Compatible Rate

**Compatible Rate** (適合率) is a conceptual factor used by the Shinkansen Ultra Evolution Institute to select a Shinkalion driver.

## Description

Developed by SUEI founder Isaburo Yatsushiro, Compatible Rates determine if one is capable of driving a Shinkalion. For reasons unknown, the designs left behind by Yatsushiro resulted in the Shinkalion systems being all but barely operable for adults, while children have no problem using them to their fullest. A clear-cut example is the E6 and E7, which tended to struggle when driven by adults but functioned properly when children were made the drivers. The only known exceptions from this are the 500 Kodama and the 923 Doctor Yellow, which are built specifically for adult usage. However, as demonstrated with Ryūji Kiyosu, a veteran Shinkalion driver, a driver's Compatible Rate will drop as they age, making the chances of retaining the ability to drive a Shinkalion very slim.

Although children tend to be higher in Compatible Ratings than adults, not all children have their rates high enough to drive a Shinkalion. Examples of these exceptions are Azusa Ueda and Abuto Usui. However, the latter is still capable of driving the Dark Shinkalion, a unit specifically built for the Teoti, due to other required factors for driving the unit.

While the Compatible Rates of each driver can be monitored in battle or acquired via simulation results, more immediate readings can be taken simply by having the candidate make physical contact with the SUEI's conductor robots, Shashot and Smat.

## Compatible Rate rankings

*Note:* All characters are listed in order of their respective highest Compatible Rate record shown in the episodes.

* Hayato Hayasugi (103.0% {Season 1 Episode 64})
* Seiryu (99.69% {Season 1 Episode 64})
* Ryūji Kiyosu (98.47% {Season 1 Episode 47})
* Shin Arata (96.27% {Season 2 Episode 30})
* Shimakaze Anjō (96.17% {Season 2 Episode 30}
* Nagara Anjō (95.0% {Season 2 Episode 12})
* Hanabi Ōmagari (92.7% {Season 2 Episode 25})
* Akita Oga (91.3% {Season 1 Episode 66})
* Tsuranuki Daimonyama (90.6% {Season 1 Episode 07})
* Tatsumi Kiyosu (86.5% {Season 1 Episode 54})
* Rei Ozora (85.5% {Season 1 Episode 46})
* Jō Itsutsubashi, Gin Itsutsubashi and Takatora Kirishima (83.5% {Season 1 Episode 35})

雨は夜更け過ぎに

雪へと変わるだろう

Silent night, Holy night

きっと君は来ない

ひとりきりのクリスマス・イブ

Silent night, Holy night

心深く　秘めた想い

叶えられそうもない

必ず今夜なら

言えそうな気がした

Silent night, Holy night

まだ消え残る　君への想い

夜へと降り続く

街角にはクリスマス・トゥリー

銀色のきらめき

Silent night, Holy night

雨は夜更け過ぎに

雪へと変わるだろう

Silent night, Holy night

きっと君は来ない

ひとりきりのクリスマス・イブ

Silent night, Holy night

### English

All alone I watch the quiet rain

Wonder if it's gonna snow again

Silent night, Holy night

I was praying you'd be here with me

But Christmas Eve ain't what it used to be

Silent night, Holy night

If you were beside me

Then I could hear angels

And I'd give you rainbows,

for Christmas

Somewhere far away the sleighbells ring

I remember when we used to sing

Silent night, Holy night

I keep you inside me

Oh the truth is unspoken,

So my heart won't be broken,

on Christmas

They lit the trees along the avenue

Twinkling silver with a touch of blue

Silent night, Holy night

All alone I watch the quiet rain

Wonder if it's gonna snow again

Silent night, Holy night

I was praying you'd be here with me

But Christmas Eve ain't what it used to be

Silent night, Holy night

* handheld
* activated
* Numbers

## Description

The Dark Railway Crossing Shuriken is the Black Shinkalion's counterpart to the Railway Crossing Shuriken used by the E3.

The weapon is golden all over and lacks the hazard stripes on the E3's version. Like the rest of the Black Shinkalion's weapons, the Dark Railway Crossing Shuriken glows with a red aura in Berserker Mode.

### Functions

While the Dark Railway Crossing Shuriken is capable of being thrown toward the enemy like an actual shuriken, the weapon can also be used to create shockwaves by spinning rapidly when handheld. Unlike the E3's Railway Crossing Shuriken, the weapon lacks the ability to convert into Kunai Mode.
Arid Beast

**Arid Beasts** (荒兽, Huāng shòu) were former cultivators from the first era of Arid Triad, which went through the disaster.

