History
Kamen Rider Hibiki
It was stationed at an abandoned Shinto shrine in Saruhashi. By ripping off one of its many tails, Bakeneko can produce a one-tailed copy of itself. Hibiki had a hard time fighting the copies, even in Kurenai form, before they retreated once one of the copies was killed. The Oni eventually find out the location of the Bakeneko. Hibiki and Todoroki battle the massive number of copies, with Kurenai Form defeating most of the Bakeneko copies and Todoroki killing the rest with his Ongeki Da Rakurai. Once its copies are killed, the real Bakeneko attacks, overpowering Hibiki until the Disc Animals came to his aid and allowing Kurenai Hibiki to kill Bakeneko with his Ongeki Da: Shakunetsu Shinku no Kata.
During the start of Orochi, a pack of Bakeneko appeared at Hatoyama, destroyed by Armed Hibiki's Armed Saber. A group of Bakeneko appeared at Tatebayashi in episode 44, destroyed by Armed Hibiki's Kishin Kakusei and Ibuki's Shippuu Issen. The surviving one did managed to kill Zanki. Some Bakeneko appeared at Saitama, among the Makamou destroyed by Armed Hibiki's Kishin Kakusei, while others were another Nagatoro and were dealt with by Todoroki. At Sayama, Hibiki fought a pair of Bakeneko while in human form, defeating them with his Kibojutsu Rekkaken attack.
A Bakeneko appeared in the Hyper Battle DVD special, destroyed by Asamu using Armed Hibiki's Kishin Kakusei.
