Shuriken Sentai Ninninger (手裏剣戦隊ニンニンジャー, Shuriken Sentai Ninninjā) is a Japanese tokusatsu series that serves as the 39th installment in the Super Sentai franchise and the 27th entry in the Heisei era.

Main characters

Ninningers

The eponymous Ninningers are five descendants of the Igasaki Clan (伊賀崎氏, Igasaki-shi), ninja and practitioners of the Shuriken Ninja Art (手裏剣忍法, Shuriken Ninpō) ninjutsu who battled Gengetsu Kibaoni during Japan's Sengoku Era, and the grandchildren of Yoshitaka Igasaki, who prepared them for Gengetsu's predestined return. They are soon joined by an American Yokai Hunter who seeks to become Yoshitaka's apprentice.

In combat, the Ninningers' arsenal revolves around their Nin Shuriken (忍シュリケン) and honing their Nintality (忍タリティ, Nintariti). The Igasaki Ninningers transform using a Transformation Nin Shuriken (変化忍シュリケン, Henge Nin Shuriken) in conjunction with the ninjatō-like Ninja Ichibantou (忍者一番刀, Ninja Ichibantō, Ninja Best Sword) sidearm, the latter of which can also be used to perform the Nin Fury Slash (忍烈斬, Nin Retsu Zan) finisher, perform either elemental ninjutsu via a Five-Style Nin Shuriken (五トン忍シュリケン, Goton Nin Shuriken) or unique ninjutsu via a Technique Nin Shuriken (技忍シュリケン, Waza Nin Shuriken), and summon their Otomonin. Additionally, they wield the Gamagama-Ju (ガマガマ銃, Gamagama Jū, Toad-Toad Gun) handgun, which also doubles as Yokai detection system, and the Fūma shuriken-like Karakuri Hengen (カラクリヘンゲン, Karakuri Change), which can switch between Sword (刀, Katana), Bow (弓, Yumi), and Claw (爪, Tsume) modes. After acquiring the Chozetsu Shobu Changer (超絶勝負チェンジャー, Chōzetsu Shōbu Chenjā, Transcendent Battle Changer) brace, the Ninningers can use it to assume an armored Chozetsu form and combine it with the Ninja Ichibantou to form the Ninja Ichiban Shobutou (忍者一番勝負刀, Ninja Ichiban Sōbutō).

Takaharu Igasaki

In the series, Takaharu Igasaki (伊賀崎 天晴, Igasaki Takaharu) is the leader of the Ninningers and an impulsive optimist who acts like a big brother to his teammates and serves as the red-colored Aka Ninger (アカニンジャー, Aka Ninjā). Out of the group, he is most adamant about being a ninja and wishes to become the type that his grandfather is. Following the Ninningers' final battle with Gengetsu Kibaoni, Takaharu opens a ninjutsu school and goes on to get married and have a son named Yoshiharu.

Using the Chozetsu Shobu Changer, Takaharu can transform into Aka Ninger Chozetsu (アカニンジャー超絶, Aka Ninjā Chōzetsu), gaining the ability to perform the Chozetsu Shuriken Slash (超絶シュリケン斬, Chōzetsu Shuriken Zan) finisher.[1]

Takaharu Igasaki is portrayed by Shunsuke Nishikawa (西川 俊介, Nishikawa Shunsuke). As a child, Takaharu is portrayed by Kento Kusumi (久住 健斗, Kusumi Kento).

Yakumo Kato

In the series, Yakumo "Cloud" Kato (加藤・クラウド・八雲, Katō "Kuraudo" Yakumo) is a cold yet quick-tempered realist who was originally in England to learn magic before he was called back to Japan despite displaying no desire to carry on Yoshitaka's legacy. Instead, Kato prefers to prove himself as the most skilled practitioner of the Shuriken Ninja Arts while serving as the blue-colored Ao Ninger (アオニンジャー, Ao Ninjā). Following the Ninningers' final battle with Gengetsu Kibaoni, Kato returns to England to finish magic school with a combination of magic and his ninja skills.