## About

They were cultivators with fierce and murderous looks, but on their faces was bewilderment. There was an ancient air to them along with a powerful intent for destruction. The presence of an Antecedental Spirit was a supplement for them.

Zhan Bai’s Master was one of them.

Once a person succeed in spirit ascension in All Spirits Hall, Arid Beasts appear.
Dark Dragon Knuckle

## Description

The Dark Dragon Knuckles are the Black Shinkalion's counterpart to the Dragon Knuckle used by the N700A Advanced Mode. They are form by parts of the forearms of the Black Dragon. The Black Shinkalion has access to two copies of the weapon, whereas the N700A only has one.

### Appearance

The Dark Dragon Knuckles are enhancements of the Black Shinkalion's feet, with golden claws over the toes, additional heels and side armors. Like the rest of Black Shinkalion's weapons, the Dark Dragon Knuckles glow with a red aura in Berserker Mode.

### Functions

Unlike the N700A's version, the Dark Dragon Knuckle attack is not launched physically, but rather is used as a way to neutralize the N700A's Dragon Knuckle attack by kicking. When activated, it releases a pink aura in the shape of a dragon.

## Trivia

* While the promo for the Plarail DXS product depicts the the weapons being capable to be equipped on the Black Shinkalion's forearms in its normal mode, such configuration is never used in the anime.
Dark Shinkalion Absolute Centaur Mode

**Dark Shinkalion Absolute Centaur Mode** (ダークシンカリオンアブソリュート ケンタウロスモード) is one of the alternative modes of Dark Shinkalion Absolute. It is the combination of Dark Shinkalion Absolute and Absolute Unicorn. It first appears in a special promotional video released June 10, 2022, before canonically debuting in the the sequel novel Shinkansen Henkei Robo Shinkalion Z: Yamanote Crisis.

## Appearance

The outlook of Absolute Centaur Mode is identical to the original Dark Shinkalion Centaur Mode, but with the color scheme of white, lavender, grayish blue and pink like the Absolute form instead of the original black, magenta and gold. However, unlike the original, the Absolute version has its Absolute Wings attached to its waist instead of the side of the original thigh parts, and its head gear is placed on its Shinkalion head rather than remaining on the horse head. The design of the head gear is also different, featuring a horn on the top that can absorb thunder to charge up the unit.

## Trivia

### Errors

* The transformation sequence in the PV incorrectly shows the unit's wings being attached to the same position as the original Dark Shinkalion Centaur Mode. The wings are later shown in the correct position at the end of the sequence.
	+ Besides, several accessories such as the Absolute Blasters and the backpack are briefly shown colored silver instead of black during the sequence.

Desperation of the Vanquished

The code being activated on Monsterized Kannagi

**Desperation of the Vanquished** (敗者必滅) is the name given to a special code used by the Teoti as a last resort in combat.

## Description

Known as the "forbidden code", the Desperation of the Vanquished takes control of the Teoti who activated it, making them unable to stop fighting until they die from enemy-inflicted wounds or exhaustion. The code also increases the user's levels of aggression and power, allowing Kannagi in his Giant Monstrous Being form to almost defeat the Dark Shinkalion Absolute had he gone uninterrupted.

Although the code prevents the user from backing down from a fight, it can be neutered and the user can be restored to normal. However, it requires a nearly fatal attack from the enemy in order for it to occur.

### History

The "Desperation of the Vanquished" code was passed down for generations in the Teoti, with the most recent known user being Kannagi, the heir to the Teoti throne, who used it not long after losing Abuto Usui and the Dark Shinkalion to the side of the SUEI. Taken over by rage, Kannagi ordered Astrea to bring the code forward, a task she reluctantly complied with. While the code did allow Kannagi to assume his Giant Monstrous Being form, it only took effect on his mind after he was defeated by Abuto in the Dark Shinkalion Absolute, and managed to almost kill him had Bahram and Camalus not stopped him at the last second. The Dark Shinkalion Absolute then fired the Absolute Gran Cross, releasing Kannagi from the code's influence. Afterwards, the code fell into permanent disuse.
Wings of the Moon

**Wings of the Moon** were souls of members of Fire Berserker Tribe.

## Appearance

Wings of the Moon were red shadows that looked like strange beasts that had a pair of wings and red eyes. They were the size of a palm and had six limbs. They also had human faces which were filled with madness and lust for blood.

