==Muro's right-hand comguy==
Wears goggles. Drives away with Muro ( {{C|3}} outro ), volunteers to kill Konoko, is asked to monitor her instead ( {{C|5}} outro ). Coordinates [[Barabas]]'s raid on the [[TCTF HQ]] ( {{C|6}} ), resulting in the kidnapping of [[Shinatama]]. Stands by [[Muro]]'s side during the torture ( {{C|7}} ) and is later seen escaping the ACC complex together with Muro ( {{C|7}} ). Is not seen since in the original Oni. Fandom named him [[Kojiro]]
Wears goggles. Drives away with Muro ( {{C|3}} outro ), volunteers to kill Konoko, is asked to monitor her instead ( reveals the results of that monitoring in {{C|5}} outro ). After Muro deduces [[Shinatama]]'s existence and role, is told to "tell Barabas to retrieve <nowiki>[her]</nowiki>". Coordinates [[Barabas]]'s raid on the [[TCTF HQ]] ( {{C|6}} ), resulting in the kidnapping of [[Shinatama]]. Stands by [[Muro]]'s side during the torture ( {{C|7}} ) and is later seen escaping the ACC complex together with Muro ( {{C|8}} ). Is not seen since in the original Oni.

==Taunts and fighting style==
==Taunts and fighting style==
None of the comguys faced ingame have ninja skills (despite the tabi boots and greaves); some of the comguys, however, are only seen in cutscenes. The fighting style is the same as that of all generic males, favoring leg sweeps and dodging. Apart from the simple punches and kicks, the comguys have a "super punch" technique, which unlike their generic counterparts has fancy particles and a "Static Fist!" voiceover. They don't have a crowd-clearing move and they hardly ever use their throwing skills. The basic taunt is "You're weak!", and an [[Easter eggs|easter egg]] variant is "OK, OK, ''don't'' frog blast the vent core..." (the comguys were voiced by Doug Zartman, who also voiced the BOBs in Marathon)

==Added value==
==Added value==
One theory is that the comguys are affiliated with Mukade and the Ninja rather than with Muro and his Strikers. Thus they are expert hackers and/or assassins, and a technocratic elite, perhaps in the best position for [[Daodan]] [[Chrysalis]] implantation, along with a few "pets" of Muro's. Apart from their obvious supposed role among the Strikers, they coordinate the Ninja (a network of cooperative androids) on the battle field. Prominent comguys can act as Muro's confidents and advisors, not clearly working for Muro or Mukade. In the odd case that Mukade should "die", the comguys can provide a timely succession.
