Kanehachi's design is based in an octopus with anchors. This is, six of his tentacles are on his legs part (making him a multilegged Medarot), and the other two are his arm parts. Each of his arm parts are tied with anchors, which are able to make his enemies get held and stop their movement (using [[Hold]]). His head part is also able to hold his enemies, and its name, ''Hachimaki'', is based on [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hachimaki japanese headbands].
Kanehachi resembles a red octopus with 6 tentacles in the place of legs and the remaining two forming the arms. The arms have large anchors attached on wires, which Kanehachi can fire like grappling hooks to slow the opponent down.

Kanehachi (カネハチ), known in english as Tentaclam, is an octopus-type Medarot from the original Medarot game.

Description

Kanehachi resembles a red octopus with 6 tentacles in the place of legs and the remaining two forming the arms. The arms have large anchors attached on wires, which Kanehachi can fire like grappling hooks to slow the opponent down. Its name is printed on its forehead in the form of the kanji symbol for 8 (八, "hachi"), with a smaller symbol above it (¬, read as "kane"). It also has a design around its head representing a headband (or hachimaki), which are often worn by fishermen in Japan.

Its model number CLA most likely comes from a corruption of Kraken, which is the Medal its parts are most compatible with. The "clam" in its english name Tentaclam comes solely from its model number, as the Medarot itself has nothing to do with clams.
