2''Bima Satria Garuda'' (''Bima the Garuda Knight'') is a {{tokusatsu}} series from Indonesia. It is the result of a cooperation of MNC Media with Ishimori Productions, the creator of ''Franchise/KamenRider''. Starring Christian Loho, Rayhan Febrian, Stella Cornelia (of [=JKT48=]), Adhitya Alkatiri, and Sutan Simatupang. Bima Satria Garuda began airing on Creator/{{RCTI}} on June 30, 2013.
3
4The story begins in the Parallel World controlled by VUDO. The Parallel World is a world that lives in perpetual darkness, where nature does not have a light source like the sun, water, oxygen, and other elements necessary for life. Rasputin (Sutan Simatupang) is the evil and cruel ruler of the villainous organization VUDO. He wants to take over the Earth to seize their natural resources for the sake of all life in the Parallel World. A scientist on Earth managed to create a portal that connects the Earth and other galaxies. VUDO saw this opportunity and wants to get to Earth.
5
6Ray Bramasakti (Christian Loho), gets a red Power Stone from a mysterious man, Mikhail (Adhitya Alkatiri), to stop any attempt by Rasputin to take over the Earth. By getting the red Power Stone, Ray got the power to change into Bima Satria Garuda. Randy Iskandar (Rayhan Febrian) and his sister, Rena (Stella Cornelia) who are Ray's adoptive family become involved in the actions of BIMA against evil Rasputin's schemes.

8A sequel series, ''Satria Garuda Bima X'', premiered in 2014.

10----
11!! The hero and his allies:
12
13* Ray Bramasakti/Bima Satria Garuda (Christian Loho), super hero and main character in the series. Nice, quiet, humble, yet having noble principles, Ray was an orphan who lived with a foster family, Randy and Rena. Ray has a job in the workshop "Satria Motors". He has a red Power Stone acquired from Mikhail and uses it to save the Earth from threats by VUDO. The Power Stone can turn him into Bima, who has the power of Garuda: agile, focused, and strong. His weapon is named Helios (the Sun) and his FinishingMove is called Garuda Strike.
14* Randy Iskandar (Rayhan Febrian), older brother of Rena, Ray's adopted brother, and the owner of the workshop "Satria Motors". Randy is a fatherly figure for Rena and Ray. He inherited considerable wealth from his parents who disappeared.
15* Rena Iskandar (Stella Cornelia), Randy's sister and Ray's adopted sibling who is also a student. Rena behaves naive and innocent, her nature tends to be careless and always unlucky, she wants to help Ray but instead gets often into trouble because of VUDO.
16* Iwan Iskandar (Abio Abie), Randy and Rena's uncle. He takes care of them after their parents disappeared.
17* Mikhail (Adhitya Alkatiri). His origin is not known to many. Mikhail fled a VUDO warship carrying the red Power Stone. He communicates through telepathy, but does not like to communicate a lot with humans.
18
19!! VUDO:
20
21* Rasputin (Sutan Simatupang), the leader of the organization VUDO who has the black Power Stone. He comes from the Parallel World and wants to attack Earth by taking over the elements oxygen, sunlight, and water to give life in the Parallel World.
22* Iron Mask, a mysterious figure and Rasputin's right-hand warship commander who has the blue Power Stone.
23* Azazel, a mysterious figure who fights for Rasputin. He is armed with Taranis (Lightning), similar to Bima's Helios.
24
25----
26!!Tropes:
27* ABNegative: Ray's blood type. [[spoiler: Conveniently, it's also Mikhail's blood type. Not surprising, since he is Ray's brother.]]
28* AncientArtifact: There is a stone tablet that shows evidence about [[spoiler: Bima Legend]]'s existence in ancient times, shown in a museum.
29* AnimalThemedSuperbeing
30** MythicalMotifs: A Garuda.
31* AnimatedArmor: [[spoiler:Iron Mask turns out to be this.]]
32* ApocalypticLog: Written by Ray and Randy's fathers.