Using the Chozetsu Shobu Changer, Yakumo can transform into Ao Ninger Chozetsu (アオニンジャー超絶, Ao Ninjā Chōzetsu).[2]

During the events of the crossover film Kamen Rider × Super Sentai: Ultra Super Hero Taisen, the Game World version of Yakumo temporarily assumes the form of the blue-colored Aorider (アオライダー, Aoraidā), a hybrid of Aorenger and the Double Riders. In this form, he commands Kamen Rider Kiva's Castle Doran.

Yakumo "Cloud" Kato is portrayed by Gaku Matsumoto (松本 岳, Matsumoto Gaku).

Nagi Matsuo

Nagi Matsuo (松尾 凪, Matsuo Nagi) is a friendly and observant prankster, high schooler, and youngest member of the team with a desire to master various things who serves as the yellow-colored Ki Ninger (キニンジャー, Ki Ninjā). Following the Ninningers' final battle with Gengetsu Kibaoni, Matsuo studies with Fuka Igasaki to enter university.

Using the Chozetsu Shobu Changer, Nagi can transform into Ki Ninger Chozetsu (キニンジャー超絶, Ki Ninjā Chōzetsu).[3]

Nagi Matsuo is portrayed by Kaito Nakamura (中村 嘉惟人, Nakamura Kaito).

Fuka Igasaki

In the series, Fuka Igasaki (伊賀崎 風花, Igasaki Fūka) is Takaharu's reliable yet clumsy younger sister and high schooler who initially believes the Igasaki clan's history was a fairy tale before joining the Ninningers as the white-colored Shiro Ninger (シロニンジャー, Shiro Ninjā). Following the Ninningers' final battle with Gengetsu Kibaoni, Fuka studies with Nagi Matsuo to enter university while setting her sights on becoming an idol.[4]

In the series, Kasumi Momochi (百地 霞, Momochi Kasumi) is a reserved yet sharp tongued university student who aims to become a scientist despite being unable to take a hint and serves as the pink-colored Momo Ninger (モモニンジャー, Momo Ninjā). Following the Ninningers' final battle with Gengetsu Kibaoni, Momoichi travels to England with Yakumo Kato so she can continue researching her team's arsenal through scientific means.[5]

Kasumi Momochi is portrayed by Kasumi Yamaya (山谷 花純, Yamaya Kasumi).

Kinji Takigawa

In the series, Kinji Takigawa (キンジ・タキガワ) is a Yokai Hunter (妖怪ハンター, Yōkai Hantā) from the United States who was trained by his father Junji (ジュンジ) before the latter and Kinji's older brother Reiji (レイジ) were killed by the Western Yokai Okami-otoko. In his quest to become a legendary Yokai hunter, Kinji seeks out Yoshitaka to become his apprentice and followed him to Japan, where the former learns to speak in an old Japanese Edo dialect after watching jidaigeki and rakugo. While undergoing Yoshitaka's tests, Kinji goes on to form bonds with and join the Ninningers and assist them in their battles with Gengetsu Kibaoni. Following their final battle with him, Kinji inherits Yoshitaka's oden business and starts operating it in the United States.

Unlike the primary Ninningers, Kinji utilizes the Ninja Star Burger (忍者スターバーガー, Ninja Sutā Bāgā) cellphone, which has a Yokai alert system and can be used to summon his Otomonin, to transform into the gold-colored Star Ninger (スターニンジャー, Sutā Ninjā). He also wields the Star Sword Gun (スターソードガン, Sutā Sōdo Gan) electric guitar, which has a Sword Mode (剣モード, Ken Mōdo) for performing the Winning Rock Star (ウイニングロックスター, Uiningu Rokku Sutā) finisher and a Gun Mode (銃モード, Jū Mōdo) for performing the Lightning Rock Star (ライトニングロックスター, Raitoningu Rokku Sutā) finisher.

