Character history: Marvelous is from space, though he is human. Humans exist in space, and where in space doesn't particularly matter. Just, he is from space. Growing up as a street urchin, basically, he had very little to his name, except for his name. At a young age in a moment of mortal peril, the Metal Hero known as Space Sheriff Gavan came to his rescue and gave him words of encouragement. As he grew, strife also began to grow across the universe. The "Zangyack Empire," under the rule of Ackdos Gil, was rising and conquering large portions of the universe. Marvelous learned to make a living off the backs of being a nuisance to them, and somehow always managed to survive his encounters. One thing he nearly didn't survive, though, was an encounter with a bounty hunter named Kiaido. Kiaido provided Marvelous with a taste of true, absolute fear that would haunt him for years to come, and it was an incident he barely escaped.
On the planet Earth, an event called the "Legend War" erupted as the Zangyack Empire attempted to overthrow them. They were countered and thwarted by the combined efforts of the 34 Super Sentai teams. From Goranger to Goseiger, they fought and gave the entirety of their powers to push back the Zangyack fleet. The powers scattered out across the universe, compacted into objects called "Ranger Keys." The embodiment of all Red Warriors, AkaRed, witnessed this, and set out across the universe to collect these powers. Becoming a pirate to counter ZangyacZangyack's forces, AkaRed would come across Marvelous and bring him into his crew aboard his ship, the Gokai Galleon, as they set out to gather the 194 Ranger Keys. Joined by another young man named Basco, and AkaRed's mysterious robot parrot companion, Navi, they became known as the Red Pirates... and developed into quite a pain in the Empire's rear.
After collecting most of the Keys, Marvelous, Navi, and AkaRed were sold out by Basco to the Empire. In the ensuing battle, AkaRed was seemingly lost, as he entrusted the Ranger Keys, Navi, and the Galleon to Marvelous, asking him to seek out the "Greatest Treasure in the Universe." As he set out on his own, Marvelous would also find something else aboard the Galleon hidden from him until that time - five devices called Mobirates, which allowed him to utilize the power of any Ranger Key, and five MORE Ranger Keys of a Super Sentai that had never existed. Marvelous became a "Gokaiger," Gokai Red. However, he obviously needed a crew.
On a remote planet, he discovered a Zangyack traitor on the run from their forces, Joe Gibkin. Seeing his resolve, Marvelous recruited him and Joe became Gokai Blue. When raiding a Zangyack ship's vault, they came across a feisty female thief, Luka Millfy, who was interest in their promise of the Greatest Treasure, and became Gokai Yellow. When the Galleon was broke down and they needed a way to get in the air again, the came across an eccentric mechanical genius, Don Dogoier, whom they nicknamed "Doc." He became Gokai Green. After the planet Famille was destroyed by the Empire, the last survivor of its royal family, the Princess Ahim de Famille, requested to join their crew so that she could oppose the Empire and show her remaining people she was alive and fighting. Despite not proving to be the most adept fighter at first, Ahim became Gokai Pink.
The five together were the Pirate Sentai Gokaiger, and became such a problem for the Zangyack that their bounties started to skyrocket. When united together, they could utilize the four other "Gokai Machines" inside Gokai Galleon to create "Gokai-Oh," a powerful giant robot that they took great pleasure in using to wreck any Zangyack fleet they came across. Eventually, their search led them to the planet Earth, where a small Zangyack search fleet was scouting it to invade again. This small fleet was immediately wiped out as Gokai-Oh busted through its blockade on its way to Earth.
Once on the planet, though, their search for the Greatest Treasure is cut short as a larger fleet appears in the scouting one's place. Headed by the ship "Gigant Horse," this fleet was one commanded by Ackdos Gil's son, the Prince Walz Gil. The Zangyack prepare to invade, and the Gokaigers themselves prepare to get the hell out of town after their lunch is ruined... when they come across a group of school children and their teachers being threatened at gunpoint by Zangyack troops. They intervene, revealing their presence to the world, and their ability to utilize the powers of the past Super Sentai. However, they shrug off any praise and continue along their merry way.
