Alright, everyone! Let's get started!
This is Ninja Squad Kakuranger!
Our tale begins long ago!
The daimyo of the Warring States era were bathing in the blood of their rivals!
"Oh, I'm so dirty, good thing I have my rival's blood to bathe in..."
... or something like that. Anyway!
Deep in the blackest of underworlds...
Sarutobi Sasuke, Kirigakure Saizou, Miyoshi Seikai Nyudo, Jiraiya...
... and Tsuruhime, the five famous ninjas...
... fought together, risking their lives to vanquish their enemies!
Hear me, comrades! Ready the Door of Sealing!
Now, we must seal away the Nurarihyon!
O door of seals, seal away eternally the power known as yoki!
That's how our five heroes sealed away the Nurarihyon, the boss of the yokai ninjas!
The rest of the yokai, having lost their power, could not open the door by themselves!
With their yoki gone, the remaining yokai fell into a deep depression!
So! Let us now move away from the age of swords, and into the modern age of reason!
Let's get hamburgers!
Ramen! Let's get hamburgers!
Ridiculous. Arguing over hamburgers or ramen... Ramen!
Hamburgers! Ridiculous. Arguing over hamburgers or ramen...
Ramen! Ridiculous. Arguing over hamburgers or ramen...
Hamburgers! Ridiculous. Arguing over hamburgers or ramen...
Get yourselves some omurice! Hamburgers!
You don't get to pick for me! Get yourselves some omurice!
You don't get to pick for me!
These two men are Sasuke and Saizou. You don't get to pick for me!
Then I'll get hamburgers! These two men are Sasuke and Saizou.
We're getting ramen! These two men are Sasuke and Saizou.
That's right! They are the descendants of Kirigakure Saizou and Sarutobi Sasuke. We're getting ramen!
Hamburgers! That's right! They are the descendants of Kirigakure Saizou and Sarutobi Sasuke.
Lay off. It's hamburgers! That's right! They are the descendants of Kirigakure Saizou and Sarutobi Sasuke.
Ramen! That's right! They are the descendants of Kirigakure Saizou and Sarutobi Sasuke.
Hamburgers! That's right! They are the descendants of Kirigakure Saizou and Sarutobi Sasuke.
Hamburgers!
This is all the cash I got, man! Hamburgers!
This is all the cash I got, man!
It's your fault, Sasuke! If you hadn't picked that fight, maybe I'd still have a job!
You're gonna blame me for that?!
YOU'RE the one who got all high an' mighty over buyin' me one stupid cup of coffee!
Hamburgers!
Ramen!
Help!!
You old freak!
Hey, you!
Are you alright, sir?
Hey, here you go!
This bag... you must take it!
Take it to the Kappa Inari Shrine on this island!
Hey, you okay? Speak to me, man!
Hey!
Sasuke!
What's up?
Check out all this cash!
You can keep a reward for yourselves! Just take it there!
Ninjas We Are!
Get a load of this crazy map...
Hey!
Hey, you kids wanna help us out?
Hey, get back here!
Pass through, oh, pass through
Where, oh where does this narrow road lead?
The road leads to the Tenjin shrine.
Oh, but will you allow me to pass?
Give me your reason, then you may pass
My child is celebrating his seventh year
We wish to make an offering there
C'mon man, we've done enough.
We've been all around, there's no Inari Shrine here.
Can't we just go?
So what about the money?
Maybe just... take it to the cops and tell 'em what happened.
Pass through, oh, pass through
Where, oh where does this narrow road lead?
The road leads to the Tenjin shrine.
Oh, but will you allow me to pass?
Give me your reason, then you may pass
What the heck... Give me your reason, then you may pass
What the heck...
We're all here together, hana ichi monme.
It's so great to win, hana ichi monme.
It's so sad to lose, hana ichi monme.
N-Ninjas!
Let's get outta here!
Saizou!
The cash... where's the cash?!
I found it!
Sasuke!
Saizou!
