Samurai Sentai Shinkenger	comment	This page contains unmarked spoilers. You Have Been Warned!Samurai Sentai Shinkengernote "Shinken" translates in English as "True Sword" and refers to a sword used in battle rather than training is the 33rd program in the Super Sentai series, airing from 2009 to 2010. The Title Theme Tune was once again performed by Psychic Lover.Since ancient times, the Shiba Clan have been fighting against the monstrous hordes of the Gedoushunote "Heretic Party": the demons that emerge from crevices to attack humans. When the 18th head of the Shiba Clan, Takeru Shiba, learns that the leader of the Gedoushu is close to regaining his full power, he is reluctantly forced to summon four others from his retainer families as back-up and form the Shinkenger.Together, they protect the world from the Gedoushu using the power of "Mojikara"note "Character Power"; as in "letters" or in this case, "Kanji", an ancient magic based upon the drawing of certain characters. They are later joined by Genta Umemori, mediocre sushi chef, Mojikara prodigy and childhood friend of Takeru who had been secretly training himself as the sixth Shinkenger.As for the Super Sentai tradition of themes and motifs, Shinkenger picks up the Japanese Jidaigekinote Period dramas genre, drops it into a modern setting, and showed just how well awesome the concept can work, all the while keeping the theatricality intact. Also one to proudly take the stage is the Japanese culture: the Shinkengers live in the Shiba household, which is a feudal lord's mansion in present day, the monsters of the week are based on different Obake, and the Kanji used for fighting evil spirits just about anything, just for starters.note Please understand that all translations are by no means the ONLY way to translate the words in question, and if your sources of choice (Fansub or dictionaries) varies, it is likely not wrong - it us just chosen another wording. Please offer any alternate translations on the discussion pageThis work has Crowning Moment pages for Awesome, Funny and Heartwarming. We're also working on a Character Sheet, and migrating character tropes over there. It was adapted in America as Power Rangers Samurai.Aired alongside the Kamen Rider series Kamen Rider Decade, which it shared a crossover with, and then Kamen Rider Double in the Super Hero Time block.

The same with Mako's mother and Ryunosuke's father. Mako's mother was left paralyzed after the previous battle with Dokoku, and if Ryunosuke's father was the previous Shinken Blue, then he took 3 flaming arrows to the chest in the final battle.

In Act 36, Genta treats Kotoha's uncharacteristic request for curry rice as a challenge to be accepted - and does it so well that he gains a thriving new clientele.

After revealing more or less of the others' backgrounds, it'd be interesting to see her interaction with her sister. It seems she finally got it in Act 41.

DaiKaiOh North: "Kitakitakitakita!!" Remember the "Freaky Friday" Flip? Now, think a little about it. The lion-riding lord got swapped with a Lucky Cat statue, the vassal with wind Mojikara became a fan, the sushi chef met his Ironic Hell, and the vassal with water Mojikara... well... "Shinken" is the Japanese term for a sword used in battle rather than for training. Takeru leads the Shinkenger in battle while Kaoru spends her time in training for most of the series.

Mako's theme, "Nadeshiko Shinken Hanafubuki". Chiaki's theme, "Shinken Days Never Give Up Dochu". Kotoha's theme, "Hannari Metcha Bushido Girl". Genta's theme, "Gold Ninjo Ipponjime". The only exception would be Takeru's theme, "Shinken Red Ippitsu Sojo". Tori Matsuzaka himself only says lines from the show, while a chorus of children sing for him.

While the team bow to her to maintain formalities (except for Genta; expelled from the residence due to class issues), it doesn't take her long to notice what a crushing presence her spontaneous takeover has on them; their loyalty and teamwork suffering without Takeru. When the Sealing Mojikara fails, she concedes that unity is their strongest weapon and adopts Takeru into the Clan - making him the 19th head and The Leader once again.