Navi begins to have one of her first "Treasure Navigation" sessions, wherein she becomes briefly able to spout off brief clues to where their search must lead them next, this time being a "man in black." Marvelous soon runs into a kid who snatches his Shinken Red key, as he questions why they have these powers if they're not going to use them to save people. As another Action Commander attacks, Marvelous hands over his Mobirates to allow the kid to transform into Shinken Red, and quickly gets his ass kicked. Taking the Key and Mobirates back, Marvelous and his crew leave...
...to quickly dispatch of the attacking Zangyack forces again. Later, when dealing with another Action Commander, they come across the aforementioned "man in black" - namely, the former Magi Red, Kai. After Doc proves his courage to Kai, they come into possession of their first "Ultimate Power," that of the Magirangers. This allows them to summon a mecha known as Magi Dragon, which is able to combine with Gokai-Oh.
As time goes on, they trade off dealing with Zangyack threats to their treasure hunt, which just so happens ends up with them saving the world on occasion, and searching for former Super Sentai members to obtain their teams' Ultimate Powers. Marvelous ends up encountering Doggie Cruger, former Deka Master of Dekaranger, and proves that a cop can trust a pirate when the going gets tough, earning that power, and the mecha Pat Striker.
They subsequently earn the Gekirangers' power from Geki Red, and the Gaorangers' from Gao Red, which earns them the mecha Gao Lion. Not all former Sentai members are friendly, however. Shiba Kaoru, one of the many people in her family that has held the title of Shinken Red, confronts the Gokaigers' and demands her team's powers returned, attacking them. Joe faces off against her, but a Zangyack attack prevents it from continuing. Marvelous is injured in the resulting battle, while Joe learns a Zangyack soldier named Barizorg is his former mentor Cid brainwashed into a cyborg. The Gokaigers end up earning Kaoru's trust, and the Shinkengers' Ultimate Power, which allows Gao Lion to combine with Gokai-Oh to create Shinken Gokai-Oh. Soon after, they gain the Carrangers' power from Red Racer.
However, then things go badly. Basco returns as a privateer authorized by the Empire, with a sidekick monkey named Sally. Basco turns out to have gotten hold of several Ranger Keys himself - those belonging to most of the "sixth Rangers" of the Sentai teams. Wielding a trumpet that lets him create clone warriors from the powers, he defeats the Gokaigers and captures Marvelous' crew with an ultimatum - trade them for the rest of the Keys. Marvelous and Navi end up calling Basco's bluff and manage to free the others. They then defeat the cloned Sixth Warriors, obtaining their Keys in the process.
Following this, they come into conflict with another past team, the entirety of Tensou Sentai Goseiger. The Goseigers steal their own powers' Keys back, and come into battle with the Gokaigers on multiple occasions. However, the enemy of the first Sentai, Black Cross King, returns and manages to steal all but the Gokaiger and Goseiger Ranger Keys. The angels and pirates are forced to form a begrudging alliance, and in the end they earn the acceptance and Ultimate Powers of 11 Sentai teams, including Goranger and Goseiger. Goranger grants them the form of Goren Gokai-Oh, which they use to kill Black Cross King. The Goseigers return the Keys to the Gokaigers for the time being, trusting them.
Suddenly, there comes the appearance of another Gokaiger - Ikari Gai, Gokai Silver, an earthling. It turns out he received his powers from the spirits of three dead Sixth Rangers after his own near death experience. Marvelous at first takes Gai's Key and changer from him, until he proves why he would be a worthy addition to the crew. As Gai proves to be willing to fight Zangyack with powers or not, Marvelous finds his dedication impressive and allows him to join the crew. From there, they come into another encounter with Basco, as he reveals to have even MORE Ranger Keys - the Keys belonging to the various extra Rangers beyond the main six of most teams. During this fight, they recover the Key of Black Knight Hyuuga, and gain the Gingaman's Ultimate Power.
While they had already received Boukenger's Ultimate Power in the Black Cross King incident, Bouken Red - Akashi - comes to the Gokaigers for help, which they offer. The encounter leads Marvelous to remember various past moments with AkaRed. Little did Marvelous realize that Akashi himself had encountered AkaRed five years prior. Ahim & Luka obtain the power of GoGo V from Go Pink in another fight with Basco. Then, the children of past Hurricanger enemies arrive to help the Empire. This is thwarted by the help of the three main Hurricangers, and they reclaim their former powers briefly to assist the Gokaigers in battle. This also nets the pirates the Hurricanger power, in the form of the mecha Furaimaru.
