ウメコ Umeko is the fifth member of Tokusou Sentai DekaRanger.

Kodou Koume 胡堂小梅 Actress: Kikuchi Mika (菊地 美香)

Character

She has a lively and friendly personality, but has a tendency to spend her times in bubble bathes. She is tight friends with Jasmine, as well as Murphy, which is a mechanical dog that was placed under her care. Unlike others, she does not have a special ability of her own.

Her tendency is to take bubble baths. Her three rubber ducks are named: Umeyo(ウメヨ), Umenosuke (ウメノスケ), Umegorou (ウメゴロウ).

She's the self-appointed leader of the DekaRangers.

As shown in episode 31, there is a alien princess that looks exactly like Umeko.

At the end of the series, she starts going out with Sen after realizing that Sen was protecting her from a swindler Alienizer who was responsible for marriage fraud to absorb the pure heart of his victims. We see more of their relationship in the MagiRanger versus DekaRanger movie.

She appears driving her patrol car in the 199 Heroes movie. Murphy is in the back seat.
