Jogon of the Ningyo (人魚のジョ
History[]
An old friend of Kinggon, Jogon is able to latch special seashells onto people which targets a flaw in them and makes them believe a person is saying it behind their backs. While infecting humans with it, he fights against the Goseiger where one of the shells attaches to Agri, making him become doubtful of his own position within the team. At the same time, another shell is taken by Buredoran and attached it to Kinggon, making him think that Makuin merely sees his partner as hired muscle and doesn't trust him as part of his own schemes. Eventually, when Agri gets over his problems, he launches an assault on both Jogon and Kinggon as Super Gosei Black, crushing them before the team joins in and awaken their new finisher: the Miracle Gosei Dynamic.
After being grown by Buredoran, a combination of the Goseigers and Gosei Knight work together to fight Jogon, with Agri smashing the Yuumajuu with a Snake Headder kick before finishing him off with Landick Gosei Great.

- Seashells: He has seashells attached to the neck through water attacks which force out the insecurities of whoever is affected but makes them revealed through other people, making the infected believe that they are the ones who have problems with them instead of realizing it is internal. He also can use puddles as a means to hide or travel between points.
Behind the Scenes[]
Portrayal[]
- Jogon of the Ningyo was voiced by the late Taiki Matsuno (松野 太紀 Matsuno Taiki), who is best known as the voice of Shurikenger in Ninpu Sentai Hurricaneger.
Design[]
- Jogon is based on a silverfish and Ningyo, a yokai who sports a monkey-like face whose succulent flesh is guarded by the belief of bringing misfortune and storms. This youkai is also part of the story of the Yao Bikuni, a Buddhist nun who had lived for 800 years after consuming the flesh of a ningyo, with various versions of the tale differing how exactly she consumed the ningyo.
Concept Art[]
Etymology[]
- Jogon's name is derived from classic films Creature from the Black Lagoon (大アマゾンの半魚人 Dai Amazon no Hangyojin) and Ju-On (呪怨 Ju-On).
- The kanji in Jogon's name is the one for "word" (言 Gon), referring to his scales.
- In modern day, Ningyo is often translated into "mermaid", and this was something that was brought up by the Goseigers, with them calling Jogon a "Gyojin" (魚人, literally "Fishman") rather than a Ningyo.
Notes[]
- He is one of three Earth Condemnation Group Yuumajuu not to be adapted as Toxic Beasts in Power Rangers Megaforce.
