## History

### Pre-Hyper Hero: 30 Years After & Beyond

Taiga first appears with Lisa in the Neo SSSS Glider in Africa watching Amoebeus rise out of the Earth. With their ship only being a rescue vehicle they used what they had readily and drove Amoebeus away from a village with smoke flares. Amoebeus retreated for unknown reasons but the two could not follow him as they were called back to base. An meteorite had crashed on Earth and was determined to be hollow. Neo SSSS was called to handle the examination along with a scientific expert. Eventually the meteorite was revealed to house Flō's time capsule returning to Earth thirty million years after it launched to the predicted time when great disaster would befall its people again. Everyone was surprised by the hologram and its prophecies of Amoebeus, Goldzer and the need for them to revive the gunslinger Typhoon. However, Taiga was initially the only one willing to believe in a Sacred-Ancient Civilization but after carbon dating showed the time capsule was genuine and Goldzer's revival on Hawaii, Neo SSSS was forced to take his words seriously.

Following the hologram's words and Flō's genius, they found the Tower of Light in the region formerly known as the land of Typhoon. Taiga was drawn to the statues within, as he heard voices in his head. Instinctively knowing how to get in, he walked through the walls to find the statue of Typhoon and two others of his fellow Triggers, most likely comrades in arms. Despite his teammates' warning Taiga touched the statue, somehow calling to the Sacred-Ancient DNA inside him. Taiga heard screams of people dying genetic memories of the ancient cataclysm surged up with in him.

Taiga and the others had no time to figure out how to revive Typhoon however as both monsters were drawn to the resting site of the ancient protectors. In the advent of Amoebeus's and Goldzer's attack on the statues, Taiga fought bravely but his Neo SSSS Glider was shot down. About to crash, Taiga was turned into light after which he was absorbed into the only remaining statue, becoming Typhoon for the first time. With Typhoon now awakened, he defeated Goldzer and forced Amoebeus to retreat.
