Ninningers

The five main members of the Ninningers are the descendants of the Igasaki Clan (伊賀崎氏, Igasaki-shi), ninja who were involved in Japan's Sengoku Era where they dispatched Gengetsu Kibaoni, and are also the grandchildren of Yoshitaka Igasaki, who has been preparing for Kibaoni's predestined return. As users of their clan's Shuriken Ninja Arts (手裏剣忍法, Shuriken Ninpō) fighting style, the Ninningers' arsenal revolves around the use of their Nin Shuriken (忍シュリケン). The Ninningers can restore the purified Sealing Shuriken to the Nin Shuriken by sharpening their Nintality (忍タリティ, Nintariti) enough. They each transform by inserting a Transformation Nin Shuriken (変化忍シュリケン, Henge Nin Shuriken) into their ninjatō-like Ninja Ichibantou (忍者一番刀, Ninja Ichibantō, Ninja Best Sword) sidearm weapons, which also can be used to perform special attacks including their signature Nin Fury Slash (忍烈斬, Ninretsuzan) attack, elemental jutsu with a Five-Style Nin Shuriken (五トン忍シュリケン, Goton Nin Shuriken), unique jutsu with a Technique Nin Shuriken (技忍シュリケン, Waza Nin Shuriken) (including special techniques used by other ninja heroes like the Hurricanegers, the Kakurangers and Jiraiya), and summon their Otomonin. The Ninningers' Nin Shuriken-compatible arsenal also includes the Yokai-detecting Gamagama-Ju (ガマガマ銃, Gamagama Jū, Toad-Toad Gun) firearms that fire from the Beron Barrel (ベロンバレル, Beron Bareru) and function as a Yokai alert system, and the Fūma shuriken-like Karakuri Hengen (カラクリヘンゲン, Karakuri Change) that have blade, bow, and claw modes.

One of the many legends associated to Yoshitaka is that he made contact with aliens several times, which was proven true when it is revealed that he used alien technology to create the Otomonin. Yoshitaka explains that he would eventually choose one of his grandchildren who managed to exceed his expectations by improving their Nintality while fully mastering the Shuriken Ninja Arts to become his successor and inherit the title of Last Ninja. However, he later reveals that the title of Last Ninja can be only be inherited by whoever strikes him down and absorbs his Nintality, much to the grief of his grandchildren, but when they show him their own conviction to surpass him by finding their own path to become the Last Ninja, he acknowledges them and joins forces with the Ninningers for the final battle with the Kibaoni Army Corps, by transforming into his own version of Aka Ninger. He is later killed when Kyuemon stabs him in the back, taking his Nintality and End Shuriken for himself before fading away from existence. At the same time, Yoshitaka reveals that he has actually been dead for the past some decades, ever since he sealed Gengetsu Kibaoni, and the End Shuriken has been all that has kept him alive since.

As a self-styled page of Kibaoni, Kyuemon ordered the destruction of the Igasaki Ninjutsu Dojo to obtain a special mallet that he uses to end the confinement of Kibaoni's spirit. Kyuemon also searches for the End Shuriken for its power, justifying he has the right as Yoshitaka's first apprentice. But while Raizo was easy for him to manipulate, Kyuemon had difficult luck doing the same with Masakage and attempts an alliance with Kinji for his goals. When that failed, Kyuemon acts against Masakage and Ariake by reviving four of the Oniwaban Five into his service. Later, after finding Mangetsu dying after a fight Ninningers, Kyuemon reveals that he is Kibaoni's firstborn son. Kibaoni further explains that Kyuemon is his son Shingetsu Kyuemon Kibaoni (牙鬼 久右衛門 新月, Kibaoni Kyūemon Shingetsu) by a concubine 444 years prior to the start of the series; he then went on to protect Kyuemon, and set the plans of his second revival into motion by using his then-nascent Yokai powers to send the infant into the future. When the Ninningers fought his father, he stabbed Yoshitaka in the back killing him, stealing his Nintality and the End Shuriken. He uses the stolen Last Ninja powers and several corrupted Sealing Shuriken to assumes a much more powerful form. In his final stand against the Ninningers, Takaharu and Kinji manage to figure out that Kyuemon has actually been following in Yoshitaka's footsteps all along, in a similar way to Kinji, as both want the End Shuriken in order to bring their families back. After admitting this is the truth, Kyuemon receives his own Nin Shuriken from Yoshikata but is interrupted by Gengetsu, who absorbs Kyuemon into his body to boost his power. In a last ditch effort, Kyuemon escapes from his father, allowing the Ninningers to finish him. After making peace with Yoshitaka, Kyuemon finally passes on and returns the End Shuriken to the Ninningers. His personal Nin Shuriken is enshrined in his memory, until it is given by Sakurako to Luna to become Mido Ninger. During the battle against the revived Ariake and Mangetsu, Kyuemon's sprit contained inside the Nin Shuriken possesses Luna's body and he fights alongside the Ninningers to repay his debt to them, finally being allowed to reincarnate after returning to the Igasaki Clan the mallet he stole from them.