Samurai Sentai Shinkenger / int_22cf536c	comment	Dokoku pulls off an impressive one at the end. He saves Dayu and repairs her shamisen in Act 40, throwing her int emotional turmoil. This ultimately culminates with her releasing the soul of the man who spurned her from it, filling the Sanzu to overflowing in one fell swoop. This also leaves Dayu with nothing left to live for, and thus she allows Dokoku to absorb her into him. The point of that exercise? Well, as a "stray", Dayu was a human who fell to Gedou. Absorbing her made Dokoku a "stray". And it's been shown that Gedou-specific seals don't fully work on strays. Thus, Dokoku becomes partially immune to the sealing character - which leaves the Shinkengers at a serious disadvantage.

The place where he and Mako have their little chat is even the same place where Smoky and Urara had theirs. The team's roll call Catchphrase "Iza mairu!"? Carrigator from last year used it pretty often too. It helps that Carrigator's VA was used for the announcer for this series. Though Shinkenger is probably the first series to deploy Giant Mooks who are giant themselves, Gaiark had access to swarms of giant mook-controlled-mecha in the same concept. Act 36 has two: Kotoha's sudden interest in curry rice stems all the way from the original Yellow; and the MotW is a shark-based creature who spins rapidly and says "Sha-kiin!". He even does the pose. Due to its numerous "appendages", SamuraiHaOh really reminds of Tauzant. TenkuShinkenOh's finishing move is called Tenku Karatake Wari. Battle Fever Robo's is called Denkouken Karatake Wari. Both mechas are based on samurai. And then there's the Teamup Convertible, which bears a striking reseblance to a vehicle from Gekisou Sentai Carranger. Western viewers will know it as the Lightning Cruiser from Power Rangers Turbo. The beginning of the DaiKaiShinkenOh formation, involving DaiKaiOh and ShinkenOh standing like Back-to-Back Badasses, resembles that of the BusterOhrangerRoboformation. In the crossover movie, we get another look at Samurai World, and Saki and Hanto get hurled into Junk World a second time. Shinken-Oh's finisher has the same exact motions as Invincible Shogun's: A twirl of the sword in a circle with the right hand, followed by a two-handed diagonal slash.

Samurai Sentai Shinkenger / int_297ab1b9	comment	Parental Abandonment: Takeru and Jii, except for the servants, are pretty much the only ones in the mansion at the start of the series, as Takeru's father was killed during a Gedoushuu raid on the estate. In Act 34, it was revealed that Mako's parents moved to Hawaii when she was around five as her mother, who was the former Shinken Pink, was crippled during Dokoku's raid on the Shiba Clan estate. Mako's grandmother wanted Mako to become the next ShinkenPink, forcing her father to leave her behind. Jii himself is guilty of this. His work with the Shiba household leaves him just one day a year for visiting his wife's grave and his daughter's family, and even then he's had to give it a miss several times. Kaoru's father, the true head of the Shiba Clan, died trying to seal away Dokoku. Kaoru's mother was supposedly still pregnant with Kaoru at the time of the raid, but it has not been confirmed whether or not she's still alive.

Thank you for kindly saving us the trouble, Saburo Yatsudenote A collective "pen name" for Toei's Toku production staff. "This brings this chapter to a conclusion!" If you know what roles Kurokos are given in actual Kabuki theatre, you have to wonder if they're thrown in as a Lampshade to all the stunts, fireworks, Wire Fu and props Super Sentai has been using all these decades... And the In-Universe explanation for the Shinkenger's Super Mode is that the Ayakashi get stronger during the summer months, an element inspired by a recurring myth/rule in Japanese folklore, and they need the firepower to counter this. Even though it probably isn't his habit, Takeru ends up lampshading stuff much of the time, usually whenever the resident Large Hamsnote Jii, Genta and Ryunosuke over-introduce about him. In Act 39, Chiaki is the first to point out that the Town with a Dark Secret sounds like "something out of a horror movie." At least the floating ashes didn't form into spirals...

