Sengoku Basra (センゴクバスラ Sengoku Basura) was a samurai-themed Basra Type Jamen Beast of the Dark Empire Yodonheim. It was one of the three released by the invasion gate created from the dark energy gathered by Nazokake Jamen.
History[]
Tank Ligany, Shield Shellga, and Sengoku Basra are all created by Carantula to defend the Yodon Ivy Seed until it matures enough to turn the Earth into an uninhabitable (for humans) wasteland. Sengoku Basra pops up through the ground and slashes apart various buildings in Sector R-15 shortly after the death of the Nazokake Jamen when Galza confronts Mashin Oradin and Yodonna orders the attack. 
TV STORY-Episode 32: There's Something About Sayo
The Jamen Beasts begin demolishing the city together which forces the Kiramagers to split up to cover more ground. Whilst Juru and Tametomo fight an army of Bechats on the ground, Kiramaizin, GigantDriller and King Express Zabyun (piloted by the remaining four Kiramagers) confront the Jamen Beasts. King Express Zabyun fights Sengoku Basra, blocking most of its katana swings and then using its shark fin to disarm it of one of its blades altogether. As Tametomo and Juru confront Yodonna who holds Sayo hostage, the Jamen Beasts are finally knocked back but team up in a train formation which wipes out all three Giant Robos. The tables turn however when Grateful Phoenix (Mashin Hakobu now free from Galza's control because of Mashin Oradin's help) rips the Yodon Ivy Seed out of the building it is being kept in and flies off with it. Now joined by Galza in Smog Jouki, as the Kiramagers become the Go Kiramagers and enter their Mashins, the assembled heroes and villains do battle but Smog Jouki soon knocks the Yodon Ivy Seed loose from Grateful Phoenix. Kiramaizin takes it but Shield Shellga gives chase and Kiramaizin has to pass it off to the flying Grateful Phoenix when Sengoku Basra strikes it in the back.
Shortly, once Tank Ligany makes King Express Zabyun drop it, Sengoku Basra picks it up only to be struck to the ground by GigantDriller although the plant now starts to bud. The Jamen Beasts now adopt their train formation again but Tametomo realizes that they use a rock-paper-scissors formation and thus they can counter it. After Tank Ligany and Shield Shellga go down, Sengoku Basra is last but its katanas are obliterated by GigantDriller's Driller Knuckle which renders it helpless. Smog Jouki soon summons them back to their feet to defend the Yodon Ivy Seed but Grateful Phoenix rushes into the sky and charges up the Grateful Prominence attack with solar energy. Flying back down, the formation cleaves all three Jamen Beasts in half with the attack and they fall on their backs and explode. With the Jamen Beasts gone, the Kiramagers easily destroy the Yodon Ivy Seed with the Grateful Go Arrow and force Galza to retreat. TV STORY-Episode 33: Giant Panic, Big Clash!
Personality[]
Sengoku Basra was a violent and brutally efficient Jamen Beast who spoke only in roars and growls. It was also clearly a team player since it happily and effortlessly teamed up with the Tank Ligany and Sengoku Basra as well as Smog Jouki to try and defend the Yodon Ivy Seed.
