Might as well post what I mentioned on Skype here as well:

"I don't want to believe this, but "Asuka Kagura" might have been misheard dialogue. There is this one flashback scene from Scroll 49 around the 06:36 mark where Shurikenger swears his allegiance to Kakura (Lazy Gozen), thus giving up his face and true identity. Through some digging I found the line that Gozen says in that flashback scene: "そなたの名前と顔、そして命、本日ただ今より、この覚羅が預かる" (Sonata no namae to kao, soshite inochi, honjitsu tadaima yori, kono Kakura ga azukaru), which means along the lines of "Your name, face, and life, from today and now onwards, will be held onto by Kakura(referring to herself in third person)." Specifically this part here "覚羅が預か" (Kakura ga azuka) I think was misheard to be "Kagura Asuka". Something to point out that Rangercentral also said that Shurikenger's real name was "Kagura Asuka", which was what may have lead to this confusion."
