Biography

Beet J. Stag, or "J", is Masato Jin's personal creation. J accompanied Masato upon his return from Hyper Space, as he first introduced himself to Takeshi Kuroki Mission 14: Ça va? Rescue Operation and later the Go-Busters Mission 15: The Gold Warrior and the Silver Buddy.

He later reveals that he can transform into the silver Go-Buster, Stag Buster (though Cheeda Nick comments it isn't so much as transforming as it is stripping) and coordinates his attacks with Beet Buster.

As Masato collects Enetron for his own purposes. He tells J to ask "Kuro-rin" for his own supply. It is revealed that he had stowed as trash data aboard a previous enemy Megazord from Hyper Space and now acts as a marker for the avatar of Masato Jin, who cannot come to Earth in person. As long as J is operational, he can conjure up the avatar of Masato to operate on Earth. Mission 16: The Man from Hyper Space.

For a while, J and Masato were restless, awaiting their official inclusion into the Go-Busters team with a steady supply of Enetron, even going after the tanks themselves. However, soon Masato is back in the chain of command and receiving supplies of Enetron. The first supply was, however, intercepted by Enter, which was made worse when it was used to construct a new Megazord, made from the stolen BC-04 blueprints. Masato soon schooled Enter when he made quick work of the new Megazord with his original BC-04, despite it having given the other Go-Busters a hard time. Mission 17: Its Name is Go-Buster Beet!

The Go-Busters' next mission saw J teamed up with Yoko while Masato, Hiromu and Ryuji were fighting a MegaZord underground. Mission 18: Cooperative Operations 3000 Meters in the Earth

J as Stag Buster appears with his team and the other Buddyroids in the Nintendo DS Tokumei Sentai Go-Busters video game.

Stag Buster

Personality

Beet J. Stag is a living testament to Masato Jin's belief that quirks make machines more interesting. J's "quirk" is that he likes appearing cool, though he has a habit of always standing in the way of Masato, which greatly annoys his creator and partner. He is also a self-proclaimed egotist, appearing to have no concerns except for his own. Mission 16: The Man from Subspace

However, underneath it all, J holds Jin in high enough regard that, should harm come to him, J would be relentless protecting him. He even once appeared to go 'rogue', when he discovered that a particular 'Messiah Card' contained the backup data that could fully restore Jin, protecting the Metaroid who carried it, while holding the Go-Busters at bay. He even went as far as threatening to destroy Jin's avatar, for the sake of getting the data, counterintuitive as it may be. Mission 40: Suffering J. and the Messiahloid

Behind the scenes

Portrayal

Beet J. Stag is voiced by Yuuichi Nakamura (中村 悠一, Nakamura Yūichi^?).

In both his BuddyRoid form and as Stag Buster, his suit actor is Daisuke Satō (佐藤 太輔, Satō Daisuke^?), whose previous role was Gokai Silver in Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger.

Sentai notes

• Stag Buster shares the motif of the Japanese Stag Beetle with KuwagaRaiger of the two-man Gouraiger team in Ninpuu Sentai Hurricaneger, just as Beet Buster shares KabutoRaiger's Japanese Rhinoceros Beetle motif.
  • Stag and Beet Buster are also a silver and gold duo, similar to the Go-On Wings from Engine Sentai Go-Onger.
• J. Stag is the only Buddy Roid that can become a Go-Buster. Because of this, he is also the only one who does not become a console for a Buster Machine.
  • He is similar to Gosei Knight on this fact, who became the first Headder to gain humanoid form to fight alongside the Goseigers. Coincidentally, Gosei Knight is one of Stag Buster's immediate color predecessors.
• J. Stag has the following quirks about his status as a Silver Ranger:
  • He is the first, and currently only, Silver Ranger to be a part of a five-man Sentai team.
  • He is the only Silver Ranger to have two immediate predecessors in color (Gosei Knight and Gokai Silver).
• J. Stag's abilities and weapons are similar to several previously used in the Kamen Rider franchise:
  • J. Stag's transformation device, the Morphin Blaster, is similar to Kamen Rider Faiz's transformation device, the Faiz Phone, as both take the form of cellphones before transforming and can be utilized as a blaster/gun.
    • Kamen Rider Diend also uses his transformation device, the Diendriver, as a gun. However, the Diendriver is always in the form of a gun, so he infact fires it in order to transform.
  • His ability to "cast off" and change form is similar to the heroes of Kamen Rider Kabuto, further due to the beetle theme that he possesses shared with the main heroes.
• He is the only Sentai Ranger to have two Ranger Keys (in the toyline, not the series), one for his Buddy Roid form, and the other for his Ranger form.
• He is the only Sentai Ranger that needs to take off his armor to become a Sentai Ranger.
• He is the only main-universe Go-Buster to not have an alternate universe counterpart in Tokumei Sentai Go-Busters Returns vs. Dōbutsu Sentai Go-Busters.
  • This is similar to how Atsushi Domyoji of the Dōbutsu Sentai Go-Busters doesn't have a main-universe counterpart.

Ranger Key and Buddy Roid Key

The Stag Buster Ranger Key (スタッグバスターレンジャーキー, Sutaggu Basutā Renjā Kī^?) and the Beet J. Stag Ranger Key (ビート・J・スタッグレンジャーキー, Bīto Jei Sutaggu Renjā Kī^?) are two Go-Buster Ranger Keys which was announced after those of the first three Go-Busters and along that of Beet Buster. While the Stag Buster key only exists as a toy, the Beet J Stag key is set to appear in Tokumei Sentai Go-Busters vs. Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger: The Movie.

The Beet J Stag key was produced long before its announcement for the film, and is the first-ever Buddy Roid key produced for the toys.