After Jii smacks him with his Paper Fan of Doom, Chiaki tries to give him a second mark. When Ryunosuke, Mako, and Kotoha attempt to intervene, they end up with giant black streaks across their cheeks. Then at the end of the act, Jii wakes up to find his face filled with random doodles, all provided by Chiaki. Act 27's infamous Neko Tononote "Lord Cat" scene, where Chiaki draws whiskers on Takeru's face while Takeru's soul is trapped in a Lucky Cat statue. Takeru was obviously not pleased. At the beginning of Act 31, Chiaki applies the Neko Tono whiskers again to Takeru as punishment for losing in their card game. Ryunosuke and Kotoha also have various marks on their faces either applied again by Chiaki or possibly Mako or Jii, whose faces remain clean.

This is actually ideal for this year's themes, and gives Shinkenger an interesting position among sentai: not the most cheery and light sentai, but not, by a long shot, the darkest entry, either. It truly takes its cues from the Jidaigeki tradition. The bitter moments, the moments the characters say "Oh, Crap!", are there so that their victory plays perfectly to the the optimistic, virtuous side of the tradition. The definite epic struggle against the Gedoushu and the Tear Jerkers it brings must be there, or the show's humor and up-beat character work wouldn't work as well.

To elaborate, Takeru planned for Mako to get caught as a bride, then get revealed, prompting the Ayakashi to kidnap the bride again... only to have Ryunosuke POSE as the bride, then expected Mako to get threatened and reveal a false location of the brides, then just merely sends out shadows of his team to approach the false location while he uses Ryunosuke's information to get into the real location. Chiaki's plan in Act 27, which is to purposely get hit by the Ayakashi's tendrils so that Kotoha forces the Ayakashi and Chiaki to switch bodies and then force the Ayakashi to tell them how to quickly return everyone's souls to their proper bodies. Akumaro tries to pull off a seriously long term one revealed in Acts 42 and 43. His plan for Hell on Earth requires someone who is neither human nor Gedoshuu. So he finds Juzo and gives him Uramasa, only to reveal two centuries later that it contains the souls of his dead family, and that going through with his plan will release their souls. It qualifies as a Batman Gambit because it relied on Juzo caring about the souls of his loved ones. Unfortunately for Akumaro, it turns out he doesn't.

For added points, 'kyu' and 'juu' translate into 'nine' and 'ten'. Ryuunosuke's worst fear is, oddly, cacti. Ironically, one of Aiba's previous roles cast him as Fuji Shuusuke in The Prince of Tennis musicals, a character who loves cacti and owns quite a number of them.

True, he has a well earned reputation for literally terminating his minions on a whim, but, if he thinks you're of even the slightest use to him, he'll let you get away with murder. Literally! If you can come up with the silliest, most nonsensical plan to raise the level of the Sanzu River by even a half-centimeter, he'll send the Nanashi Renju and a Gedoshu of the Week to help you. And even if you do screw up, Shitari and Akomaru have both shown that Dokoku is not immune to grovelling, flattery or even simple logic. And Dayu found out that when Dokoku forgives you, all is forgiven. shakes fist

Samurai Sentai Shinkenger / int_3d699462	comment	Act 40: Doukoku finally gets out of the Sanzu River and delivers a blistering Curb-Stomp Battle to the Shinkengers, leading to the real reason why he couldn't do this sooner. He dries up faster than any Gedoshu while in the human world, meaning that he becomes half dried-up to the point where he must submerge himself in the Sanzu River, temporarily putting him out of commission.

