Hant Jo

This article is about a Ranger in Engine Sentai Go-Onger.

Hant Jo (城 範人, Jō Hanto) is Go-On Green (ゴーオングリーン, Gōon Gurīn) of the Go-Ongers.

History[]

Early Life[]

Nicknamed the "Vagabond," he's a light-hearted, almost childish pizza boy from Doki Doki (heart-pounding) Pizzeria who saw the Go-Ongers canceling their transformation until Gunpei Ishihara's actions cost him his job.

Go-Onger[]

Soon after, he follows Gunpei Ishihara after he kidnaps BOMPER and learns about the Go-Onger technology. Seeing the Go-Ongers in trouble, he helps Gunpei return the Engine Casts he stole to the Go-Ongers and is given a Henshin Brace Shift Changer. With this he was able to morph into Go-On Green, joining Gunpei who then became Go-On Black.

Hant has since been fired from his pizza job but is very excited at the prospect of being a Go-Onger. After a couple of missions, he and Gunpei learn that their Engines have arrived on Earth. While he was able to find the Engine Birca, its split into Engine Soul and Engine Cast threw the cast up in the air and landed in the hands of Water Pollution Minister Kegalesia. He was later able to retrieve it and Birca acknowledged him as his partner. TV STORY-GP 02: Reckless Guys Enthusiastic, kindhearted, but immature, Hant seems to always have a part-time job of some sort; one of these was at a crepe stand so that he could talk with girls his age (he lied to his teammates, telling them that he was working to supplement their food budget so they could buy barbecue meat). Hant's love of amusement parks prevents him from getting nauseous when Birca uses his Bircutter. After the final battle, Hant is a fretter once again, and again working for the Doki Doki Pizzeria.

After transforming into Go-on Green, Hant says, "Doki Doki Delight!! Go-On Green" (ドキドキ愉快！！ゴーオングリーン, Dokidoki Yukai!! Gōon Gurīn). One of his attacks is his Cycle Punch. With the Bridge Axe (ブリッジアックス, Burijji Akkusu) he can perform the Axe Touring (アックスツーリング, Akkusu Tsūringu).

Encountering the Gekiranger, the Go-Ongers lose the Engine Souls to the Gaiark and Meka. During this time everyone learns that Hant once worked with the Abarangers in their restaurant giving him some insight into the world of Sentai. With Retsu Fukami and Gou Fukami's help, Renn and Hanto manage to gain Geki. With Engine-Ken, a new type of Geki fighting fist, Hant was able to access his beast spirit (which turned out to be Birca). With this he performs Baru Baru Dan, where Birca, apart of his Engine Soul, attacks, as a manifestation of will. MOVIE STORY-Engine Sentai Go-Onger vs. Gekiranger

Shinkenger vs. Go-Onger[]

After a difficult fight against Pollution President Batcheed, he and Saki were transported to Junk World where they met up with Ryunosuke Ikenami of the Shinkengers. MOVIE STORY-Samurai Sentai Shinkenger vs. Go-Onger: GinmakuBang!!

Gokaiger[]

Legend War[]

A few years later, Hant fought alongside not only his own team, but every single Sentai Ranger in existence, against the Empire of Zangyack when it attacked the Earth in the Great Legend War. After fighting against hundreds of Gormin and their Sugormin commanders. Akaranger noticed the fleet moving towards them, he gathered all the Rangers together and gave them the order to sacrifice their powers to wipe out the first invasion's armada.

Farewell Space Pirates[]

After the defeat of Ackdos Gill, the Gokaiger returned all the Ranger Keys to the former Sentai heroes. Hant and his team have their powers again. TV STORY-Final Ep.: Farewell Space Pirates

Super Hero Taisen[]

Hant, alongside his team (the Go-On Wings were absent), among the majority of the Super Sentai heroes, was caught up in the "Super Hero Taisen" incident which eventually resulted in the Super Sentai teams and Kamen Riders joining forces to defeat both Dai-Zangyack and Dai-Shocker. During the final battle he is seen fighting Zangyack Commander Shikabanen with Kamen Rider Faiz. MOVIE STORY-Kamen Rider × Super Sentai: Super Hero Taisen

Zyuohger vs. Ninninger[]

Go-On Green appeared with his team among the first 38 Super Sentai whom collectively empowered Wild Tousai Shuriken King in its fight against the titanic Gillmarda, granting the Ninningers and Zyuohgers the power to perform the Zyuoh Ninnin Super Sentai Burst which destroyed Gillmarda with the combined power of all 40 Super Sentai.

Chou Super Hero Taisen[]

An iteration of Go-On Green was selected to participate in the Chou Super Hero Taisen tournament as a member of Team Highspeed to try and win the right to become the Goriders (with Go-On Green trying to become Mido-Rider). Go-On Green and his team beat Team Detective in the first round but were ultimately beaten by Team Flying in the second round. MOVIE STORY-Kamen Rider × Super Sentai: Chou Super Hero Taisen

• Hant Jo is portrayed by Masahiro Usui (碓井 将大, Usui Masahiro).

• As Go-On Green, his suit actor was Yasuhiro Takeuchi (竹内 康博, Takeuchi Yasuhiro), who previously suit acted GekiBlue. In Engine Sentai Go-Onger: 10 Years Grand Prix, he was portrayed by the late Daichi Nobe (野邉 大地, Nobe Daichi), who previously suit acted Engine Bro's from Kamen Rider Build who, having tragically passed away not long after production, made it a posthumous performance.

• In the Korean dub of Go-Onger entitled Power Rangers Engine Force, which aired in South Korea, Hant is known as "Joe", while her designation is "Engine Green".

Design[]

• As a civilian Go-Onger, Hant wears a black racer jacket with some green accents. The jacket bears designs of many logos on the front and back.
• As Go-On Green, he sports a green spandex with the chest bearing a golden number "4" that resembles an orca. He also wears white gloves and green boots. His black belt is connected with the silver V-buckle worn on the shoulders. His helmet resembles the front view of Engine Birca.

Etymology[]

Ranger Key[]

The Go-On Green Ranger Key (ゴーオングリーンレンジャーキー, Gōon Gurīn Renjā Kī) is Hant Jo's personal Ranger Key and what became of his powers after he along with the rest of the 34 Super Sentai sacrificed their powers to end the Great Legend War.

This key along with the majority of the Ranger Keys were collected by the Red Pirates and later used by the Gokaigers. The Go-On Green Ranger Key was mainly used by Don Dogoier (Gokai Green), who used it to fight as Go-On Green.

• When the Gokaigers became the Go-Ongers while fighting against Gormin while Marvelous was absent. TV STORY-Ep. 5: Judgement Pirates
• When the Gokaigers became the Go-Ongers while fighting a Zangyack force led by Insarn and Barizorg. MOVIE STORY-Gokaiger Goseiger Super Sentai 199 Hero Great Battle
• When the Gokaigers became the Go-Ongers while fighting Action Commander Uorlian. TV STORY-Ep. 19: Armor of the 15 Warriors
• When the Gokaigers became the Go-Ongers in their fight with Pollution President Babatcheed. TV STORY-Ep. 36: Partner Pirate

After Zangyack were finally defeated, the Gokaigers gave the Ranger Keys back to their rightful owners. It is presumed that Hant received his key and became Go-On Green once more.
