What's going on?! They attacked as soon as we reached the station!
I'm more worried that it's all Crows and no Shadow Monster!
Kagura!
No sense worrying about it!
Let's focus on fighting! Yeah?
To-Kagura Combination!
Rolling!
Passengers, please form an orderly line...
Please form an orderly line!
Fire!
What was that all about?
I dunno.
Hello?
Everyone, please come back.
Something's bothering me...
So, what's bothering you?
The trains seem to be working poorly.
It's similar to how they'd react being stopped at a Shadow Line station.
But this station is a regular one, right?
Moon River Town
Maybe it's connected to those Crows.
Maybe there's a Shadow Monster out there?
Who can say? That being the case—
—you'll have to look into it, while we're stopped at this station.
Go ahead and just look around, everyone.
Okay!
Oh my! How intensely vague!
Well, let's go around and see the sights!
I agree!
No, no...
We have to look for the Shadows!
I get you! And we can do both...
All six of us, aboard!
I can't go!
There's somewhere I need to be.
SUPER SENTAI SERIES
Express Sentai ToQGer will be departing at 7:30.
Please make sure not to miss your connection.

Ressha Sentai Hassha OORAI! ToQGer!
Express Sentai departing, alright! ToQGer!
And this is the guy running this plan you mentioned?
Yes, sir.
Coin Shadow here is undertaking the task.
The ToQGers coincidentally ran into some Crows,
but it should have no real impact on the plan.
You trying to say you're strong enough to take them out?
I don't even need to.
We will gather darkness, and expand our territory. Isn't that enough?
And the location in question is an interesting one...
I believe that in the future it will be less about these, and more about up here, sir.
Imbecile!
How dare you speak so rudely to the Emperor?!
- I get you...
Well, give it a shot.
This is nice!
So this is the historic district.
I could forget about the Shadows here.
You're right.
It's not bad.
Huh? Where's Kagura?
Huh?
Wha... where—?!
Huh?
Did she get lost?
Where am I?
I got separated from them...
I better find them, fast!
I wonder where Akira wanted to go...
Station 26 Bathhouse Battle Begins
Alright...
What're you doing?
Uh, I was... Uh, y'know...
Hirono Baths—?
You wanted to use the public bath, Akira?
Not a public bath; a bathhouse.
The Build Express doesn't have a bath, after all.
Oh, then you could use the showers in our trains—
It has a shower.
But no tub.
I love bathtubs.
No...
I love bathhouses!
You love them?
Get outta here, you punk!
You don't have to yell, I intend on leaving.
But staying gone means you pay what you owe.
Listen closely...
The deadline on this contract is tomorrow.
If you can't pay your debts by then,
I'll be demolishing this bathhouse.
Over my dead body!
No, Akira!
He's just a normal person!
So?!
Because...
I have done nothing wrong.
If you do something wrong, you're punished.
If you borrow money, you repay it.
It's only natural.
I might really be done for this time...
What happened?
Would you mind telling us?
Everything I did...
was for this bathhouse.
Youngsters don't like bathhouses much anymore, and with rising fuel costs...
I was wondering how to get more customers, when...
that fellow showed up, and started trying to convince me.
Oh, welcome!
Oh, no, I'm not a customer...
This...
He claimed to have a great idea to get new customers.
is who I am.
He told me that my bathhouse didn't have enough personality.
So he started saying we should be more competitive...
Competitive how?
Some places do a seasonal thing where they put iris roots and flowers in the water.
You know your baths, sonny.
I love this stuff.
Is that what it was?
I thought that's what he meant...
Let the competition begin!
But when he said competition,
he meant you had to compete to get into the bathhouse!
I panicked, and made him stop,
but then, he was talking about how it's all about super bathhouses nowadays.
Those are the big-time bathhouses that have baths, Jacuzzi, dining, and other services.
They're pretty good.
And yeah, I thought "That's it! That's the ticket!"
Welcome.
Super—?
...Bathhouse?
