Ep. 1: Whatever the current dinosaur badass! D squadron start!
The massive gorgosaurus, Gorgo, was the first dinosaur Ururu sent to the surface to fight humanity and the D-Force. However, Gorgo could not do this alone, as he had to take over the mind of man's best friend and turn them into humanity's worst nightmare. As the pack of dogs ran through the streets of Tokyo, the massive reptile joined the brutal assault! Bursting out of the ground, Gorgo stomped through the streets of Tokyo, roaring his fury and using his massive head as a battering ram to destroy buildings around him. Soon, his dogs found a school and Gorgo followed, stomping on the building with his massive feet. The D-Force soon arrived and started to fire missiles at the saurian to no avail. After trying to bring down the ship with his flame breath, the Tachibana twins combined, turning their ship into Super Aizenborg.

Ep. 2: Good and close call! Love
After Gorgo failed, Ururu demanded a warrior of the sky to be his next fighter. The monster who answered his call already slept in a cave on the surface of the world. As two cave spelunkers wandered into the cavern, Terano used his hypnotic eyes to take over the minds of a colony of bats living in the darkness. In no time, the bats reduced the humans to skeletons and the gigantic, winged reptile took to the sky with a swarm of red bats following closely behind! The pterosaur and bats attacked planes and helicopters until the D-Force was called, and Zen was sent to represent them in a meeting with the self-defense forces and Prime Ministers. It wasn't long before Terano lead his swarm into Tokyo, and luck would have it, he fired his flame breath at the building the meeting was taking place! Soon, after ramming his beak into the building, the Super Aizenborg was formed! A dog fight quickly ensued, but the vicious dinosaur’s wing membrane was cut by the ship’s rotary saw.

Ep. 3: Rat strategy of dinosaur Army! Fear!
The third saurian to be recruited by Ururu was the plated dinosaur Stella. The massive stegosaur burrowed his way under a power plant in the middle of Tokyo and waited. Workers, who came down to the sewers to inspect the damage from the recent ground tremors, found a massive hole in the wall, but could only find a tiny rat. But a strange sound filled the air, causing the rat to grow red in color and screech at the two men! What followed was a wave of rats, hungry for flesh! After the D-Force was called in, the rats flooded out into the streets, attacking humans and machinery alike. Not long after, the ground cracked open to reveal the culprit of the chaos. Stella instantly went to work charging through refineries, but the Super Aizenborg flew into attack mode, Using his heat beam, he tried to ground the flying warship, but the machine was too durable to be brought down by such a tactic.

Ep. 4: Deadly! Crampons cross cutter!
Mere days after Stella's attack, Ururu sent out his next monster, the styracosaur Chirako! Burrowing through the ground at high speeds, the horned dinosaur burst through the streets of Tokyo, roaring his arrival, only to be answered by the D-Force firing missiles at the armored monster. Shrugging off the assault, Chirako charged at the ground vehicle Aizen 1, which moved quickly out of the way, causing the enraged dinosaur to run head first into a building. When Ai and Zen went to combine into Super Aizenborg, they found a massive crater where the saurian once stood. It wasn't long before Chirako reappeared, bursting out of the ground near Tokyo Tower! With a well aimed blast, the dinosaur fired his heat beam at the tower's foundation, causing it to tip! The Super Aizenborg flew in, using itself to prop the building up for the civilians to escape, as Chirako once again disappeared underground. When the allosaur Arrow joined the attack, his fight with the D-Force was interrupted.

A series of earthquakes rocked the foundation of a hydroelectric dam, one after another, day and night, non-stop.

Late one afternoon, their hunch was proven correct! Ororo, a second massive gorgosaur, burst out of the ground and slowly made his way towards the dam! Using his hypnotic eye, he brainwashed a white cat named Neko, who was ordered to kill anyone who tried to interfere. Soon, the D-Force deployed Aizenborg 1 and 2, and the fight was on! Ororo shrugged off their laser and missile attacks, making the war seem futile. It wasn't until Ai and Zen combined and turned the Aizenborg 1 into the Super Aizenborg did Ororo pay them any attention.
