"Is my paradise still not yet complete? With the day of my revival first approaching...Spread terror across the Earth!"
―Grand Witch Grandiene's first words when Dark Smoke Saima Beast Chanbaano's efforts awoke her.[src]

"Someday children will betray their parents and you guys are no exception. I have no intention of leaving such a dangerous existence in this world. I've let you siblings have lived until now because it was worth using"
―Grandiene's views on her children.[src]

"No! Noooooooo! How could I lose?!"
―Grand Witch Grandiene's final words before her death.[src]

Grand Witch Grandiene (大魔女 グランディーヌ Daimajo Gurandīnu) was the matriarch of the Saima Family and mother to the five siblings as well as the main antagonist of Kyukyu Sentai GoGoFive. Her ultimate goal was to consume the entire universe in Minus Energy (starting with the Earth) and turn it into a wasteland to rule over.

Grandiene Spirit Form

Four billion years, Grand Witch Grandiene was formed from Minus Energy (negativity-based energy) and desired to remake the universe to her own designs. She then gave birth to her first son Gill, but baby Gill trying to kill her and as a result, Gill was packed into a sag by Spell-Master Pierre and pushed into the depths of Hell which led Grandiene to become paranoid about betrayal of her remaining children ever since.

Some centuries ago, she then gave birth to three more children that she would use as generals; Dark King Zylpheeza Beast Baron Cobolda and Denus. The three are left to fend for themselves on Earth, with Pierre and their younger brother Drop sent to them by their mother with orders to amass enough Minus Energy to conduct a ritual in 1999 to give their mother physical form as she travels to Earth in the form of mindless Minus energy.

GoGoV[]

Grandiene is eventually revived from mindless Minus Energy by the efforts of Dark Smoke Saima Beast Chanbaano though she cannot fully return yet because they need to wait for the Grand Cross ceremony. She gives Zylpheeza the order to cause as much havoc on Earth as possible in the meantime. Tvicon TV STORY-Ep. 10: Proud Yellow

Grandiene revives Flame Saima Beast Hellgerus and Ground Saima Beast Magma Golem to guard a volcano to make it destroy Tokyo but, though Victory Robo is defeated, Grand Liner makes short work of them and stops the eruption. Tvicon TV STORY-Ep. 11: The Two Red-Hot Saima Beasts

Grandine's Incomplete Form.

The time for the Grand Cross ceremony finally arrives and the Saima Family employ Ceremonal Saima Beast Halleluyan to commence the ceremony. But the GoGoFive interrupt the ritual and destroy Halleuyan which causes Grandiene and a tidal wave she conjures up vanish. Though Grandiene is "revived", her physical form was a malformed pillar-like abomination. Having failed, she orders her sons and daughter to gather minus energy for her to complete her revival.

Grand Witch Grandiene sends Grandeo, but when it is destroyed by Victory Mars, she blames Salamandes for the failure and he begins to fall out of her favor. Tvicon TV STORY-Ep. 30: Escape! The Planet of Darkness

After the destruction of the Infinity Chain Card, Grandiene completely loses her faith in Salamandes he allowed a valuable weapon to be destroyed. Tvicon TV STORY-Ep. 39: Break the Infinity Chains

Desperate to regain favor, Salamandes employs the help of Spiritworld Guard Saima Chaos attempts to lure the GoGoFive to Ghost Saima Hell in order to regain favor with his mother, but Grandiene traps all of them there, instead to get rid of their enemies.

After Salamandes' death and destruction of the Dark Star, a livid Grandiene takes matters into her own hands as she seals herself away and use Saima Paradico to gather the Minus Energy she needs to complete her physical form. Grandiene then deceives Cobolda into believing that she can make him a Dark King to motivate into fighting a hopeless battle against the GoGoV. When Cobolda engages four of the GoGoV, Grandiene take the opportunity to psychically force Zyplheeza into taking them all out with Cobolda's bazooka, resulting in Cobolda's death. When Zylpheeza demands answers for the ruthless act, influenced by her time with Gil, Grandiene reveals she never truly cared for her childrens' well-being and only keep those who are useful to her as pawns alive while killing the others before they could betray her. She tries to kill most of the GogoFive (minus GoRed) by burning them to death through sacrificing Zylpheeza but Matoi defeats her by striking her with V-Mode Punch which saved his siblings. However, Grandiene survives and engages the GoGoFive as a giant and though, she manages to overwhelm the Victory Robo before turning invisible, the GogoFive use the Victory Robo's scanners to determine her location. They quickly form Max Victory Robo and, using Max Nova, force her to become visible again and then continuously bombard her with it until she is destroyed.

But Grandiene's physical death allows her disembodied spirit to commence her plan of enveloping Earth while causing numerous disasters worldwide, intend to expand her reach across the galaxy. She revives Salamandes at Pierre's request along with revived Zylpheeza as their mindless minion. But when Shou and Nagare defeat Salamandes after he killed Zylpheeza, Grandiene revive her sons as mindless Destruction Gods that she later possesses with the intent to destroying Earth and then spread herself across the universe. But she is finally destroyed when Max Victory Robo Sigma Project, powered by the GoGoV's Rescue Spirits, obliterate the Destruction Gods with enough positive energy to reach the rest of Grandiene's being in Earth's upper atmosphere and complete extinguish her.
