Biography[]

Past[]

Uchu Emperor Dagded Dujardin is a cosmic being of unknown origin whose purpose is to destroy planets to maintain order in the universe. However, he grew bored of his purpose and decided that he would have fun by having the denizens of target worlds destroy each other instead. He gathered a group of powerful and dangerous insect-like aliens who become his "jesters", establishing the Galactinsects as they manipulated the denizens of multiple inhabited planets into killing each other for their amusement. Two worlds that Galactinsects attacked were prehistoric Earth and the planet which the Bagnarak originated from, the latter planet being destroyed. Peoples from both planets migrated to Tikyu two millennia before the events of the series, with Dadged forcing the Husty royal family to have humans declare war on the Bagnarak in return for his favor.

Eventually, King Causus Husty approached Dadged to give them a child since his wife could no longer bare him another. Dadged accepts and gifts Casus's wife with the baby that would become Gira Husty. Though Causus planned on turning Gira into a weapon to use on Dagded after the pregnancy killed his wife, Dadged actually created Gira to be prepped by Causus as Tikyu's destroyer. But events of Causus's death and the Wrath of God, both caused by Glodi Leucodium and Kamejim under Dadged's orders, allowed Racules to sent Gira away to live a normal life while he played the role of a puppet until the chance to kill Dadged presents itself.

King-Ohger[]

The Uchu are summoned to Earth by Kamejim after he reveals his betrayal to Naraka King Desnarak VIII and the King-Ohgers; later rejoining the organisation as Kamejim Unka after his apparent death at the hands of God King-Ohger. Two years later, they return to Earth when Dujardin first sends down Kamejim to slaughter the Bagnarak and his other four generals to suppress the other four kingdom whilst he himself goes to attack Shuggodam. Upon introducing himself, Dagded Dujardin rains down devastating meteors on Shuggodam as revenge for mishearing his name as Dead Tired. When confronting Kamejim about apparently lying about the Bagnarak's destruction though, he finds Gira and shows him a planet the Galactinsects destroyed. He then reveals that he masterminded Kamejim's plan to turn humans and the Bagnarak against each other and his motivation. After returning to Earth, he reveals the subjugation of the other four kingdoms made possible by Racules Hastie's previous schemes but his generals are swiftly forced out by the King-Ohgers when they return from exile although Dagded himself manages to survive Jeramie and Gira's Spider and King-Ohger Finishes before leaving.

Dagded is temporarily killed by Racules and Gira exploiting his prior act of giving part of his power to Racules' OhgerCalibur Zero, which made it capable of killing immortals. Despite his death, the Galactinsects keep going with their conquests and he is finally revived once Minongan is killed as the Jester has been his living body backup all along, Minongan revives afterwards with his entire identity gone and Dagded resumes his activities as if nothing happened. However, the act of being killed has secretly driven him mad, prompting Dagded to more actively mess with the heroes and their planet.

With most of his jesters dead and Minongan sealed away, leaving only Kamejim, the King-Ohgers entrust Rcules to secure the five fragments of King's Proofs and Venomix Shooter during an evacuation from Chikyu while they engage in battle against Dagded. However, Dagded catches on to their attempt and sends Kamejim to steal them. Goroge, who survived Kamejim's assassination attempt exposes the jester, and Desnarak is resurrected in time to aid his fellow Chikyu citizens and the King-Ohgers against Uchu. Dagded summons an army of revived mindless Kajim led by revived copies of the defeated Jesters but they in turn are wiped out by the reinforcements from the afterlife; Desnarak, Iroki, Boshimar, Nephilia, Karras and Reiniol Husty, who himself briefly fights and wounds Dagded; informing the King-Ohgers' of his weakness before returning to Hakabaka.

Now no longer untouchable, Dagded battles the King-Ohgers once more only to be overwhelmed so he grows to his true giant universe-sized form where he is almost victorious but is finally overwhelmed by God King-Ohger which manages to even strip him of all his divine power and immortality at the cost of the Shugods' sacrifice (reducing them to mere souls). Reduced to a mere powerless mortal, and vulnerable due to his head crystal breaking, the King-Ohgers confront the powerless Space King and strike him with a powerful united King-Ohger Finish; vaporizing his real tardigrade body which kills Dagded Dujardin once and for all and avenges the millions of lives ended for his amusement.

