Dai Gattai Don Onitaijin (大合体ドンオニタイジン "Great Combination Don Oni-Exterminating God") is the main Giant Robo of the Donbrothers in Avataro Sentai Donbrothers.
Overview
The combined form of the core Donbrothers in their Robotaro forms, Don Onitaijin is unique in being able to alter its size from average human height to towering mecha height. The mecha is controlled mostly by Don Momotaro, while the other four can take control from their respective components. Don Onitaijin is armed with the Kijin Swords (キジンソード Kijin Sōdo), which are stored on the back Sashimono-style, and the black gunbai-based Donbai (ドンばい) military fan. It is capable of moving at great speed despite its armored appearance, and utilize Kiji Brother Robotaro's wings mounted on the shoulders to achieve the power of flight. Some of its attacks include:
- The Oni Kick (鬼キック Oni Kikku) rapid-fire kicks with the Oni Sister Robotaro right leg.
- Don Onitaijin can execute a flying kick through the air.
- The Continuous Sky Monkey Strike (天空猿連撃 Tenkū Saru Rengeki) series of punches with the Saru Brother Robotaro's arms.
- The Kiji Missile (キジミサイル Kiji Misairu) pheasant-style rockets fired from Kiji Brother Robotaro's beak.
- A powerful cyclone attack generated from the Donbai when Don Onitaijin is human-sized.
- Five lasers fired from Don Onitaijin's eyes and the sunglasses from the other four Robotaro components.
Its finisher is the Matchless Peach: Donbro Paradise (一騎桃千・ドンブラパラダイス Ikkitōsen Donbura Paradaisu), where Don Onitaijin combines the Kiji Swords to enlarge them before generating six energy peaches that fuse to one on the Kiji Swords. The blade is then encased in pink flames before slicing the Hitotsuking in half upon its destruction.
TV STORY-Don 12: The Moon Is Lying Don Onitaijin can utilize an alternate finisher, where it generate three energy peaches on each Kiji Sword that turns into pink flames and execute two diagonal slashes to destroy the Hitotsuking. TV STORY-Don 20: High Nose Elegy
According to Taro Momoi, the only downside of this mecha is that this formation weakens Taro in the brief moments after Don Onitaijin finishes a battle. TV STORY-Don 13: Goodbye Taro

Behind the Scenes
Portrayal
Don Onitaijin's suit actor is Yohei Fujita (藤田 洋平 Fujita Yōhei) who also provided the motion capture for Don ZenkaiOh.
Design
Don Onitaijin's design is evocative of an armored samurai, especially evident in the mecha's helmet and shoulderpads.
Etymology
- Don Onitaijin's name is a combination of Oni (鬼), Taiji (退治), and Jin (神).
Notes
- Don Onitaijin is:
- Out of any of the primary Sentai Team Robos, to hold the record of taking the longest time to properly debut in its series at double that of Go-Buster Oh (Go-Buster Oh debuted in the sixth episode of it's own series, whereas Don Onitaijin debuted in the twelfth of Donbrothers).
- The first Sentai Team Robo to appear at human size normally, a concept that was originally intended to be used with Zenkaiger's ZenkaiOh before production issues set in.
- The boat that the Robotaro ride and the fortress they come to, as well as the boat for Don Onitaijin’s finisher, is a reference to the last leg of Momotaro’s journey where Momotaro and his allies went to the island of the oni for a final battle.
- Of the core five Donbrothers' Robotaro forms, only Don Robotaro and the Saru Brother Robotaro have been used outside of the whole group transforming, with the Don Robotaro appearing before the whole group in the next episode and the Saru Brother Robotaro being used by Future Saru Brother.
