This article is about a Monster in Ninja Sentai Kakuranger. |
Daidarabotchi (ダイダラボッチ Daidarabotchi, 50): A burly yeti-like Youkai and younger brother of Daimaou, he briefly disguised himself as an innkeeper alongside his sister, Yama-uba. But he was killed by Super Kakure Daishogun, Muteki Shogun, and SamuraiMan as a result.
Though unseen, Daidarabotchi's spirit presumably emerged within the Seal Door along with all the other defeated Youkai, after their master Daimaou was finally contained there by the Kakurangers. Reeling that they were now powerless in captivity, the Youkai all vowed that they would one day be reborn and regain their power, cursing humanity. TV STORY-Final Ep.: Sealing!!
Notes
- In Japanese mythology, the Daidarabotchi are giants that can cause the formation of lakes and ponds with their mighty footsteps.
- Though Daidarabotchi was not adapted into Mighty Morphin Power Rangers or Mighty Morphin Alien Rangers, his costume was used in Countdown to Destruction as a monster seen in Divatox's army. This monster was nicknamed "Bonker" by fans.
