Manpuku Aburame (脂目マンプク Aburame Manpuku) is the main antagonist of Samurai Sentai Shinkenger the Movie: The Fateful War.
History
The leader of the Kusare Gedoshu, a group of powerful Gedoshu that exudes a corpse-like stench that was sealed away three centuries ago by Retsudou Shiba. However, he is revived by Dokoku along with his followers during the summer time. After being slain by the five Shinkengers, his Second Life is activated which they soon kill with Tenkuu ShinkenOh's Tenkuu Bamboo Slash. However, he survives and his outer layer is pulled back revealing his true form, which consists of a large, protruding mouth which tears apart the formation. The form also shoots chest beams. Despite this, it was easily countered with the Kyoryu Origami which bites off the mouth and combines with ShinkenOh to form Kyoryu ShinkenOh's Heaven and Earth Flash. A remnant of his Kusare Gedoshu attempt to take revenge for him in a later Shinkenger episode, but they too are defeated by the powers associated with the Kyoryu Origami. Kyoryuto.
