Miracle Ninja Ganbare Team
  |
Kirigakure Koutarou The main pilot, who becomes Yellow Ganbare when he activates the Ganbare Brace with the command "Crosshin." When wearing the Ganbare Suit, he gains super-speed. His "Ride On" vehicle is the Ganbare Bike, a tiger-motif motorcycle, and he pilots Go Tiger, as well as beign the main pilot of Ganbaruger and Great Ganbaruger. Besides being a 4th-year student in school, he is being trained as a ninja by his father. He also enjoys playing pranks, and just goofing off in general. Though he argues all the time with Chinatsu, it seems as if they'll end up with each other. |

Ryuuzaki Rikiya As Red Ganbare, Rikiya gains super-strength. His vehicle is the Ganbare Buggy, which looks like a red go-cart, and like the other two vehicles becoems part of the cockpit for his mech, in this case King Elephan. When they need more help, he ends up becoming the pilot of Revolger as well. His parents run a ramen resteraunt, and he has a part-time job with them delivering ramen. His main passion, hwoever, is for baseball. Though it's only shown in a few eps, his match seems to be the daughter of General Takeda(and fellow 4-1 classmate), Katsura. |

Kazamatsuri Yousuke The geek/nerd of the group is Yousuke, who becomes Blue Ganbare. He is the first to discover their superpowers in the Ganbare Suits, which in his case is super-senses. He flies the Ganbare Jet(which is actually a prop-driven plane) and Mach Eagle. After he protects the egg containing it, he becomes the pilot of Gekiryuger as well. He is the one who figures out the Ganabre Commander and its functions. He's a bit shy, and is often emotionally blackmailed by his mother early on. She seems to treat him like a trophy child, putting all his perfect tests on the walls of their apartment, and making him play violin even though he's not good at it. He doesn't mind the latter though as much, since it means he gets to see his crush, Yurika. They're the most obvious of the three couples. Besides his normal schooling and violin lessons, he also attends a cram school where one of the subjects is English. |
Friends and allies
  |
(Gonzales)Kirigakure Toubei Koutarou's father, Toubei is a ninja. However, early on Yamino Ryuuse turns him into a dog when he attempts to battle him, a form he stays in for most of the rest of the series. Because they need to keep it a secret, he ends up getting "adopted" by his own family, and called Gonzales, or Gon for short. Under his doghouse is a secret ninja training chamber, where he attempts to help train the Ganbare Team, and especially Koutarou. As time goes on, he finds himself adopting more and more dog habits, such as burying and digging up bones. Eventually he is returned to human form in time for the final battle. Presumably he's disappeared like that before for training and such, as no one seems to wonder where he went. |
 |
Kirigakure Kasumi Koutarou's older sister. She is the one who (re)names Toubei as Gon and tries to take care of him. She is also wicked at badminton. |
 |
From left to right: Ryuuzaki Tetsuya - Rikiya's little brother. Friends with Akie, and in teh same preschool/daycare. He looks up to Red Ganbare even before he finds out that he's his brother. |
 |
Musubishiro Chinatsu A photgrapher, she's always raving about finding the next "Great Scoop" even though she's only a 4th year student like the Ganbare guys. SHe fights with Koutarou a lot, but at the end seems as if it's just because she cares about him. |
 |
Komaki Yurika A gentle girl, Yousuke has a crush on her and she returns the favor. Besides sharing the 4-1 class with Yousuke, she also has violin lessons with him. |
 |
Takeda Katsura The daughter of General Takeda of the Defense Force. She is a bit spoiled by her father. The budding relationship between her and Rikia is the least obvious of the three. |
 |
General Takeda General of the Defence Force. It seems as if the reason he does not show up as much in Raijin-Oh is because he was busy over in Aozora Town with his daughter and Makaijuu(Hellbeast) attacks. He later returns one last time in Gosaurer, but the subject of his daughter never comes up there. |
 |
Tachibana Aiko Teacher of the 4-1 class. She ends up falling for Yamino Ryuuse's human form. When she finds out who he really is, she still refuses to give up and charges into the battles with a bullhorn shouting at him about her love and his heart and all that sort of thing. |
 |
Aramoto Junkato The local Little League coach. He lives over his father's candy store. He ends up falling for Aiko, but just can't make her notice him. |
 |
Aramoto Genzou Father of Junkato, he owns the local candy store the Ganbare kids get candy from. Something always seems to happen to him or his store about a third to a half of the time, but it always gets restored along with all the other damages at the end. |
