Sentai Sixth Ranger

This article is about a set of rangers in the Super Sentai series.

Gai and 15 Sixth Rangers — Gai Ikari (Gokai Silver) and the 15 Sixth Rangers before him.

Sixth Heroes — The Sixth Rangers
(Before Gokai Silver joins)

These are the Sentai 6th Rangers. After 2 unofficial prototypes, the first Sixth Ranger appeared in Kyōryū Sentai Zyuranger. There have been 22 official sixth Rangers, including 1 replacement. They generally appear in the 17th episode of their respective series, but there have been exceptions.

Out of the 22 official Sixth Rangers, 7 have been Silver (making it the most common color for 6th Rangers), 6 have been Gold, 3 have been White, 2 have been Green, 2 have been Black, and 1 has been Red. Ressha Sentai ToQger introduces Orange as a new color, with ToQ 6gou.

Personality wise, most 6th Rangers have been hardcore loners (DragonRanger, TimeFire, GaoSilver, AbareKiller, Bouken Silver, Go-On Gold, Gosei Knight, ToQ 6gou). But some are comedy relief (KibaRanger, MegaSilver, Shurikenger, Shinken Gold, Gokai Silver, Beet Buster, Stag Buster, Kyoryu Gold, StarNinger, Zyuoh The World) and some are wise voices of reason (KingRanger, DekaBreak, MagiShine, Go-On Silver). It should also be noted that being a 6th Ranger is not necessarily a numeric designation (IE: AbareKiller was actually the 5th member of his respective team and Beet & Stag Buster were the 4th and 5th members respectively) but rather that they serve as a "supplementary" teammate. In series where a 6th Ranger is absent, an Extra Hero (Carrangers's Signalman, Gingaman's Black Knight) will frequently serve in their place.
