Jural Seijin

The Juralians (ジュラル星人, Juraru seijin) are a race of alien invaders who have come to Earth to steal its precious natural resources. Their technology is developed far beyond Earth's current level. The main type of Jural seen is the purple kind with tentacles for limbs. They are tall alien like creatures with one green cyclopian eye and a strange primary colored emblem on their chest. These Jural soldiers serve as the series' mooks and are the most common foe that Ken will fight.

Each Jural possesses the unique ability to disguise their entire body as another human being. They can copy their details and even change in height. When in an untransformed state, they can fire lasers from their eyes which erases living matter it touches. Sometimes this beam can emit from the emblem located on their chest. The Jurals go to great lengths to ensure victory of their plans. This led to one disguising as human woman and marrying to get closer to a naval officer who had knowledge of secret naval information in episode 53.

Jurals are not completely without emotion though. In episode 8, a Jural designated as X-6 was to disguise as a woman and get close to Ken to assassinate him. However, she grew feelings for Ken after he saved her life from a falling tree. Unfortunately, the other Jural Seijin do not tolerate failure and erased her shortly after they located her. Ken mourned her loss.

Jural Seijin are very supportive and vocal of their leader, General Maou.

Background
The Juralians pride themselves on having scientific capabilities that are 500 years ahead of Earth's. But at least 50 years before the year 2070, Planet Jural became inhospitable, causing the Juralians to find a new home. They wandered around space looking for a planet to call their new home. Ultimately, they discovered Earth, which they immediately began to invade.

Their situation is comparable to the alien race knowns as the "Baltans" from the Ultraman franchise. Since Ultraman aired earlier and was set in a different time period, it is possible that the Juralians copied their actions, due to their similar situation.

The Jural Seijin's system consists of General Maou, who is in overall command of Juralians, and the general Juralians, who spend their time fighting, researching and developing weapons, spying, and doing miscellaneous jobs such as being members of the Jural Troupe. This is the reason why there are no other ranks or separate organizations other than General Maou and the general Juralians. Therefore, subordinate orders are also given directly from General Maou to the general Juralians, and General Maou himself sometimes conducts battles and espionage.

Ecology
Some of the characteristics of Juralians are:


 * 1) Their single eye can fire murderous rays (In the first episode and in the opening theme, they are emitting rays of light from a target on their chests)
 * 2) Their skin is completely different from humans, with spiky antlers (?) on the top of the head and shoulders
 * 3) Juralians have model numbers/letters with each one having an individual number; J Models seem to transform into human males, X Models into human females, and the K Models into a fake Ken. It is unclear if the Juralians themselves are male or female
 * 4) They have tentacled arms capable of dexterous manipulation, such as grasping objects, handling guns, riding motorcycles with dexterity, and operating keyboards
 * 5) A chest pattern with a color scheme similar to that of the Royal Air Force roundels, like a target
 * 6) A waist as tight as a top model's
 * 7) They do not appear to have any reproductive organs
 * 8) Their legs are shaped like their arms, giving them no sense of balance
 * 9) They cannot be captured by mirrors, binoculars, viewfinders, or other artificial optical devices. The same is true if they are transformed into a human. They can be seen through a sheet of glass. They also appear to be visible to cameras because they appear on monitors
 * 10) They can breathe underwater without equipment. In fact, they look more lively in the water
 * 11) The sound of a harmonica or the rhythm of a Barican note gives them a life-threatening headache
 * 12) They have jumped 500 years ahead of humanity
 * 13) More resistant to physical damage such as bullets and falls than humans, but vulnerable to chemical damage such as factory effluents
 * 14) Upon death, their corpses instantly turn into gas (with exceptions such as melting into mush or falling down)
 * 15) They often have a lisp and pronounce Japanese incorrectly
 * 16) They do not attack Ken while he is in disguise, and even when they find out where Ken lives, they do not ambush him, but they appear in front of him and announces that they will come to the top of Mt. Fuji
 * 17) In some cases, they are stronger when they transform into a human (Hoshi, Delinquent, Mattak Tsuyoshi, etc.). In other words, they are doomed when they revert to their Juralian form
 * 18) They love to be "indirect". It is thought to be imprinted in the DNA of all Juralians
 * 19) They are either completely naked or wearing some kind of full-body tights over their bare skin. Either way, they are not wearing pants

Here are weapons that symbolize their scientific power, 500 years ahead of their time:


 * Combat Flying Saucer for Water, Land, and Air
 * There have no wings, thrusters, AMBACs, screws, tires, or any other devices that convert power into a driving force, and humanity's science power can not determine the power source or driving method. The only weapon on board is a laser beam that can be attacked with a time delay, and can be optionally equipped with a large Buddha control device, a poison gas chamber, and a tractor beam. There is also a large flying saucer dedicated to General Maou that functions as an underwater base and headquarters on a daily basis


 * Smoked Discharged Missile (Humanitarian missile)
 * Kichigai Record
 * Device or constitution that can mimic a human
 * This even defies the law of conservation of mass, which allows an adult Juralian to mimic a human child, or three Juralians to mimic a human


 * A fashion sense that no human being could ever imagine

These may have been 500 years ahead of humanity, but they were only as strong as ants in the face of Chargeman Ken's Alpha Gun and Volga Bomb and his favorite machine, the Sky Rod.
