Nathan Rivera is the Bue Ranger and second in command of the Power Rangers: Samurai Strike. As the Blue Ranger he pilots the Dragon Folding Zord and controls the element of Water.
==Character History.==
Nathan Rivera, though a loner, is completely dedicated to his role as Shin's second command and being a Samurai Ranger even scheduling out his day with intense training. Should he make a mistake in front of his lord, Nathan will discipline himself severely. Proving he had great knowledge of the Origami even before learning how to properly use them (including creating a combination prior to learning the proper formation of the Samurai Megazord from Shin), Nathan became the engineer behind many of the Samurai Combinations, figuring out how to combine the Disk Zords into the Samurai Battlewing and later into the Samurai Battlewing Megazord as well as the Ultra Samurai Megazord. Out of all of the Rangers, he is most at odds with Ashton who he once called unworthy to be a Samurai as well as Joey in the earlier episode once telling him he should quit will the fight is still easy. Nathan is probably the closest in terms of skill to Shin, arguably equal to him sometimes. As such, Nathan is typically the one to lead the other Rangers in Shin's absence. This, combined with Nathan's skill, allows both of them to work well in tandem. His swordsmanship skill is at least equal to Shin's.
Like the other Rangers, Nathan also gave up his dream of becoming an olympic swimmer so he could fullfil his duty as Samurai Blue. He first tells this to Kimico in "Deals Off". Later in "Nathan's Choice", Nathan ponders over how life would have been if he was still training to achieve his long lived dream.
Nathan is later put in charge of unlocking the Ultra Samurai Megazord, but when a monster eats his Samuraizer, he tries not to go and start swimming. The others manage to get his Samuraizer back and empower him to return back to the team.
