From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Mogura Juujin is a character from the series Kamen Rider Amazon. His name means "Mole Beastman" and is first known Ally Kaijin in the Kamen Rider Series. The monster first appears in Episode 5.
He is sent by Geddon to kill Kamen Rider Amazon; however, compared to other kaijin of Geddon, he is relatively weak and thus fails his misson. For punishment, he is chained and left to die slowly by Geddon. Taking pity on the monster, Yamamoto Daisuke/Kamen Rider Amazon frees the monster from his punishment. Greatful, he now aids Amazon when he is in danger. Later, he also befriends Tobei Tachibana, the mentor of many Kamen Riders. Mogura Juujin spends most of the time underground, but pops up now and then to provide some comedy relief. In addition, he helps random people who are in danger; specifically, one incident where he scares off Geddon footsoldiers who were chasing a little girl. In Episode 20, he finally meets his demise at the hands of the Mushroom Juujin. In his final episode, he goes undercover to get a cure for Mushroom Juujin's spores, Geddon realizes this and soon chases after him. They eventually catch up resulting in Mushroom Juujin and several Geddon soldiers severely beating him. Then, Mushroom Juujin sprayed his poison spores at him; however, manages to escape. The spores that were sprayed in his face were used to create an antidote; however, before he was given the antidote, Mogura Juujin died in Amazon's arms. Everyone around him mourned his death. Eventually, Amazon would avenge him by shredding Mushroom Juujin's face into ribbons using his Dai Setsudan attack. In the end, a memorial was created in Mogura Juujin's memory.
[edit] Trivia
- Despite speaking in human tongue, during his fights and conversations, he tends to say "Juu" or "Jyu". Whether that's his roar or part of his speech is unclear.