33* [[AllYourBaseAreBelongToUs All Your Nature Resources Are Belong To Us]]: Once Rasputin got all of the seven Power Stones, he unleashed his GiantMecha, Grand Gator, and it utterly destroys Jakarta.
34* BackFromTheDead: Several monsters defeated by Bima were revived by Velifer to go against Azazel.
35** [[spoiler:Iron Mask in TheStinger]].
36* BadassNormal: Randy. He assisted Ray/Bima to invade Vudo's island base, and he even wielded Helios ''twice'' to ward off the Kombatans. Rena also gets this treatment in the final episode.
37* BadassCape: [[spoiler:Bima Legend sports this one.]]
38* BarehandedBladeBlock: Done by Azazel against Helios.
39* BashBrothers: Ray and Randy. Bonus point for them being adoptive brothers. Now it's Ray and Reza.
40* BeatThemAtTheirOwnGame: When Zacros attempted to take Bima's power stone, what did Bima do? Attempt to take Zacros'. This resulted in Zacros pleading for mercy and released the bus hostages.
41* BeautifulSlaveGirl: Maya, a runaway slave from the Parallel World. Justified, as she was played by Haruka Nakagawa, a member of Music/AKB48.
42* BerserkButton: Never, ever threat or harm Rena in front of Ray. Megalodon Monster found this out [[CurbStompBattle the hard way]].
43* BigBad: Rasputin.
44* BladeBelowTheShoulder: Bima's Thunder Claw, acquired from Iron Mask.
45* BondingOverMissingParents: Ray and Randy discussed about their missing parents in #5.
46* BossSubtitles: The monsters of the week are introduced this way.
47* BrainwashedAndCrazy: In #13, it was revealed that Mikhail was given the black power stone by Rasputin, which causes him to become evil and allows him to transform into Azazel.
48* BreakingTheFourthWall: In his {{Troll}} moment, Zacros whistled the show's theme song.
49* BroughtDownToBadass: Rasputin managed to take Bima and Azazel's Power Stones. While it stopped them from transforming, it didn't stop them from being badass.
50* ByThePowerOfGrayskull: "Berubah!", meaning change, or transform. It's basically the Indonesian translation of the usual "Henshin!"
51* CallingYourAttacks: Bima.
52* CatapultNightmare: Happened to Ray in two occasions. The second is followed by Ray accidentally attacking Randy.
53* ChildhoodFriendRomance: Rena has a crush on Ray. However, she has yet to tell her feelings towards him, and it's still unknown whether Ray will or will not reciprocate, although there's some ShipTease between them.
54* ChekhovsGun: Ray and Reza's parents used their dimensional portal to catch Grand Gator's punch.
55* CliffhangerCopout: The eighth episode of the first season ends with Bima trapped in a crate with the doors rapidly closing. The next episode opens with him getting out with no real difficulty.
56* ConservationOfNinjutsu: Bima against the MonsterOfTheWeek one-on-one? Two episodes. Azazel against all of the MonsterOfTheWeek at once? Doesn't take a full minute.
57* ContentWarnings: Following Japan's tradition of inserting these before a show starts. Although to be fair, only a few are actually content warnings (e.g. DontTryThisAtHome). The rest are more like AnAesop or some sort.
58* CoolAirship: VUDO's airship. It looks like a crossover between an oriental sailboat and a dragon, complete with the tail.
59* CurbStompBattle: Azazel briefly pulls this on Iron Mask.
60** Iron Mask also pulled this off on Bima, going as far as performing his SelfDuplication powers. But once Bima does the same in the early minutes of #17, it was Iron Mask who received [[ThereIsNoKillLikeOverkill a brutal and swift beating by Bima, going as far as being destroyed BEFORE THE OPENING TITLE EVEN STARTED!]]
61** Rasputin pulls this to both Bima and Azazel in #25
62* CuriosityKilledTheCast: Ray's father, driven by scientific curiosity, opens a portal to a parallel world. Too bad the inhabitants of the other world now want to invade our Earth for its natural resources and kill Ray's parents first.
63** George too. He was curious about the multiverse portal. Too bad his curiosity led him to his death in the hands of Valcus Monster.
