Nurikabe (Kakuranger)

Nurikabe appeared in 1994 TV series called Ninja Sentai Kakuranger. Nurikabe (ヌリカベ) is a wall Yokai. He and his brother Mokumokuren captured humans and bet on them to see who can escape their maze first, with the loser giving the winner his gold.

He posed as a Hoodie Man (スタジャン男 Sutajan Otoko).

He became furious after losing, when his brother's choice Saizou escapes, taking out his frustration on the boy whom he bet on previously. When Ninja Blue comes to the boy's aid, Nurikabe uses his Battle Tile transformation Ninpou to fight the Kakurangers before enlarging. Blue Logan defeated him before destroying the manor that contained the maze. Blue Logan was about to destroy Nurikabe when Mokumokuren intervened.

Having fallen in love with Tsuruhime, Mokumokuren uses a necklace he and his brother bought under false pretenses to place the kunochi under his spell to trick her into a legal binding marriage. After a "fixed" Yokai marriage court and Nurikabe's death by the Shark Machine.

A replica of Nurikabe is created with a pincher right arm, fading once Tengu was killed.

Before his death, Nurikabe was one of four potential Yokai husbands who Sunakake Babaa dreamed of marrying before turning to Daimaou himself after they were all killed by the Kakurangers.

Though unseen, Nurikabe's spirit presumably emerged within the Seal Door along with all the other defeated Yokai, after their master Daimaou was finally contained there by the Kakurangers. Reeling that they were now powerless in captivity, the Yokai all vowed that they would one day be reborn and regain their power, cursing humanity. Nurikabe is impatient and petty, taking out his frustration for his failures on others.
