Daijinryuu [Citation needed]from 23 April 2023 (UTC), or Daizinryu[1] (大神龍 Daijinryū, Great God Dragon) is a giant being resembling a Chinese dragon who served as a neutral antagonist in Gosei Sentai Dairanger.
History[]
First appearing during the Dairangers' battle with Pachinko Master, Daijinryu destroyed most of Tokyo before moving on to attack other cities across the world, including the Gorma Palace. According to Kameo, the reason for its appearance is to stop the human race's foolish conflict by destroying the Earth.

Returning to Tokyo when the Dairangers and Pachinko Master resume their battle, Daijinryuu crushes the Gorma warrior beneath its foot before blasting Dairen'Oh apart. As Kameo transforms into Daimugen and took RyuseiOh into his shell to protect him, Daijinryuu attempts to crush him underfoot as well but relents after Master Kaku and the Gorma Emperor negotiate a ceasefire, leading it to depart for space.

A short while later, Daijinryuu returns to Earth after sensing the immense power of Akomaru's demon bodyguard Ikazuchi. Deciding to eliminate the root cause of the conflict, Daijinryuu enchanted the citizens of Tokyo to jump off the edge of buildings to their deaths, requiring Master Kaku to use his Qi Power to save them. Satisfied that his point had been made, Daijinryuu left and Kaku decided to disband the Dairangers rather than risk another confrontation. TV STORY-Ep. 44: Impression!! You Cry Too
During the Dairangers' final battle with Shadam, Daijinryuu returns for the third and final time to kill both the Gorma and the Dairangers by destroying the Gorma Palace. After both the Earth Shaking Jewel and the Lai-Lai Jewels are scattered by the spirit of Master Kaku, Ryo ended the conflict by killing Shadam which leads to Daijinryuu finally leaving Earth for good.