64* DarkIsNotEvil: Azazel after he betrayed VUDO.
65* {{Determinator}}: Ray. See HeroicSpirit below.
66* DistressedDude: Mikhail at the end of #11.
67* TheDogBitesBack: [[spoiler:Iron Mask turns against Rasputin and delivered the final blow in TheStinger]].
68* DualWielding: Azazel used both Taranis and Helios to defeat Bima in #17.
69* EmbarrassingNickname: When they were little, Ray nicknamed Rena 'mochi gembul', which translates to 'plump mochi'. Suffice to say, Rena wasn't amused at all.
70** AffectionateNickname: Ray thought that it was cute, though.
71* EmotionEater[=/=]LivingMacGuffin: [[spoiler:It was revealed that all of Power Stones are this, although Red, Blue, and Black doesn't seem to be the EmotionEater type.]]
72* TheEmpire: VUDO.
73* EnigmaticEmpoweringEntity: Mikhail, in a way.
74* EvilCostumeSwitch: After being brainwashed, Mikhail added a pair of sunglasses to his wardrobe. He also no longer puts on his hood.
75** PaintItBlack: [[spoiler:Iron Mask, after being revived by Black Priest, now wears a black cape instead of a red one]].
76* EvilCounterpart: Azazel.
77* EvilIsHammy: Rasputin, oh so very much.
78* EvilSoundsRaspy: Iron Mask.
79* EvilVersusEvil[=/=]EnemyCivilWar: Iron Mask vs. Azazel.
80* EyeCatch: Nothing special, though. Just the show's logo.
81* FinishingMove: He has several:
82** DivingKick: Garuda Crusher. Add in Azazel's own and it becomes Double Garuda Crusher.
83** PowerFist: Garuda Strike.
84** SwordBeam: The signature move of Helios when being folded. Comes in two flavors, Bima Blue Storm and [[PlayingWithFire Bima Red Fire]]. Azazel has his own version as well, Taranis Black Thunder. Also with Bima's [[BladeBelowTheShoulder Thunder Claw]], he can unleash [[ShockAndAwe Garuda Blue Thunderstorm]].
85** TheStraightAndArrowPath: Helios Blaster and Taranis Blaster.
86* GeneralFailure: Iron Mask. Rasputin said he doesn't deserve to be his commander.
87* GiantMecha: The Grand Gator, empowered by the seven Power Stones.
88* GoryDiscretionShot: The first monster victim to die was George, and we didn't even see him die. The only things shown were Valcus Monster's tail rising up before falling down, and George's scream.
89* GratuitousForeignLanguage: Several, due to [[spoiler: Creator/{{Gackt}}]]'s nationality. There's GratuitousEnglish, [[spoiler: GratuitousJapanese]], and Gratuitous Indonesian.
90** The stone tablet has Javanese script (also known as [[IHaveManyNames Hanacaraka, Caraka, or Aksara Jawa]]) writings. Conveniently, only Maya can translate them.
91* HappilyAdopted: Ray, doubly. First, he was adopted by Randy's parents. Then, he, along with Randy and Rena, were adopted by Iwan. As of #24, Reza also got this treatment.
92* HeelFaceTurn: Reza.
93* HenshinHero
94* HeroicSpirit: Demonstrated by Ray in #11. Although he only just woke up from his coma while his wounds hadn't healed yet, he challenged Valcus Monster, took down the surrounding Kombatans, went toe-to-toe with the twin sword-wielding monster with only his fists, and destroyed the monster with [[ThereIsNoKillLikeOverkill two shots from Helios Blaster]].
95** Again in #15. He infiltrated VUDO's base along with Randy, and opened a can of kickass against the Kombatans, all while untransformed.
96* HiddenAgendaVillain: We're only told that Rasputin needs the seven Power Stones. Whatever he wants to do with them is not revealed to anyone, even to his [[TheDragon dragon]], Iron Mask.
97** It was finally revealed. See WhamEpisode below.