Samurai Sentai Shinkenger / int_3f1aadeb	type	Strictly Formula
Samurai Sentai Shinkenger / int_3f1aadeb	comment	Strictly Formula: Taking examples of recurring elements from the main Super Sentai page: Bride-attacking Episode: Act 8; Mako and Ryuunosuke posing as the bride. This episode also serves as Foreshadowing for Dayuu's motivations and Backstory. And we're just getting started. Episode 9 gives a Ranger Brainwashing episode, with, of course, Shinken Blue being the victim. It also serves to give us a reason why Takeru is the leader aside from the Law of Chromatic Superiority through Juzo's comments on Takeru's stance and fighting style, Takeru's victory over Ryunosuke and the risk he took in freeing him from the spell. Episode 10, new combination: DaiTenkuu Gattai, which can fly. The episode also serves to provide both Chiaki and Jii with character development. Villains duplicating heroes: Act 15; an Ayakashi posing as Chiaki to alienate him and strike at the heroes when their guard is down. Episode 17, Sixth Ranger joins: EXACTLY when Genta makes his debut. Kaoru's much later appearance as an 11th-Hour Ranger is certainly a lot less common, and thus doesn't count. Episode 20, new Humongous Mecha: Genta introduces us to DaiKaiOh. The episode also serves as an indicator of how far the heroes have come as true companions, as well as cementing Genta's place in the team even further. Rangers forced into another body: Act 27; the Ayakashi with "Soul-switch" ability. In a minor variation, the events of the episode do have some consequence that serves as plot device for the next episode (and lead to the creation of a recurring character) rather than the usual shrug off. The next episode also serves as a partial deconstruction due to Genta's trauma, though it's mostly Played for Laughs. Around Episode 30, new stronger enemy: Not really Act 30, but Act 26 introduces Akumaro, perhaps the second most powerful of the Gedoushu. He also brings with him his own, stronger Ayakashi, thus raising the stakes even further. He serves as a Foil for Dokoku in a Red Oni,Blue Oni relationship. His ultimate goal also differs greatly from his supposed master, which is also a recurring element in Sentai. Monster disables every rangers except one, who finishes it off: Act 41; Kotoha defeating a monster which drove all other Shinkengers into a crazed state of hunger and thirst, while Takeru was out of commission after being smacked down by Dokoku in the previous episode.This serves as Character Development for Kotoha, since she now has to take matters into her own hands after being saved by her comrades occasionally, such as when she had her soul stolen. There's also her getting over her Heroic Self-Deprecation and moving Takeru out of his Ineffectual Loner stage. Heroes Brought Down to Normal: Act 49; While they don't lose the ability to transform, Dokoku's sheer power has them revert back to normal when they kill him the first time. They spend a good portion of the finale without transforming including part of the final battle against Mooks, the role call, and even the final mecha battle. This is Justified by the Shinkengers wanting to conserve as much Mojikara as possible. This is perhaps the greatest evidence there is to their Determinator status. For the most part, Shinkenger seems to play with these recurring plot points, giving them a purpose beyond just filler, tradition and Merchandise-Driven demands, usually in the form of Character Development. Appropriate, given this season's heavy emphasis on such development.

The audacious part is, it worked without a hitch. The "get the Nanashi blind stinking drunk" part may have helped there. Ryunosuke goes to his old theater when he gets word of a performance there, but goes dressed in his usual clothes with the addition of a baseball cap and a pair of glasses. The very first person he sees realizes it's him instantly.

They spend a good portion of the finale without transforming including part of the final battle against Mooks, the role call, and even the final mecha battle. This is Justified by the Shinkengers wanting to conserve as much Mojikara as possible. This is perhaps the greatest evidence there is to their Determinator status.

Samurai Sentai Shinkenger / int_6bda9a30	comment	Meaningful Name: The series title itself is interesting; "Shinkenger" is a portmanteau of "Shinken" and "Ranger". "Shinken"note "True sword" refers to both a Japanese sword used in real combat, as opposed to those used for various types of practice, as well as having a more modern meaning "Seriousness/Wholeheartedness"; it's use in the ending theme is often translated as "earnestness". Both meanings are reflected by the show. Thanks to the wordplay possibility of Japanesenote If a lone Katakana or Hiragana syllable is to be related to a Kanji, pretty much any Kanji in its range of sensibility counts, generally, SamuraiHaOh marginally passes here. Not only the strongest weapon in the Shinkengers' possession, one possible translation of its namenote Officially written in all-Hiragana turns up as "Samurai Destroyernote "Hakai"/"Destruction" King". Now that is one mecha you don't wanna mess with... For that matter, even the bad guys get into this. Chimatsuri Doukoku: "Bloodbath Wailing" Usukawa Dayu: "Thin-skinned Courtesan" Hone no Shitari: "Triumphant Bones" Fuwa Juzou: "Disembowling Ten Organs" Sujigarano Akumaro: "Sinewy-Husked Evil One" Aburame Manpuku: "Greasy Eye, Full Stomach"

