Slashing Brave, Kyoryu Green!"

―Kyoryu Green's role call^[src]

Soujiro (ソウジロウ, Sōjirō) was Kyoryu Gray (キョウリュウグレー, Kyōryū Gurē) of the future Kyoryugers, 100 years after the original Kyoryuger team was formed. He is the great-grandson of Souji Rippukan and Rin Katsuyama.

Originally, Soujiro was given the powers of the previous Clashing Braves to become Kyoryu Gray, but eventually, he became the new and second Kyoryu Green (キョウリュウグリーン, Kyōryū Gurīn), coming full circle as the descendant of the previous one.

History

Soujiro is Souji Rippukan and Rin Katsuyama's great-grandson who transforms into Kyoryu Gray using the Bunpachy Zyudenchi. He is also a member of the future oriented leisurely generation with a short temper, making him easy to provoke. Somehow, his great-grandfather Souji is still alive and fighting, even in the year 2114. Soujiro discovers his true color of green when he beats his great-grandfather in a sparring match.

"Gaburincho: Bunpachy!"

―Transformation announcement^[src]

Soujiro is first given the powers of Zyudenchi #8 as it was one of the six remaining Zyudenchis left in Candelilla's possession. In this form, he is out of sync with his Ranger power and has a difficult time fully realizing his potential as a Kyoryuger.

"Gaburincho: Zakutor!"

―Transformation announcement^[src]

When finally able to transform into the color he was destined to inherit and accepted by his Zyudenryu, Soujiro is marginally more powerful than his ancestor by at least one Zyudenchi. While the original Kyoryu Green could transform with one Zyudenchi into his ranger form and use another Zyudenchi to enter Armed On (アームドオン, Āmudo On), Soujiro uses one Zyudenchi to enter this form immediately upon transformation. He is also able to summon his Zyuden Arms weapon, the Zakutor Slasher, at will any time after transforming.