The Ninningers later create their secondary Otomonin themselves by giving them life with their own spirits. The Otomonin can also combine via Shuriken Combinations (シュリケン合体, Shuriken Gattai).[7]

Recurring characters

Kibaoni Army Corps

In the series, The Kibaoni Army Corps (牙鬼軍団, Kibaoni Gundan) is an army of Yokai based in the Kibaoni Castle (牙鬼城, Kibaoni-jō) that seeks to conquer the world through the "Power of Fear" (恐れの力, Osore no Chikara). After being revived as an oni in the 20th century, Gengetsu Kibaoni and his forces were sealed within forty-eight Sealing Shuriken (封印の手裏剣, Fūin no Shuriken) by the Ninningers' grandfather Yoshitaka Igasaki. After decades of waiting, Kyuemon Izayoi manages to break the seal and release the Kibaoni Army Corps in the present so he can restore their leader and resume their campaign with the power of the End Shuriken (終わりの手裏剣, Owari no Shuriken).

Gengetsu Kibaoni

In the series, Gengetsu Kibaoni (牙鬼 幻月, Kibaoni Gengetsu)[a] is the leader and namesake of the Kibaoni Army Corps who was originally a human feudal warlord during the Sengoku period who believed that fear was the best method to unite the war-torn Japan. After being killed by Igasaki clan ninjas, Gengetsu vowed to return in 444 years to resume his campaign. Centuries later, he sacrificed his humanity to return as an oni before he was sealed by Yoshitaka Igasaki. Nevertheless, due a miscalculation, Gengetsu returned once more in 2015 with Kyuemon Izayoi's help.

Initially lacking a physical form, Gengetsu tasks his retainers with gathering fear so he can reconstitute himself. Eventually succeeding after absorbing his wife Ariake no Kata's grief over losing their son Mangetsu before absorbing Ariake herself and Kyuemon, Gengetsu enlarges himself to face the Ninningers in a final battle, during which he is permanently killed by Gekiatsu DaiOh after Kyuemon breaks free of his body.[36][37]

In combat, Gengetsu wields the Gangataikaku (含牙戴角, Fang and Horn) naginata and can perform the Way of the Supreme Fang Hundred Demons Illusion (牙凌道・百鬼幻, Garyōdō Hyakkigen) and Way of the Supreme Fang Asura (牙凌道・阿修羅, Garyōdō Ashura) attacks.

Gengetsu Kibaoni is voiced by Mugihito (麦人).[38]

Kyuemon Izayoi

In the series, Shingetsu Kyuemon Kibaoni (牙鬼 久右衛門 新月, Kibaoni Kyūemon Shingetsu), also known as Kyuemon Izayoi (十六夜 九衛門, Izayoi Kyūemon),[b] is the son of Gengetsu Kibaoni and a concubine who was born 444 years prior to the series and Gengetsu sent to the present to facilitate his second revival. Growing up, Kyuemon became Yoshitaka's first apprentice, but became fearful of the "Last Ninja's" power when Yoshitaka refused to give him the End Shuriken and stole Tsumuji Igasaki's ninjutsu. Following this, Kyuemon's Yokai power emerged, transforming him into a kitsune-masked form with mastery of Yojutsu (妖術, Yōjutsu, Bewitching Art) spells and developed a hatred towards his former mentor.

In the present, Kyuemon orders the destruction of the Igasaki Ninjutsu Dojo to obtain a ceremonial mallet so he can free Gengetsu and serve as his page while searching for the End Shuriken, believing he has a right to it due to his connection to Yoshitaka, and corrupting the Sealing Shuriken used to seal Gengetsu for the Kibaoni Army Corps' benefit. Amidst his battles with the Ninningers, Kyuemon manipulates Raizo Gabi, forms an alliance with Kinji Takigawa, acts against Masakage Tsugomori and Ariake no Kata, and revives four of the Oniwaban Five as his servants to suit his needs.

During the Kibaoni Army Corps' final battle with the Ninningers, Kyuemon steals Yoshitaka's Nintality and the End Shuriken, using both to assume a more powerful form, but is confronted with the fact that he followed in Yoshitaka's footsteps in seeking the End Shuriken to bring his family back. Upon admitting this as the truth, Kyuemon acknowledges Yoshitaka as his mentor and receives his own Nin Shuriken, but is absorbed by Gengetsu. Kyuemon eventually frees himself, allowing the Ninningers to kill Gengetsu. After making peace with Yoshitaka, Kyuemon returns the End Shuriken to the Ninningers before dying while his Nin Shuriken is enshrined in his memory.

