Despite this, they have had encounters with the Human brothers Junichiro and Junjiro Iwaki on multiple occasions.

Go! Greenman

Greenman vs. Flasher

In Go! Greenman a Flasher Red Eye was created by Tonchiki to collect child blood for Maoh. However, since the two shows are unrelated story-wise this Flasher Red Eye was simply referred to as "Flasher". It was soon deployed and began tormenting children only to be stopped by the hero Greenman. They brutally combated each other for a short time before the Flasher teleported to a safe area and created a blue-eyed clone of himself. Greenman struggled to keep up with the fast-paced creatures and was quickly overpowered. Luckily, the red Flasher had wandered off to assist Tonchiki who clumsily activated the Green Call. With a boost of strength, Greenman eventually did away with the blue clone and finished off the remaining Flasher with his signature Breaster missiles.

Abilities

  • The Red Flasher can create the Blue Flasher.
  • The Blue Flasher has teleportation abilities.
