Naga Ray

Naga Ray (ナーガ・レイ, Nāga Rei) is Hebitsukai Silver (ヘビツカイシルバー, Hebitsukai Shirubā, lit. Snake-Bearer Silver), the Silver Ranger of the Kyurangers. From the Hebitsukai System, Naga Ray's people eschewed emotions, but he is on a mission to have emotions, unlike his people. He is a thief, a partner to Balance. He is the eighth Kyuranger to be awakened. Naga is later compromised and corrupted into becoming Dark Naga (ダークナーガ, Dāku Nāga) by a vice shogun named Akyanba. His betrayal also leads to the corruption of his Seiza Blaster and his Kyutama, allowing him to transform into Hebitsukai Metal (ヘビツカイメタル, Hebitsukai Metaru). He retains this power after being freed from Akyanba's control. After the permanent defeat of Don Armage, he and Balance began to retrieve every stolen treasures which Jark Matter left behind.

Aged 21, Naga was born on July 4th.[1]

History

Early Life

Naga Rey before

When Naga Ray met Balance, he decided Balance was the key for him to be able to learn emotion. Tvicon TV STORY-Space.28: BN Thieves, Breakup... Balance and Naga Ray become partners in thieving against Jark Matter, becoming known as the two-man BN Team who were branded with a combined five million Pongi bounty by Jark Matter. Tvicon TV STORY-Space.2: Let's Go! Phantom Thief BN Team!

As Hebitsukai Silver

It was on Zigama that the pair discovered the Kyurangers on a wanted poster, Tvicon TV STORY-Space.1: The Super Stars of Space finding them to have a bounty ten times more than theirs. Having heard about a local Jark Matter facility storing a precious gem, the pair met Lucky, who believed them to be bearers of Kyutamas themselves, on the way to their mark. While they tell Lucky they aren't, Lucky still decides to wait out his luck and work with them on their job. However, instead of being stealthy, they are discovered because of Lucky looking for a fight. Naga is surprised as Balance betrays Lucky by lashing him with his cables, in full view of Jark Matter. However, Naga is angered and chooses to stay with Lucky. He watches as Balance asks to see the gem as reward and is allowed. He and Lucky are put on a death trap to be executed immediately. Balance intervenes by controlling the death trap. Naga Ray and Balance earn their Kyutamas and fight with the Kyurangers, joining them on the ORION after taking down Zigama's Daikaan Gamettsui.

Tvicon TV STORY-Tenbin Gold & Hebitsukai Silver Chapter

Introduced by Raptor to commander Shou Ronpo, the seven Kyurangers were sent to save the planet Needle from destruction at the hands of the Jark Matter. Engaged by a hostile new Kyuranger, Stinger, Naga and the others bar Lucky and Champ were struck by the Sasori System native's sting. However, the afflicted Kyurangers ultimately recovered in time to destroy the Moraimarz that was draining Needle's Planet Jume. Tvicon TV STORY-Space.3: The Man from the Desert Star

When the Orion arrived in orbit of Earth, a planet strangely containing numerous Moraimarz, Naga and Balance were left on the ship to work on equipment under Shou Ronpo as the others were assigned to land on Earth for the first time by the commander's Kyulette, establishing a link between the Kyu Buckles which would allow the Kyurangers to summon Kyutama at will. Witnessing Raptor's transformation into Washi Pink, Naga suspected that Shou knew that she was destined to become the Washi System's Kyuranger though he denied it.

Orion

After the destruction of Daikaan Mozuma's Moraimarz, the crew discovered that they had lost control of the ship and that they had been sent on a direct course to the Sun, causing a sharp rise in temperature much to the discomfort of Naga and the other organics. Naga himself was initially found unconscious, leading the others to believe that there was an intruder on the ship only for him to reveal that he had slipped and hit his head while practicing his smile. The ship and crew were ultimately saved as Mozuma was destroyed by Shishi Red and Koguma Skyblue, causing his microbic extensions to dissipate and return control of the ship. Tvicon TV STORY-Space.10: A Small Giant, Big Star!

Naga was among the crew left behind to perform repairs on the Orion following the ordeal with the Sun as a team was led by Shou to recover the Tomo Kyutama on Earth. Tvicon TV STORY-Space.11: Three Kyutama to Save The Universe

Returning from Vela in the midst of Stinger and Champ's fight with Scorpio, Naga fought in KyurenOh to take down a Deathworm that the Karo had enlarged. Tragically, Champ was nearly destroyed after saving Stinger from Scorpio, and so Scorpio was ordered to take his body to Rebellion HQ in hopes that he could be saved. Tvicon TV STORY-Space.16: Stinger's Reunion with His Brother

Zyuohger vs. Ninninger

Through unknown circumstances, the nine Kyurangers made a brief appearance on an Earth where Jark Matter was not present. Instead, the Kyurangers arrived to intervene against the Deathgalien before they could interfere with the Zyuohgers' fight with the Ninningers for the future of Super Sentai against Gillmarda. With Hebitsukai Silver aiding in wiping out the Moeba pack, the Kyurangers eventually forced the Deathgalien to retreat before taking their leave with their appearance observed by the Zyuohger ally Bud, who realized that the future was in safe hands.

