Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger: The Movie - The Flying Ghost Ship 2011

Gai Ikari [Junya Ikeda] watches the morning sky grow suddenly darker as a colossal flying ghost ship cuts through the clouds, and he springs into action, summoning GouZyu Rex to investigate the surreal threat. The calm routine of a jog gives way to adrenaline as a towering replica of his fellow Gokaigers’ mecha GokaiOh—Fake GokaiOh—lands a brutal, unexpected blow and Then retreats into the misty hull of the spectral vessel. The encounter leaves him shaken, yet it also ignites a stubborn curiosity to uncover what lies behind this eerie apparition.

Back aboard the ship, the crew pieces together a chilling rumor: the ghost ship is real, spacefaring, and it supposedly guards a fabled treasure known as the God Eye, a relic said to grant its wielder any wish. The possibility of such a power offers a tantalizing contrast to their own long-standing quest for the “Greatest Treasure in the Universe,” and their resolve hardens. With reinforced resolve, the Gokaigers set course for the ghostly liner, driven by the lure of a prize that could redefine their fate and test the limits of their courage.

Upon reaching the ghost ship, a trio of revenant spirits harasses the crew, unwittingly guiding them toward the bridge where the God Eye rests. But their path is barred by Los Dark, the undead captain who is determined to harvest the crew’s souls to resurrect himself and seize the God Eye for his own sinister purposes. The confrontation reveals a new kind of peril: not merely a physical threat, but a desperate gamble with their very souls, as the ship’s eerie underworld-like pocket dimension begins to close in around them.

As the battles unfold, the Gokaigers realize that a straight fight won’t guarantee survival. With heavy hearts, most of the crew volunteers to stay behind as a distraction, buying time for their leader, Captain Marvelous [Ryota Ozawa], to slip through a portal and reach a backdoor path back to the ghost ship. The stakes rise as two waves of the foe’s defeated-ghost minions are repelled, while Marvelous charges toward the port of salvation, racing against fate to recover the God Eye and bring his comrades back to the fray.

When Marvelous finally wields the God Eye to grant a second chance for his crew, the moment is hollow and fleeting—the treasure shatters almost as soon as the wish is granted. The revelation is blunt and sobering: the God Eye was a fake, a cruel illusion that defies their expectations and trust. Yet even in disillusionment, the Gokaigers rally. They unleash a counterstrike against Los Dark, who summons Fake GokaiOh to wipe them out in retaliation. The battle escalates into a desperate stand, the crew pushing back with the power of their own unity, and Los Dark is overwhelmed in the end as Fake GokaiOh falls and the spectral ship collapses around them.

In the wake of the battle, the team shares a quiet moment of victory and reflection. Ikari returns to the group, his disappointment at the God Eye’s deception tempered by the camaraderie that carried them through the danger. The crew consoles him with a renewed appreciation for what truly matters: the bond they share and the adventures still ahead. As they raise their glasses in a hard-earned meal, the message settles in clear and steady—sometimes the greatest treasure isn’t a wish-granting relic, but the journey together and the friends who stand by you when the odds are toughest.
