"Jibanyan, a scumbag Yo-kai who walks through the city with Yo-juice in hand. He is fond of the Kuroi Yo-kai Watch because he is good at sniffing out scum, perhaps because they are similar."
Yo-kai Medallium biography
"Kuroi Jibanyan who awakens to a true trash whose amount of juice increases day by day. It's so trashy that even the scummy Yo-kai are attracted to it..."
He's the same as Jibanyan, but with a gross and ugly face depicting that of traditional Nekomata sketches and wears a skull bell. In the anime and toys, his paws are shown to be more detailed than his counterpart. They are also very manipulative and opportunistic in nature but is truly a coward at heart.
His abilities are seen as similar to Jibanyan in Yo-kai Watch: Puni Puni but in the show they of course wear the Kuroi Yo-kai Watch. Even with that they still have their own abilities such as sending hexes, change their form to have comically over-sized muscles or an incredibly long neck. They have also been seen drinking from a pear shaped jug with liquid appearing so toxic that not even Kuroi Komasan can handle.
Kuroi Komasan tags along with Kuroi Jibanyan in search of humans to turn into Yo-kai. Throughout the show he's seen as a very loyal acquaintance to Kuroi Jibanyan although he's never afraid to point out his faults.
They use the Black Yo-kai Watch to eat scum with eating people turn them into Yo-kai, although eventually he and Kuroi Komasan take advantage of Kuroi Bushinyan causing the watch to eat them.
Originally seen as human scum Kuroi Keita is the first human turned into a yo-kai, when turned into Kemushi-otoko Kuroi Jibanyan loved to take advantage of him such as using his allowance along with finding joy in Kemushi-otoko being humiliated. Although their relationship appears fully toxic, Kuroi Jibanyan and Komasan do eventually get along with him, with Kuroi Jibanyan having praised Keita in some occasions and being concerned when being bitten into by Kamakiri On'na. At the end however when they and Komasan are turned into medals by the watch, Keita tosses them and the Kuroi Yo-kai Medallium in a near river showing that Keita never really cared about them but instead was waiting for an opportunity get rid of them.
Kuroi Bushinyan is the elder of Kuroi Jibanyan. That being the case truly Kuroi Jibanyan has no respect for him and only acts koy to him as to obtain his riches, something that Bushinyan easily notices only acting not to until the end. After passing out from the pain of a stubbed toe, Kuroi Jibanyan tosses his medal away and offers to sell the shogun's armor which of course angers the Kuroi Watch.
Although seen by everyone as a lowlife con-artist, Kuroi JIbanyan is fearfully respectful in the presence of him as Kuroi Orichi is known as a powerful and high ranking yo-kai (likely referencing Venoct being S-Ranked). At least until Kuroi Orochi eventually get eaten and swallowed by the Kuroi Watch, never being heard from again.
Everyone hates UZApyon, Kuroi Jibanyan included. When swallowed by the watch (Which "Killed" Kuroi Orochi) UZApyon walks back from off-screen unscathed much to the annoyance of everyone.
