Allies

Bull Black

Black Knight Bull Black (黒騎士ブルブラック Kuro Kishi Buru Burakku, 17-25) is a vengeful warrior. He is the original Black Knight who seeks revenge for his young brother Krantz, who was killed by Zahab during the Barban's assault on their home planet, Taurus. Bull Black originally brought the Lights of Ginga to Earth 3,000 years ago after a long fight. After lying to Sambash that finding them would be easy, Sambash blasted him and caused him to fall into the Earth, as good as dead. Lacking the strength to revive himself, all he cam think about is revenge.

3,000 years later, Hyuuga falls down the same hole as Bull Black. Using the last of his power, Bull Black absorbs Hyuuga's body, using his Earth power to revive himself.

His original goal is to find the Lights of Ginga, to take revenge on Zahab. His means are selfish, as he does not care about hurting innocent humans to reach his goal, which put him at odds with the Gingamen who do care, who offers to be their ally. But Bull Black refuses, choosing to fight alone with Gou Taurus.

In the next few episodes, Bull Black feels Hyuuga, still inside of his body, trying to stop him from pursuing revenge, resulting in chest pains.

In a final act of revenge, Bull Black plans to send powerful energy into Earth's core at Mt. Kongou, destroying the Barban and Earth in the process. However, Gou Taurus wants nothing to do with it. After revealing to Ryouma that Hyuuga was inside of him, he says that to liberate Hyuuga is when he dies.

After Krantz's spirit begs him to stop hurting people, Bull Black releases Hyuuga and takes in the crater's energy, dying in the process. His spirit finds peace after reuniting with Krantz. Later, Bull Black's spirit gives Hyuuga the Bull Riot and the powers of the Black Knight.

When these five come together, they combine to become a finishing weapon, with the attack Kiba Imperial Wrath (機刃の激輪 Kiba no Gekirin). The Kibas draw power from the Star Beasts' planets. The Gingamen channel their Earth power into them to call upon the Star Beasts' power and later to revive them when they were petrified, also obtaining "newly born" power. They help in the five main Star Beasts' transformation into Silver Star Beasts. They can transform into any weapon the Gingamen choose:

Ginga Red uses his Rod in the Blazing Flames Juugeki (猛火獣撃 Mōka Jūgeki) attack. Moak creates more advanced rods in episode 47 to fight the Earth Demon Beast. These Rods can be used with the Beast Armor Shine or by the Gingamen in human form. They can perform an attack called the Senkou Juugekidan ((閃光獣撃弾 Senkō Jūgekidan, Flashing Beast Attack Bullet).
• Bull Riot (ブルライアット Buru Raiatto): Hyuuga's sword that functions as his transformation device, using it to transform into the Black Knight by using the transformation call "Knight Reincarnation" (騎士転生 Kishi Tensei).

• Shining Beast Armor (獣装光 Jūsōkō): An armor upgrade the team receives from the power of the Lights of Ginga. It is summoned by the command "Roar! Lights of Ginga!" (ほえろ！ギンガ光！ Hoero!

  • Flashing Star Beast Sword (閃光星獣剣 Senkō Seijūken): Upgraded from the Star Beast Swords.
  • Beast Armor Claw (獣装の爪 Jūsō no Tsume): A brace with two claw-like blades that is worn on the left forearm.
  • Mobile Steed Galeo Pulsar (機動馬ガレオパルサー Kidōba Gareo Parusā): With the knowledge from the deceased Bull Black that the Lights of Ginga can change shape depending on the user's will, the Gingaman, while in Shining Beast Armor form, can gather the Lights of Ginga to create the Galeo Pulsar, a motorcycle that is themed after Ginga Red's Star Beast Ginga Leon. When summoned, it temporarily removes the Beast Armor enhancements from the Gingamen. Attacks include "Lion War Blast", as well as its finishing move, "Lion Shining Armor" (獅子の装光 Shishi no Sōkō), in which it attacks by ramming into its target with the flaming Lights of Ginga energy. After a Majin is defeated, the Galeo Pulsar changes back into the Gingamans' Beast Armor enhancements, which are then returned to them.
• Knight Axe (ナイトアックス Naito Akkusu): A cursed weapon that Hyuuga receives from Pucrates that has the power to destroy the Star Soul Jewel that sustains Zahab. As Hyuuga had sacrificed his Earth power, only he can wield it as Ryouma once tried to pick it up in Episode 41, only for the energy feedback from the Axe caused him great pain. The Knight Axe is destroyed by Zahab in the finale, but not before damaging his Star Soul Jewel.

Star Beasts

The Star Beasts (星獣 Seijū) are sentient beings, originally from different planets (Galeon, Galcon, Garilla, Gaverick, Gat, Taurus, Rhinos, Phoenix and Bitus). They help the Gingaman. The Gingaman's Earth power increases when man and beast combine. When the Gingaman channel the energy of the Star Beasts' home planet through their Kiba Swords the first five Star Beasts are able to transform into Silver Star Beasts (銀星獣 Ginseijū) by the command "Great Rebirth, Silver Star Beasts!" (大転生銀星獣 Daitensei Ginseijū).

The planets of Star Beasts GingaRhinos, GingaPhoenix and GingaBitus were destroyed by the Barban long before. They were converted into Steel Star Beasts (鋼星獣 Kōseijū) by Biznella under his control when they were rendered dormant. After recharging them with the Lights of Ginga, Biznella set them against the Gingamen. The fact that they were Star Beasts made Super Armor Shine Gingaioh and Bull Taurus reluctant to fight them. However, the Steel Star Beasts were freed from their programming by the brotherhood of their fellow Star Beasts on the night of the "Star Festival". They then destroyed Biznella near the finale. They aided the Gingamen in many of their battles. However, in the Gingaman vs. Megaranger special, Giga Rhinos and Giga Phoenix bid farewell to the Gingamen after fighting Ghelmadix. Giga Bitus is not killed after two of them are sacrificed.
