Space Bosozoku Bowzock

The Space Bosozoku Bowzock (宇宙暴走族ボーゾック Uchū Bōsōzoku Bōzokku) are the fictional antagonists of the Super Sentai series, Gekisou Sentai Carranger, that battle the Carrangers in order to destroy the Earth.

Fictional history

Based in the BB Saloon bar in the Baribarian spacecraft, the Bowzock are a gang of alien hooligans who have no regard for the laws of traffic and normally posed as trouble makers for the intergalactic police. The Bowzock also hold a yearly festival, the Bowzock Matsuri, where they abduct a person to serve as a sacrificial receptacle for a bolt of lightning made of amassed cosmic evil and suck both it and the life out of the host to recuperate from a year's worth of exhaustion. But a chance encounter with the disguised Exhaus leads to the Gynamo having the Bowzock blow up every planet before reaching Earth where the Bowzock are forced to deal with the Carrangers. In time, Exhaus reveals himself and that he used the Bowzock to pave the way for his master plan to create an intergalactic highway in place of the destroyed worlds. Once obtaining the Carrangers' Carmagic Power, with no more threat to his plans, Exhaus turns on the Bowzock and sets the Baribarian on a crash course for Earth. Luckily, the Bowzock put aside their differences with the Carrangers and help save the Earth and become decent members of society soon after.

Exhaus

Reckless Dash Emperor Exhaus (暴走皇帝エグゾス Bōsōgōtei Eguzosu, 35–48) is the main antagonist of the series who hired the Bowzock to do his dirty work. His ultimate plan was to build a giant road for aliens across the Milky Way, and to destroy Earth because it was in the way of the road. Exhaus kidnapped Dappu and tried to drain his Kurumagic Power to use for his own robots, turning it into Akumagic Power, but his plan backfired when Dappu overloaded the robots with power. He betrayed the Bowzock and took over the operation personally, only to fight the Carrangers personally when he absorbed the evil energies of the entire universe into his body to assume a fighting form, Exhaus Super-Strong (エグゾス・スーパーストロング Eguzosu Sūpā Sutorongu, 48). In this form he seemed unbeatable, damaging both VRV Robo and RV Robo, but was fed stale imo-youkan by Gynamo, causing him to weaken, revert to his original form and shrink to human size so he could be finished off by the Carrangers.

Emperor Exhaus is voiced by Osamu Kobayashi.

Ritchhicker

Instructor Ritchhiker (リッチハイカー教授 Ritchihaikā Kyōju, 16–28) is an alien who Gynamo hired to help the Bowzock as their "Evil Director of Human Resources", devising the plans to deal with the Carrangers and Signalman, whom he had a grudge on from putting him in jail. However, during the Bowzock Matsuri festival, Ritchhicker is struck by a lightning bolt made of pure evil cosmic energy that turns him into RitchRitchhiker (リッチリッチハイカー RitchiRitchihaikā, 28–31). With his increased intellect, RitchRitchiker kicked out Gynamo and Zonette and takes over as leader of the Bowzock with the promises of riches to the space bikers. From there, RitchRitchiker uses Braking to steal RV Robo from the Carrangers before using his robot to take a building holding the Study Book Fair to educate his forces. But it leads to his robot's defeat by the VRV Machines with RitchRitchhiker upgrading Braking as he proceeds to capture VRV Master. However, it results in RitchRitchiker's death when is consumed in the blaze caused by Braking being finally destroyed by VRV Robo.

Ritchhicker is voiced by Nobuo Tanaka.

Evil Mecha

Zokurangers

A short-lived parody of the Carrangers, the Boso Sentai Zokuranger (暴走戦隊ゾクレンジャー Bōsō Sentai Zokurenjā, 25) was founded by SS Pamaan. While they originally used the Zokuranger Ball, the Zokurangers obtain the Zokuren Bazooka and Zonnette's Fanbelt Crystal necklace to power it. But SS Pamaan is killed.

Wumpers

Combatant Wumpers (戦闘員ワンパー Sentōin Wanpā, 1–47) are the Bowzock's multi-colored henchmen, able to shoot ink from their octopus-like mouths. They are contained in Zelmoda's giant octopus jar, similar to that of aquatic pets. They come in many colors; green, blue, white and pink. White tended to be rarer than others and were often the butt of a quick gag.

Gorotsuki

The Gorotsuki (ゴロツキ Gorotsuki, Rogue/Thug) are citizens of the Baribarian, the planet-like satellite where the Bowzock reside, they are chosen to find and fight the Carrangers, as the "monster of the week." for the series. When defeated, most of them eat imo-youkan, a yellow cube-shaped food made from jellied sweet potatoes to grow. It has to be from one store, Imocho, for this to happen, otherwise they shrink. As Grotch found out, out-of-date Imo-youkan from Imocho only enlarges the consumer for a short while until he reverts to original size. Gorotsuki had a habit of saying their names a lot, usually having them at the end of sentences.
