SENTAI
Queen
of the Dal Tribe, when dinosaurs and humans
co-existed, Bandora was the peaceful mother of Kai.
However, after her son was killed by a dinosaur,
Bandora turned to Dai Satan to avenge his death.
Given magic in exchange for her soul, the witch and
her bizarre set of followers proceeded to wipe out the
dinosaurs, but were soon banished into a canister by
the Zyuranger, the five beast protectors, praised in
the image of God.
Millions of years later, two inquisitive astronauts
opened the prison, and unleashed the evil within. With
unlimited magical abilities, a treacherous crew, and a
monster army at her disposal, Bandora proved a
menacing foe to the Zyurangers, but would soon meet
her downfall. During a last attempt to defeat the
Zyuranger, Dai Satan arrived with a gift for Bandora -
her resurrected son. He was killed again, however, and
when Bandora began to cry, her magic left her. She was
thus once again imprisoned within a magically sealed
canister.
In Zyuranger, Bandora has
her very own theme song, which is as follows:
Do-dora dora do-do-dora dora
Do-do la-la do-do la-la Bandora (hah!)
Do-dora dora do-do-dora dora
Do-do la-la do-do la-la Bandora
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Comparison/Contrast of
Rita and Bandora
Bandora displayed much
more magical ability than Rita, and her magic, linked
to Satan himself, proved much more serious, as in the
episode where she summons Dai Satan for the first
time. Here, she states that if she does not
complete her spells it may cost her life. Later on,
applying too much force to her magic, she begins to
cry blood.
Despite her greater
abilities, Bandora showed less of commanding attitude,
and would seldom become angry at her crew or at her
loss. Actually, Bandora proved more compassionate and
human, as she began to cry at her son's death. Don't
forget her cheery theme song.