It seems she brought the humor which made Den-O stand out in the Rider francise; particularly the "true companions" feel of the group. But do note that Kobayashi did several Darker and Edgier scripts as a lead writer, including but not limited to: Ryuki, Timeranger, Witchblade, Casshern Sins and Blassreiter. It shows in the Wham Episodes (see further down the page). Another facet of Kobayashi's style is her use of unconventional antagonists; Kai who wants to bring back his timeline, Shiro whose plan all along is to bring back his sister, and here, Juzo who just wants to fight and fight, and Dayu, a Yandere dead-set on preserving her one-sided love.

Samurai Sentai Shinkenger / int_83444f07	comment	Mons: The Origami... when not serving as Mecha By Any Other Name. One of the show's favorite "idle moment" shots is to show a Shinkenger playing with or giving attention to their Origami. You see hints of Takeru's softer side when he's sitting with Shishi Origami, and Genta often chatters with Ika and Ebi, whom he has affectinatally named his Ika-chan and Ebizou respectively. Mako and Chiaki's Origami even "play" fight while they talk about Takeru in Act 12. Mako basically sends Kame after Kuma so Chiaki won't distract himself from the talk playing with his "pet bear". Further, there are times a single Origami or group of them is used to attack in their "mons" form, often as the opening salvo in a Shinkenger beatdown.

This is fairly consistent with the idea of bushido that Samurai were said to follow, which stressed honor and duty above all else.

Samurai Sentai Shinkenger / int_87c0c782	comment	"Day of the Week" Name: Instead of their names, four of the group interestingly have their elemental Kanji related to four days of the week: Takeru (Tuesdaynote Kayoubi, "Ka" meaning "Fire"), Ryunosuke (Wednesdaynote Suiyoubi, "Sui" meaning "Water"), Chiaki (Thursdaynote Mokuyoubi, "Moku" meaning "Wood" and using the same kanji as "tree") and Kotoha (Saturdaynote Doyoubi, "Do" meaning "Land"). Since Fridaynote Kinyoubi uses the Kanji "Gold"note "Kin", Genta is arguably a distant connection despite "Light"/"Hikari" being his Kanji. If you don't mind a bit of stretching, you can also relate Mako's "Heaven/Sky" with Sundaynote Nichiyoubi, "Nichi/Hi" meaning "Sun" or "Day" and Mondaynote Getsuyoubi, "Getsu" meaning "Moon".

Samurai Sentai Shinkenger / int_8e20979	comment	Wham Episode: Act 40: Doukoku finally gets out of the Sanzu River and delivers a blistering Curb-Stomp Battle to the Shinkengers, leading to the real reason why he couldn't do this sooner. He dries up faster than any Gedoshu while in the human world, meaning that he becomes half dried-up to the point where he must submerge himself in the Sanzu River, temporarily putting him out of commission. And again with Act 42 and Act 43. Akumaro finally returns the repaired Uramasa to Juzo, divulging that the sword was created from the souls of the latter's family. The Shinkengers learn that Akumaro wants to have the half-human and half-Gedoshu Juzo split open the world and unleash chaos on Earth, with the added bonus of releasing Uramasa's souls. Akumaro partially accomplishes this, destroying many buildings, but Juzo backstabs him at the last minute. While this helps the Shinkengers defeat Akumaro once and for all, this act alone proves that Juzo is irredeemable. He still murdered countless people while knowing about Uramasa's trapped souls. But Act 45 overtakes the previous examples by a long shot. Takeru is revealed to be a shadow lord for the real leader, Kaoru. As a kid, she had gone into hiding for the sole purpose of mastering the sealing character. With this revelation, Kaoru takes over as the leader, while Takeru departs the team. This leaves the retainers conflicted over who to follow. And just to make things even better, Juzo encounters Takeru for their long-awaited duel.