Kiaido arrives on Earth to collect the Gokaigers' bounty, and is at first more of a force than they can reckon with. This messes with Marvelous' mind, and he receives guidance from the spirit of Yuki Gai, former Black Condor of Jetman. With that, they use the Jetman powers to defeat Kiaido and gain that team's power, while Yuki Gai's spirit returns to Heaven with his work done. The former Abare Blue shows them the true strength of Abaranger's Ultimate Power, while in searching for a former Liveman member Joe comes to a realization about Barizorg.
Basco, meanwhile, had been forcefully taking the Ultimate Powers of three other teams, and moves to blackmail Oh Red of Ohranger into a position where the same will happen to him. The Gokaigers intervene and stop this, defeating the remainder of Basco's Ranger Key clones. However, Basco ends up showing he isn't human - the human face was merely a disguise, and he's actually an extremely powerful alien who hands the team their asses. Afterwards, Doc uses the Ohranger's power to create a new weapon, the Gokai Galleon Buster. Gai, then, encounters Ryuu Ranger of Dairanger and obtains that power.
The team comes to assist Sousuke, Go-on Red of Go-onger, in traveling to another world to help his team's "Engine Partners" that have come into trouble. However, when the returned forces of Go-onger's enemy, Gai-Ark, locks them all in another reality, they have to find two of the Engines' son, Machalcon - a giant mecha race car - so that he can traverse the boundaries and get them home. The Engines have the ability to transcend dimensional barriers, but the rest of them are lacking in power now. Machalcon is a wild child, but Marvelous and the others are able to get him to settle down and help, and he's basically made a member of the team. Using the Go-onger's Ultimate Power then allows them to summon Machalcon, and combine him with Gokai-Oh.
Walz Gil receives a gift from his father - a powerful mecha called the Great Walz. The Great Walz proves too strong for Gokai-Oh, and its nearly destroyed. Marvelous ends up ejecting the other crew members in order to save them, ending up injured in the process. In searching for Marvelous, Joe ends up killing his former mentor Barizorg, and when they all come together they end up being stronger than before with their near death experiences. As they fight the Great Walz again, they're able to unlock the Ultimate Power of THEIR team, allowing them to combine the Galleon, Gai's GoJyuJin, and Machalcon into their strongest combined form - Kanzen Gokai-Oh. Kanzen Gokai-Oh makes short work of the Great Walz, killing the Zangyack Prince in the process.
After they avert another of Basco's plots and attain the Megaranger's power, they are summoned for a mission by Timeranger's Time Yellow to travel to the past. There, come across the Shinkengers and Goseigers at a time when those two teams united. They also encounter one of the Shinkenger's last remaining enemies, and make short work of him as a payment for getting the Shinkenger's Ultimate Power months before. Before leaving, they come across one of the Goseiger's enemies and destroy one of their creations. Once back in their own time, however, things get WORSE.
Emperor Ackdos Gil arrives with a larger fleet to replace his son's. He sends one of his Generals to attack Earth, who ends up being the one who destroyed Famille long ago. When Ahim attempts to leave on her own to face him, Marvelous and the others stop her, Marvelous in particular concerned about her just up and leaving. They go to fight this General as a team, and defeat him.
Later, they come to hear from a magazine - which is actually a hoax planted by Doc to make himself look cool - of a "Legendary Hero" who vanished long ago named Don Dogoier. However, Damaras - Walz Gil's general, and the "Strongest Man In The Universe" - arrives to wipe the pirates out, with Basco helping. Damaras wipes the floor with them, and seemingly kills everyone but Marvelous and Doc. Marvelous is captured and brought before the Emperor before being sent back to Earth for a public execution. Doc is able to save Marvelous, however, and the others arrived unharmed - it turns out they were saved by BASCO, who wants to keep Marvelous around so he can attain the last couple Ultimate Powers before he steals them. At this point, Basco's also stolen two more himself. The Gokaigers turn their attentions to Damaras, however, and destroy him.
On Christmas, after helping a brother and sister, they attain the Battle Fever J power from a Battle Kenya disguised as a sidewalk Santa. Then, they find out that a temple they saved when traveling back in time was housing Ninjaman, an ally of the Kakurangers. They manage to gain the Kakurangers' Ultimate Power in the process.