That clown went and built a supermarket in my bathhouse!
Between the settlement, and getting the bathhouse back to normal, I piled up a lot of debt...
I'm never gonna stop feeling bad about this mess.
That... kinda sounds to me like...
It's the other guy's fault!
I think so, too!
But as soon as I signed that contract,
there was nothing I could do about it...
Oh, there she is!
She's with Akira!
Hey!
Friends of yours?
Yeah!
Perfect!
Go ahead and head on in.
We're closing up after today!
...Why are we doing this?
Bathhouse rule #1:
No being embarrassed! Let it all hang out!
This place is huge!
I'm going first!
Rule #2:
Even if you're clean, you wash off first! Then you get in the water!
A-Akira, why are you so fired up—?
Rule #3:
This is too hot—!
Rule #19: You don't change the water's temperature!
Wow, it's so big!
It really is...
This is heavenly!
Mio, you sound like an old man!
But it is really nice!
Feels great.
I think I like bathhouses now!
That's good!
It's so hot!
Rule #18!
Rule #119:
Coffee Milk
When you get out, you drink one of these! Put your hand on your hip, and chug it down!
That's good!
...Why am I more exhausted?
You are?
Owner!
What's up?
The water was great!
Glad to hear it!
Fantastic...
Now... I won't have any regrets!
No, you don't get it.
I want to keep using this bathhouse!
This place is the best I've ever been to!
That's right! You can't give up already!
Yeah, but y'know...
If getting that contract back is all it takes, that'll be easy.
No, you can't!
Instead of that... we need a way to pay back the debt.
How?
I got it!
The Best Things at Hirono Baths!!
Wash Away the Day's Exhaustion at Hirono Baths!! It's local!
Hirono Baths! Please drop by!
If you're going to a bathhouse, think Hirono!
Please stop by!
I dunno why, but this is kinda fun!
Hirono Baths!
Come by Hirono Baths!
This is kinda...
Embarrassing!
I see...
Get their attention, plus advertise, equals customers.
Good plan.
Mom, come on!
Come stop by!
Hirono Baths is first rate!
I'll take one!
You've my personal guarantee.
This is kinda...
I'll see you there!
We should probably go ahead and try!
Hirono Baths!
Hirono Baths...
Hirono Baths!
Hirono Baths! It's nearby!
Please come and visit!
Wash away your cares!
Okay guys, let's switch lines!
Okay!
Now untransforming.
All passengers in a hurry, please make your transfers now.
Ta-da!
Wow, a magic trick!
Whoa whoa whoa...
Come by Hirono Baths!
An old fashioned chimney, and a sharp looking interior!
And an exquisite painting of Mt. Fuji on the wall!
It's certified heaven.
Look how many people came!
You did it, Kagura.
This is great!
So, now the place won't be demolished!
Still, weird how a bit of advertising drew this kind of crowd...
Nothing but 10 yen coins?
What's going on?
The explanation...
is right here.
10 yen admission?!
Who did this?!
I bet it was—
No!
- It was me!
Good idea, right?
No...
I mean, it did get a lot of customers, but...
There's no point doing that if he can't pay back the debt!
This is nowhere near enough to pay back that kind of money.
And the deadline's tomorrow...
Kids...
Thank you.
Mister...
You've already done more than enough.
I really appreciate how you all care.
So, it's—
- No, stop it!
I don't want Hirono Baths gone...
No matter what...
I will not...
Let that happen!
Alright, alright!
Okay.
Alright, alright, alright!
We did it!
What are you doing?!
Moving!
See, if we move it to that open lot then it's problem solved!
Uh, no...
Kagura, let's calm down. Someone might own that lot...
You should really find out first, and then—
Hang on! Look!
What is that?
It's a darkness pool.
Darkness pool?
A place where local geography leads to negative human emotions pooling together.
You could call it the opposite of a power spot.
I still don't get it...
Now I understand.
The darkness pool was keeping people away from Hirono Baths.
