Assault Exosuit

The Assault Exosuit is a piece of armored battle gear that Saint-Germain builds for his henchwoman, the Jet Booster Exosuit Kur, expressly to help her hunt down and kill Okarun. It debuts during the Kozuka Knives Arc and is later rebuilt after heavy combat damage.

Asura

Asura is a set of kozuka knives forged from the essence of the cursed sword of the same name. Coming in black and white variants, they let a network of power collectors strip supernatural abilities from one person and bestow them on another, making them central to the Orchestrator's schemes.

Asura (Kogai)

Asura is a set of kozuka-style kogai forged out of the essence of the cursed sword that shares its name. Carried by Saint-Germain, the small blades hold stolen yokai power and let him tap that energy in combat.

Asura (Sword)

Asura is a cursed katana able to siphon power from yokai. Stolen years ago by Saint-Germain, it was the raw material for a matching set of kozuka knives and kogai that copy its abilities while leaving out the curse.

Bamora (Exosuit)

Bamora, formally the Space Monster Bamora, is a one-of-a-kind kaiju exosuit grown from captured Sumerians. Shaped like their worshipped god, it turns invisible, grows enormous, and ends up the property of the girl Bamora.

Blockchain Virus

A lab-made pathogen engineered by a Clown Dragon Knight. Spread onto bare bones, it grows back flesh and blood so a dead creature returns to its living shape, though whatever rises again has no mind and stays inert without an outside force driving it.

Combat-Use Simulator

A piece of Serpo technology that conjures enemy holograms for training. The flying shell-shaped units scan a wielder's retinas, then rebuild scanned foes in three dimensions so fighters can rehearse against them before the looming Kur invasion.

Crime Prevention Whistle

A small brass whistle that, from a distance, lights up a lamp inside the bakery called Tasty Geezer Breads. Blowing it now summons Saint-Germain's GPS-equipped henchwoman, and the signal carries even from within Empty Space. Momo currently keeps it.

Cursed Object

Cursed Objects are everyday items laced with a curse, so that whoever takes one into their possession is struck by misfortune. They usually form through yokai influence and are best handled by sealing them away.

Danmara (Cursed Object)

The Danmara is a cursed trunk meant to imprison the yokai called the Fairy-Tale Card. Once that spirit built a dimension inside it, the trunk became a board game that pulls anyone who touches it into his world.

Electric Net Gun

An alien capture weapon that snares a target in an electrified net while shutting down their powers. A jolt pins the victim like a taser, then four arms detach, spin out binding threads, and drive into the ground to make escape impossible.

Evil Eye's Briefs

The plain white underwear the Evil Eye wore while possessing Jiji. After striking a deal to battle only Okarun, the yokai cast the briefs off and gave them to Manjiro, since the garment, it claimed, refused to obey its wearer.

Exosuit

Exosuits are wearable exoskeletons of advanced alien design that boost and sustain a living body. The Kur are notorious for using them to invade worlds and endure alien atmospheres, and many distinct models exist.

Gates of Hell

A towering bronze sculpture kept within Tokyo's Ueno Park, held inside the city's National Museum of Western Art. Shown to the public as fine art, it secretly doubles as a paranormal doorway leading down into the lair belonging to Vlad.

Groucho Translator

The Groucho Translator is a gadget kept by Mantisian that cracks unknown alien speech. Built to look like the joke disguise of fake eyebrows, nose, and moustache, it is best remembered for decoding Bamora's strange tongue when the boys first try to talk with her.

Hastur (Exosuit)

Hastur is the battle exosuit worn by the commander of the Kur Advance Unit. Reptilian in shape and armed with a deadly tail, it served the alien through the invasion of Sumer and into the assault on Earth, until Okarun smashed clean through it and brought it down.

Head Exosuit

The Head Exosuit is a compact Kur war machine produced in large numbers by the alien race. Little more than a toothed dome head serving as the cockpit, it was a common sight among the invading forces until Okarun destroyed one. Its look draws on the Alien franchise's Xenomorph.

Imotako (Exosuit)

Imotako is a roughly two-meter Kur exosuit with a flat, dogu-inspired body and a power to reshape Serpo clones into copies of itself. Worn by an Advance Unit alien through the Sumer raid and the Earth campaign, it was wiped out by Momo's Moe Moe Tri-Beam.

Iron (Data Restoring Device)

The Data Restoring Device, which looks exactly like an ordinary clothes iron, is Serpo technology that rewrites corrupted code back into Serpo clones. It became a key tool when Momo and Rokuro fought to free clones hacked by the Imotako Kur.

Jet Booster Exosuit

An exosuit fielded by an alien of the Kur Advance Unit. After its wearer clashed with Okarun, the gear took heavy damage and Saint-Germain ruled it beyond use, later swapping in an aviate exosuit for the alien instead.