98* HoistByHisOwnPetard: Twice in #17. First, Bima used the blue Power Stone, which originally belong to Iron Mask, to finish him off. Secondly, Azazel used both Taranis and Bima's weapon, Helios, to defeat him.
99* HonorBeforeReason: Azazel refused to fight Bima if the latter isn't in shape. Rasputin isn't amused.
100* HumanAlien: Mikhail. Technically a human from a parallel Earth, but he ''has'' telepathy, so he should qualify.
101* IJustWantToBeNormal: Ray told Mikhail that he doesn't want to be Bima if it endangers his family.
102* IKnowYoureInThereSomewhereFight: [[spoiler:Bima/Ray vs Azazel/Reza.]]
103* IntrepidReporter: George. His partner, Cecil, takes up his mantle after his death.
104* LegacyCharacter: Bima '''Legend'''. It seems that Bima isn't the only Garuda Knight.
105* LittlestCancerPatient: In #20, although it's heart surgery patient to be exact. The kid also inspired Bima's MidSeasonUpgrade by a drawing of him with wings.
106* LivingBattery: What happens to the VictimOfTheWeek. This is how the monsters gain power; by absorbing humans, and it is implied that if Bima destroys the monster without weakening it first so that the human can be rescued, the human will die along with the monster.
107* LongLostRelative: Reza, as well as [[spoiler:Ray and Reza's parents]].
108* LukeIAmYourFather: [[spoiler: Mikhail, you're actually Reza, Ray's little brother.]]
109* MalevolentMaskedMen: Iron Mask. [[spoiler: It turns out that he is an AnimatedArmor.]]
110* MassHypnosis: The reason why Gremontis Monster is created is to spread a massive hypnosis wave through television to [[DrivenToSuicide drive people into committing suicide]].
111* MerchandiseDriven: Bandai produces the toys of the show.
112* MidSeasonUpgrade: [[spoiler:Bima God Helios Form. Bima formed this by fusing Helios with the Red and Blue Power Stones' powers.]]
113* MindRape: Zacros attempted to do this on Bima, but Bima snaps out of it, thanks to Rena and Randy's interference.
114* MineralMacGuffin: The Power Stones. There are seven of them, and VUDO needs all of them to accomplish their goal, which is why Iron Mask is tasked with retrieving Bima's Red Power Stone.
115* {{Mook}}: The Kombatans.
116* NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast: Rasputin, Azazel...
117* {{Nephewism}}: Randy and Rena. They are adopted by their uncle, Iwan.
118* NewPowersAsThePlotDemands: Where the hell did Garuda Shield come from?
119* NonActorVehicle: ''Bima Satria Garuda'' was the first major starring role for Christian Loho (Ray), Rayhan Febrian (Randy), Stella Cornelia (Rena), and Adhitya Alkatiri (Mikhail). Christian and Rayhan were models who ran in the 2011 iteration of [[https://www.l-men.com L-Men]] of the Year, Alkatiri was also a model, while Stella was a former member of [[Music/{{AKB48}} JKT48]]. Aside from Rayhan (who only had two other acting credits unrelated to the franchise), they would eventually broke through as actors.
120* NonIndicativeName: One wouldn't really think of snakes when they hear the name 'Gills'.
121* NotSoDifferentRemark: Rasputin once pointed out that [[HumansAreBastards humans are no less evil than him, if not moreso]].
122* TheOnlyOneAllowedToDefeatYou: Iron Mask went as far as ignoring Rasputin's orders to attack earth discreetly so that he can lure Bima out and kill him personally.
123** And now Azazel takes the mantle.
124* OrcusOnHisThrone: Throughout the show, Rasputin only sits on his throne, barking orders to his underlings. However, once he got off the throne and directly confronts the heroes, he managed to take their Power Stones.
125* ParentalAbandonment: Ray, Reza, Randy, and Rena. It's the reason why they live together with Iwan.
126* PatrioticFervor: Meta example. The Garuda to Indonesia is like the bald eagle to America. Guess what Bima's motif is.
127* PlanetLooters: VUDO's method of attacking earth. They don't attack for the hell of it. Rather, they attack so that they can take earth's resources, led by the MonsterOfTheWeek.
