In the anime[]
Y School Heroes[]
Shikkokumaru made his debut in YG057. When Earth Walker NOA transformed into Black Cat due to uncontrollable power from the Yo-kai World inside him when he was summoning the Classic Yo-kai. He was given the Nura Kimono by Master Nurari and transformed into Shikkokumaru to control his power.


At that time, it was likely to be named "Black Cat NOA" by Zazel, but he didn't feel that it fit, since he kind of looked like a pitch black version of Kengo Benimaru, he wanted to name himself "Makkurokuromaru", but Mataro stopped him because he didn't like the naming and said it wasn't a hero-like name so Mataro named him "Shikkokumaru".
Transformation song[]
♪Black Cat! Into the jet black! Shikkokumaru!♪ (Japanese: ♪ブラックキャット! イントゥ ザ ジェット ブラック!漆黒丸!♪ ♪ Burakku Kyatto! Into~u za jetto burakku! Shikkokumaru♪) with traditional Rock and Roll music.
Quotes[]
- Well then. Dyed in my jet black! Shikkokumaru! (Japanese: 俺の漆黒に染まれ! 漆黒丸! Ore no shikkoku ni somare! Shikkokumaru!)
Etymology[]
"Shikkokumaru" derives from "shikkoku" (Japanese: 漆黒 jet-black) and "maru" (Japanese: 丸 ), which likely comes from Kengo Benimaru's name.
Trivia[]
- Shikkokumaru was the first and only Majin Yo-kai Hero in Y School Heroes: Bustlin' School Life.
- In the 2nd DLC for Bustlin' School Life, Shikkokumaru was Earth Walker's game-exclusive final form, while Black Cat is the final form of Earth Walker only in the anime. In the anime, He is the Majin form of Black Cat. This is most likely due to the transformation sequence in game shows that Shikkokumaru directly transforms from Earth Walker NOA instead of Black Cat.
- His name was originally going to be Black Cat NOA, by Zazel's recommedation.
- Another was Makkurokuromaru, as Jinpei thought of him as a dark Kengo Benimaru.
- He was ultimately named Shikkokumaru by Mataro Tamada.
