Suyamaru!
Suyamaru is a Baku who became Mukane’s TataKai Buddy. While Mukane slept, Suyamaru consumed his nightmares, making way for his hopes and dreams that created a powerful bond with Suyamaru. His name comes from the Japanese mimetic word suyasuya (すやすや), which means to sleep soundly. This matches Suyamaru’s personality because he consumes the nightmares of those sleeping soundly, so they may dream.

TataKai Gold!
Tatakai Gold / Mukane Kouki (光輝 夢金, Kōki Mukane) – Mukane was a doctor who had felt unsatisfied and unfulfilled in his profession. Until one day when a new patient came in and attacked Mukane, claiming he’s the descendant of one of the Yokai Warriors from long ago. At that moment, a Yokai Memory came to him, having the power of the Baku yokai, Suyamaru. Mukane is very diligent and a true role model figure, he is the oldest of the team and can come off like a grandpa at times to the other members of the team. His parents were always hard on him growing up, and all his schooling years left him proud. Mukane’s helped others in the process, but he always saw more for himself. Now being a TataKaiger he feels more alive and now understands his mission, gaining that fulfillment. He clashes with Kusa’s (Tataki Green) antics at times but treats him like a little brother. *Pictured is Gold’s weapon, the SuyOno, an axe transformed from Suyamaru.

Kumoga!
Kumoga is an exceedingly cruel and savage Gyuki (Ushi-oni), who hunts down other benevolent Yokai. His name is a blend of the words "kumo", meaning spider, "moo" the sound a co/ox makes (in Japanese it sounds like "moe"), and "ogre", another word for oni, but this pronunciation is Oh-ga.

TataKai Killer!
TataKai Killer / Tomosumi Akamei (赤活気 智角, Akamei Tomosumi) - The father of Tsuma who grew up a Yokai enthusiast himself, as the legends were told to him by his parent, and their parents. Through his organization FIST, Tomosumi collected numerous relics of the Yokai War, and had thought of a way Yokai could return the human world. Whether to aid us in health or battle/tactical purposes, since Yokai possess great power. Thus, the Yokai Memories came to be. In present time, Tomosumi became manipulated by the Onmyoji, and though they remain sealed in an ancient artifact, which FIST came to possess, their powers still linger. Using Tomosumi as a tool to free their master from the void is the Onmyoji’s plan. The Yokai Memories were a plan the Onmyoji put in place by controlling him. Tomosumi becomes possessed by a device called the “Killer Loader,” which contains the Kumoga Memory, transforming him into the deadly TataKai Killer!! *Pictured is the KuMoSlicer, transformed from Kumoga.