128* PlayingWithFire: Bima's overall motif. He can launch a fire projectile from his [[PowerFist fist]] à la [[VideoGame/FZero Captain Falcon]], a flaming [[Franchise/KamenRider rider kick]], a fiery SwordBeam, and a flaming arrow.
129* PoisonIsEvil: As expected from monsters based on poisonous animals, such as Valcus Monster and Gills Monster.
130* POVCam: Done gratuitously in #14.
131* PowerCopying: Bima took Iron Mask's blue Power Stone and it granted him a new weapon, Thunder Claw, which he used to finish off Iron Mask.
132* PreviouslyOn[=/=]OnTheNext: Done in conjunction.
133* ProductPlacement: Quite a lot by Top 1 Motor Oil, Suzuki Motors, MNC Group, Sindo Newspapers, and even RCTI (the channel this show runs on). At least justified for MNC and Sindo Newspapers, since this show is co-created by MNC, while Sindo Newspapers is owned by RCTI. As for the first two, they are regular sponsors for RCTI.
134* QuirkyMinibossSquad: The Shadow Crisis, a group of four monsters empowered with the remaining four Power Stones tasked specifically to kill Bima. They are:
135** BatOutOfHell: Velifer Monster.
136*** DirtyCoward: He interrupts [[spoiler:Bima/Ray and Azazel/Reza's fight]] by [[spoiler:shooting Azazel/Reza InTheBack]].
137*** {{Necromancer}}: His special power. Not only he brings back the monsters that Bima defeated, but also the Shadow Crisis members.
138*** PsychopathicManchild: His personality.
139*** ShockAndAwe: Another of his abilities, granted by the Yellow Power Stone.
140** SavageWolves: Vargulf Monster.
141*** TheBerserker: His fighting style.
142*** DishingOutDirt: While it's not shown explicitly, he carries the Green Power Stone which grants him earth powers.
143*** HairTriggerTemper: Easily become the most violent of all Shadow Crisis, since his debut.
144** FaunsAndSatyrs: Zacros Monster.
145*** CoolGate: He has the ability to conjure these to transport himself or other things elsewhere, or into his dimension.
146*** FauxAffablyEvil: Speaks calmly and mannerfully...while beating the snot out of Azazel, and later, Bima.
147*** GracefulLoser: He acknowledges Bima's strength and even ''bows down'' before exploding.
148*** SquishyWizard: He's stated to be the weakest of the four, which is why he mostly uses magic.
149*** {{Troll}}: His trolliness is up there with [[Series/KaizokuSentaiGokaiger Basco]] and [[Series/TokumeiSentaiGoBusters Enter]].
150** WingedHumanoid: Karax Monster, based on a crow.
151*** AnIcePerson: Has ice powers due to the White Power Stone he carried.
152*** ArrowCatch: Does this to Helios Blaster.
153*** FeatherFlechettes: Combined with his ice powers.
154*** YouFightLikeACow: Insults Bima to no end, calling him a Garuda who can't fly.
155* RealLifeWritesThePlot: A minor one. The reason why Rena didn't appear in #16 was because her actor, Stella Cornelia, was sick.
156* RecapEpisode: #17.
157* RedIsHeroic
158* RedemptionPromotion[=/=]RedemptionDemotion: [[spoiler:Azazel aka Reza, now turns against VUDO with his Black Power Stone.]]
159* SecretIdentity: Averted. Ray transforms into Bima right in front of his adoptive brother, Randy.
160** He also transformed once in front of a monster victim.
161** It appears that Ray has no problems transforming in public. It just so happens that whenever he transforms, nobody is around to see it.
162** As of #15, Rena also found out.
163* SecretKeeper: Randy acknowledges Ray's status as Bima, and he even helps Ray to cover up his identity from Rena. Although as of #15, he probably doesn't need to so anymore.
164* SelfDuplication[=/=]DoppelgangerAttack: Iron Mask. Bima gains this ability in episode 17.
