Hiromu's Super Power manifests in his legs as super speed, enabling him to move so fast it appears as if he is teleporting. His Weak Point involves him freezing whenever he panics. This would not be a problem if he did not panic every time he sees a chicken, real or illustrated. This stems from a childhood trauma involving Hiromu being trapped in a chicken coup as a kid. Though he freezes whenever seeing a chicken, he can shrug it off in some cases due to willpower. Hearing the word "chicken" can make him freeze too, but not always completely, making his movement stiff and robotic for several minutes.

As Red Buster Powered Custom, wearing the Protector armor created from Nick's data, Hiromu's speed increases and he can perform the Volcanick Attack to finish off an opponent. Thirteen years ago, Hiromu's father was in charge of the Transport Research Center and his mother was a researcher. Both sacrificed themselves to trap Messiah in subspace with Hiromu entrusted to take care of his sister Rika, who refused to allow her only family to be taken from her by the Energy Management Center.
However, with his Buddyloid Cheeda Nick training him and the promised he made to Yoko to get their families back, Hiromu resolved to become a Go-Buster to ensure nobody would again lose loved ones to the Vaglass like him and his sister. At first, putting the mission as top priority, Hiromu refuses to go see Rika despite Nick's efforts in mending their relationship. When Nick brings Rika to a battle scene to allow Rika herself to see what her brother fights for, Hiromu berates Nick for bringing a civilian to such a dangerous place despite Nick's good intentions, showing how much he cares in getting the job done.
His relationship is eventually mended with Rika fully accepting Hiromu's decision to fight as a Go-Buster, though it is all thanks to Nick's efforts and Hiromu having next to no part in the events. Later, learning of his parents' fate as absorbed extensions of Messiah, a saddened Hiromu sees that stopping the monster is the only way he could save them. The encounter escalated their on-going feud as Enter developed an obsession with the human spirit, using Hiromu as the subject of his twisted research. Events transpired leading to Hiromu's Weak Point being exposed.
However, with the assistance of his teammates, he devises a method to counter its crippling effect. But this too was a means to study the human resolve, as it was revealed that Enter installed the previously, unrecovered Messiah Card 13 inside his body; effectively becoming Enter's back-up. As a side effect, the card also protects Hiromu from fatal hazards, including the ones he intends to inflict on himself. After the Go-Busters send their own bodies with Enter into the unstable subspace, Masato intends to put Hiromu in his own stasis chamber to remove Messiah Card 13, saving Hiromu but at the cost of Masato's life. After destroying Megazord Omega, the Go-Busters finally destroy Enter once and for all. With his mission a success, Hiromu lives peacefully with Nick and Rika.
History
Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger vs Uchuu Keiji Gavan : The Movie
A program in his body grants him superhuman abilities. However, his sister Rika refuses to allow him join the Go-Busters training program, which is organized and run by the Energy Management Center. Despite her refusals, Hiromu had already decided he would eventually join when the time comes that they truly need him. Thus Hiromu, though irregularly, undertakes some simulations and training in order to prepare for the eventual threat. His training sessions were done unbeknownst to his sister. In one of their pre-Vaglass outings, they take on their predecessors' nemesis, Basco ta Jolokia. However, they take him on stealthily before heading back home (to the Energy Management Center) and without the Gokaigers' knowledge.

Hand-Offs
Red Buster rides up to Gokai Red on his motorcycle. After getting off, Gokai Red throws a punch which Red Buster stops, (The punch being the continuing responsibility). Gokai Red leaves shortly after. Red Buster quickly turns in the direction Gokai Red headed towards and bows out of respect. This is the first Hand-Off to involve another character, as Red Buster's motorcycle is Cheeda Nick. However, this is minor, as Nick does nothing more than be a normal motorcycle.
