So hot...
You're completely drenched!
I had a job interview. Had to walk from three stations over.
And why walk, exactly?
Isn't it obvious? I'm trying to save money.
Seriously?
What? That a problem?
Things are tight this month, okay?
Rikuo...
Please, protect Fire Candle.
What's going on, Lady Bouquet?
I was just praying.
Fire Candle has been seeming... precarious, lately.
That's Bouquet the Loving for you! But I wouldn't worry.
He's probably just going a little nutso from the heat.
I hope that's all it is.
Come and get some juicy freshly fried chicken!
- Gimme some of that. - Welcome!
I meant your ring!
Disrupting business is a crime, y'know...
Sir.
Engage.
SENTAI RING!
IT'S MORPHIN' TIME!
GO-BUSTERS!
Here I come.
Engage!
SENTAI RING!
SHINKENGER!
No one can keep up with my super speed!
Not the chickens, and not you!
Pretty fast, yeah.
Take this!
But I can see you!
I need more.
More...
More power!
Go! Winner! Number One! Go! Winner! Number One!
Another day, another niche showdown...
Where the victor always heats the fight up!
There's no comparison, you're one of a kind! So now...
Break free! Break free!
Beasts here and there and 50 wishes are now...
Slumbering in the ring with the sword!
Time to blast past all the static as you...
Jump, oh yeah! Jump, oh yeah yeah!
The distant hopes of a precious universe, on a journey to the end of time.
Whether it's an illusion or reality or a fantasy...
It's all flicker-flicker-flickering in a vague haze!
Stand resolute and sound off...
The impulse to never give up and always stay strong!
(Let’s Clap!) Now's the time! (Let’s Clap!) Here we go! (Bash!)
As the bell rings for victory!
Da-Da-Dance now, as you reach for Number One!
With the light of the ring showing you the way!
Clap-Clap-Clap your hands to be Number One!
You noble outcasts on your way!
Da-Dance brilliantly now, Number One!
As you shine in the ring!
Now dance! Go! (Winner!) Go! (Winner!) Go!
Stand out as the Number One Sentai Gozyuger!
Best Price? Worst Problem?
I Spy Savings!
Got business with someone?
And you are...?
Look at that.
I guess it's me.
Rei?!
Been a while, Rikuo.
I've got some questions for you, Rei!
If this is about Ichikawa Oto...
It's exactly what you're imagining.
The one who took her...
It was me.
It's so, so hot! Sheesh.
Gotta save on the power bill!
Saving is how we craft the future!
The choice of all intelligent beings.
Humanity, I'll teach you how to save.
I'm beat...
Gotta save! No water.
Save on water.
Saving on fabric! You can have these, instead.
Saving
Riding the bus?! Too luxurious!
You're gonna run to the station, and you're gonna save!
Knock it off, No-One!
The Gozyugers, eh?
I am No-One World's Saving Number One!
And if you intend on getting in the way of my frugality, you'll get no mercy!
Saving?
We've got this.
Since we've got...
Professor Hoeru on our side.
Yeah.
No one's taking the Saver Number One spot from me.
You're on!
Saving Number One Battle!
Ready...? Go!
This is heavenly...
I could use some more hot water, though.
At times like that...
There we go...
The water is... a bit higher, now.
Toss some plastic bottles into the tub,
and you can save on hot water.
Huh?
This one's done. Can I get a new ketchup bottle?
- Sure.
Hold it.
This ketchup bottle might seem empty...
There's more!
You'd be surprised how much more you can get out.
Why, that is quite the price!
Never buy a boxed lunch unless it's got a discount sticker on it.
It'll save you a bunch of money.
How you like that?!
Hoerucchi... must have it rough.
Is that the best you can do? I guess I shouldn't expect much from a human.
Say what?
For instance, consider these lunches.
You just need to apply the discount sticker yourself!
You save that much more!
What the hey?
I never thought of that...
Stop being impressed. That's a crime.
But wait, there's more!
From what I can see, you fail to grasp a fundamental aspect of saving.
Huh?
Saving is the first step towards a dream.
In my case, I dream of being chosen as a Number One by the queen,
which is why I am trying to endure these hard times.
That's his idea of enduring?
I guess?
What about you? Do you have a dream?
I save because I have a dream!
I can bear the hard times!
Saving without a dream...
...Is just being cheap.
Just being...
CHEAP
Cheap?
- Cheap? - Cheap.
Cheap.
- Cheap. - Cheap.
Cheap.
CHEAP
Take your cheap butt back to school!
Cheap ol' cheapskate!
I guess I better fix the bus stop.
How many years has it been...
Since we last had a conversation like this.
That was back when you had just started being an idol.
You used to talk about becoming the ultimate idol...
So you could make me smile.
You remember that?
Rei...
You thought I was the greatest, back then.
Even copied the color of my eyes.
Rei! This kidnapping thing is wrong.
Oto has family that cares about her!
Please, let her go.
Just as serious as ever, too.
Thing is...
It was hanging around with you...
That sent me down the wrong path.
Rei!
Rei? Rei!
Rei—!
I already died once, for your sake.
Wouldn't you say that this time...
You oughta save me?
This time?
There's something I need you to do, in other words.
Help me out here, Rikuo.