Personality[]

Uchu Emperor Dagded Dujardin is on the surface an affable and vaguely polite gentlemen albeit one with a playful and teasing child-like personality. In reality though, he is an extremely sadistic, sociopathic, manipulative, chaotic, ruthless, egotistical, malevolent, and violent leader whose only interest is his own entertainment and fulfilment at the cost of others. Seeing the whole universe as his "playground," Dagded possesses a very twisted view of perfection; believing he has to "cleanse" the universe by sow seeds of distrust between species to make them fight and exterminate each other and only doing it "because it's fun."

As evidenced by his actions and Dagded referring to himself with the prefix "oresama", he is also incredibly vain and narcissistic which also makes him very petty. Just because Gira Hastie got his name wrong since the Japanese words for Dead Tired sound similar to his name, Dagded rained down meteors to devastate Shuggodam. Despite his arrogance, Dagded is smart enough to plan for the future; rewarding those who serve him dutifully like the Hasties and being careful to never come across as a complete despot.

His haughtiness ultimately turns out to be his greatest weakness, as his refusal to destroy the King-Ohgers on the spot despite having the chance several times throughout the series allows them to gradually grow in skill to match his forces and later on find a way to hurt and kill him. Even after his first death, he refused to take them seriously, which costs him all of his allies and servants as well as ultimately his divinity and immortality. In his final moments, he lost his composure completely; reduced to a screaming madman deluded about his non-existent victory right before he died.

Powers and Abilities[]

• Power: Galactinsect Emperor Dagded Dujardin was one of the most powerful characters in Super Sentai, having almost God-like powers, being able to warp and shape reality and virtually untouchable.
• Strength: Dagded was strong enough to grab and drag Gira through rocks whilst gliding as well as catch Racules' OhgerCalibur ZERO between his hands.
• Durability: Dagded was completely unfazed by relentless attacks from both King Kuwagata Ohger and Spider Kumonos and emerged unscathed after taking their Spider and King-Ohger Finish attacks head-on.

• Sight: Dagded Dujardin could see despite lacking eyes in his head.
• Speech: Dagded Dujardin could speak despite lacking a mouth.
• Longevity: Dagded had been alive for several thousand years but showed no negative side effects from ageing.

  • Image Projection: Dagded could generate a massive image of his head into the sky at will.

  • Dimensiokinesis: Dagded had absolute controls over his dimensions and warp them to his liking, often defying the laws of physics.

Weaknesses[]

• His Own Power: Ironically, Dagded's greatest weakness was his own great power as it could kill any immortal with him being no exception. He empowered Rcules' OhgerCalibur ZERO to kill Gira but Rcles betrayed him as he'd planned all along and Yanma was able to replicate and give the power to the King-Ohgers' weapons, finally allowing them to harm him.
• Arrogance: Dagded was an incredibly arrogant, cocky and supremacist villain who believed himself to be an unkillable God. However, this is also his main weakness as it led to him making multiple mistakes such as giving Rucles a weapon capable of killing immortals without considering he could be a turncoat.
  • Unstable Mental State: After reviving through Minnongan Moth, Dagded lost any form of calm and collectedness and became completely insane; leading to his final attack and ultimately his demise.

Arsenal[]

• Fists: Dagded Dujardin usually used no weapons but was a skilled fighter with his bare hands.
  • Energy Empowerment: Dagded could channel golden energy into his left palm to strike with enough force to send his enemies flying.
  • Energy Chop: Dagded could channel golden energy into his left palm to turn it into a golden cutter which he used to try and destroy Racules' OhgerCalibur ZERO but Gira blocked it.
• Uchu Sword: Dagded could summon several energy swords to damage his enemies. He could also materialize the said sword.

Quotes[]

Trivia[]

• His name is a play on Hypsibius dujardini; a specific type of water bear.
• He's clearly based of the Anti-Spiral from Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann; being malevolent cosmic entities who have overlooked the events of the series from the start and control the lives of the heroes and their allies and enemies alike for their own purposes, and once they reveal themselves, they become the main villains for the second half. And like the Anti-Spiral, Dagded meets his end at the hands of the heroes' ultimate robot combination made specifically to fight them despite their borderline omnipotence.