## Background

The Wings of the Moon were created when the Elder of Fire Berserker Tribe had cast a Great Divine Art to grant those within Fire Berserker Tribe immortality. This Art was then modified by the God of Berserkers with the Eternal Creation Art, changing them into creatures that were neither human nor beast. But after passing ages, the Divine Art had become weaker, causing breaks to appear in their cursed immortality.

## About

They reside in the five summits of Dark Mountain.

Every three years they descended upon tribes on the Dark Mountain and attack people. They sucked their blood and captured some people.

They worshiped fire when they were still human. Fire was their glory. But when they were turned into Wings of the Moon, not only did they lose their conscience and their bodies, they also lost their glory. They were not afraid of fire after they lost their glory. They felt guilty towards it.

## Powers

Wings of the Moon can gather all their power together and summon a blood statue. It portrayed a man missing a head in blood-red armor with a giant axe in hand. This was one of the nine great statues of the God of Berserkers from the Fire Berserker Tribe. His broken appearance was an illusion created from the memories of the Wings of the Moon using their Blood of the Fire Berserkers.

* On N700A Advanced Mode
* On E5 MkII X N700A

**Advanced Arm** (アドバンスドアーム) is an equipment on Shinkalion N700A Advanced Mode.

## Description

Formed from dismantled portions of one of the N700A's middle cars like the rest of the Advanced Mode's add-on enhancement parts, the Advanced Arm is a large forearm extension housing a large hand with golden claws on the knuckles.

Capture Field

**Capture Field** (捕縛フィールド) is a type of energy field that serves as battlefields for the majority of battles in the Shinkalion series.

## Description

The Capture Fields are large energy spheres that serve to contain Giant Monstrous Beings in a twofold purpose; the first is to allow the Shinkalions to battle without causing too much collateral damage. The second purpose is to hide the Giant Monstrous Beings and the Shinkalions from the general public, with both being top confidential secrets known only to the SUEI.

The Capture Fields are fired from a satellite once a Giant Monstrous Being's location is confirmed, and have an optical cloaking function to keep the battle hidden from any bystanders. However, the camouflage only fools human eyes, as Kitoralsus and Teoti members are able to see through them due to their differing biology.

The inside of the Capture Fields are circular and spacious, giving the Shinkalions a large amount of space for attacking the enemy. Additionally, there are many upper terraces for flightless units to gain the high ground, as well as elevated tracks revolving along the inner walls that allow the Shinkalions, Zailiners and the Ultra Evolution Electric Freight Train to enter the field. The SUEI can alter certain conditions such as temperature and air pressure inside the fields. However, some of the Giant Monstrous Beings may also alter the terrain and climate inside to gain the advantage in battle.

Although the Capture Fields are one of the SUEI's most vital assets, they still have several downsides, being especially weak when deployed on water or when being low in power. Second, they have a time limit, and deploying multiple fields simultaneously would require a lowered energy output on each field to allow usage, further shortening the time limit. Third, despite their resilience, the wall of the fields may be damaged or even destroyed by the enemy via either physical attacks or overpowering it. Additionally, a number of Giant Monstrous Beings such as Sky High Giga Booster have been able to evade the field's deployment entirely simply by outrunning the beam.

Aero Double Smash

**Aero Double Smash** (エアロダブルスマッシュ) is the deathblow of Shinkalion N700A Nozomi Normal Mode.

## Description

The Aero Double Smash weapons are twin energy blades extending from hidden emitters embedded into the N700A's wrist shell panels, glowing in blue energy. When executed, the deathblow involves the N700A launching itself at the enemy using its back thrusters to strike the enemy with the blades. Aside from this function, the blades can also function as normal built-in swords.

The weapons were only ever used by the N700A when it was driven by Ryūji Kiyosu, and went unused when the position of its driver was given to his little brother, Tatsumi Kiyosu.

## Trivia

* The name of the weapon originates from the 'Aero Double Wing', a technical design featured on the noses of the N700A Series Shinkansen trains.
* Although the blades' energy emitters are visible in the N700A's initial design and were present in the 2017 promotional video, this deathblow was never included as part of the unit's weaponry setting until its debut in the anime.

**Genbu** is one of the antagonists and eventually an ally in Shinkansen Henkei Robo Shinkalion THE ANIMATION, and later return as an ally in Shinkansen Henkei Robo Shinkalion Z. He is voiced by J. Maxwell Powers. He first appears in Episode 02 of Season 1 and Episode 14 of Season 2.

## Personal

Genbu is one of the four Kitoralsus Agents.

