This article is about a villain in Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger. |
Zatsurig (ザツリグ Zatsurigu) is one of the Imperial Guards accompanying Ackdos Gill to the Gigant Horse, Zatsurig has the ability to access many powers with the eye on his chest, like shoot energy blasts, increased speed, telekinesis, paralyzing people, creating forcefields and engulfing people in flames. He is also known among many in the Zangyack's ranks as the "Destroyer of Worlds" (惑星の破壊神 Wakusei no Hakaishin) due to the full extent of his powers. Among many of the planets he destroyed is Famille, incinerating Ahim's parents before her eyes.
History[]
After he aids the emperor and Dyrandoh in imprisoning Damaras for his failure to prevent Warz Gill's death, he agrees with the emperor to take revenge on the Gokaigers for the death of his son and offers to personally do the deed. Going down to Earth from one of the Imperial Guard ships, he boasts about his title and motivations while Ahim is able to recognizes him as the one who personally destroyed her parents and homeworld. She rushes in to kill him but neither she nor Joe and Gai could match his eye chest powers. While able to overwhelm the three Gokaigers, it becomes dawn so he leaves with the guard ships for sake.
When Zatsurig attacks again, all the Gokaigers fight him with Ahim leading the charge not just for revenge, but to also bring hope to the people of her planet that managed to escape it's destruction. Even though he is just as tough to beat as last time, the tables are turned when the source of his powers became noticed, with Gokai Pink stabbing the chest eye with her Gokai Saber after a Final Wave and Gokai Silver's Gold Mode distracts him. Then one by one, Gokai Pink and another Gokaiger do a duo attack each with various duo Ranger Keys to weaken him further until they bring out the Gokai Galleon Buster, with Gokai Pink as the main holder this time with the Pink Charge Rising Strike which kills him the first time.
While Dyrandoh is shocked at how his equal was able to go down, Insarn resurrects and grows Zatsurig to fight against GokaiOh and GoZyuJin. But since his chest eye did not get repaired in the enlarging process, he proved even less of a match for the two mecha or Engine Machalcon, as they form Kanzen GokaiOh to put an end to this monster for good with the Gokai Kanzen Burst.
Personality[]
Zatsurig is shown as one of the most loyal generals to the emperor alongside Dyrandoh. In addition to being one of the emperor's loyal and trusted followers as an Imperial Guard, his role in Damaras' imprisonment and his offering to avenge Warz Gill indicates that he was also close to the prince. Taking pride in his planet-destroying capabilities, he has no regrets in committing murder when it benefits him, as is the case with the Famille monarchy. Zatsurig also likes sake, which is why he retreated despite having the upper hand.