    While using his bottle gourd to gather the Power of Fear emitted from the terrorized humans needed to fully revive Kibaoni and his retainers, Kyuemon can also use his mallet in conjunction with Sealing Shurikens that he corrupted with his power into Yo Shuriken (妖シュリケン, Yō Shuriken, Bewitching Shuriken). Such Yo Shuiken include the Five-Style Yo Shuriken (五トン妖シュリケン, Goton Yō Shuriken), that is used for the Hypertrophic Fast Growth Jutsu (肥大蕃息の術, Hidaihansoku no Jutsu) to revive a defeated Yokai as a giant, the Yokai Fusing Jutsu (妖怪融合の術, Yōkai Yūgō no Jutsu) to turn a human into a Yokai, the Shinobi Summoning Jutsu (忍び招へいの術, Shinobi Shōhei no Jutsu) to summon an Izayoi-Style Ninja, the revival of Kibaoni, and the Release Absorbing Jutsu (遊離吸収の術, Yūri Kyūshū no Jutsu) to absorb an Igasaki Ninja's Nintality, and the Gashadokuro Yo Shuriken (ガシャドクロ妖シュリケン, Gashadokuro Yō Shuriken) that summon Gashadokuro. The mallet is also capable of turning into a sword for combat. His signature attacks are 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).

While he passionately hates the Igasaki clan, Raizo has his own ambition and craves battling powerful enemies to the point that he will kill off his allies if he considers them to be interfering. Raizo was revived after Kyuemon gives his remains the Power of Fear that he collected from the actions of Kamaitachi and Kappa so that he can help him gather more fear. But revealed to be not fully awakened, Raizo refuses to aid Kyuemon as he personally fights the Ninningers to awake himself up by facing a worthy opponent. This results in Raizo finding an ideal opponent in Takaharu, reluctantly agreeing to assist Kyuemon as it would allow him to be able to fight the human for real in a battle to the death. Once eventually achieving his goal, managing to render Takaharu unconscious after defeating him, Raizo honors his promise to Kyuemon by terrorizing the city with his Jukkarage forces before being defeated by Aka Ninger in a rematch. Though he accepted his defeat, Raizo is forcefully enlarged into a mindless berserker by Kyuemon, wielding a Gashadokuro zanbatō. In the end, Raizo is defeated by King Shurikenzin and enabled to return to the afterlife, thanking Takaharu and apologizing to his master. When Gengetsu Kibaoni is finally fully revived, he revives Raizo a second time with a corrupted Sealing Shuriken, giving him a more powerful form.

However, Masakage regards the destruction of the Igasaki Clan as his top priority, and is perceptive enough to know Kyuemon is not an true member of the Kibaoni Army Corps. Masakage permits Kyuemon's continued presence so long as he does not act against Kibaoni's will.

    He eventually took the fight to the Ninningers personally after his master fully revived, when Kyuemon, now speaking as Kibaoni's second-in-command, tasks him with gathering more fear. During the fight, it is revealed Masakage is actually very tiny and the human sized body the Ninningers fought is a mechanical replica piloted by the tiny original.

She is impatient and vain, yelling at Masakage or Kyuemon (whom she always refers to as "kitsune") to fix things when things don't go right and using the "fear" gathered by Kyuemon as a beauty treatment or to flavor shaved ice. She believes she needs to look her best when her husband is finally revived. She is never seen without two Hyakkarage bodyguards who protect and serve her. Ariake eventually reveals the reason why she needed so much fear energy was because she was pregnant with Kibaoni's son, Mangetsu Kibaoni. She loves Mangetsu dearly, doting on him even though he was extremely abusive towards her, and even forgives him for using her as a human shield. When Kyuemon reports Mangetsu's demise to Ariake, her rage and grief, alone, creates an overflow of fear energy great enough to allow Kibaoni to regain his physical form and is heartbroken to learn of Kyuemon's familial ties to her husband. During the final battle, Ariake is mortally wounded by Kinji and Kasumi with her life force then absorbed by Kibaoni.

    Two years later, Ariake returns from the dead, seeking revenge on the Ninningers along with Juza. She revives Mangetsu with the Power of Fear, but is finally destroyed along with him by the seven Ninningers.
