Reconstructive Experiment Empire Mess
The Reconstructive Experiment Empire Mess (改造実験帝国メス, Kaizō Jikken Teikoku Mesu) is a space-traveling alien empire that takes over planets, using their lifeforms as raw materials in its experiments. Their goal is to transform its leader Lah Deus into the strongest being in the universe through repeated bio-augmentation. The Reconstructive Experiment Empire Mess' base of operations is the UFO-like spaceship called Labo.
Great Emperor Lah Deus (大帝ラー・デウス, Taitei Rā Deusu; 1–49): The leader of the Reconstructive Experiment Empire Mess who sought to become the ultimate life form. To fulfill that end, he recruited several Great Doctor's over the Eons, some he abducted like Doctor Köpflen. As a result, he has undergone several reconstructive operations in those years. He could fire energy shots from his fingers to punish his officers. Before the finale, after Kauler and Gardan dismantled Lah Deus, Lah Deus was transformed by Köpflen into the Deus Beast Warrior The Deusura (ザ・デウスーラ, Za Deusūra). After being destroyed by the Flashmen, his broken mask was taken by Köpflen to extract its DNA and fuse it with Kragen for his final creation The Demoss (ザ・デーモス, Za Dēmosu). A big immobile character, The Demoss is actually portrayed by a kaiju-sized puppet-like mannequin. THe Demoss was put down by Great Titan
Great Doctor Lie Köpflen (大博士リー・ケフレン, Dai Hakase Rī Kefuren): The right-hand man of Deus and creator of the empire's Beast Warriors by using a keyboard-like device called DNA Synthesizer. The centuries gave Köpflen a god complex as he turned his back on Lah Deus to become the ruler of Mess. Köpflen does not know that he is actually an Earthling just like the Flashmen and was abducted 300 years ago as a baby by Deus, who later trained him in genetics. In the final episode, he offers the Flashmen a chance to operate on them to repair their Anti-Flash Phenomenon in exchange for his life in the finale. After their refusal and the destruction of the DNA Synthesizer, Köpflen dies in Labo's explosion.
Leh Wanda (レー・ワンダ, Rē Wanda; 1–47): A bat-winged, zebra-striped swordsman full of pride and overconfidence. He believes himself to be superior but is disgusted once he learns from Köpflen that he was a composite being created from five grotesque and ordinary creatures making him similar to a Chimera. Later powered up as the monster Wandarla (ワンダーラ, Wandāra), in which he possessed the power to stop time for exactly 3 seconds. By combining his powers with a Beast Warrior, he could stop time in an area for an indefinite amount of time. He challenged Red Flash to a final duel to prove his strength after losing his power and was eventually destroyed.
Leh Näfel (レー・ネフェル, Rē Neferu): A cunning and cruel leopard-like loyal soldier, Näfel was among the first creations of Köpflen and in the final episode calls him "father". She had a talent for disguise and often caught members of Flashman off guard this way to attack them. She was later powered up to be able to transform into the cat/leopard monster Näfelura (ナフェルラ, Naferura). She was stabbed to death by Red Flash while protecting Köpflen in the finale.
Leh Gals (レー・ガルス, Rē Garusu; 1–28): A big and strong commander made up of genes of wild beasts making him similar to a Chimera like Leh Wanda. This monster does not talk, but roars a lot while fighting the Flashmen. He receives a power-up in Episode 28, but is destroyed by the Flash King.
Wolk (ウルク, Uruku; 1–45) and Kilt (キルト, Kiruto; 1–45): The assistants of Näfel which are derived from a wolf and a cat. In Episode 45, Kilt was transformed by Keflen into the Deus Beast Warrior The Kiltos (ザ・キルトス, Za Kirutosu) and was nearly killed by the Flashmen. To save her, Wolk decided to let herself be absorbed by her partner. However, their unified form was ultimately destroyed by the Great Titan.
Alien Hunters (エイリアンハンター, Eirian Hantā): They are a gang of bounty hunters who worked most for Mess in rounding up lifeforms for them to experiment on.
Sir Kauler (サー・カウラー, Sā Kaurā): The leader of the Alien Hunters, He was the one who kidnapped the five infants who grew up into the Flashmen. He rebels once Mess keeps considering him an outsider, despite the success he has brought them. Red Flash severely wounded him in a fatal exchange of blows in Episode 48. After letting Sara discover the truth about her parents, Kauler decides to perform a kamikaze attack on Labo to kill Köpflen, but fails and ultimately dies in his UFO's explosion.
Boh Gardan (ボー・ガルダン, Bō Garudan): The assistant leader of the Alien Hunters. He dual wields a pair of steel sticks. He was involuntarily mutated by Köpflen into the Deus Beast Warrior The Gardess (ザ・ガルデス, Za Garudesu).
Kerao (ケラオ): An Alien Hunter who wields a laser gun. He was eaten alive by the monster The Gitan.
Baura (バウラ): An Alien Hunter who wields a huge scythe.
Hag (ハグ, Hagu): Wielding a bow and arrow, she was the sole female Alien Hunter. She was able to emit damaging beams from her eyes.
Hou (ホウ, Hō): An Alien Hunter dual wields a pair of boomerangs. He was also able to grapple opponents and electrocute them.
Zolohs (ゾロー, Zorō): The mass-produced foot soldiers of Mess are green-eyed, red-carapaced insectoid ants. They sprayed acidic strings from their mouths, which caused victims to disappear.
Kragen (クラーゲン, Kurāgen): A giant monster created from jellyfish DNA that enlarges the Beast Warriors by energy transfer, shrinking itself in the process. Its name comes from the Japanese word for jellyfish – kurage (海月). Kragen was later used with what's left of Desura's DNA to form The Demoss.
The Beast Warriors (獣戦士, Jūsenshi) are Chimera-based monsters that are created by Great Doctor Lie Köpflen through his DNA synthesizer.