165%%* SequelHook
166* ShipTease: It's subtle, but when Bima grabbed Rena's hand in #15, their fingers are interlocking with each other. So it seems that Ray does reciprocate Rena's feelings to a degree.
167* ShoutOut: Garuda Crusher is basically a [[Franchise/KamenRider Rider Kick]] with a different name.
168** Valcus Monster looks supiciously like a monstrous version of [[Series/KamenRiderKabuto Kamen Rider Sasword]]. The fact that it's also a sword wielder (albeit a [[DualWielding dual]] one) doesn't help.
169** Probably unintentional, but there's already [[VideoGame/FZero another character]] who can do a flaming punch (complete with the fiery avian effects) and a flaming DivingKick.
170** Gills Monster's design might have taken some liberties from the [[Series/KamenRiderAgito Snake Lord]] and the [[Series/KamenRider555 Snake Orpenoch]].
171*** Also, a MonstrousHumanoid named Gills. [[Series/KamenRiderAgito Hmm...]]
172** One would easily think of Megalodon Monster as a humanoid version of [[Series/KamenRiderRyuki Kamen Rider]] [[Series/KamenRiderDecade Abyss]]' contract monster.
173** The way Azazel fights reminds some of [[Series/KamenRiderRyuki Kamen Rider Ouja]]. It doesn't help that he [[ReverseGrip reverse grips]] his sword and does the neck-cracking.
174** Color scheme wise, Bima and Azazel are similar to [[Series/KamenRiderRyuki Ryuki and Ryuga]].
175** The whole 'brothers who were separated in their childhood, only to meet up later as super-powered beings that fight each other' plot. [[Series/KamenRiderBlack Not a first time in the toku genre]]. It helps that Series/KamenRiderBlack (as well as its sequel, Series/KamenRiderBlackRX) is Indonesia's GatewaySeries not only to Franchise/KamenRider, but also the {{Toku}} genre in general.
176** Karax Monster's design may remind some of the [[Series/KamenRiderAgito Crow Lord]].
177** Zacros Monster wields a staff that resembles that of [[Series/KamenRiderRyuki Gigazelle's, a.k.a. Kamen Rider Imperer's contract monster]].
178** The fight in Zacros' dimension is pretty much this show's version of [[Series/SpaceSheriffGavan Makuu Space]]. Heck, the fight even happened in a bus, the sky was purple, and the monster peeked out of a newspaper.
179** The name Shadow Crisis is a combination of [[Series/KamenRiderBlack Shadow Moon]] and [[Series/KamenRiderBlackRX Crisis Empire]].
180** After defeating Zacros, Bima performed [[Series/KamenRiderKuuga Kuuga's]] thumbs-up pose.
181** Zacros' ability to create magic portals is [[Series/KamenRiderWizard not something Ishimori hadn't done before]].
182** Bima God Helios' finisher is very similar to [[Series/ChoujinSentaiJetman Icarus Haken's]].
183*** Him leaving the sword impaled on his enemy before exploding may also remind some of [[VideoGames/SuperRobotWarsOriginalGeneration SRX's TK Exploding Sword]].
184** After Azazel's HeelFaceTurn, he and Bima finished off Velifer Monster with what practically is a [[Series/KamenRider double rider kick]].
185** Part of Azazel's heroic pose looks like Series/KamenRiderBlade's pre-finisher pose.
186** Bima God Helios has wings, a sword, and a bird's head for a gauntlet. [[Series/PowerRangersNinjaStorm Haven't we seen this combination before as a battlizer?]]
187* SiblingTeam: [[spoiler:Ray/Bima and Reza/Azazel forming this one after reunite.]]
188* SinisterScythe: The weapons for the Kombatans.
189* SkySurfing: Bima needs a powerup to be able to fly. Azazel? Pfft. He ''surfs'' on his weapon.
190* SomethingOnlyTheyWouldSay: This is how Rena found out that Ray is Bima; he called her by her EmbarrassingNickname.
191* TheStinger: [[spoiler:Iron Mask is BackFromTheDead, raised by the Parallel World's new deity, the Black Priest]].