Kintama

The kintama are the two golden testicles stolen from Ken Takakura by Turbo Granny and then lost. Charged with yokai spirit energy, they let humans see the supernatural and can fuel alien machinery, making them a prize chased across the entire Kintama Hunt Saga.

Kintama Recovery Apparatus (Body Part Extractor)

The Body Part Extractor is a gun-like Serpo tool that cleanly pulls an organ out of a target's body without harming it. The Kur seized it from a raided Serpo base and used it to strip Okarun of his Kintama after defeating him.

Mantis Exosuit

A Kur of the Advance Unit piloted the Mantis Exosuit, a towering war machine shaped like a mechanical praying mantis. Equipped with laser blades, a venomous needle, and a submersible mode, it was wrecked when Mantisian's Jet Punch detonated it and killed the pilot inside.

Miniature Communicator

The Miniature Communicator is a tiny Serpo chip that reads a user's brainwaves to enable telepathic conversation across any species or yokai. Carrying a heads-up display with maps and camera feeds, it let the Family coordinate through the Kur invasion and the Danmara ordeal.

Nanoskin

Nanoskin is a shape-memory alloy from outer space that aliens mold into almost anything they can picture, from vehicles and armor to towering mechas. Loaned by Ludris to rebuild the Ayase house, it became Kinta's signature weapon and a versatile tool for the Family.

Nessie (Bat)

Nessie is Seiko Ayase's signature metal bat, a red-handled weapon engraved with the Power of Nessie and fitted with a hidden retractable pencil. She swings it in melee combat and draws spirit-warding barriers with its tip, named after the Loch Ness Monster.

Oni Club

The Oni Club is a deceptively small charcoal twig handed to Okarun by Seiko Ayase. Channeling ki transforms the unremarkable stick into a full sized demon weapon, and Momo can boost its size through touch, making it a vital tool during the group's fights with the Serpo.

Payase's Cursed Painting

A cursed painting acquired by the collector Payase, this framed artwork carries a hex that triggers spontaneous fires on a daily basis. Its grim imagery of an eyeless head on a hill under a moonlit sky makes it a fitting addition to his shelf of haunted objects.

Portable Warp Device

A compact Kur teleportation tool, the Portable Warp Device opens a short range gate using three deployed disks. It lets the Kur Advance Unit strike quickly and retreat to recharge before their power hungry exosuits run dry.

Power Transference Mechanism

A throne like apparatus fused to Vlad, the Power Transference Mechanism funnels stolen abilities stored in kozuka knives into his body. It is central to his scheme of gathering six powers to unlock the Fairy-Tale Card and become the ultimate yokai.

Suda Ko (Exosuit)

Suda Ko is one of the small Kur exosuit models, a roughly 1.2 meter winged shell armed with a long range railgun. The Advance Unit version was piloted alongside Takonoka Ru Patcho and Ta Komeshi until Jiji's Evil Gun destroyed it during the Kur Invasion.

Ta Komeshi (Exosuit)

Ta Komeshi is a large three meter Kur exosuit built around an anti-gravity beam cannon and a shockwave field. Worn by an Advance Unit Kur, it fought Jiji and Aira until Jiji's empowered Evil Gun destroyed it during the Kur Invasion.

Takonoka Ru Patcho (Exosuit)

Takonoka Ru Patcho is a roughly three meter Kur exosuit packing ten missile launchers and an electric shield raised by floating disks. Its pilot boasted of perfect offense and defense until Aira's spiraling Noble Drill pierced straight through it.

Ta Koshin Jo (Exosuit)

Ta Koshin Jo is a superheavy Kur exosuit shaped like a towering four meter mecha bristling with rocket launchers. After Okarun wrecked its guns it was refitted with gatling weapons, and it was finally destroyed by Bamora during the Kur Invasion.

Ta Kowasa (Exosuit)

Ta Kowasa is a 1.8 meter bipedal Kur exosuit defined by six grasping mechanical appendages and a chameleon like head. Its pilot could drain an opponent's energy through the fingers, a trick that backfired fatally when Jiji overloaded it during the Kur Invasion.

Territory Can

The Territory Can is a building sized soda can weapon built by the Mandrill Alien to brainwash humans for harvesting. Once switched on it turns a 100 kilometer zone into a forced game of tag, sealing tagged victims inside their own cans.

Uchide-no-Kozuchi

Rooted in Japanese folklore, the Uchide-no-Kozuchi is a fabled mallet said to resize objects and grant wishes. Once swung by Issun-boshi and now kept by the deity Daikokuten, it becomes the sought-after tool for reversing the curse that shrank Momo.
