Ow! A Drunken Hero's Big Adventure!

痛タッ!酔いどれヒーロー大冒険!!

Air date: April 20, 2012

Important things that happened

• A drunk AkibaRed summons BoukenRed "Good Luck Form" to combat this week's Chief Clerk.
• Hakase uses drinking to remove the limiter on Delusion Power. This causes Akagi's hero delusion and Moegi's fujoshi delusion to go in wild directions.
• Mitsuki studies Boukenger and summons BoukenRed on her own. He gives her the Boukengers' Outrageous Power, the Bouken Scooper.

Monster of the Week

Kabuki Chou Mesuguro Hyoumonchou 歌舞伎町メスグロヒョウモンチョウ
Voiced by Midorikawa Hikaru AKA Guririba, which is short for "Green Light River", a literal translation of his Japanese name.

Scientific name is Damora sagana. Kabuki-chou = Kabuki City. The pun here is that Chou is a homonym for butterfly.

Guests

Voice of BoukenRed - Takahashi Mitsuomi

Super Sentai References

• BoukenRed's actor did the voice for BoukenRed who appeared in Akagi's delusions.
• When Mitsuki mocks Akagi for being a bad influence, Akagi fires back that Black Condor from Jetman was known for drinking.
• BoukenRed first appears in his "Good Luck Form" from Task 27 of Boukenger, where he wore good luck charms over his outfits to overcome his bad luck curse.
• For this week's rollcall, Akagi recommends KirinRanger from Gosei Sentai DaiRanger for his favorite Sentai drunken fist.
• Kozukozu cosplays as Saya from Gingaman, and another maid is dressed as Nanami from Ninpuu Sentai Hurricaneger. At the very end of the episode, Kozukozu is dressed as Jasmine from Tokusou Sentai DekaRanger.

Trivia

• Moegi remarks that Kabuki Chou has a sexy voice like Guririba, when in fact Midorikawa Hikaru really does voice the villain of the week.
