Strange World Fuuma

Strange World Fuuma is the name of an evil organization in "Uchuu Keiji Shaider".

History

A religion based from the Strange Palace in the Strange World dimension revering Kubilai as its god which intends to conquer the universe through psychological attacks. Kubilai attempted to take over Earth 12,000 years ago, only to be stopped/beheaded by the Shaider of legend and be destroyed again today by the modern Shaider.

Membership

* Great Emperor Kubilai (Oraclon in the American dub version): The God of the Fuuma, A giant golden head with three red eyes embedded in the wall of the Fuuma Palace. Later revealed to have had a body once, having tentacled limbs with serpent-like heads on the ends. But he was separated from his body by the Shaider of legend when he cut his head off, 12,000 years ago, and sealed his body away. (Episode #47) Kubilai intended to find his body to become whole again; his resolve was increased as his body was finally released from its cave-prison. But Shaider managed to get the monster back into the cave and blow up all of its limbs, leaving only the torso (which now could speak and had a mind and eye of its own) to remain and to be destroyed by Shaider. (Episode #48) Shaider eventually broke into the fortress to save Annie, which he did. He also issued a challenge to fight Kubilai himself, one on one. As a result, Kubilai had a new robotic body made, with tentacles to give him mobility. Shaider managed to destroy this new body, making Kubilai resort to levitation for movement. Kubilai was soon killed by the "current" Shaider after the upgrade when Shaider shoved his sword in Kubilai's third eye; this was followed by the Shaider Blue Flash. Kubilai's last words were "Long live Fuuma!"

* Bishop Poe (Dispera in the American dub version): Kubilai's transvestite grandson in white who serves as advisor and strategist. He is attired in elegant white robes, and a horned, immensely large oval shaped headdress. As Highpriest, Poe presides over the Strange Beast birth and Strange Dimension Generation ceremonies. Drinking an elixir made somehow from young girls every 500 years, he lived 15,000 years. Unwilling to have anyone be more beautiful than he, his true face is mummified. He met his end at the end of the series (Episode #48) after Kubilai was destroyed. Since his grandfather was no longer alive to give him the energy he needed to stay young, he repented to Annie and Shaider before fading away into nothingness alongside the lower ranked Fuuma that were on the Palace. In battle, Poe could toss his scepter like a spear as well as blast Shaider with blue lasers from the scepter's core. Poe also seemed to possess teleportation and telekinetic abilities, that he demonstrated on Shaider, before Shaider broke free from his control.

* Commander Hessler (Doomaster in the American dub version): A field operative. Hesslar oversees the attacks on Earth. He is a proud, yet easily irritated warrior who often gets into arguments with his younger brother; Himley, who once tried to take his position. Hessler met his end, at the end of the series (Episode #45), when he was destroyed by Shaider in battle.

* Himley (28): Hessler's brother. He is dressed in an armor that seems to be spider-themed and wields two swords, and a trident, in battle. He and Hessler went into battle against Shaider together. Himley could blast lasers from the spider's eyes embedded in his head gear and seemed to be a great fencer. Himley could also blast webbing-shaped lightning bolts, in battle. Destroyed by a fatal sneak attack inflicted by Hessler, after he had betrayed Hessler by trying to usurp his position. Kubilai promised to give Himley Hessler's job and position if he destroyed Shaider. After the offer, Himley eagerly agreed and looked forward to taking Hessler's place. Hessler and the Girls Army retreated after Himley fell over and exploded.

* Girl's Army (Vixens in the American dub version): A team of five breath-taking and deadly, kunoichi trained in the most vicious and dangerous arts of combat. They had no individual names, but the production notes listed them as: Girl 1 (black), Girl 2 (purple), Girl 3 (red), Girl 4 (green), and Girl 5 (pink). They are commanded by Hessler. In Episode #44, Fuuma gave an upgrade for Girl 1 (in full armor). First Girl 1 was destroyed (Episode #44) and then Girl 3 followed (Episode #45). At the end of the series, Kubilai ate the three remaining girls to give him energy to battle Shaider.

* Skugs: Grunts with big round eyes and fanged mouths. They act either as foot soldiers or as pilots for the carriage-shaped aircraft. Destroyed at the end of the series when the fortress crumbled apart and exploded. Shaider occasionally kicks their butts before going on to fighting the Strange Beast.

