Members[]

Kuko Harai[]

Kuko portrait
  • MC Name: Evil Monk
  • Occupation: Buddhist Monk
  • Rap Ability: Meditation
  • Description: The heir of the Kugen Temple, a renowned Buddhist temple. At 14, he mastered an ascetic life his father, Shakku Harai, was unable to. He's badmouthed and his behavior is inappropriate for a monk yet, his faith is deep and he treasures his friends. He often makes up moralising-like remarks. He hates crowds and often acts alone. In the past, he was a part of Naughty Busters with Ichiro Yamada in Ikebukuro.


Jyushi Aimono[]

Jyushi portrait
  • MC Name: 14th Moon
  • Occupation: Visual kei Vocalist
  • Rap Ability: Courage
  • Description: A vocalist in the Visual kei band "ArgoξOrchestra" and a narcissist crybaby. He doesn't have many friends, but he cherishes his stuffed plushie pig named "Amanda", who is 42 years old. When he meets someone for the first time or is nervous, his personality changes and he talks in a pompous and exaggerated tone. When he was a student, he was harshly bullied. At the time, Hitoya Amaguni advocated for him and has since earned Jyushi's respect.


Hitoya Amaguni[]

Trivia[]

  • All of the members wear a lightning symbol somewhere on their body. They can be found as the design on Kuko's jacket, on Jyushi's earrings, and on Hitoya's collar pins.  
  • This symbol worn by Bad Ass Temple may be Norse rune "" similarly known as Sól, which directly translates to "sun". This would make sense with the imagery of the sun seen behind their symbol at times. It contrasts with Jyushi's moon imagery, and aids the idea of Kuko's sun imagery (supported by his solo Young Gun of The Sun).
    • A theory related to this says that Kuko represents the sun, Jyushi represents the moon, and Hitoya represents the star(s).
  • Bad Ass Temple has multiple varying religious symbols seen, some noticeable ones being Buddhist prayer beads (in Kuko's pocket, as well as the hands behind Bad Ass Temple), a circular shrine symbol (on the hand), and the dragon. In Buddhism, the dragon is affiliated with protection, and may be referencing a Nagaraja.
