Enraenra (エンラエンラ Enreaenra) is a Enraenra and furnace-themed Yokai.
History[]
He swore revenge on Nekomaru for almost running him over, bashing it before using his angry smog on Seikai. The others arrived to his aid, only for Enraenra to escape and start to subject everyone to laughing gas and red tear gas simultaneously until the Kakurangers fought him. They were unable to land a hit on him until, with help from Miyoko and her brothers, Seikai sucked Enraenra into a vacuum cleaner.
Enraenra managed to use the enlarging lightning to escape his prison and become huge. In battle, Muteki Shogun was unable to hit him with the Flaming Sword and it was subjected to Enraenra's gases, until it disbursed from the fits of laughter/crying. Enraenra then proceeded to tear the city apart until Miyako snagged a much larger machine for the Kakurangers to use against Enraenra, freezing him with it. Afterwards, the Kakurangers killed him off with the Kakuranger Ball's Super Kakure Shoot, making him fall on his face and explode. 
TV STORY-Ep. 22: I'll Make You Laugh
Though unseen, Enraenra'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. TV STORY-Final Ep.: Sealing!!
