Sanjuro (サンジューロ) alternatively spelled Sanjuuro, is a stag beetle-type Medarot who first appears in Medarot DS.

Description

Sanjuro is heavily based on a stag beetle. However, his design is also based on a samurai about to draw his sword. Unlike other KWG-type Medarots, Sanjuro can use Thunder instead, as well as Commander instead of Scan. Sanjuro's Sword attack is actually as powerful as a STG-type's, since it's a Berserking attack this time.

In later games its right arm part (Sword Draw/Battou Sword) was changed to Charge Blade.

In the games

In Medarot DS

Sanjuro first appears early in the game, possibly as a Medarot still in testing during the Kuwagata Version. Azuma Amakura encounters it with his Medarot Rokusho during this moment after sneaking into the lab. Although Rokusho desires to switch his Medaparts out for Sanjuro's, they are chased out before they can.

Later in the game, the Rubberrobo Gang take over a manufacturing building for Medaparts, and Sakekaasu with thier new boss Conflict destroys Azuma's Rokusho, leaving the Medal behind (although, in game, you keep the Tinpet you attached the Rokusho parts to). After the villains flee in a UFO, Dr. Aki, along with Dr. Nae, Kohaku, and an unnamed scientist appear and give Azuma the Sanjuro model's Medaparts and a new Tinpet. This allows Azuma's Rokusho to be reborn as Sanjuro.

Sanjuro (or Juu as he prefers to be called) initally didn't listen to Azuma and wrote him off as selfish and weak, but later on he shows that he is actually helpful and polite later on.

In Medarot DUAL

He is seen with Ikki Tenryou, it is unknown if he is Ikki's Rokusho or not.

In the manga

In Medarot DS

In the manga for Medarot DS, Sanjuro is owned by Kohaku Himuro. He nicknames him Juu.

His arm, instead of バットウ, is spelled as バットウソード Battou Sword.