I thought I was dead, back there...
Run!!
Hey! Ain't anyone there?!
No way, it's shut tight! We gotta go back!
The bag!
You little creep!
No way are you gettin' this money!
What the heck?!
What the...
We did it!
You!!
Thank you, thank you, my dear little fools.
This was all a ruse to lure you here.
Have a look in the bag, won't you?
Cucumbers!
The cash... it's all cucumbers!
You creep!
What the hell is goin' on, here?!
Fools you are, indeed.
Lettin' that money blind you.
Beyond that door lies all the energy of the yokai.
If it escapes, we're all finished.
The yokai 'll regain their power once more,
and this world'll be thrown into chaos again.
Yokai?!
What's he talking about?!
You're too late to stop it, Sandayuu!
Oh no!
I'm packed full of power!
Kappa
Oh my goodness, how scary!
This is a yokai known as a kappa.
Kappa are ancient creatures, said to inhabit lakes and marshes.
They love touching the bottoms of pretty young girls.
Actually, I quite like that, too!
From now on, this world will be yokai paradise!
Let's see how you like that, Sandayuu!
Looks like there's not much of a choice, then!
Embrace yer destiny, Sasuke, Saizou!
Normally I'd thank you guys, but I can't let you get in our way!
Take a trip to hell!
Azukiarai
Nurikabe
Have a look!
Mokumokuren Have a look!
Mokumokuren
Where'd that castle come from?!
I think I'm going crazy!
It's that guy again!
Who the hell are you?!
Ye'll find out soon enough.
Once ye start fightin' the yokai.
Just brace yerselves up a moment.
Tsuruhime's awaitin' in the Phantom Castle.
Now, get ye gone!
Hey! Swords!
What is all this stuff?
It's that castle again...
Sasuke! Saizou!
Tsuruhime XXIV... has arrived!
You're Tsuruhime?
She's an angel!
Oh Sasuke, Saizou! How could you?
Why did you open that door?
She's even cuter when she's angry!
What's with the getup?
Stop mumbling to yourselves and get over here!
Okay?
We'll be pulling the swords out together.
This one?
No, that one!
You take this one.
You still don't get it? How dense can you be?
These swords can only be removed by the true heirs to a ninja bloodline.
Oh, please. What a load.
I'd like to try it.
Just to see.
Very well.
Here we go!
One... two...
Three!
I have come!
Mighty Shogun
It's them!
Our ancestors have arrived.
Friend Sarutobi, the young ones have drawn the swords, but...
Indeed, they have not the look of true ninjas.
Verily, can they be trusted?
Sarutobi, Kirigakure...
As we agreed.
Descendants. Accept now these DoronChangers.
Use them only in your time of greatest need!
Use it... what is it?
Handle them not so carelessly!
Do you hear me?
The time for battle has come.
From this day forth, Kakuranger shall you be.
Protect Tsuruhime. Vanquish the yokai that menace this world!
Do you hear me, boy?
Be certain to shave daily!
And always brush your teeth!
Godspeed!
I'll turn you all into kappamaki rolls!
Shut up! You're gonna pay for lying to us!
We'll get you!
Don't blow your top!
Let's begin.
Super Henge!
DoronChanger!
Oh dear!
Ninja White!
Tsuruhime!
Ninja Blue!
Saizou!
Ninja Red!
Sasuke!

Kakuranger!
Don't act so cool!
Farewell to this world! Yokai, begone!
Okay, baby!
Let's go!
Oh!
Sweet!
Kakure Ninpo !
Petal Storm!
Woah!
Awesome!
She's killing it out there!
Excuse me.
Kappunch!
Use the blade Kakuremaru!
Sasuke! Saizou!
Ninpo Basketball!
Go!
Don't blow your top!
You. Are. Dead!
Darling!
Honey! Darling!
'Darling' she says! Who is this bizarre new yokai?!
What's that all about?
Until next time, it's A-B-C...
A... big... secret!
Until next time! Fly awaaaay!