192* SubspaceOrHyperspace: The Limbo, where Mikhail is hiding in.
193* ThemeInitials: Ray, Reza, Randy, Rena, Rudy, Risha, Rasputin, Reino...
194* ThroughTheEyesOfMadness: Those stung by Valcus Monster will see another person as the monster itself.
195* ThrowingYourSwordAlwaysWorks: Subverted epically. Even though Helios can transform into a bird and fly, it still doesn't guarantee a hit. Azazel made sure of it by catching Helios and used it against Bima.
196* TransformationNameAnnouncement: Naturally for a HenshinHero show.
197** Bima's is, "Garuda Knight! Bima!"
198** Azazel's is, "VUDO's dark knight! Azazel!". The 'dark' is replacable with 'proud'. [[spoiler:After he broke his belt, he follows his brother's roll call.]]
199* TransformationTrinket: The Garuda Changer.
200* TrackingDevice: This is how Ray and his friend, Belinda, located her kidnapped father.
201* TwoGuysAndAGirl: [[LetterMotif Ray, Reza, Randy, and Rena.]]
202* VictimOfTheWeek: This show is co-created by the people behind the ''Franchise/KamenRider'' series. What would you expect? Even Randy and Rena got to become a victim.
203** AssholeVictim: The one basketball player in #3, and an entire street gang in #4.
204* VillainousRescue: Pulled off by Gills Monster in #13, although it was under Iron Mask's order. Apparently, he was angry at Azazel being Rasputin's new [[TheDragon dragon]].
205* WaveMotionGun: The MacGuffin for #14, the [[XtremeKoolLetterz ZU]] Formula Gun.
206* WeakenedByTheLight: Lizarion Monster's weakness is sunlight.
207%%** Helios for Bima.
208%%** Taranis for Azazel.
209%%** DoubleWeapon: Helios and Taranis are double-bladed swords...
210%%*** SwissArmyWeapon: ...that can turn into single-bladed swords (by folding it) and a bow. Mikhail stated that it transforms according to Bima's mind and [[HeartIsAnAwesomePower heart]].
211%%*** EmpathicWeapon[=/=]LivingWeapon: Those swords need to be summoned by calling them, in which they fly down like a bird. They can attack without being wielded, and they can actually be ''injured''.
212* WellIntentionedExtremist: VUDO wants to bring life to the Parallel World, which would be a good goal in itself, the problem being they want to accomplish this by the invasion of Earth.
213* WhamEpisode: Several:
214** At the end of #11, Mikhail got captured by Iron Mask. It was followed by Rasputin implanting him with the black Power Stone, causing him to become Azazel.
215** At the end of #15, just when things seem to get better, Iron Mask's airship blows up with Azazel still in it, and Iron Mask...watching from below.
216** And finally, during #16, Mikhail finally remembers that he is [[spoiler: Ray's younger brother.]]
217** At the end of #22, Rasputin finally revealed his plans regarding the Power Stones. [[spoiler: He built a GiantMecha and will use the Power Stones as the power source.]]
218** At the end of #23, [[spoiler: Bima dies. In front of Reza]]. Seasoned toku watchers might expect [[spoiler: Bima to have an UnexplainedRecovery per Toku standards]], but [[spoiler: the preview for the next episode only showed Azazel fighting against VUDO's ressurected MonsterOfTheWeek, without Bima in sight]].
219** In #25, the GiantMecha Grand Gator utterly destroyed Jakarta.
220** At the end of final episode, #26, [[spoiler: Iron Mask is [[BackFromTheDead revived]] by Black Priest and kills Rasputin.]]
221* XanatosGambit: The reason why the Shadow Crisis exists. If they managed to kill Bima, then Rasputin will take over the world. However, if Bima managed to destroy them, then the Power Stones will absorb enough hatred to empower it even more, which will be used by Rasputin to power up his GiantMecha and take over the world.
222* YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness: Rasputin put a hit on Azazel after he refused to kill Bima while he's exhausted from the last battle.
223* YourSizeMayVary: God Helios' size increased when it carries the main 4 to infiltrate Grand Gator.