Planet Toki

Naga Card

Seeking the Kyutama of the Tokei System, the Kyurangers came to the planet Toki and turned the 12 keys needed to unlock it within 30 minutes. Approaching key VI, Naga uniquely did not find phantoms of either friend or foe, believing it to be a result of having no feelings. Tvicon TV STORY-Space.25: Planet Toki, the Boy's Determination!

Naga laments that he has no heart to reflect.

Return to Earth and Final Battle

As the team returned to Earth for the final time and learned that Tsurugi was almost out of life force, Lucky asked each team member to share what they hoped to do when the war was over. Balance said he wanted to go back to treasure hunting with Naga, while Naga said he wanted to return to his home planet to teach his people everything he had learned about emotions.

On the eve of the final battle against Don Armage, Naga was feeling a great pain and fear in his heart. Balance explained that it was because Naga had something that he was afraid he would lose through the next day's fight.

Naga and Balance were the second ground team to break from the core Kyurangers, with Naga saying their part of the battlefield "is under the BN Theives' control." The two would fight for what seemed to be several days, eventually being forced out of their Ranger forms and falling down back-to-back. As Balance powered down, Naga reflected on the various emotions he got to feel through his travels as a Kyuranger, and thanked Balance for his role in all of it. The two of them remained unconscious until Don Armage consumed them along with seven other Kyurangers. However, Lucky was able to free Naga and the other Kyurangers for the final fight.

Aftermath

Two years later, the BN Thieves reunited with the other Kyurangers at Spada's new restaurant. Naga explained that they had spent the last two years hunting for treasures stolen by Jark Matter and returning them to their home planets. Whether he had been to his home planet to teach others about emotions is unclear.

Personality

Naga laugh
Naga's inappropriate reaction to being outdone by the Kyurangers.

A stoic yet highly curious man, Naga desires to learn about and experience emotion, something that his people discarded long ago. He mostly carries himself in a neutral demeanor, speaking in a monotonous voice. Due to his inexperience with feelings, Naga will often use the wrong emotion when he tries expressing feeling (such as amusement when he should feel anger, or rage instead of excitement). However, he has shown the ability to become angry when provoked.

He also sometimes takes words spoken to him seriously. When Hammie told him to think for himself, he took those words to heart and willingly sided with Akyanba to have his emotions unleashed. Among the Kyurangers, he always doubt Shou because their commander seems to lie at times.

Abilities

  • Paralytic Snake Eyes: Naga has the ability to paralyze other living beings for as long as he can maintain eye contact with them. When using this ability, his eyes will become green and snake-like in appearance, and seals of the eye will appear in front of the victims. However, a more powerful opponent, like Scorpio, can break free of the paralyzation by destroying the seal. Furthermore, as seen in Kamen Rider × Super Sentai: Chou Super Hero Taisen, his power is ineffective against
Poppy PipopapoIcon-crosswiki
, and presumably all BugstersIcon-crosswiki in general. He can also send a shock blast from his eyes to knock others off. During his brainwashing, he is shown to be able to control the movements of his paralyzed _target as well, as he was able to force a paralyzed Echidna into pointing her weapon at herself.
  • Apathy: Due to his natural emotionlessness, he did not have to face any materialized distraction on planet Toki.

Kyu-metal2
Hebitsukai Metal (Good)

After being brainwashed by Akyanba, Naga's Hebitsukai Kyutama is converted into the Dark Kyutama. Inserting this Kyutama into his Seiza Blaster turns the transformation device into the Dark Seiza Blaster, which allows Naga to transform into this form. In this form, his suit is covered in purple and yellow garb, with the snake emblem on his head partially painted red and his Kyu Sickle adopting a darker color scheme.

Hebitsukai Metal possesses powerful abilities previously lacked by Hebitsukai Silver, including using the scarf around his neck to restrain his _targets, as well as firing a powerful beam blast from the snake eye ornament on his chest.

After being freed from Akyanba's control, he can now use this form in full control. He now uses the regular Seiza Blaster. While he keeps his garb, he retains everything else from Hebitsukai Silver.

Etymology

  • His name comes from

Nāga, the name of a snake deity found in Hinduism, in keeping with his snake theme.

Notes

  • Of the 88 modern constellations, Naga represents

Ophiuchus.

  • Due to the discarding of emotions, Naga Ray's people are depicted to have identical faces with Naga.
  • Occasionally, Naga breaks the fourth wall, sharing his thoughts with the audience on a statement made by another character - usually to comic effect.
  • Due to Power Rangers Cosmic Fury not having a Silver Ranger, Naga has no direct counterpart in the series. His closest comparison is Blue Ranger Ollie Akana, who fills a similar story role as the team member brainwashed into becoming a villain.
