Icon-ninningerThis article is about a giant robo and its components in Shuriken Sentai Ninninger.

Sky OtomoNin Lion Ha-Ojo (天空のオトモ忍ライオンハオージョウ Tenkū no Otomo Nin Raionhaōjō, lit. Sky Companion Ninja Lion Castle) is a mecha in Shuriken Sentai Ninninger modelled after an armored tank. This colossal mecha is piloted by AkaNinger after he receives his powered-up form, AkaNinger Chozetsu. Lion-Ha-Ojo 's soul is manifested in the form of a human, known as "Shishi-Oh".

Overview

Lion Ha-Ojo's soul can take the human form called Shishi-Oh while leaving his true body petrified into a statue on top of a mountain. But once Akaninger was able to use the Chozetsu Shoubu Changer, Shishi-Oh, as the soul of the Sky OtomoNin, resides within the bracelet for Akaninger Chozetsu to be able to summon this colossal ally by using the Sky OtomoNin Shuriken: Lion in the same way he summons his other OtomoNins, which activates the Lion Ha-Ojo by transferring Shishi-Oh from the Chozetsu Shoubu Changer into the OtomoNin's body.

In this form, it is capable of displaying numerous abilities. Among them are flying, releasing freezing mist that immobilizes giant Youkai and turning the sky dark. It has multiple cannons and turrets on its body that used as weapons. The armored tank-based design also grants this colossal mecha tremendous firepower as well as defensive capabilities that even a Giant Advanced Youkai that previously overpowered King Shurikenjin, couldn't deal any sort of damage against this new OtomoNin ally of the Ninningers. In this mode, Akaninger Chozetsu rides on top of the back of this beast to fight alongside the mecha's soul, Shishi-Oh, that resides within it.

Lion Change Lion Ha-Oh (ライオン変化ライオンハオー Raion Henge Raion Haō, lit. "Lion Change Lion Lord") is the humanoid form of Lion Ha-Ojo. To transform into this mode, AkaNinger Chozetsu spins the Sky OtomoNin Shuriken: Lion while piloting it and announces Lion Transformation (ライオン変形 Raion Henkei). The Lion Ha-Ojo starts to stand upright upon summoning thunderstorms to protect it during the transformation, with its front legs rotating downwards to become the arms and the rear portion splits up to become the legs. The Giant Sky OtomoNin Shuriken - Lion is then removed from the body and replaced with the Lion Ha-Ojo's own head, with the Giant Sky OtomoNin Shuriken: Lion placed on the void left as the new head (essentially the Giant Sky OtomoNin Shuriken: Lion and the Lion Ha-Ojo's head switching places) to complete the transformation. AkaNinger Chozetsu is transferred into the Lion Ha-Ojo's mouth as the external cockpit in which he can control the colossal robot. Piloting a mecha of this size requires the perfect co-operation between AkaNinger Chozetsu and the mecha's soul, Shishi-Oh residing within it to maximize its potential, something even which Yoshitaka Igasaki was unable to do years ago as the Last Ninja.

Lion Ha-Oh is armed with a pair of 'Giant Shurikens' (大シュリケン Dai Shuriken), originally the Lion Ha-Ojo's tail, to slice Giant Advanced Youkai with, and like its Lion Ha-Ojo form, it comes with incredible offensive and defensive power that even Giant Advanced Youkai aren't able to deal damage upon and take hits against. Lion Ha-Oh can rotate its upper torso to refract beams fired on it by Giant Youkai right back at them for a taste of their own medicine. The two Giant Shurikens can even combine into one even bigger energy Shuriken and perform the 'Giant Shuriken Crush' (大シュリケンクラッシュ Dai Shuriken Kurasshu) on the Giant Advanced Youkai and deal multiple damage hits to it.

Lion Ha-Oh's finisher is 'Lion Chozetsu Slash' (ライオン超絶斬り Raion Chozetsu Giri, lit. Lion Super-Extreme Slash), where Lion Ha-Oh transforms back into its Lion form and AkaNinger Chozetsu rides on it, harnessing the OtomoNin's energy to the Ninja Ichiban-shoubu-tou, and delivers a powerful horizontal slash as Lion Ha-Ojo charges at full speed towards the enemy, before rapidly transforming back to Lion Ha-Oh to complete the finisher.


Ha-Oh Shurikenjin


"Ha-Oh! Ha-Oh! Rin, Yehaw, Wassoi! Ha-Oh! Ha-Oh! Rin, Yehaw, Wassoi! Ha-O~h Shurikenjin!"
―Transformation sound.[src]

Ha-Oh Shurikenjin (覇王シュリケンジン Haō Shurikenjin, lit. "Lord Throwing Star God") is the combined form of Shuriken Gattai Shurikenjin, Bison Change BisonKing and Lion Change Lion Ha-Oh.

Lion Ha-Oh's torso spins about so that the mecha's back faces front. Then BisonKing disasembles: his legs attach to Lion Ha-Oh's forearms as cannons, while the rest of BisonKing attaches to Lion Ha-Oh's front. Then ShurikenJin sits in the "throne" of Lion Ha-Oh's back (similiar to how ShinobiMaru sits in the ShurikenJin "throne"). Finally, the Sky Otomo Nin Shruiken merges on the top of the "visor"-like head of the throne.


Ha-Oh Gekiatsu Dai-Oh

Ha-Oh Gekiatsu Dai-Oh (覇王ゲキアツダイオー Haō Gekiatsudaiō, lit. "Lord Intense Heat Great King") is the combined form of Shuriken Gattai Gekiatsu Dai-Oh, Bison Change BisonKing and Lion Change Lion Ha-Oh.

Notes

  • This is the first OtomoNin owned by the Ninningers whose name doesn't end with "-maru". The reason why is because both the "Lionmaru" and "Shishimaru" names are under copyright by P-Production's Lion-Maru tokusatsu franchise.
  • Lion Ha-Ojo is the first Super Sentai mecha to have its pilot and cockpit outside of its body, mainly in its mouth.
  • The requirement for AkaNinger Chozetsu to pilot Lion Ha-Ojo and Lion Ha-Oh resembles that of Bakuryuu Styracosaurus and Bakuryuu Gattai MaxOhJa from Bakuryuu Sentai Abaranger in which the power of AbareMax (AbaRed's powered-up form) is required to pilot it effectively.

Portrayal

  • Shishi-Oh is portrayed by Yukio Yamagata (山形 ユキオ Yamagata Yukio).

Behind the Scenes

  • When Shishi-Oh leaps down from a tree to pounce on Takaharu, he shouts "GAO!". Aside from being a clue to his character's identity, Yukio Yamagata would shout this as the first song lyric of Gaoranger Hoero!!, the opening theme for Hyakujuu Sentai Gaoranger, another series that sported a red lion mech.
