History[]

Zyuohger[]

Early Life[]

As a young boy, Yamato ran away from his father one night only to end up lost and injured. TV STORY-Ep. 42: The Future of this Planet TV STORY-Ep. 45: Broken Seal TV STORY-Ep. 46: The Immortal God of Destruction However, he was rescued by Bud who gave him the King's Credential, through which he transferred his Zyuman Power in order to heal him, TV STORY-Ep. 6: Wild Present as a good luck charm. TV STORY-Ep. 1: The Exciting Animal Land TV STORY-Ep. 2: Don’t Underestimate this Planet

Meeting the Zyumans[]

When his good luck charm (which he didn't know was a stolen King's Credential) fell from his hand and rolled through the woods, he discovered a mysterious giant cube (the Link Cube) which has a slot perfect for his charm, he put his charm in it and saw himself unconscious in Zyuland. He opened his eyes and saw humanoid animals (Zyumen), a shark, a lion, an elephant and a tiger looking at him. They thought he was the thief of the King's Credential, but when he explained it was given to him by Bud (an eagle Zyuman), they decided to show him Zyuland. When the Zyumen returned to the Link Cube in order to teleport Yamato back to his world, only to see themselves teleported with him to an unusual dimension in the middle of a war. Their sixth sense reacted to the danger, and when they decided to protect Yamato's dimension, four of the six King's Credentials transformed into Zyuoh Changers to transform the Zyumen into the Zyuohgers. Yamato wanted to become a Zyuohger too and asked a fifth King's Credential for Zyuohger powers. The King's Credential allowed him to transform into Zyuoh Eagle and fight with the Zyumen. The five of them defeated the one who attacked Yamato's dimension, Deathgalien's Jagged, but Naria made him grow giant, their Changers glowed to teach them how to summon the Zyuoh Cubes to fight the newly grown Jagged, and then their changers teach them how to form Zyuoh King, but Tiger and Elephant were out of the formation, to which Tiger responded "First come, first served?". They defeated the Deathgalien and the Zyumen revealed their identities to Yamato, and told him they had no place to live in, so he offered his home, to which Elephant, (now revealed to be named Tusk), refused.

Encountering Kuliner[]

"Don't underestimate animals."

―Lucky[src]

Sometime following their formation, Yamato first arrived flying and kick Kuliner Yokai Wanyudo, calling that monster a Deathgalien player, then the five Zyuohgers fought and defeated the Kuliner while the Ninningers and ToQgers joined forces against the Kibaoni Army Corps and the Evil Army Shadow Line. MOVIE STORY-Shuriken Sentai Ninninger vs. ToQger The Movie: Ninjas in Wonderland

=Howl in the Ring[]

When Sela and Leo were captured and forced to fight in the Battle Show organized by Team Quval's Amigard, Yamato got the idea to track them down by having Tusk follow their scent with his elephant nose. Catching up with them just in time, Yamato, Tusk and Amu interrupted their fight at the last minute and backed them up in defeating Amigard. TV STORY-Ep. 4: Howl in the Ring

The Two Robos[]

The Zyuohgers meet Kamen Rider Ghost.

With Tusk setting off to confront Amu for skipping her chores, Yamato along with Sela and Leo tracked a malicious presence to a beachfront. Expecting a Deathgalien, what they found was, to their surprise, something completely different as the cyborg monster Shiomaneking emerged. Introducing himself as a member of Shocker, Shiomaneking attacked the Zyuohger trio, believing that, as they had the ability to track him, they would make excellent bases to create new cyborgs from. Transforming to face the monster, the Zyuohgers were interrupted by the arrival of Kamen Rider Ghost, Takeru Tenkuji, who was pursuing the monster as well. Making a new ally, the Zyuohgers used their combined strength to defeat Shiomaneking alongside the Kamen Rider and, after Naria grew Shiomaneking, formed ZyuohWild 6*2*3 to quickly destroy him. Catching up with Tusk and Amu, the trio saw Amu resist her turning by Quval into the Tiger Moeba, allowing Tusk to return her back to normal. TV STORY-Ep. 7: Gho-Gho-Gho-Ghost Appears

Yamato fights with Takeru for a second time.

Soon after, Yamato, pursuing another Shocker cyborg, Yamaarashi-Roid, would bump into Takeru again, using this coincidence to pay Takeru back for his help while also meeting his friends Akari and the Goemon-possessed Onari. Using their combined power, Zyuoh Eagle and Ghost soon enough defeated Yamaarashi-Roid and his Shocker Combatmen. After destroying the Yamaarashi-Roid together, Yamato bid farewell to Takeru as he set off to return home. TV STORY-Appearance! The Mysterious Warrior!

