Seijuu Sentai Gingaman (星獣戦隊ギンガマン Seijū Sentai Gingaman), translated into English as Starbeast Squadron Gingaman,[2] is TOEI Company Limited's twenty-second production of the Super Sentai television series. Its footage has been used in Power Rangers: Lost Galaxy It is the first Super Sentai series that bore the "-man" suffix since Choujin Sentai Jetman since the writers wanted the series to have a retro feel.[citation needed] This series is not to be confused with the one-time villainous but humorous Sentai from Chikyuu Sentai Fiveman, the Ginga Sentai Gingaman. Every episode of Seijuu Sentai Gingaman begins with the statement: "The Starbeasts: They are mysterious animals that fight to protect the peace of the Galaxy!" 星獣、それは銀河の平和を守る為に戦う、神秘の動物達の事である！(Seijū, sore wa ginga no heiwa mamoru tameni tatakau, shinbi no dōbutsu-tachi no koto de aru!)
[edit] PlotThree thousand years ago, the Space Pirates Barban invaded Earth. The Starbeasts and the first Gingaman, warriors of the Ginga forest, fought them with the mystical power called Earth and eventually were able to imprison them. The Ginga people later cloaked their forest within marked boundaries and passed on the duty of Ginga warriors through generations. Hyuuga, Hayate, Gouki, Hikaru and Saya are chosen as the 133rd warriors of the Star Beast Swords. Ryouma is very happy that his elder brother Hyuuga succeeds to the honorable title. When Elder Ohghi holds the succession ceremony of Star Beast Swords, an earthquake breaks the seal of Barban. Ohghi orders the 133rd warriors to get the GingaBraces hidden in Roaring Mountain. However, the Barban attacks them to prevent the birth of the new Gingamen. During the battle, Hyuuga got swallowed into a crack in the ground which Captain Zahab of the Barban created. Enraged, Ryouma activates his hidden Earth power and awaken the Ginga Braces. The Gingaman fights together with the Starbeasts against the Barban, who desire to revive the Demon Beast, Daitanix, on whose 'corpse' they built their castle.

He seeks revenge for his young brother Krantz (クランツ Kurantsu, 19 (flashback), 25), who is killed by the Barban during their assault on their home planet, Taurus. His original goal is to find Lights of Ginga, so he could take revenge on Zahab. But his means are very selfish, as he does not care about hurting innocent humans to reach his goal, unlike the Gingamen. But later it was revealed that he had fallen one thousand years earlier in the same abyss as Hyuuga, and that BullBlack uses the man's body to escape the abyss and fight again. This revelation came up when Hyuuga begins stopping him from using techniques that would hurt humans. After Krantz's spirit begged him to stop hurting people, BullBlack releases Hyuuga and is killed to save the Gingamen from a hate energy explosion. His spirit found peace after reuniting with Krantz. Later, they appear (as spirits) to inherit Hyuuga with BullBlack's powers by giving him the BullRiot Sword.
