Synopsis
The Dekaranger must deal with a mysterious undercover agent from another planet while trying to save her world and Earth from one of the universe's toughest Alienizer gangs.
Plot
The Algolian Gas Drinkers, a squadron of Alienizers with real souls and machine-like bodies, set their sights on Earth after conquering Planet Leslie with a "gold snow" virus that mutates inhabitants of a planet into machine slaves. Their ultimate goal is to mutate the inhabitants of a planet, then charge them an exorbitant price for the cure, making massive profits on others' misery.
Upon arriving on Earth, the Dekaranger give chase with Patroller and DekaBike stopping their arrival and take out a platoon of Anaroid footmen that they use to make their getaway while the Dekaranger obtain the virus vial. While Tetsu heads to Planet Leslie to further investigate the situation, the Dekaranger search through town to find any clues regarding the Gas Drinkers true intention, while they attempt to sell the concept to Rainian Agent Abrella, who refuses them due to not having both virus and cure. During the investigation, Ban encounters Mary Gold, a nightclub singer who is actually an undercover Dekaranger agent from Leslie who possesses the power to temporarily freeze time for a short period.
While falling for Ban, she fears for what is happening to her people and wishes for the Gas Drinkers to be captured and the antivirus to the disease to be obtained to save her planet. Ultimately when in the Dekabase headquarters, she freezes time long enough to seize the virus back and head back to the Gas Drinkers, but quick usage of Sen's thinking pose and Jasmine's ESPer powers tracks her down to her location.
Once there, the Dekaranger discover the Gas Drinkers and deal with Mary's betrayal, who defends her action as a means to save her people. Volka, the leader of the gang, betray her by injecting her with the entire content of virus, which would mutate her in an hour into a vector machine that would ultimately allow for Earth to befall the same fate as Leslie. Ban promises Mary they would defeat the Alienizers in an hour before having her carried off by Murphy.
Heading into combat, the Dekaranger each take out members of the Gas Drinkers: DekaBlue destroys Whiskey and a Batsuroid driving in a car, DekaYellow and DekaPink kick down Brandy, and DekaGreen takes out Gin. DekaRed attempts to defeat Vodka, but he sends out a defense of Igaroids quickly destroyed by DekaMaster. Finally on his own, Ban finally defeats Vodka with ease and obtains the antivirus, which he quickly passes off to DekaMaster who departs the area. However, the Gas Drinker leader uses a final drumpf card, traveling back to Leslie to gather a Death Tank Kaijuuki for destroying both worlds.
The Dekaranger pursue using Dekaranger Robo, but face Vodka and an army of mechanical tanks which give them much trouble until Tetsu arrives to the rescue with a Blast Buggy, a typical standard issue for many DekaBases throughout the universe. Merging with the Blast Buggy into Blast mode, Dekaranger Robo easily defeats Vodka and the army of tanks.
In the end, with Mary finally saved and the cure within her hands that it can save her home-world, she departs back to Leslie, but not without giving an affectionate farewell to Ban.

Manga adaptation
A manga adaptation of the film was published by Kadokawa Shoten in their Tokusatsu Ace magazine. The graphic novel was published on June 1, 2005.[1]
Notes
- This movie was never adapted into Power Rangers SPD due to excessive gun-play from Algolian Volka (who wielded Uzis) as well as from the mecha battle involving a giant robot with machine guns for hands, Dekaranger Robo being shot multiple times in the “stomach” at point blank range, and the giant battle is ended by the equivalent of a Zord sized shotgun.
- This movie is referenced in the title of the second episode of Hikonin Sentai Akibaranger, Lame Spirits Return! Call Forth a Crimson Full Blast of Delusion!, which features Nobuo Akagi meeting actor Ryuji Sainei and then DekaRed after entering the Delusion World as AkibaRed.
- The two students are played by Mio Fukuzumi and Azusa Yamamoto, who are best known for playing for playing Fourth Spear, Wendinu and First Spear, Furabiijo in Ninpuu Sentai Hurricaneger.