Two years later, during the events of the V-Cinema Come Back! Shuriken Sentai Ninninger: Ninnin Girls vs. Boys FINAL WARS, Sakurako Igasaki gives Kyuemon's Nin Shuriken to Luna Kokonoe so she can become Mido Ninger. The Ninningers later learn Kyuemon's spirit was contained within the Nin Shuriken and he had possessed Kokonoe so he can fight alongside them and redeem himself. After defeating the revived Ariake and Mangetsu and returning the mallet, Kyuemon's spirit is allowed to reincarnate.

In combat, Kyuemon wields a bottle gourd to gather fear from terrorized humans and use the mallet in conjunction with personally corrupted Sealing Shuriken, or Yo Shuriken (妖シュリケン, Yō Shuriken, Bewitching Shuriken), such as the following: the Five-Style Yo Shuriken (五トン妖シュリケン, Goton Yō Shuriken), which allows him to perform the Hypertrophic Fast Growth Technique (肥大蕃息の術, Hidaihansoku no Jutsu) to revive fallen Yokai as giants; the Yokai Fusing Technique (妖怪融合の術, Yōkai Yūgō no Jutsu), which allows him to turn humans into Yokai; the Shinobi Summoning Technique (忍び招へいの術, Shinobi Shōhei no Jutsu), which allows him to summon an Izayoi-Style Ninja and facilitated his revival of Gengetsu; the Release Absorbing Technique (遊離吸収の術, Yūri Kyūshū no Jutsu), which allows him to absorb an Igasaki clan ninja's Nintality; and the Gashadokuro Yo Shuriken (ガシャドクロ妖シュリケン, Gashadokuro Yō Shuriken), which allows him to summon Gashadokuro. Additionally, he can transform the mallet into a sword and perform the Way of the Supreme Fang Crescent Moon (牙凌道・弧月, Garyōdō Kogetsu) and the Way of the Supreme Fang Ultimate Secret Crescent Moon Dance (牙凌道究極奥義 弧月乱舞, Garyōdō Kyūkyoku Ōgi Kogetsu Ranbu) attacks.[39][40] Furthermore, he pilots a personal Otomonin called the Karakuri Kyubi (カラクリキュウビ, Karakuri Kyūbi), which is capable of using the four Oniwaban Five members' Core Gears, summon Kogitsune (子狐) drones, and perform the Kogitsune Dance (子狐乱舞, Kogitsune Ranbu) attack, before it is destroyed by Gekiatsu DaiOh.[41]

Kyuemon Izayoi is voiced by Megumi Han (潘 めぐみ, Han Megumi).[38] As a teenager, Kyuemon is portrayed by Ryusei Takeba (竹場 龍生, Takeba Ryūsei).

Raizo Gabi

In the series, Raizo Gabi (蛾眉 雷蔵, Gabi Raizō)[c] is the Goryō-themed spearhead of the Kibaoni Army Corps who bears the most hatred towards the Igasaki clan and craves fighting powerful enemies, to the point where he will kill allies if he believes they are interfering with his desire. Despite being partially revived by Kyuemon, Raizo refuses to aid him, believing that fighting the Ninningers will fully awaken him. As a result, the latter develops a rivalry with Takaharu Igasaki and reluctantly aids Kyuemon so he can have a proper battle with the ninja. After fighting Takaharu twice and losing to him during their second encounter, Raizo gracefully accepts defeat, but is forcibly enlarged and brainwashed into becoming a berserker by Kyuemon. Ultimately, Raizo is killed by King Shurikenzin and returns to the afterlife. Following Gengetsu's full revival, he revives Raizo a second time via a corrupted Sealing Shuriken, giving him a more powerful form. Raizo battles Takaharu and Yakumo Kato, who kills Raizo in combat.[42][43]

In combat, Raizo wields two katana and can perform the Way of the Supreme Fang Thunder Phantom Slash (牙凌道 雷幻斬り, Garyōdō Raigen Giri) attack.

