Sauna Grumer (サウナグルマー Sauna Gurumā) is a Sauna-themed Kurumaju from the Great Space Invasion Running Team Hashiriyan.
History
First Attack
At Eiyu Sauna, Itasha has decided to use the coal furnace in the sauna room for her next Kurumaju as Decotrade fans the flames to make the furnace hot enough for them. Yaiyai Yarucar thinks it is a great idea to use the furnace, as the unbearable heat will make lots of humans scream. Once done fanning the flames, Decotrade sits down, fanning himself and gives Itasha the go ahead to put in the Ignition Key. She burns her fingers on the first two tries, but manages to insert the key into the furnace and change it into the Sauna Grumer. Decotrade then orders their new monster to turn the Earth into a hot steamy sauna to produce screams, with Sauna Grumer all too happy to get started.
At the city, Sauna Grumer asks some Nejiretta to pour hot water over his head and that heats him up to create a wave of high humidity that makes people extremely hot and uncomfortable. The heat eventually gets too unbearable and the people try taking off layers of clothing to get relief but it is no use and they start screaming, which Sauna Grumer uses to fill himself with Ghassolin.
Sauna Grumer increases his heat, creating a larger amount of Ghassolin, which he is about to absorb until Taiya and the others arrive while Officer Akuse goes to check on the civilians. The three transform and do their roll call, which Jou thinks is so cool while Genba leaves knowing everything is under control now. Upon seeing the heroes, the civilians calm down and cheer on the Boonboomgers, which causes the large miasma of Ghassolin to dissolve. Sauna Grumer is upset about this as Jou uses the opportunity to help evacuate the civilians from the area. The Sanseater Trio are confused and upset by what just happened as the Boonboomgers prepare for battle.
The Nejiretta aid Sauna Grumer in battle, trying to use sauna bath towels to attack the Rangers. Taiya let them wrap the towels around his Boonboom Handle and then puts it on the ground and suspends himself in the air, using his boot wheels to mow down the grunts surrounding him. He then engages Sauna Grumer, shielding himself from an oncoming kick with the tires on his back and clashing his Boonboom Handle against Sauna Grumer’s Hisha Crusher. Ishiro swings around a single Nejiretta as cover while he shoots and Mira is placed in an awkward jump rope scenario with the Nejiretta, which she puts a stop to by shooting the grunts holding the connected towels. She then kicks one of the Nejiretta with her left foot and activates her boot wheel to propel it backward while she does a backflip and leans herself backwards to blast one behind her with the Boonboom Handle wheel’s high powered sonic horn.
Jou is impressed by the Rangers, saying that they are being real heroes. Sauna Grumer and Taiya briefly engage in a towel fight before the former is kicked away and tries blasting them all with his heat. This makes the Boonboomgers feel weaker and uncomfortable in their suits, but Taiya goads Sauna Grumer by saying that the steam wasn’t hot enough. Sauna Grumer uses the Hisha Crusher to create energy projectile duplicates of his weapon to throw at the Rangers, which Taiya deflects and one lands in a nearby fountain. This sends a relieving splash of cold water raining down on the Boonboomgers, which enhances their power from the relaxing hot-cold bath.
The team does their own signature attacks: the Boonboom Driver Drive, the Boonboom Shoot Drive and the Boonboom Twist Drive to weaken Sauna Grumer, who gets sent flying around the Earth, slashed, shot at, and then manipulated and blown up with a sonic activated mine on his body. The team then ends the fight with the Bakuage Finish: Bakuage Handling Drive (sword version).
After defeating Yaiyai Yarucar in the race course, Sauna Grumer is revived and the team forms Boonboomger Robo, with the former powering himself up with hot water to increase his heat. Sauna Grumer then fans hot steam and burning coal ash with a towel to burn Bun Bun. Ishiro, who visits saunas three times a week, says the monster is a disgrace to what saunas are used for and has an idea on how to counter the Kuramaju. Taiya orders Mira to take away the hishaku and towel from Sauna Grumer, which she does by detaching the Boonboom Wagon from Boonboomger Robo and snatching the items with her vehicle’s claw, then docks back on again with Bun Bun. Taiya then asks Bun Bun to unscrew the armor off Sauna Grumer, who not only is now embarrassed to be naked, but is freezing cold from the spring air and cannot generate heat. The team then destroys Sauna Grumer with the Boonboom Finish.
