Doctor Z (ドクターZ Dokutā Zetto) is the Blatantly Evil Marketing Firm B's head. His true identity is Takehiro Tsuzuki, Hiroyo's father who was a brilliant scientist admired by his peers until he becomes obsessed with becoming an anime illustrator. After scouting for opportunities without success, Takehiro managed to land a job as a character designer for the Z-Cune Aoi anime series, but his rough and violent sketches (including those of ©Na) were rejected by the studio and he was fired.
History[]
He first appeared as the Mysterious Man (謎の男 Nazo no Otoko), a long-haired vagrant who witnesses the Akibarangers' battle with Tsukishima Alpaca in Akihabara. He is given Yumeria's business card by Akiba Yellow, which he passes to ©Na.

After the Akibarangers accidentally defeated Delu-Knight, he reunited with his daughter despite her fear that it was part of "His" plan to end the show. TV STORY-Ep. 12: Most Painful Times. Farewell, Delusional Sentai
