The Dairangers must save children who are being transformed into playing cards by Trump Duke for his amusement.

Tropes

  • Back from the Dead: Trump Duke revives Baron String, Purse Priest, Key Jester, and Lipstick Songtress to help him fight the Dairangers.
  • Faux Affably Evil: Despite his jovial personality, Trump Duke is Psychopathic Manchild who Would Hurt a Child.
  • Fusion Dance: Trump Duke and the Revived Monster Corps combine to form Ojaru Daioh.
  • Kids Are Cruel:
  • Kill It with Fire: Trump Duke attempts to burn the children he turned into cards on orders from his superiors.
  • Nothing Personal: He is reluctant to destroy his cards, but has orders to do so.
  • Playing Card Motifs: Trump Duke. The previous Gorma Monsters are represented of the royal trumps: King of Diamonds (Baron String), King of Clubs (Purse Priest), Jack of Spades (Key Jester), and Queen of Hearts (Lipstick Songtress).
  • Psycho Rangers: Subverted. Trump Duke assembled the first four Gorma Monsters that the Dairangers defeated to help him out in facing the heroes five-on-five.
  • Villain Forgot to Level Grind: The revived Gorma monsters are weaker then in their debut episodes, justified as the Dairangers got stronger in their absence.
  • Would Hurt a Child: Played straight. When he loses a card game, he takes it out on one of the children he turned into a card. Enforced when he tries to destroy the cards he turned the children into, saying it's orders.