Is that why the trains are having trouble, too?
Is that what the Shadows were after?
Hello there, everyone.
Thanks for saving me the trouble of the demolition.
I appreciate it.
What—?
Who're you?
That's the guy the owner owes money to!
It's a bit early, but...
I'd like you all to vacate the premises.
This land belongs to—
- The contract's null and void.
What nonsense is this?!
I've got the contract right here.
That might apply to human law...
But do you really think the law applies to someone from outside the human world?
No way—!
This entire time, I wondered why you were after an old bathhouse like this.
But the darkness pool explains everything.
Show us your true form!
I see...
I guess it was all clear, for you...
A Shadow Monster!
Leave your financial matters to me.
I'm Coin Shadow.
I'm terribly sorry, but I can't let you have this land.
This darkness pool is extremely valuable.
We can build a new terminal here, not just a station,
and expand the Shadow Line to—
- Enough yapping!
If you're a bad guy, we beat you!
That's all there is to it!
Now transforming.
ToQ Change!
Please remain behind the white line while waiting.
ToQ #1!
ToQ #2!
- Fraud is illegal!
ToQ #3!
ToQ #4!
ToQ #5!

Imagining Victory!
Express Sentai,
ToQGer!
Come at me, then!
- Alright...
All...
aboard!
Hey!
Get him!
He's—
Hey!
Akira!
Coin Shower!
Platform Trigger!
Tokatti!
- I can't move!
- You alright?!
- No, you're fine!
How's that? My payouts are deadly.
Owww...
Make it rain!
You're going down, Coin Shadow!
You undermined a cultural pastime,
deceived that innocent owner, and insulted bathhouses!
And what of it?
Coin Sho—
What the—?
Alright!
Time to get—
- Right!
Let me borrow this!
ToQ #5 Pink now transferring to Red.
Rail Slasher!
I told you!
We're gonna beat you!
Go for it, Akira!
Alright!
Alright, alright!
Got him.
We did it!
Cash rules everything around me!
I'll take all the darkness from the pool inside of me!
I can't use the Build Express...
Let me use Diesel-Oh.
Got it! Here.
Express Coupling!
We thank you for riding with us!
ToQ-Oh as well as Diesel-Oh are completing formation.
The doors are now opening.
All aboard ToQ-Oh!
Diesel-Oh!
This thing's hard to maneuver.
I feel overflowing power!
With the power of the darkness pool at my disposal,
you have no chance!
In that case, let's combine some more!
Akira!
Got it.
Super Express Coupling!
Super ToQ Cannon!
I'm not through yet!
I feel... kinda... dazed...
It's like heat exhaustion.
All that darkness must've gotten to you.
I've got it!
Fire Express!
Coupling complete! Super ToQ-Oh Fire!
Time for a riddle!
Super ToQ-Oh Fire
What is flooded up above,
Ow, ow, ow ow!
That's cold! Too cold!
but on fire below?
Hot! Hot, hot, hot!
Too hot hot hot!
What could it be—?
Uh... a bank account?
Bzzt! Wrong!
The answer is... a bath!
I get it!
No one heats their baths like that anymore!
He's got a point.
Doesn't matter! Superheated Splash!
That's some really hot water!
Well done.
Wasn't it?!
Was it?
Akira!
- I guess...
Alright, alright!
Now the darkness pool is gone, the bathhouse is back to normal—
—and the debt problem's taken care of.
Hey!
That was a little crazy,
but all's well that end's well!
Everyone...
Thank you!
No need to thank us.
Hey...
Mister, can we ask for one thing?
Sure! Whatever you want!
Can we go in first?
Good idea!
Everything's all set! Hop on in!
Alright!
Let's go! Race you!
Next Station
On the next station...
The Hyper Express!
Right seems intensely angry!
Ah, my little dearie...
A stronger imagination than ever!
We'll buy some time.
Station 27 A New Power
I can't lose to you!
Be sure not to miss your train.