Samurai Sentai Shinkenger / int_9d12bbc1	comment	Foreshadowing: As shocking as Act 44's revelation seems, the reveal was foreshadowed in early episodes. Act 1 has an example in RyÅ«nosuke's and Mako's first encounter. He mistakes her for the Shiba head, exclaiming "I had no idea you were a lady, my lord!" The real Shiba lord is actually a woman, going by the name of Kaoru. In Act 6, the Ayakashi's weaponized insult towards Takeru is calling him a "liar" and the latter panics briefly when he hears the Ayakashi say he only tells the truth. He wasn't wrong, because Takeru was pretending to be the Shiba head, covering for the real one. A further hint is given when you pay close attention to the stories of what happened the night of Dokoku's raid on the Shiba manor. Act 1's flashback shows Takeru's father dying right after giving him the Origami inside a burning building, riddled with arrows in his back. However, it is clearly shown in Act 11's flashback that the Shiba head fell in battle outside after casting the sealing character on Dokoku. In other words, Takeru's father and the previous Shiba head are not the same person. There are several examples in Come Back! Samurai Sentai Shinkenger: Special Act. Throughout all the movie-themed illusion worlds, the camera briefly focuses on a spinning object. It turns out to be the hidden exit, inspired by Demebakuto's illusion lantern. After the Shinkengers escape the space illusion world, they all wake up on rocky terrain, despite the fact that the illusion started when they fought Demebakuto in a city. On top of that, the long title Running Gag still appears despite their escape, alluding to the reveal that this world was another Dream Within a Dream.

He had sacrificed himself to temporarily seal Dokoku and established a decoy for his family to give his daughter enough time to perfect the sealing character, only for it all to be for naught when Dokoku gained an immunity to the seal by absorbing a dying Dayuu. In addition to all of Kaoru's training going to waste, Dokoku learns about her existence, negating all of Takeru's actions as her decoy, including lying to his friends. Tanba, Kaoru's retainer, outright said that the plan was a complete failure. On top of that, because the plan required both the real and fake heads to learn the same element for secrecy, when Kaoru's sealing attempt went bust, she couldn't even join as a seventh Shinkenger after reinstating Takeru as Shinken Red due to having only one Fire disk available, effectively benching Kaoru for the rest of the series.

This is expanded further in Acts 42 and 43. His lover tried to stop him from becoming a Blood Knight, but he refused and left. Akumaro then appeared and killed his lover and crafted her soul in the Uramasa. Akumaro then gave Uramasa to Juzo, who then continued to kill, not knowing that he had become Akumaro's pawn.

Justified in that she possibly spent much of her time training and mastering the sealing character while Takeru was acting as the lord. On the other hand, she serves as a slight deconstruction of this trope. Kaoru quickly learns that her stepping in and taking over just like that crippled the existing team's already established and well-built dynamics and morale. Real lord or no, she was not suited to be the leader of this team that have formed around Takeru's leadership, not hers. Her Jerkass retainer being even more of a stickler for tradition than her rubbing it in Takeru's face, as well as kicking Genta off the team did not help at all. Thus, she eventually pulls strings to have Takeru reinstated as leader AND as a true heir of the Shiba clan via adoption, as well as getting Genta's forgiveness and respect, and putting him back on the team.

Takeru, especially, did not want to risk the others in the beginning; threaten them later in the season and here comes the Fire. And not just him. Act 20 cements it for the core six; and Act 38 removes any doubts about Jii and the Kuroko being merely servants. Hurt any one related to the Shiba clan, and you invite your own world of hurt.

