Fist Demons
From Power Rangers Universe
The Three Fist Demons (三拳魔, San Kenma) are the opposing force to the Fist Sages, based at the Confrontation Beast Mountain (臨獣山, Rinjū Zan) which the Confrontation Beast Hall is built on. The three who composed this group were all originally human under the teachings of Brusa E along with the future Fist Sages. But their opposing ideals of fear and rage as an ideal source of power, combined with Maku's grudge against their mentor, led to them mastering the Beast-Man Wicked Body Change that turned them into their current forms prior to murdering Brusa E and becoming founding masters of the Akugata itself, with a high need for mass amounts of Confrontation Ki as a result of their transformation and level of power. Losing the Fierce-Confrontation Rebellion, the Fist Demons were killed by the Fist Sages using Virtuous Beast Sword after sacrificing their humanity in the process. Once their bodies were sealed away, the Fist Demons' souls were each sealed within a ring of the Fist Demon Bracelet (拳魔の腕輪, Kenma no Udewa) created by the Fist Sages, which serves as a medium for the three to communicate with others at certain times.
But every 5,000 years, the Bracelet's power could be sealed if the item is brought to sacred grounds of the Beast Origin Village. Miki attempted this task but Makirika's interference allowed the item to fall into Rio's possession, using it to speak to the Fist Demons. After obtaining the three final True Poison fangs from Braco, Rio began to resurrect the Fist Demons, starting with Kata, to train him. Mele, fearing for Rio's sanity due to Kata's training, managed to revive Rageku for Rio to train from instead. Both Kata and Rageku have no intent to fight again and saw Rio and Mele as the ones to carry their legacy in their stead. Maku however, whose resurrection was much harder to perform as his heart was removed from his body, refused to retire and upon being revived, took over and declared a second Fierce-Confrontation Rebellion with Rageku and Kata once more following Maku out of fear. In the end, all three are killed once again as Long had planned. However, as Jan Kandou now possesses the Fist Demons' Bracelet, the three Fist Demons offer their aid, appearing to the Gekirangers in their original human forms, to master their fighting styles to end Long's evil once and far all.

[edit] Sky Fist Demon Kata
Sky Fist Demon Kata (空の拳魔カタ, Sora no Kenma Kata, 1, 11-34, 49) (voiced by Rokuro Naya and human form played by Keizo Yabe) is a grand master of the Confrontation Beast Hawk-Fist (臨獣ホーク拳, Rinjū Hōkuken), whose fighting style focuses on aerial martial arts and genjustsu attacks on the opponent's psyche with a halberd named the Gale Sword (疾風の剣, Shippū no Tsurugi) as his weapon. His source of power comes from hatred and malice. Kata is the first of the Fist Demons to reveal the location of his tomb, a large stone protected by a Fierce Ki barrier erected by Sha-Fu on a wind-ridden summit of a mountain bombarded by lighting. Kata was impressed with Rio's ideals of power as absolute and success at reviving him. Upon his rebirth, Kata awards Rio by giving him training which would prove the right of the "lion cub" (若獅子, Wakajishi) to lead the Confrontation Beast Hall. However, Kata's motto is "There is training in a battle to the death" (死闘の中に修行あり, Shitō no naka ni shugyō ari). Though Kata is defeated, his life is spared by Rio, whom Kata approved as his student, teaching him the means to acquire Confrontation Ki from his malice and hatred. However, Kata's brutal training methods entices fear in Mele for Rio's well being. With Rageku resurrected, Kata gives her his blessing in training Rio before departing to Confrontation Beast Mountain on stand by. Both he and Rageku intend to celebrate their student's victory over the Gekirangers' defeat by destroying the city, until they sense Rio's defeat by Super GekiRed. Kata vainly pleaded with the enraged Rio not to revive Maku, who beats him and Rageku up after his rebirth. During the burning of the Beast Origin Village, Kata faces the Gekirangers as he presented the boulder that the Fist Sages are turned into and enrages the Super Gekirangers and GekiViolet into fighting him, withstanding their strongest attacks. But Jan mananges to overcome Kata's illusions, enraging the Fist Demon to enlarge and battle Herculean Giant GekiFire and Beast-Fist Giant GekiTohja Wolf, who are no match for him. Kata is about to kill them when Beast-Fist God SaiDain charges in and Kata is the first to fall to Beast-Fist Giant God SaiDaiOh's blade, exploding in a burst of golden energy. His Confrontation Ki is transferred to Ran Uzaki in the finale by Rio, who utilizes it to merge her own style with his, unifying both Beast Fist styles.
Before entering battle, Kata says, "Hatred is power givingly born. Sky Fist Demon, Confrontation Beast Hawk-Fist's Kata!" (憎しみが力を生む。空の拳魔 臨獣ホーク拳のカタ！, Nikushimi ga chikara o umu. Sora no Kenma, Rinjū Hōkuken no Kata!).