You're the only one I can turn to.
Hey, Hoeru?
Cheap...
Am I... cheap?
Well, he's gonna be useless for a while.
- Gimme my usual. - Coming up.
Do we know anyone else who's good at saving?
Can't be high-class and luxurious while worrying about money...
What about you, Grandkin?
I...
I was born with basically nothing.
Have plenty of experience with privation.
To hell with roughing it at this point.
I do, for the record, try to be conscientious about saving.
You think you can handle him, Ryuteya?
I even cook my own meals, instead of hiring a chef.
That is quite the act of saving.
Ohhh, right, he's a rich boy.
You guys look screwed. Time to pray...
To Godness Kumade!
Kumatan.
Do you... save money?
Save? What's that even mean?
Some kinda new flavor of honey?
Bear bear bear!
That was the dumbest question I've heard in my life!
- Quiet you! - How stupid!
I'm just some cheapskate.
My saving isn't worth it.
He's down in the dumps.
Thing is, Hoeru... You like saving money, right?
You outta your mind?
Who would save money if they didn't have to?
Except, when you first moved in, Tohno...
Well, you were even more rude and quiet, but...
Tohno, are you eating bread crusts again?
They're cheap.
Still, though...
Actually, I have an idea. Let me see those.
Hey!
Ta-da! I flavored them like fried buns.
Give it a try.
They're bread crust...
But they can taste this good?
Exactly! In life, it's all about the details.
- Good? - Delicious!
Now that you mention it, yeah...
Besides, you always looked like you enjoyed saving money.
I did?
Was it fun?
Did I really seem to enjoy it?
Yeah. Sure did.
Bear?
That No-One's right.
I might've forgotten about the most important thing...
When it comes to saving money.
I've come up with the ultimate method for saving money!
Huh?
Listen up, humans.
I'm going to take every one of you...
And save the world the trouble of dealing with you!
Time to save~!
CLAP YOUR HANDS!
Engage!
GOZYU EAGLE! TYRANNO! UNICORN! POLAR!
You okay? Get out of here!
Now's your chance!
You again?
What's a dreamless loser like you here for?
I was on my own.
I had nothing, and every day was empty.
But saving...
Gave me something to enjoy in life.
The satisfaction from getting my money's worth...
The sense of accomplishment when my tricks worked out.
Saving isn't a way of depriving yourself to deal with pain!
It's nothing more than something to help you achieve your dreams!
Wrong.
To me, saving is its own reward.
I enjoy saving...
And that's why I do it.
Engage!
CLAP YOUR HANDS!
GOZYU WOLF!
Seize It!
Let's seize it! Number Ooooone!
Go! Go! Gozyuger!
I'll sacrifice the present for the future...
Putting the fun stuff on hold!
Saving No-One!
House Ledger
And nothing beats a hand-written ledger!
In The Black
I'm not cheap.
I save because I like saving.
The lone wolf...
Gozyu Wolf!
Water that you washed rice with...
Is great for compost.
Number One Battle!
Ready...? Go!
This seems excessive!
Time to get me a piece.
SENTAI RING!
Supernova mixed with super speed...
FLASHMAN! GO-BUSTERS!
FINISH!
Outta the way!
We'll hold him off! Deal with the other one!
Yeah. I've got this.
Starting now...
You're my prey!
A gold Tega Sword?!
Talk about luxurious!
Savings!
There! Now you don't have a hand to count on!
You think?
I've been fighting barehanded all my life, pal.
I don't need Tega Sword...
Wh-Why does he seem stronger now?!
Wh-What the?
So barbaric!
Half-Off Storm!
I...
No matter what the situation, will always try to save!
Saving money is a part of my soul.
And now you've got 50% less power.
That's half of it, gone.
What?!
W-W-Wait a second—!
Besides...
All you've been doing is trying to force other people to save.
You haven't saved a damn thing yourself.
So, let's start with you.
FINISH FINGER!
Here's your savings!
WOLF!
I-I lose...
Use your finishing attack to make it a flashy end.
Nah.
I'm gonna save it.
Huh?
He really knows what he's doing!
I am the Number One Saver.
Winner! Gozyu Wolf!
Fire Candle.
How about you cool off with this?
Engage!
SENTAI RING!
BOUKENGER!
How about you fork over those rings, now?
Why?
Why can't I beat you still?!
I don't care who—
Somebody...
Give me the power!
Wait... Is that...?
The hell is this thing?
Are you gonna make me stronger?
Don't! If you use it, you'll—
ORCA BOOSTER!
TRUE
He changed?!
I can feel it...
The flames are dancing!
ORCA BOOSTED NOVA!
Awesome! Get a load of this power!
What the heck is that gun?! This is getting crazy!
Watch yourselves!
As long as he has that thing, he's on a whole other level!
Byakuya! Where have you been?!
We need to work together to beat him!
Whoa there!
Everyone...
I'm so sorry.
Chan-Riku?
You...
What are you doing?!
Next Episode
Next Number One Battle!
What's this about?!
A Traitorous Rikuo...
You'll save me, won't you?
It wants... blood...
A Berserk Fire Candle...
Gimme some power, you stupid whale!
Who Will Claim The Orca Booster...?!
The Lonely Star, The Awakened Wolf!
