The Dark Science Empire Deathdärk launches its scheme for world conquest from their Deathtopia Castle in Germany. Dr. Hideki Hongo, the founder of the Future Science Laboratory, is saved from one of their attacks by world-class explorer Kenichi Akama. Using his Computer Boys & Girls, Hongo recruits five people, including Kenichi, to form the Dai Sentai Goggle-V (Goggle 5), the only force capable of stopping Deathdärk.
The eponymous Goggle-V is a team that was recruited and formed by the Future Science Laboratory to combat the Dark Science Empire Deathdärk. Their battle phrase is "Fight! Dai Sentai Goggle-V!" (戦え！大戦隊ゴーグルファイブ！, Tatakae! Dai Sentai Gōguru Faibu!). Like Denziman, their surnames include their color.