[edit] Sea Fist Demon Rageku
Sea Fist Demon Rageku (海の拳魔ラゲク, Umi no Kenma Rageku?, 1, 15-35, 49) (voiced by Naoko Kouda and human form played by Yuki Ono) is a grand mistress of the Confrontation Beast Jelly-Fist (臨獣ジェリー拳, Rinjū Jerīken), a style that allows its user to let opponents' physical attacks pass right through, neutralizing them. Her training is based on jealousy and envy, targeting Master Sha-Fu, whom she refers to as "Darling" (ダーリン, Dārin) as he spurred her romantic feelings for him in the past. She addresses other people of lower status using the informal "-chan" (ちゃん, "-chan") suffix, as opposed to "-san" (さん, "-san"). Rageku is the second of the Fist Demons to be revived, with Mele's help, buried at the bottom of the deep-sea beyond light and sound. She instructs both Rio and Mele, teaching them to use their envy to become much more powerful. Both she and Kata intended to celebrate their student's victory over the Gekirangers' defeat by destroying the city, until they sensed Rio's defeat by Super GekiRed. Rageku vainly pleaded with the enraged Rio not to revive Maku, who beats her and Kata up after his rebirth.
During the Beast Origin Village incident, Rageku uses her power to send the Gekirangers, Rio, and Mele back into the Edo era before incinerating the area in an attempt to destroy Beast-Fist God SaiDain. She later battled GekiChopper and was nearly killed by him after he managed to overcome her defenses. Though she evaded death at the hands of the Gekirangers, she is eventually murdered by Long as Maku battles the Gekirangers; turned into a puddle of her former self upon realizing Long's true nature as he takes her broken staff as proof of her demise. Her Confrontation Ki is transferred to Retsu Fukami by Rio, who utilizes it to merge her style with his own, unifying the two schools.
Before entering battle, Rageku says, "Envy is power bestowed. Sea Fist Demon, Confrontation Beast Jelly-Fist's Rageku!" (嫉妬が力をくれる。海の拳魔 臨獣ジェリー拳のラゲク！, Shitto ga chikara o kureru. Umi no Kenma, Rinjū Jerīken no Rageku!)

[edit] Land Fist Demon Maku
Land Fist Demon Maku (大地の拳魔マク ,Daichi no Kenma Maku, 1, 22-35, 49) (voiced by Hidekatsu Shibata and human form played by Jun Watanabe) is a grand master of the Confrontation Beast Bear-Fist (臨獣ベアー拳 ,Rinjū Beāken), relying on burning rage to give him tremendous Fury Confrontation Ki, allowing Maku to have reigned over the Confrontation Beast Hall as its leader and greatest warrior, transferring a bit of his power into selected servants. He is even acknowledged by the Fist Sages as the most powerful Beast-Fist user. In the past, he and Sha-Fu were friends until their master, Brusa Ee, picked Sha-Fu as his successor. Sha-Fu refused and asked for Maku to become the successor instead, with the latter infuriated that he was not chosen by his own talents but by another. Since then, Maku vowed to become the strongest being on Earth, resulting with Maku meeting Long and then finding the Confrontation Beast-Fist Akugata which value his ideals as well as being the one responsible for Brusa's death. Though he was originally to become the Destroyer as Long planned, Maku's defeat in the Fierce-Confrontation Rebellion ruined that as the Fist Demon's body was placed within the depths of Confrontation Beast Hall behind a sealed door. But the door was unsealed when Rio attempted to resurrect him against Kata and Rageku's wishes. However, he learns that the final True Poison fang alone is not able to revive him as the Fist Sages removed Maku's heart, a ruby called the Ikigimo (イキギモ（生肝） ,Ikigimo, literally "Life Organ") to make sure his resurrection would be impossible. By accident, the item ended up in the possession of Alice Nanboku, labeled the "Ocean's Heart." Once Mele obtained the item, Rio places it back into Maku's body before resurrecting the Fist Demon successfully. But upon being revived, as the other Fist Demons feared, Maku expresses disgust with the changes that occurred while he was dead and overthrows the "brat" (小僧 ,kozō), Rio, resuming his role as leader and declaring a new Fierce-Confrontation Rebellion.
But his arrogance at refusing to teach Rio eventually leads to Rio obtaining the Fury Confrontation Ki on his own and going to the Beast Origin Village to perfect his power so he can destroy Maku. However, Maku is aware of Rio's treason and where he is going, only to be halted by Long. Maku arrives at the Beast Origin Village to kill Rio, only to be further enraged by Rio's disrespect for him in spite of their current differences in power. Both that and the Fist Sages' scolding for his betrayal and flaws in ideals resulted with Maku enlarging himself to kill them before the Gekirangers attempt to fight him in vain with Herculean Giant GekiFire, gaining the Fist Demon's attention with their disrespect to him. But the Fist Sages intervened so the Gekirangers can stop Rio from getting to Beast-Fist God SaiDain, all ending up being defeated and sealed into a boulder so Maku can siphon most of their life energy in the form of water droplets, drinking it after Kata's death to become even more powerful. But Maku's obbession was his undoing when he goes after the Gekirangers to prove to Rio his superiorty once and for all after Rio proves able to match him blow for blow when from the power he gained from SaiDain's Beast Power Blossom. In the final battle, Maku fights Beast-Fist Giant God SaiDaiOh to a standstill, only to be destroyed by SaiDaiGekiFire while refusing to accept this defeat. His Confrontation Ki is transferred to Jan Kandou by Rio in the finale, who utilizes it to merge both Fierce and Confrontation styles together and unifying the two schools.
Before entering battle, Maku says, "Rage is the power to dominate. Land Fist Demon, Confrontation Beast Bear-Fist's Maku!" (怒りで力を司る。大地の拳魔 臨獣ベアー拳のマク！ ,Ikari de chikara o tsukasadoru. Daichi no Kenma, Rinjū Beāken no Maku!).
