Thunder Ninja Undaigo (雷忍者ウナダイゴ Kaminari Ninja Unadaigo, 24) is an eel/taiko drum-themed member of Sargain's Ninja Corps.
History[]
A drum-themed eel Chunin robot, Sargain created him with his research on the Gouraigers to absorb electricity and unleash it with his Space Lightning Taiko Drums. Unadaigo managed to overpower Sky Ninja Shurikenger and the Hurricanegers, keeping them from hitting his weak spot, his lightning absorber. Ikkou and Ishu attempted to beat him with Taiko style, before assuming Gouraiger form and defeating Unadaigo with their Double Gadget. This ninja was then recreated with a serrated sword weapon. He overpowered Senpuujin and Gouraijin until Shurikenger gave Gouraijin the Kabuto Spear to kill off Unadaigo.
