Spoiler warning: Significant plot details follow.
After attempting to use the JAKQ and Battle Fever J Ranger Keys on Gokai-Ou, the Gokaigers realize they cannot take a short cut in mastering the Ranger Keys' powers as Captain Marvelous sends Joe and Ahim to pick up some food. However, the two stop in response to the Action Commander Zodomasu, whose swordsmanship attracts Joe's attention and fights him as the Gokaigers battle the Goumin. However, the Action Commander overpowers GokaiBlue and takes his leave as the other Gokaigers arrive. While the others eat, Joe proceeds to hone his fighting style to counter Zodomasu's fighting style with Ahim forced to watch before Joe tells her. As Luka tells Ahim to accept his reasons out of friendship, Joe completes his training. The next day, Joe finds Ahim waiting for him and as she gives him her GokaiSabre to use in his upcoming duel with Zodomasu. However, Zodomasu uses Sugoumin to as GokaiPink arrives to his aid before the other Gokaigers arrive. After the others assume the forms of GekiRangers and DekaRangers to take out the Sugoumin, they give their GokaiSabres so GokaiBlue can use a five-blade fighting style to defeat with his Five-Blade Style Blue Slash. When Zodomasu and the Sugoumin are enlarged, the Gokaigers form Magi Gokai-Ou to ground Zodomasu before destroying him. Soon after, Joe presents a "thank you" cake to the crew and is modest about it.

Voiced by: Ishikawa Hideo (石川英郎)

An action commander is a swordsman who believes in winning by any means, even if he means cheating in duel with Joe.

He has many swordsman's abilities, including bladed tendrils from Insaan.

5 GokaiSabres = Blue Splash

All Gokaigers (less GokaiBlue) vs. Zodomasu

As Joe and Ahim leave a shopping center, the center's signboard shows nine stores; all of which are Super Sentai references:
- Upper left block: Chuuka Shokudou Sankai Kaku/Shanghai Pavilion Chinese Restaurant (Gosei Sentai DaiRanger)
- Upper center block: Kyouryuu-Ya/Dino House (Bakuryuu Sentai Abaranger)
- Upper right block: SCRTC (JyuKen Sentai GekiRanger)
- Middle left block: Ikkan Kenjou Kin no Sushi/Ikkan Kenjou Gold Sushi (Samurai Sentai Shinkenger)
- Middle center block: Tomorrow Research (Mirai Sentai TimeRanger)
- Middle right block: Wagashiya Imochou/Japanese Confectionery Imochou (Gekisou Sentai CarRanger)
- Lower left block: Shinobi Crepe (Ninja Sentai Kakuranger)
- Lower center block: Game Riribabita (Denji Sentai MegaRanger)
- Lower right block: Snack Gon (Himitsu Sentai GoRanger)
The 5 Ranger Keys Joe used for the Final Wave "Blue Slash" are all from water-element users.