Fuuma Monsters

Psychedelic, deceptively comical-looking creatures that Kubilai "gives birth" to using a special ceremony with the help of Poe. Their naming system is two syllables, then those two syllable repeated.

* Fuuma Tiki (1): A green and red monster with a fanged tiki-like face. It had the ability to roll up into a ball. In the Fuuma's dimension, BariBari briefly became giant and invisible with the exception of its boots and tried to stomp Shaider flat.

* Fuuma Canine (2): A hideous brown-furred and green colored canine monster. PetoPeto disguised itself as a hippie dwarf and carried around with him a trumpet. Taking a small group of low level Fuuma incognito as a carnival band, they paraded around town while PetoPeto shot out small particles from its mouth, which caused animals to go insane.

* Fuuma Plant (3): A green plant monster with spikes and a venus flytrap type mouth protruding from the top of its head. Kubilai created it after he was inspired by Poe's deadly plant. Like the plant, Girugiru could spray corrosive pollen, which he demonstrated by using the flytrap on his head. Girugiru and some other lower level Fuuma were disguised as the "surviving members" of Annie's family from her home planet. Shaider was able to see through their disguises and helped Annie to do the same. Once Annie discovered who they truly were, Shaider went after Girugiru and destroyed him with his finishing attack.

* Fuuma Warlock (4): A purple warlock-like Fuuma. MeroMero disguised itself as a witch to lure and kidnap children, who were then subjected to Fuuma experimentation. The Fuuma's plan was to turn children into hideous animal-human hybrids. Dai was on his way to save the children but had to get through MeroMero first. After destroying the machines used by the Fuuma for their surgeries, the children were changed back to normal. But MeroMero was still at large; when the fight was taken into another dimension, MeroMero gained the ability to disappear and use its cape to attack Shaider. MeroMero could also strike Shaider with its skull-headed staff from practically out of nowhere.

* Fuuma Worm (5): An over-sized silkworm beast with a goofy looking face on its belly. From the top of its head, Mujimuji shoots strong silky webbing to either restrain a victim or trap them in cocoons. The Girl's Army was going around spreading rumors about MujiMuji being some sort of an enlightened entity. People who bought into the sales pitch were taken to a castle to meet MujiMuji, but soon learned is was all a trap. The victims were released in a zombie-like state, and eventually evolved into a cocoon metamorphosis. Dai's friend Yohko was one of the victims as well. Dai and Annie went undercover to find the so called enlightened one, but Annie herself was kidnapped and only inches away from becoming a chrysalis. Eventually destroyed by Shaider in battle.

* Fuuma Food (6): This monster was completely made of food and had a bowl-like hat! It was armed with a giant salad fork and butter knife. A young boy was being horribly bullied, so the Girls Army leader invited the depressed child to a restaurant where GokuGoku served up entries and beverages created from its own body. The food gave the boy special telekinetic powers that he used to get even with those people who wronged him: bullies, his coach, and his family. Dai saw the boy's powers in action and had to put a stop to it. Soon, more bullied kids were fed the tainted food and took revenge on their tormentors. Once GokuGoku was destroyed, the spell was broken on the bullied kids.

* Fuuma Frog (7): Dai and Annie received news about a scientist who was on verge of combining the DNA of a frog with roses. The possibility of frog/rose monsters would catch the Fuuma's attention, so Dai and Annie went to protect the scientist. However, the Girl's Army got to him first, but could not find his research. They left empty handed, but not before threatening to harm his family. Dai met up with the scientist and Annie offered to act as a bodyguard. But the Girls Army outsmarted Annie and distracted her. For good measure, Kubilai created a frog/rose-inspired monster of his own. Barabara carried a thorned staff and used the petals around its neck to bind Annie. The Fuuma found the data they wanted, but Shaider saved the day and killed Barabara by impaling the monster with its own weapon, followed by Shaider's finisher.

