- "A stone turned into a stone...a Monstone. They're pure instinct. No consciousness, unlike Kiramai Stones. Be careful. These things try to invade your body."
- ―Takamichi revealing the nature of a Monstone to Sayo.[src]
Monstones (モンストーン Monsutōn) are a type of monster that are living yet mindless Stones that can merge with lifeforms to cause tremendous destruction.
History[]
A Monstone was unearthed by Takamichi Crystaria 30 years ago. It merged with him and threatened his life until King Oradin brought him back to Crystaria and implanted a Kiramai Stone into his body to counter its harmful effects. TV STORY-Episode 13: Great Underground War
When the Meteorite Jamen attacked Earth, Takamichi accidentally unearthed another Monstone creature whilst trying to locate the Shiny Kiramai Changer and he revealed it's nature to Sayo. Sensing the Meteorite Jamen nearby, the Monstone approached and merged with him, granting him the power of generating lava from his head. It was destroyed with him when Takamichi finished the Jamenshi with the Shining Beam Attack. TV STORY-Episode 12: Wonder Drill Boy
The second Monstone was unearthed by accident when Takamichi and Shiguru were shooting an action film so they transformed and took on the beast. However, it easily broke free of them and ran off to where Carantula was playing a demented version of red light green light where losing turned the Kiramagers into soccer balls. It blasted Takamichi and Shiguru but the latter blocked it with his Kiramai Shield though the Monstone then jumped over one of Takamichi's energy blasts at which point Takamichi left Shiguru to fight it and was easily beaten senseless. However, before the Monstone could finish him off, Takamichi drilled it into the air with his One Drill Strike and it was all revealed to have been a ploy for a surprise attack before he then obliterated the Monstone with his Shining Beam Attack. TV STORY-Episode 15: Listen, The Voice of Takamichi
During the battle against the Whac-A-Mole Jamen, Galza was able to infuse Takamichi with a massive dose of dark energy which allowed the Monstone greater influence over him. TV STORY-Episode 17: The Mansion's Rare Stone
A few days later, Galza is able to unleash a devastating cloud of dark blue-purple energy into Takamichi which fully awakens the Monstone and turns Takamichi into Evil Kiramai SilverHe then reveals that what he did during the previous battle was give the Monstone within Takamichi enough energy to awaken from its dormant state enough that it just needed a power boost to take him over. Takamichi immediately fires off a blast from the Shiny Breaker so that Juru is forced to transform to protect Princess Mabushina which allows him to escape with Galza. They go to an underground parking lot where Galza tells Takamichi to massacre the human race although the Kiramagers arrive and Takamichi has to do battle with them. He takes down Sena and Tametomo with energy slashes from the Shiny Breaker as well as Sayo with a kick to the gut. Shiguru and Juru try to restrain him but he breaks free and drills into the ground which wipes them all out. Sayo tries to make him see reason but is smacked down and even Tametomo's Kiramai Shot blasts are cancelled out and then overtaken by the Shiny Breaker's shots which take him down as well. Shiguru and Sena try to restrain him but are double kicked and sent flying across the parking lot. It temporarily loses control when Juru hugs him but Takamichi reveals that he has to die to truly stop this madness though the Monstone regains control and sends Juru flying with a kick. He then charged up his Shiny Breaker and combines his firepower with Galza which allows them to even break through Juru's Kiramai Shield and hurt him badly before they left.
Later, Takamichi starts to destroy buildings in the city with the Shiny Breaker which gathers massive amounts of dark energy into Galza though he continues fighting the control as the Kiramagers arrive. As the other four Kiramagers fight Galza, Juru takes on Takamichi and manages to restrain him only to be elbowed in the helmet and being pushed back as Takamichi questions why he won't properly fight back. Fortunately, Takamichi regains control long enough for Juru to kill him but he instead used the Destoria Kiramai Stone (recently recieved from King Oradin's spirit after the previous fight put him in a coma) by placing it on his chest. The influence of the Destoria Stone forcibly ejects the Monstone from Takamichi's body, now dark bluey-purple in color before it immediately explodes into rock chunks. However, after Galza survives the Kiramai Rush Stream, he unleashes his dark energy which reassembles Takamichi's Monstone. However, with the combination of both dark energy and Calamentality, it is able to enlarge into the gigantic Jaaku Monstone. TV STORY-Episode 18: Darkness
As Takamichi, Juru, Tametomo, and a mysterious woman are searching for the Illusia Kiramai Stone, Takamichi accidentally uncovers a Monstone. Takamichi immediately transforms and pushes the Monstone back and even manages to hold it in place but is easily tossed to the ground so Juru transforms and they easily hold it in place for a moment before Juru is thrown clean away. Takamichi drops the Energia Kiramai Stone and the Monstone charges, absorbing Energia when Takamichi raises it to defend himself at which point the Monstone harnesses it's power to grow into a giant creature. Juru is amazed but quickly has to dodge it's pointed arm when it rips through the ground as Takamichi forms GigantDriller. GigantDriller immediately tries to slash it up the back but is blocked by the Monstone's arm and the Monstone lays a massive beat-down to it as Yodonna (the mysterious woman from before) reveals herself and defeats the Kiramagers with Zombie Bechats. As Muryou explains it's massive increase in power, the Monstone delivers an even crueller beat-down on the much less powerful GigantDriller with it's head-spike and pointed arms. TV STORY-Episode 25: That Cute Shrine Maiden
As Bomb Jamen becomes the Bomb Jamen Five, the beat-down by the Monstone to GigantDriller continues as it finally goes down froma devastating headbutt. As Yodonna leaves for Yodonheim, GigantDriller is again thrown to the ground but the Monstone starts to overload because of it's massive power boost. The overload forces it to shut down which allows Takamichi to finish it off by impaling it with the Driller Knuckle. The Monstone is ripped into it's middle and falls on it's back once released where it explodes which allows Takamichi to recover the Energia Kiramai Stone. Although the Kiramagers are scared of dying from exposure to it due to what happened to the Monstone and the Zombie Bechats (the latters having turned to sludge when Yodonna empowered them), Juru has used his Insparklenation to create a new device called the Kiraful Go Arrow which transforms the whole team into the Go Kiramagers. TV STORY-Episode 26: Make it an Arrow Weapon
Another Monstone appears when a drunk Princess Mabushina was digging and it tries to fuse with her but her drunk state confuses the stone creature and she hits it. Fleeing, it fuses with Golf Jamen and grants him the power to send people into portals by hitting them with his golf club. It was destroyed as part of him. TV STORY-Episode 35: Wandering Mabushina
No more Monstones have been unearthed since. Whether this means that they are finally extinct or just dormant and haven't been uncovered yet is unclear.
Personality[]
A Monstone was a stone with instinct instead of sentience, thus according to Takamichi, it was a pure stone. They were mindless creatures capable of communicating only in feral roars and growls. They only sought suitable bodies to merge with to survive. It's possible however that they have some sort of lingering intelligence despite being referred to as "mindless beasts", as they often utter the word "Stone!". One instance even looked at Mabushina with confusion when she was behaving erratically drunk.