Savanna's Melody[]

Continuing their search for the missing King's Credential, Yamato and the others were interrupted by the arrival of Team Azald's Yabiker, who was driving people into frenzies with his Mufflerapper horn. Leo was the first to find him, warning the others to cover their ears, only for Sela to fall victim to Yabiker's Pararira Noise due to her sensitive shark hearing. With Yabiker fleeing after Leo discovered an immunity to his power, the Zyuohgers prepared noise-cancelling head-phones to protect against Yabiker. However, Yamato along with Tusk and Amu were sent into a frenzy by Yabiker, who had Naria provide him with an improved stereo, while Sela was ironically left unaffected due to the extra protection she sported. Yamato, Tusk and Amu were soon freed when Leo overcome Yabiker's Pararira Noise Ver. 2 with his naturally loud voice and, after the Zyuohgers defeated the Player, formed ZyuohWild to get back at him. Though outmatched by Yabiker's Yoroshiku Rod, ZyuohWild was backed-up by Cubes Lion and Shark and after Yamato used Cube Eagle to form ZyuohKing, the two giant robots were able to destroy Yabiker with their combined power. TV STORY-Ep. 8: Savanna's Melody

Hanayaida's Nightmare[]

One night, Yamato noticed that Sela was out late and, on the following morning, found her shedding a tear as she looked upon a memento broach of her family. Confiding in Yamato, Sela revealed to him that it was the day of her parents' anniversary and that she wished to find the King's Credential in time to return to Zyuland and reunite with them and her younger brother. Yamato suggested to Sela that she write a letter to the family, telling her that, if she believed it would get to them, her feelings would reach them. At that moment, they were interrupted by the Deathgalien presence, setting out to be confronted by Team Quval's Hanayaida, who paralyzed all five Zyuohgers by using his Nightmare Perfume to trap them in a recurring dream. In this dream, the Zyuohgers were alerted to the appearance of a giant Hanayaida who they quickly destroyed in ZyuohKing before returning home as Sela began to write her letter before the sequence repeated. However, a voice got through to Sela, which she heard as a call for help. Informing the others, Sela felt a sense of a deja vu, followed by Yamato, leading them to realize that they were stuck in a never ending nightmare, with Yamato waking himself up by finding Sela's brooch before waking up the others.

Catching up with Hanayaida in reality, the Zyuohgers found that he was plotting to use the Cannibalulb plant to consume all life on Earth as they were trapped in his nightmare. Negating his hold on the rest of the populace, the Zyuohgers were constricted by the Cannibalbulb's vines but were saved from being devoured by the arrival of Cube Mogura, who Sela realized had called for help having been woken by the plant's roots before breaking free. Engaging Hanayaida, the Zyuohgers soon defeated him and, forming ZyuohWild to face him as a giant, used Cube Mogura's drill to destroy him. Back home, Yamato returned the broach to Sela, telling her that she could still write the letter though the anniversary was nearly over while reassuring the Zyumans that they would return home as they reflected on their seclusion from their families. However, Yamato along with his uncle avoided the question of his own parents. TV STORY-Ep. 9: A Day Does Not End

Finding Bud[]

Starting a search for Bud, Yamato and the others were drawn to Team Quval's Hattena while Tusk was forced to work at Genkuro Oiwa's book store to pay off his bill, finding their opponent indestructible due to his regenerating body. The following day, Yamato and the others gave Tusk a helping hand in getting kids to listen to his reading of The Short-Nose Elephant before fighting Hattena again which led to them being robbed of their words by Hattena, thus being rendered mute, as part of Quval's plot to destroy Earth culture by disabling communication. Realizing in the process that Hattena's true form and weakpoint was his hat head, they tried to get the point across via charades before Oiwa stepped in and led the answer to Tusk who struck the hat, freeing all the stolen words and restoring communication with the Zyuohgers proceeding to defeat Hattena.

Zyuohger Returns[]

In the time since the worlds have merged, Yamato has returned to his duties as a zoologist, believing that the merger has introduced a variety of new species to Earth. He was technically the first Zyuohger to be eliminated from the Monarch of the World tournament, as Bud flew him out of the preliminary combat area so he could help investigate Pocane Daniro. When Bud was captured as a life jewel, Yamato recruited Tusk and Amu to help him infiltrate the casino and rescue him. To do this, Yamato helped empty the casino of money by using his eagle eyes to perfectly predict where the roulette ball would land. Bud and Yamato defeated Pocane da Niro by using Cube Condor's illusion magic and combining to form Zyuoh Condor. MOVIE STORY-Doubutsu Sentai Zyuohger Returns: Life Received! Earth Champions Decisive Battle!

Super Sentai Strongest Battle[]

Yamato appeared alongside the Oddball team; consisting of Takaharu/AkaNinger, Kagura/ToQ 5gou, Captain Marvelous/Gokai Red, Stinger/Sasori Orange, and of course, himself.