### Relationship

* Byakko, Seiryu, and Suzaku (teammates)
* Iza (master)
Ex-Station Calibur

**Ex-Station Calibur** (エキスカリバー) is the weapon of Shinkalion Z E5 Hayabusa.

## Decription

The Ex-Station Caliburs are twin short swords used by the Z E5 in close combat, and can be used to generate energy barriers much like the Turnstile Sword and Turnstile Blade of the original E5 units. However, the Ex-Station Caliburs perform this function very differently, in that the weapons generate yellow streaks of energy that form a square around the enemy before the barriers rise from the markings, and that the barriers also take on the form of platform screen doors instead of ticket gates. Alternatively, the energy streaks can be used to simply illuminate a dark area, as seen when Shin used it to counteract the fog generated by Monsterized Sougyoku to allow the Z 500 to land the finishing blow.

## Appearance

The weapons are short swords with white hilts and golden blades.
Cureatsurus

**Cureatsurus** are a type of Giant Monstrous Beings in *Shinkalion*.

## Overall

The Cureatsurus are large, naturally-occuring creatures living amongst the Kitoralsus in The Underground World. Their overall appearances bare similarities to prehistoric lifeforms from Earth's distant past.

The Cureatsurus are unable to adapt to the environment of the surface world, and have to rely on wearing special orbed devices known as Cores in order to reach the surface. Destroying the cores would force them back to the Underground World.

While the creatures are mainly under Kitoralsus usage, a number of Cureatsurus have been deployed on behalf of the Teoti due to the species coming into contact with Sougyoku, one of the few surviving Kitoralsus members.

### List of Cureatsurus

* Salamander Zora (Episode 36 and 38 -  40)
* Huge Turtle (Episode 43 and Season 2 Episode 12)
* Terrestrial Salamander (Episode 46)
* Horrid Blossom (Episode 48 and Season 2 Episode 22)
* Dino Wing (Episode 52)
* Truculent Shark (Episode 53)

## Lyrics

残酷な天使のように

少年よ 神話になれ

蒼い風がいま 胸のドアを叩いても

私だけをただ見つめて

微笑んでるあなた

そっとふれるもの もとめることに夢中で

運命さえまだ知らない いたいけな瞳

だけどいつか気付くでしょうその背中には

遥か未来 めざすための羽根があること

残酷な天使のテーゼ

窓辺からやがて飛び立つ

ほとばしる熱いパトスで

思い出を裏切るなら

この宇宙を抱いて輝く

少年よ 神話になれ

## Trivia

* The song is best known as the theme of the *Neon Genesis Evangelion* franchise, and as such is used to signify the presence of *Evagelion* characters and the *Eva*-themed Shinkalion units.
ERDA Drill

**ERDA Drill** (エルダドリル) is one of the ERDA Vehicles developed by Evolution Railway Development Agency to support the Shinkalions. It can combine with Shinkalion E7 Kagayaki to form Shinkalion E7 Kagayaki Drill Form.

## Trivia

* Unusually for the franchise, which (apart from the Black Shinkalion and it's derivatives) tends to stick to realism when it comes to the mecha, the ERDA Drill, despite it's realistic stylings, is based on a fictional concept; real-life tunneling machinery have completely different systems of operation.

## Personal

### Personality

The Itsutsubashi twins are nigh-identical behavior-wise, and as such have very few quirks exclusive to each other. This does not make them unreliable however, as both of the twins are able to work fine with the rest of the team.

Avid fish enthusiasts at heart, the Itsutsubashi twins are able to tell if a fish has been caught in the wild or raised in a fish farm; they strongly prefer the former, and can get particularly heated about their meals should the topic of fish come up. This and their penchant for favoring improvised combat tactics lead to both of them coming into conflict with their teammate, Takatora Kirishima, which prevented the combination of Shinkalion Trinity before Hayato brought all three of them to their senses. Following this, the trio became much more willing to work together, and the twins were more than happy to help Takatora in acquiring fish for his recipes.

### Relationships

* Jō Itsutsubashi (twin brother)
* Takatora Kirishima (teammate)

## Trivia

* He and his brother shares both Japanese and Cantonese voice actors.

She even went so far as to beg Abuto Usui, a former underling, to save Kannagi, afterwards pleading that Camalus and Bahram execute her instead of her brother.

Prior to the SUEI's final showdown against the Teoti, Astrea shared Kannagi's belief that coexistance with humanity was out of the question, though after he saw the error of his ways she likewise became much friendlier towards her former enemies.
