Vise Jamen

**Vise Jamen**(マンリキ邪面 *Manriki Ja-men*) is a vise-masked Jamenshi from Episode 3 of Mashin Sentai Kiramager.

## Personality

Manriki Jamen is a prideful Jamenshi who enjoys making his victims suffer with his vises as he shows no value for human life and will use simple tricks when overpowered in battle.

## Appearance

Vise Jamen has a slim, red Bechat body with a purple-colored decoration on the chest, is wearing purple gloves and boots, a silver belt with the Yodonheim buckle, and a purple/silver cape. His Jamen has the appearance of a deformed head being smushed by a giant, copper-colored vise with the crank on the right side of the Jamen. His face has exposed teeth and gums and two yellow-colored eyes.

## Biography

Needing more Dark Energy to open another Invasion Gate, another Jamenshi is sent out, wearing a Jamen based on a tool, the vise, named Vise Jamen. Vise Jamen appears in a local area where he materializes giant vises and starts placing them on the people’s heads. Once he starts turning the crank on the side of his Jamen, the vises on the humans' heads start tightening and crushes their skulls. Fortunately, the Kiramagers arrive and transform into their suits to fight against Vise Jamen. The Jamenshi summons the Bechats and once the Kiramagers fought them off, Vise Jamen threatens to tighten the vises on his victims to crush them. Fortunately, Tametomo, Kiramai Yellow, shoots at Vise Jamen, allowing Sena to speed up behind him and turn his crank the other direction, loosening the vises on the victims’ heads and allowing them to fall off. The humans manage to get away while Vise Jamen takes his crank off and uses it as a baton against the Kiramagers. He manages to beat them and even deflect their shots until Shiguru, Kiramai Blue, duels against him with the Kiramai Sword. Shiguru overpowers Vise Jamen until the Jamenshi tricks him into looking away, allowing him to place a vise on his head and tightening it, crushing his skull. Vise Jamen notes to the other Kiramagers that the vise on Shiguru’s head won’t come off without his crank and runs off.

Back at Yodonheim’s base, Caratanula shows Vise Jamen the Jamen Beast, Vise Shellga, and sends him back out to collect more Dark Energy to unleash it. Vise Jamen starts placing giant vises on human heads again to tighten them like last time. Just as he was about to turn the crank to tighten the vises, the Kiramagers appear, especially Shiguru despite the vise crushing his skull, and Sena tackles him to turn the handle and loosen the victims’ vises. The Kiramagers start fighting off the Bechats and although the vise on Shiguru’s head is crushing his skull, preventing him from transforming, he still pushes through the pain to fight back and not show his pain to the others. Seeing how Shiguru is trying to cope with the pain for the sake of trying to keep cool, Vise Jamen starts attacking him with his Crank Handle Baton and overpowers him. Juuru manages to save Shiguru and uses the lines from a movie he’s acting in to convince him to stay behind while he and the others get Vise Jamen’s handle for him.

The four Kiramagers use Kiramai Buster and Kiramai Rush Stream on Vise Jamen, causing him to drop the handle. Juuru and Vise Jamen play tug-of-war for the handle with the other three helping him out. However, Vise Jamen was able to gather enough Dark Energy to open a small Invasion Gate, unleashing Vise Shellga. Vise Jamen gets it to help him take the handle back with it’s own giant vise-based Jamen, swinging the Kiramagers off except for Juuru. The Kiramagers then summon their Mashins to help Juuru pull the handle away from Vise Jamen. After using all of their strength, the Kiramagers succeed in taking the handle away and Juuru uses it to loosen the vise on Shiguru’s head, freeing him. With the vise now off, Shiguru transforms into Kiramai Blue and gives Vise Jamen the handle back for a duel against his Kiramai Sword. Shiguru manages to win the duel and uses Blue Bright Slash to send an energy slash at Vise Jamen, destroying him.
