The twelve Keystones then stood within underground chambers throughout the islands of Japan for thousands of years, until a few members of the Teoti returned with the intent of destroying the Keystones, allowing Arabaki to wipe out humanity and give the Teoti a blank slate for their civilization's return to Earth.

Black Shinkalion Kurenai

**Black Shinkalion Kurenai** (ブラックシンカリオン 紅) is one of the alternative modes of the Black Shinkalion. It first appears in Episode 55.

## Description

### History

The Kurenai form was first gained after Seiryu brought the E5's conductor robot Shashot aboard The Black Shinkansen en route to face off against Maximum Dragon. With Shashot inside, the Black Shinkansen began accelerating three times faster than usual, before ending up transforming into Kurenai. The new form quickly sent Maximum Dragon back to the Underground World.

Although it was thought that Shashot was required to evoke such transformation, Seiryu was able to activate the Kurenai form on his own following the incident, as seen when rescuing a damaged 800 during the failed Second Underground World Strategy mission, saving Suzaku from her suicidal attack, and the battle against Sougyoku.

Following the final battle against Kairen, the Black Shinkalion would assume Kurenai mode by default, though it was temporarily taken out of action after an encounter in combat with the Black Shinkalion Numbers. Kurenai would return during the SUEI's last stand against Kirin, and was instrumental in the efforts to repel the Valhallan invasion.

While the Black Shinkalion Kurenai was disused for several years in combat, it returned to the SUEI in the form of a simulation when Seiryu was called in to train the second-generation drivers. However, even as a first-generation Shinkalion, Kurenai still defeated the newer Z Units with little effort, even when the former was unarmed while the latter were Z Combined.

### Weaponry and Abilities

Kurenai is much faster and more powerful than the standard Black Shinkalion, being able to catch up to and defeat Maximum Dragon with minimal effort. It also wields upgraded versions of the Dark Turnstile Sword, which perform almost the exact same functions.

## Appearance

The Black Shinkalion Kurenai is structurally identical to the Black Shinkalion, but has green eyes instead of pink, the red lining is now orange, and its dark blue exterior is now a vibrant crimson red.

## Trivia

* It is the only Shinkalion from Season 1 to make a physical appearance in Season 2.
* As the color change only occurs after the Black Shinkalion transforms into Shinkalion Mode completely, the Kurenai form does not have a Shinkansen Mode counterpart in the series. The closest it ever gets is in the Over Cross Combinations, where its upper body would fold back into the train shape.
* Although the Black Shinkalion Kurenai is unable to assume its own versions of Dragoon Mode and Berserker Mode within the anime, Kurenai versions of the Black Dragon parts are released in the Plarail DXS toyline as part of a special giveaway campaign.
* Kurenai is the only Shinkalion to have Over Cross combined with both of the canon MkII Shinkalions (the E5 MkII and Black Shinkalion Ogre, with the N700S being non-canon to the series).
