Homurakogi (ホムラコギ) is an Ayakashi armed with twin Enma Daikarin (焔摩大火輪 Flame Mount Giant Fire Wheel) for both hands, which allows him to ride like a vehicle and unleash a fire trap. He also has red eye beams.
History[]
He is assigned by Dokoku to aid the Gaiark President Batcheed in Samurai Sentai Shinkenger vs. Go-Onger: GinmakuBang!!. His role in Batcheed's plan was to hold Hikoma Kusakabe and BOMPER hostage.
After being slain by the Shinkengers and the Go-Ongers on his first life, he joins Batcheed as they flee to the moon, only to become a living shield by Batcheed and be subsequently destroyed by the Origami and the Engines in their Mojikara Cannonball attack as they were in hot pursuit.
Yokai Origin[]
According to folklore, the oboroguruma (朧車) is a yokai that takes the form of an oxcart with a face. The face on Homurakogi's abdomen and his flaming wheels are thought to be the origin of this legend.

Behind the Scenes[]
Portrayal[]
Homurakogi was voiced by Hiroyuki Yoshino (吉野 裕行 Yoshino Hiroyuki). His suit actor was Shinichi Kaneda (金田 進一 Kaneda Shinichi).
Design[]
- His design is based on the oboroguruma yokai.
Concept Art[]
Etymology[]
- His name is a combination of homura (焔, flames) and kogi (漕ぎ, rowing).
Notes[]
- According to the Official Guidebook Bushido Full Throttle accompanying the movie, Homurakogi was originally designed for use in the Shinkenger television series proper but was rejected because the cost of showing him moving on fire wheels larger than his body would have exceeded the budget of an episode. He was used in the movie both because his motif happened to align with Go-Onger’s and because the higher budget afforded his wheels.
