Gamaken (ガマケン, literally meaning: Strong Toad) is a giant toad that first appeared in Part II.
Appearance
Gamaken is a giant red toad with black markings on his face, arms, and legs with horn like protrusions on his head. He wears a robe similar to Gamabunta's. He keeps a sakazuki-like sheild wrapped around his back and a sasumata in his hand.
Personality
He is constantly referring to how clumsy he is, and constantly seems nervous, albeit he also says that he will always do his best. His nickname "Ken-san" gives him a sense of reliability like that of someone who will definitely be there for a timely rescue when in dire straits.
Abilities
Gamaken is a strong toad who prefers fighting with taijutsu. He wields both a Sasumata-like weapon and a shield. He is a skilled fighter he fended off many different summons while Jiraiya prepared to summon the toad elders. In the anime he could use his sasumata to create various explosions and was very agile as he evaded many attacks while fighting in an industrialized city. He had great endurance as he had taken many bite wounds for Pain's dog summons and still continued to fight.
Part II
Hunt for Itachi arc
He was first summoned by Jiraiya when he was facing the Akatsuki leader Pain and decided to use the Sage Mode. However, in order to use Sage Mode, it would take him some time to prepare it, and he could not afford to take the risk of leaving himself unprotected, so he summoned Gamaken. During the time it took for Jiraiya to prepare the technique, Gamaken was forced to face off with a great variety of Pain's animal summons, and was kicked back and forth throughout the tower they were in until he was pushed into a sewer, after which Jiraiya then told him to return as he had finally finished the preparation for his technique.
Invasion of Pain arc
Gamaken fighting Pain's summons
Gamaken, along with Gamabunta and Gamahiro, were later summoned to assist in Naruto's fight with Pain. They combatted the various animals summoned by the Animal Path until they were sent flying beyond Konoha's borders by the Deva Path.[3]
Trivia
- Though likely unofficial, it was revealed in the post-credits omake of Naruto Shippūden Episode 164 that he operates a tavern in Mount Myōboku, where other giant toads like Gamabunta and even Katsuyu frequently hang around.
