After months of rumor and speculation, new magazine scans have give us our first real look at the 9th Kyoryuger!
Kyoryu Violet is indeed portrayed by series narrator Shigeru Chiba! His character’s name is Doctor Ulshade, inventor of the GabRevolvers. Ulshade is accompanied by his granddaughter, who may be poised to take over his duties as a Kyoryuger.
Violet’s Voltasaur is a plesiosaur-inspired Mecha known as “Plezuon” which transforms to Robot Mode, referred to as “Plezu-Oh.” When combined with Gabutyra and Bunpatchy, Plezuon creates Exploding KyoRyuJin!
Stay tuned to Kyoryuger this July for Violet action!

Apparently some new info has begun circulating about the soon to be revealed 9th Kyoryuger, Kyoryu Violet! According to information via AlphaHeroShock Kyoryu Violet’s actor will be none other than Shigeru Chiba! If you don’t know already Mr. Chiba is not only the narrator of the series but also the voice of the Gaburevolver itself!
According to the info provided his character will Doctor Ulshade, the first person of the modern age to be a Kyoryuger! Also, he’s alive, meaning he won’t be a Spirit Ranger like Ramirez and Tesai. Actually Doctor Ulshade is also the man who created the Gaburevolvers explaining why the Spirit Rangers do not use revolvers. It would also seem that he is not a currently active Kyoryuger because he wanted a quiet and peaceful life.
Mr. Chibas’ tweets from a couple weeks ago, those pertaining to him filming a henshin scene, would certainly indicate that this rumor is true.

After the first teaser for Zyuden Sentai Kyoryuger’s summer film streamed a couple days ago we got our first impressions of the latest Kyoryuger rumored to be called Kyoryunavy. As it turns out his name is actually Deathryuger, and if the name doesn’t imply it enough that he’s evil then the trailer should as he’s seen fighting Kyoryured. Deathryuger is an ancient knight who prefers to be called D and has kidnapped an idol acquaintance of Daigo’s named Meeko. His goal is to rejuvinate the #00 Zyudenchi and revive Tobaspino. Perhaps music is the key?
It’s also been confirmed that Deathryuger will have a voice actor, implying that there will be no out of suit actor for the character. But fans rejoice! Deathryugers’ voice actor will be none other than Mamoru Miyano, the voice behind Ultraman Zero and Gundam 00’s Setsuna F Seiei!
