Kumasogami (in Japanese: クマソガミ) is a major antagonist in the 1994 Japanese film Yamato Takeru.

He was suit portrayed by "Hurricane" Ryū Hariken, who also portrayed Guilala, King Ghidorah, and Battra.

Appearance[]

Kumasogami is a large three-eyed humanoid comprising of rock and magma cracks. He is able to morph his body into anything he desires, such as turning his arms into a sword or bow.

Biography[]

Kumasogami was a deity worshiped by the barbaric kingdom of Kumaso, sealed away within a volcano. Once in a while, the monster would emerge from the volcano and was offered a young maiden as a sacrifice to please his wrath.

When Prince Ousu and his followers were imprisoned by warlord Kumaso Takeru, Oto was chosen to be the next sacrifice for their god. Refusing to turn her over, Ousu intercepted the ritual at the temple, defeating Kumaso and his minions. Ousu rescues Oto from the alter, only for Kumasogami to emerge and attack. At first, the battle against the Lava God seemed to be futile, as Kumasogami easily broke through his containment gate and killed most of Ousu's men by morphing his arms into a bow and sword. When Kumasogami was about to finish off Oto, Ousu's sacred jewel, the Yasakani no Magatama, gave Ousu the ability to shoot lasers from his eyes, allowing him to destroy Kumasogami.

Trivia[]

  • Early concept art shows Kumasogami was originally going to have spider legs rather than being bipedal.
  • A monster called Dororin appears in Godzilla Island which is a repainted figure of Kumasogami.
