Jukkarage (ジュッカラゲ, Jukkarage) are the elite footsoldiers of the Kibaoni Army Corps.

History

The Jukkarage were upgraded from and replacing the initial Hitokarage after Raizo Gabi casted a dark magic spell which transformed all the Hitokarage into the Jukkarage, granting them greater strength and weapons, in order to help Kyuemon Izayoi fight the Ninningers and gain the End Shuriken. They are armed with sasumata-like swords and tanegashima rifles.

58 Jukkarage were part of a group of 100 revived Yokai that appeared on the day of Hyakki Yakou and were fought by AkaNinger and StarNinger. During the contest between the two Ninningers to defeat the most Yokai, all 58 Jukkarage are destroyed by AkaNinger and StarNinger.

Though seemingly all Hitokarage were converted into Jukkarage, both Jukkarage and Hitokarage were later seen fighting alongside each other on behalf of Juza Yumihari. TV STORY-Shuriken Sentai Ninninger The Movie: The Dinosaur Lord's Splendid Ninja Scroll!

During the final battle against the Kibaoni Army Corps, endless Jukkarage and Hyakkarage are spawned by Sakuya Kyuemon as he uses the End Shuriken to flood the world with Yokai in order to destroy the world and create it anew.

The six Ninningers fight through the Kibaoni army and, after defeating both Sakuya Kyuemon and Gengetsu Kibaoni, use the End Shuriken to wish for a world without the End Shuriken, thus reversing the damage it has done and finally wiping out the Yokai horde, bringing the Jukkerage to a permanent end.

Numerous Jukkarage would be recreated by Asmodeus himself in order to serve as part of his army. The only time when they were seen was when they were supporting their superior in the army itself, the Sentai Megid, in attempting to interfere with Zenkaizer's, Kamen Rider Blades', the Taros Imagins and Kamen Rider Zi-O's quest in obtaining some scriptures when they were dragged into a twisted version of Journey to the West.

Forms

• Hyakkarage
• Senkarage

The Hyakkarage (ヒャッカラゲ, Hyakkarage) are elite Jukkarage who are ten times as strong as their regular counterparts and evidently a hundred times stronger than the original Hitokarage. They serve as the bodyguard for Gengetsu Kibaoni's kin, with a pair of them standing by Ariake no Kata's side following her revival. Later on, when Kibaoni's son, Mangetsu Kibaoni, is born by Ariake, he appears flanked by a cohort of red-belted Hyakkarage.