In the series, Masakage Tsugomori (晦 正影, Tsugomori Masakage)[d] is Gengetsu's Koromodako-themed chief retainer and strategist who sees the destruction of the Igasaki clan as his top priority and comes off as playful, but is secretly dangerous and deceptive in combat. Additionally, he is a tiny Yokai piloting a mechanical replica of his original form. Following Raizo Gabi's death, Kyuemon revives Masakage to help him gather fear to revive Gengetsu. Despite knowing Kyuemon is not a true member of the Kibaoni Army Corps, Masakage allows him to stay so long as he does not betray Gengetsu. After Gengetsu is fully revived, Masakage becomes his second-in-command and personally battles the Ninningers until they discover his secret. Desperate, Masakage enlarges himself, but is killed by HaOh Gekiatsu DaiOh.[44][45]

In combat, Masakage wields a shakujō and various magical powers and can perform the Way of the Supreme Fang Skull (牙凌道 洒落頭, Garyōdō Sharekōbe) attack.

Masakage Tsugomori is voiced by Ryūsei Nakao (中尾 隆聖, Nakao Ryūsei).

Ariake no Kata

In the series, Ariake no Kata (有明の方)[e] is Gengetsu's impatient and vain Aonyōbō-themed wife who is always accompanied by two Hyakkarage bodyguards. In response to the Ninningers' growing power, Kyuemon reluctantly revives her, though she primarily yells at him and Masakage to fix things whenever events do not go right, uses gathered fear as a beauty treatment or to flavor shaved ice, focuses on pampering herself in preparation for her husband's revival, and dotes on her son Mangetsu despite his abuse. Upon learning of Mangetsu's death, her rage and grief creates excess fear energy, allowing Gengetsu to fully revive. Amidst the Kibaoni Army Corps' final battle with the Ninningers, she is mortally wounded by Star Ninger and Momo Ninger before Gengetsu absorbs his wife.[46][47]

Two years later, during the events of the V-Cinema Come Back! Shuriken Sentai Ninninger: Ninnin Girls vs. Boys FINAL WARS, Ariake revives herself to seek revenge on the Ninningers, only to be killed again by them.

After several battles with the Ninningers and enlarging himself, he is mortally wounded by HaOh Gekiatsu DaiOh. Before he dies, Kyuemon tells Mangetsu the truth of their familial relationship.[48][49]

Two years later, during the events of the V-Cinema Come Back! Shuriken Sentai Ninninger: Ninnin Girls vs. Boys FINAL WARS, Mangetsu is revived by Ariake, but is killed alongside her by the Ninningers.

In combat, Mangetsu wields a great sword, can perform the Way of the Supreme Fang Mangetsu Slash (牙凌道・萬月斬, Garyōdō Mangetsuzan) attack, and is able to withstand an attack from the Ninningers in their Chozetsu forms.

Decades prior, he gave his life to seal Gengetsu Kibaoni when the latter became an oni. However, Yoshitaka used the End Shuriken to keep himself alive so he could secretly build the Otomonin using alien technology in preparation for Gengetsu's return before revealing himself to his grandchildren in the present to give them their Otomonin Shuriken, claiming he had faked his death so he can guide them towards becoming true ninja. Additionally, he single-handedly builds a new Igasaki Ninjutsu Dojo (伊賀崎忍術道場, Igasaki Ninjutsu Dōjō) following the original one's destruction to serve as the Ninningers' headquarters. While training his grandchildren, he promises to eventually choose one of them to become his successor if they exceed his expectations, improve their Nintality, and fully master the Shuriken Ninja Arts. However, he later reveals they can only do so if one of them kills him and absorbs his Nintality. After they demonstrate their conviction for surpassing him, he acknowledges and joins forces with the Ninningers in their final battle against Gengetsu as his own version of Aka Ninger until Kyuemon Izayoi steals Yoshitaka's Nintality, forcing Yoshitaka to reveal the truth of what happened. Before he dies, Yoshitaka gives a purified Sealing Shuriken to Kyuemon, which transforms into his own Nin Shuriken.[91]
