This article is about an ally in Ninja Sentai Kakuranger. |
Lord Yoshiteru (義輝), also known as Hakumenrou (白面郎 Hakumenrō, White Masked Man) 30-53 is a mysterious armored man who turns out to be Tsuruhime's father.
History[]
Hakumenrou resurfaced with Daimaou during Daimou's eventual coming in the human world, leaving his daughter at a young age in an attempt to stop it from happening. However, he failed and offered his servitude to Daimaou in return for the lives of his companions.
However, Hakumenrou used his servitude as a ruse to side with the Yokai in order to find Daimaou's weakness. Upon arriving to oversee the final steps of Daimaou's arrival, Hakumenrou is forced to fight his own daughter to keep face. It was by the Daradara incident where he helped the Kakurangers by supplying them with the weakness of Daradara that Daimaou learned the true intent of Hakumenrou and turned him to stone for his betrayal. Hakumenrou was the one who told the Kakurangers how to defeat Daradara.
Yama-uba tried to use Hakumenrou as her trump card, by making him part mobile and part stone. Though he could move again, he lost his free will, being sent to fight his daughter and the other Kakurangers. He was restored completely by the series's end and reunited with his daughter.