* Fuuma Reptile (8): A green reptilian monster; sprouting from the top of its head was an upper torso of a mantis-like entity. Hessler and his army made an attempt to kidnap a teenage girl named Yukari, but Annie received a strange telepathic message crying for help and came to the girl's aide. After Dai and Annie returned Yukari to her parents, Annie asked about the telepathy, but the father was quick to boot them out. The Fuuma tried to kidnap Yukari again, and once again Shaider intervened. When they returned Yukari to her parents again, they wanted some answers as to why would the Fuuma would want this girl. Her parents revealed that Yukari wasn't an ordinary teen. They found her in a space pod when she was a baby. Dai examined the pod to find a video playback. The video revealed that Yukari was a princess of a planet that was overrun by Kubilai. Her birth parents sent her to earth for safety and when she was of age, Yukari was to return to her home to revive it. But she couldn't accept any of this and attempted to run away. Kerokero and the Girl's Army made their move again but this was their last. Shaider defeated the kunoichi, Hessler, and the Fuuma aircraft. Before killing Kerokero, Shaider severed the second body at its head. In the end, Yukari fulfilled her destiny and returned home.

* Fuuma Bongo (9): A mutant beast with bongos on its chest with the ability to manipulate music. A boy band’s latest song was a big hit and everyone was getting into the groove. Then a sudden obsession with the new song seemed too excessive for Dai’s comfort as kids listened to the song almost on a 24/7 basis and were getting distracted in school. He attended the latest concert and took a recording sample of the music. Annie analyzed the music and found Fuuma activity at work. Dai went to investigate the band, but found them kneeling before an astral projection of Poe. After Poe warned Dai not to interfere, he heard the sound of the bongos that belonged to TamTam. Later, angry parents were upset as to how the song was becoming a nuisance in their kids’ lives and began destroying the cassettes. Stores also discontinued selling the album fearing that it was harmful to kids. Obsessed fans went to see their favorite band in concert, but it was part of the Fuuma’s plan to trap them. Dai and Annie crashed the concert and revealed the band as TamTam and some Fuuma monsters. Using his drill vehicle, Shaider saved the captive fans, as well as the real band. TamTam’s other abilities included teleporting itself by beating its chest. While batting it in another dimension, Shaider also fought off mutant guitarists in gas masks and almost got crushed by a giant mallet drumstick that swung like a pendulum. Shaider defeated TamTam and the real band played their music for their fans.

* Fuuma Professor (10): This college professor-themed monster had a giant quill for a weapon, a large hardback book embedded in its chest and wore a teacher’s cap with a black graduation gown. While driving one night, Dai almost ran into some kids on bikes. Before hitting them, they flew right over his head! Dai followed them home and asked their parents about the bikes as well as about the kids. The kids did not recall being out as Dai claimed. Later that evening, stuffed animals were floating, the kids were dancing in a trance and a gateway to another dimension opened up with Pasupasu on the other side. The following day, Dai found the kids playing around with his jeep and actually tried to drive it. After apologizing to Dai, he sent them off but was attacked by Pasupasu and Miraclers. The fight ended quickly as Annie came in to save him. Dai went back to the kids’ home to talk to the parents about the Fuuma. Angry, they turned him away, forcing Dai to sneak in the house to set up spy cameras. Then thing got weird as the parents witnessed the flying stuffed animals, the kids acting unusual, and the sight of Pasupasu. Disguising themselves as giant stuffed animals, Dai and Annie waited in the kids’ room for Pasupasu to strike. After gaining access to Pasupasu’s universe, Shaider made his move. After chasing the monster, Shaider killed it with his final attack.

When struck by Annie on the back of its head, it seemed to go insane, attacking Hessler and the Miraclers.

higi Jiku / Strange Dimension

The Strange Dimension is an alternate universe with various traps and other dimensions. Some of the traps used in this realm are designed to match the monster's theme. Also seen are grunts and minions that assist the monster against Shiader. The temperature in this dimension reaches about 6,000 degrees Celsius. The primary purpose of this dimension is to enhance Fuuma's Strange monster's powers and abilities for about 4 times, giving it the upper hand against Shaider. When Kubilai calls for the Strange dimension, Poe will summon it to draw the beast inside, thereby luring Shaider to follow it into Fuuma territory. A constant threat Shaider faces while inside this dimension is a Fuuma gunship; for this reason, he calls on his battle fortress Vavilos, using either its giant blaster or robot form to destroy the gunship.

Despite an upgrade in its fighting strength, a Strange Beast can still be destroyed by Shaider while inside the Strange Realm. This, in turn, will dissolve the warp until the next time it is summoned again. Time Space Warp is the Philippine dubbed version of Strange Dimension. Shinkan Poe's (Babaylan Ida) phrase in Philippine dubbed is "Time Space Warp, Ngayon Din!" (Strange Dimension, Now!)
