Tensou Sentai Goseiger: Epic on the Movie (天装戦隊ゴセイジャー エピックON THEムービー, Tensō Sentai Goseijā Epikku On Za Mūbī) is the title of the film edition of the 34th Super Sentai Series Tensou Sentai Goseiger. It was released on August 7, 2010, double-billed with the Kamen Rider W film W Forever: A to Z/The Gaia Memories of Fate.[1] The film follows the Goseigers as they try to save the Earth from Warstar's surviving members.[2][3] to obtain the Horn of Ragnarok (ラグナロクの角笛, Ragunaroku no Tsunobue).[4] Like W Forever, Epic on the Movie was also filmed in 3-D.
The film's primary guest star is Sayaka Isoyama as Rasil (ラシル, Rashiru), who is the guardian of the Horn of Ragnarok.[5] Isoyama is known for her role as Ran Saotome/Sazer-Visuel in Chouseishin Gransazer. Also appearing in the film is Higuchi-kun, Louis Yamada LIII's boke in the manzai duo Hige Danshaku, as the announcer Katta Higuchi (樋口 勝太, Higuchi Katta).
Plot
[edit]After hearing a strange voice, Alata eventually locates a strange girl who introduces herself as Rasil before she leaves to find a horn. Before he can investigate further, he and his fellow Goseigers are alerted to the presence of the Warstar army's remnants, who attack Hokuto University for one of two meteorite samples. The Goseigers head to the local museum to retrieve the remaining meteorite, only to learn Rasil already took it. Suddenly, the group is attacked by Warstar members Gyōten'ō and Deinbaruto, who steal Rasil's meteorite and combine it with theirs to reveal the Horn of Ragnarok before leaving. After Rasil tells the Goseigers that the horn is a doomsday weapon capable of destroying worlds before fleeing again, Alata pursues her and eventually learns that she is the sole survivor of an alien world that was destroyed by the horn and now wants to stop Warstar from using it. With this knowledge, he assures her that he and his friends will stop Warstar.
Meanwhile, Buredoran leaves the Yuumajuu to reassume his Warstar form and offer his services to Gyōten'ō and Deinbaruto, who intend to destroy Earth in retaliation for the Goseigers defeating their compatriots.[a] Upon being confronted by the Goseigers, Gyōten'ō uses the horn to summon specters of dead Warstar members to fight them. Nonetheless, the Goseigers are joined by Gosei Knight, who helps them defeat the specters and kill Deinbaruto. Undeterred, Gyōten'ō eats the horn and orders Buredoran to enlarge him. Using his enhanced power, the former damages the Goseigers' mecha, but Rasil gives them the power to summon a new one to kill Gyōten'ō and destroy the horn. As Buredoran retreats to rejoin the Yuumajuu, Rasil thanks the Goseigers for their help before leaving to rebuild her home world.