His fight was originally slated to be a 3-on-3 with himself, Marvelous, and Stinger versus GaoRed, VulShark, and GingaGreen, meant to be a combination of Land, Sea, and Air. Because Marvelous was acting uncooperative and restless and Stinger said he needed to look into something, Yamato informed Rita that he would confront all three rangers alone.

The disadvantage was apparent through most of the fight as he kept getting thrashed, but he refused to give up. When GaoRed asked, Yamato explained what his wish was. Some time before the tournament, he befriended a little boy with a terminal illness who loved to draw and fantasize about the animals of the savanna. Yamato promised to take him one day, but the boy succumbed to the illness and died. Yamato wanted the wish to bring him back, even if for just long enough to fulfill his promise and show him the animals.

Personality[]

Yamato is a novice zoologist, who as a child, helped Bud, a mysterious bird-man, in the forest. As token of gratitude, Bud gave Yamato a mysterious Cube. A caring person, he's the type that struggles with taking on too much. He is very strong willed and once he sets his mind on something, he'll never change it.

His respect for life and love of animals enables him to use the power of the Zyuoh Changers, something which only a Zyuman should be able to do. This love of animals is what enabled him to help Larry overcome his fear of humans. He also bears a great deal of gratitude towards Bud for saving him in the past.

However, Yamato is not without his weaknesses. He treasures the ones that are close to him, trying his best to look out for and protect them as much as he can. As such, he cannot bear to lose the friends that he has made. This led him to fight the original GIFT alone so the other Zyuohgers could recover the sixth King's Credential and return home, despite knowing that he was outmatched and nearly losing his life. This trait is also exploited by Bangray, who targets Yamato's old friend Daichi and then later the other Zyuohgers.

Yamato also bears somewhat of a grudge towards his father, Kageyuki Kazakiri, as he felt that his father spent too much time on work to focus on their family. This grudge is worsened when Yamato's mother passes away, as Yamato blames his father for not being there to save her in time. However, in the present time, once Yamato learns that he is only alive now because his father had earlier saved the one who would save him later on, he develops an inner conflict within himself as he struggles as to what he should do.

Imitations[]

Zyuoh Eagle

Powers and Abilities[]

Powers[]

Human Zyuohger Physiology: As one of the two human members of the Zyuohgers, Yamato lacks both a Zyuman form as well as a tail that can alert him to the presence of hostile forces. However, being a human allows Yamato to use his King's Credential to transfer a Zyuman's power into himself, adding their abilities to his own. Doing so however shortens the life of the donating Zyuman, resulting in Yamato using this ability only in times of utmost necessity. Especially since the process is irreversible, as seen when Yamato tried and failed to use his Zyuoh Changer to return Larry's Zyuman Power.
Zyuman Power (ジューマンパワー, Jūman Pawā): As a result of receiving Zyuman power on two separate occasions, first from Bud as a child and later by Larry after becoming a Zyuohger, Yamato gained the ability to utilize their powers and abilities as well as to transform a King's Credential into a Zyuoh Changer in order to fight as one of the Zyuohgers.
- Enhanced Vision: As a result of receiving Bud's Zyuman Power, following his first transformation into Zyuoh Eagle Yamato's eyesight has been enhanced to superhuman levels. This elevated sense allows him able to see things at much greater distances or too small too see and perceive actions too quick for others to process, such as Bowguns' Gunsbow. Yamato was initially oblivious to the change, but has since realized the scope and nature of his new abilities. Currently, this is the only ability from Zyuman Power that Yamato had shown using it in civilian form.
- Enhanced Strength: As a result of receiving Larry's Zyuman power and becoming Zyuoh Gorilla, Yamato's strength has been greatly enhanced to the point of being powerful enough to overpower a Deathgalien team leader.
Earth's Energy: As a defender of all living organisms on Earth, Yamato was bestowed with the Earth's Energy, which not only restored his damaged Zyuoh Changer, but also granted him superpowers, like:
- Superhuman Strength: Even in their civilian form, the Zyuohgers together were able to punch back Shin Ginis.

Attacks[]

Zyuoh Slash (ジュウオウスラッシュ, Jūō Surashhu): After pressing the trigger on the Zyuoh Buster to charge up its energy, Zyuoh Eagle and the other Zyuohgers transform into a giant claw which slashes the opponent.
Zyuoh Shoot (ジュウオウシュート, Jūō Shūto): After pressing the trigger on the Zyuoh Buster to charge up its energy, Zyuoh Eagle shoots a spinning cube shaped energy blast, similar to the Zyuoh Buster's normal projectile but larger and more solid.
Riser Spinning Slash (ライザースピニングスラッシュ, Raizā Supiningu Surashhu): Extending his EagRiser into whip mode, Zyuoh Eagle wraps the blade around an opponent before pulling it back, slashing them across their entire body.
Ocean Spear Slash (海の槍スラッシュ, Oceān no Yari Surashhu)
