Princess Iyarl/Miyo- known as Rio in the Philippines, Takeru's girl without knowing that she is the twin sister of Prince Igam from the Tube Empire.
Ryo Asuka aka X1 Mask- Former Maskman who refused to continue his duty after his love one was killed by the Tube.

Emperor Zeba- The leader of the Underground Tube Empire, on the later story it was revealed the he is also the 2nd Lethal Doggler.
Prince Igam- Leader of the Igam Clan, On episode 45 she will be revealed as a woman, she will become a nun on the last episode.
Fumin- From a Fu clan, a group of Ninja who serves the Igam clan.
Baraba- A rival of Igam from Baluga tribe, he carries the Royal Underground Sword.
Oyobu- He serves under Baraba, a ninja from Buyon with red skin and pointy ears.
Anagmas- Zeba's advisor, he uses croquet mallet as his weapon.
Okerampa- It enlarges the dogglers after Maskman defeated them with either Shot Bomber or Jet Cannon.
Knight Thief Kiros- Rival of Takeru in Miyo's heart, known fo his crescent screw attack as he learned it when he survived from the wind of hell.
Each of the members has a Masking brace, Maskman's transformation device. They use to say Aura Mask when they Transform. Shot bomber is their finishing cannon which was destroyed by Kiros using his crescent screw. They replaced it with Jet Cannon, with Red Mask at the back using his Aura for the attack.
After Okerampa enlarged the Dogglers, Red Mask called the turbo ranger which they use to fight the enlarged doggler. Before, Turbo Ranger has only Great Five Robot within, until one time the Great Five Robot was sink underground and the group need to replace it. Then they found the Land Galaxy which transforms into Galaxy Robot.
I'm just wondering what happened to them after 20 years. Ive heard that Takeru is already married with a Filipina (I think she is one of the Batang 80's and 90's hehe). Kenta is a Politician and Akira is a martial arts instructor.
Well wherever they are I'm just very thankful because they become part of my childhood life. Actually when I was a kid, my dream is to become one of them, to become a Maskman hahaha. Well we can be super heroes in our own way. Fight for love and peace as what Maskman did.
