Tent Grumer (テントグルマー Tento Gurumā) is a tent-themed Kurumaju from the Great Space Invasion Running Team Hashiriyan.
History
At the campsite, the kids are gathering around with their teacher to prepare their lunch, only to have the Sanseater Trio crash their camping activities and Itasha uses her Ignition Key on a tent to create the Tent Grumer. Tent scares the campers and then entraps them in individual tents with only Senji and his teacher managing to avoid the tent trap. Tent absorbs the terror of the trapped children to create Ghassolin and delights in mocking the kids and their predicament.
Decotorade thinks that this was a brilliant plan to gather Ghassolin out in the sticks since the Boonboomgers are in the city and will be unaware of their activities, so they can terrify as many humans as they want to collect unlimited amounts of Ghassolin. Senji’s teacher tells Senji to run away and get help, with Tent trying to stop them by capturing the teacher and seemingly going after Senji.…after letting him get ahead from his maniacal laughter and monologue about how hopeless it is to resist him much to the chagrin of the Trio.
Senji is running for his life as Nejiretta catch up to him when he trips. Sakito and Byundi are out camping, with the former boiling water for ramen while Byundi tries fishing, asking Sakito when they are going to go house hunting. Sakito says that sleeping outside isn’t so bad especially when camping is involved. He then hears Senji’s cry for help and quickly goes to his location to knock around the grunts and tells Senji to run, transforming into Bun Violet. Senji is surprised to see a real Boonboomger.
Taiya arrives at a parking area for the nature trails and gets out of his car, getting the package of fireworks out only to see Sakito fighting Nejiretta, he races towards Senji only to be confronted by Tent Grumer. Tent Grumer tries to trap the two in a tent, but Sakito pushes them out of the way and gets himself trapped by the tent. Taiya wants to help him, but Byundi says he will try to save Sakito so Taiya and Senji can run to somewhere safe. Taiya thanks Byundi and runs, with the latter trying to rush to Sakito only to get captured in a tent trap right next to him.
Taiya tries to get to his car, but stops Senji when he sees Itasha taking pictures of Decotorade and Yaiyai posing next to the Boonboon Supercar and guarding it from anyone trying to take it. Taiya has no choice but to walk out of the forest since he has to keep Senji safe from harm by going over the mountain to lose the enemies pursuing them. Itasha is too busy taking selfies on her phone next to Taiya’s car to notice their enemies were just a few yards away from them in plain sight.
After an undetermined amount of time walking, Taiya and Senji make it out of the forest to see the city limits. Senji sees the captured campers being violently assaulted by Nejiretta at a factory warehouse. Cannonborg uses his puppet as a megaphone to urge Bun Red to come out of hiding, threatening to further harm the humans he has taken hostage if he doesn’t show up. Taiya gives Senji his fireworks and tells him to wait here until he gets back as he runs to rescue the hostages.
Taiya confronts Tent at the factory and Sakito somehow managed to free himself from his tent prison to assist him. The two Rangers transform and Tent shoots hot charcoal from his face at them, which the Rangers dodge. Taiya and Sakito fight at a brisk pace and avoid getting into another tent trap, but Tent then uses Excitetong to shoot fireballs and eventually hits Sakito, who goes down from getting burned. Tent tries to finish off Taiya, barraging him with charcoal and deploying a tent trap, but Sakito recovers and shoots arrows to destroy the tent and then steers the arrows towards Tent Grumer knocking him on his back. Sakito says that Taiya owes him for the save after wincing in pain, which Taiya thanks him for and then changes into his 119 form.
Tent tries to use his coals to do a flamethrower attack, but Taiya slides under the attack and shoots him point blank with the Shokablaster, sending the Grumer flying backwards. Taira then boosts to get behind his target, generating a tire to give Tent a hard kick in the back to send him flying forward and falling onto the ground. He effortlessly dodges Tent’s punches and kicks him to the ground again, enraging the crooked camper to set himself on fire and try to ram Taiya. He is repelled by Taiya’s Hose Impact, using his boot wheels to keep him stabilized from the recoil and Tent is sent flying into the air only to be hit by the Zoonzoom Overdrive at the right time before he hits the ground. Tent is destroyed and then revived by Yaiyai’s Highway Beam and Cannonborg adds another nasty surprise with his latest invention, Big Nejiscrews, specially designed screws that enlarge the Nejiretta to fight the Boonboomger’s mechas.
Cannonborg then decides to “liven up the camping experience” by creating a structure of gas pipes around a wrecked building and teleports the hostages inside, with Tent declaring that he will “make a campfire” by igniting the gas emitting from the pipes. This sets the structure ablaze and the hostages are at risk of burning to death as the villains dance merrily dance around the “campfire”. Taiya worries about the hostages until his team shows up and Ishiro gives him the BoonBoom Leo Rescue Car to summon his new mecha that the team built for him. Bun Bun finishes his work on the vehicle and immediately deploys it to Taiya, who uses the high pressure hose to destroy the Nejiretta and uses the BoonBoom Sonoshi docked into the fire ladder to reach the hostages and puts out some of the flames to clear a path. Tent tries to stop Taiya by attempting to knock the building over but he, the kids and their teacher escape before he flattens the structure. Taiya drops them off, but can’t reach Tent because of the debris blocking his path. Bun Bun says that is not a problem for Leo Rescue’s true function, uploading a transformation program that allows Leo Rescue to change from a fire engine into a Lion robot called Boomboom Leon.
Leon climbs up the hill of debris and jumps through Tent’s flaming Campfire Rings, shooting the Grumer with its tail cannons and then furiously pouncing and scratching Tent’s face followed by further shots from his cannons. The rest of the team decide to step in to help, combining their mecha with Leon to become Armored Leon and quickly end the terrible tent’s terror once and for all with the Bakuage Scramble finisher.