Ryunosuke and Mako too, even as early as Act 4. Heck, they even sleep together under the same blanket. At the end of the Act, however, Mako personally sank that ship, and the incident was never mentioned again. As for Takeru, Kobayashi seems to have a habit of teasing shippers about whether or not he'll end up with Makonote Act 19 & 39-40 or Kotohanote Act 22 & 40-41 who, as mentioned above, is also spending a lot of time with Chiaki. In the end, Takeru ended up with neither; Kotoha went back home to Kyoto and Mako left to join her parents in Hawaii. Genta and Kaoru is getting quite popular after Act 47 when Genta, after hearing Kaoru say that she felt sorry about her sudden appearance causing trouble to Takeru and the rest, says that she's a nice princess. She and Genta also spend the rest of the Act together piloting DaiKaiShinkenOh.

Samurai Sentai Shinkenger / int_e0040f41	comment	Start of Darkness: Both Juzo and Dayu's pasts in Acts 24 and 25. In Act 24, Juzo explains that he gave up the honorable life of bushido simply because it was much more fun killing people and testing his blade against strong opponents. When he came into contact with a deadly disease and realized that the pleasure he got from killing people would be gone, he became a Gedoushu so he could be immortal. This is expanded further in Acts 42 and 43. His lover tried to stop him from becoming a Blood Knight, but he refused and left. Akumaro then appeared and killed his lover and crafted her soul in the Uramasa. Akumaro then gave Uramasa to Juzo, who then continued to kill, not knowing that he had become Akumaro's pawn. Then in Act 25, it was revealed that Dayu was once a woman named Usuyuki who was obsessed with a man who could never love her back, so she decided to crash into the man's wedding and set the place on fire. When she realized that he wouldn't love her back even in death, Usuyuki's soul was corrupted, turning her into Dayu. The man she loved was transformed into her Instrument of Murder.

Samurai Sentai Shinkenger / int_e24a1629	comment	Sugar-and-Ice Personality: Mako. This is very prevalent during Act 13, whereas after telling Kotoha that she never had a childhood like any normal girl, Kotoha tells her that it's okay to cry, and cry she does, in Kotoha's hug. Also, as Ryu-san can tell you, she doesn't do the excessive pampering - in fact, she doesn't hesitate to call her lord on his tsuntsun act while sparing with him. She tries to find the fastest, most pratical way to fix things... usually.

Also, Dayu's shamisen, which is the one thing keeping her "alive," has the soul of her unrequited crush trapped within. One of the wedges that Akumaro creates is formed from the tears of kidnapped children. One of Shitari's plans for bringing the Sanzu into our world involved ritualistically murdering 9 young girls.

In Act 27, Chiaki uses the camera on his Shodo Phone to take a picture of Neko Takeru. The Shodo Phone's brush mode, however, deserves mention as when it is not used for Mojikara, it acts as a normal calligraphy brush. Chiaki often uses it to vandalize someone's face.

Samurai Sentai Shinkenger / int_f2d8e3c2	comment	Evil Plan: The various plots across the fifteen Acts since his appearance? Having Juzo and Dayu work for him in exchange for Uramasa and Dayu's Shamisen? They were all instrumental in his true goal: To create Hell on Earth. Dokoku pulls off an impressive one at the end. He saves Dayu and repairs her shamisen in Act 40, throwing her int emotional turmoil. This ultimately culminates with her releasing the soul of the man who spurned her from it, filling the Sanzu to overflowing in one fell swoop. This also leaves Dayu with nothing left to live for, and thus she allows Dokoku to absorb her into him. The point of that exercise? Well, as a "stray", Dayu was a human who fell to Gedou. Absorbing her made Dokoku a "stray". And it's been shown that Gedou-specific seals don't fully work on strays. Thus, Dokoku becomes partially immune to the sealing character - which leaves the Shinkengers at a serious disadvantage.
