Tenkai Knight  

Tenkai Knights, テンカイナイト

In ancient times, a planet called Quarton existed. It was inhabited by beings known as Tenkai, who had the ability to transform into different shapes. Two factions emerged on this planet, the Corekai and the Corrupted, led by a ruthless warlord named Vilius. He sought control of the source of Tenkai Energy for his own purposes. The only ones strong enough to defeat him were the Tenkai Knights: Bravenwolf, Tributon, Valorn, and Lydendor. After being defeated, Vilius unleashed a powerful dragon known as the Tenkai Dragon, which was later defeated by the four knights. However, fragments of the dragon were scattered across the planet. In 2034 on Earth, four teenagers named Guren, Ceylan, Toxsa, and Chooki discovered an interdimensional portal to Quarton. They were chosen by the Guardians to become the new generation of Tenkai Knights and prevent Vilius from taking control of both worlds.
