Giff Junior (ギフジュニア, Gifu Junia) are the foot soldiers of Deadmans in Kamen Rider Revice. They are summoned using the Giff Junior Vistamp.

History

The Giff Juniors are the footsoldiers of the demon worshipping group, Deadmans. Unlike ordinary Deadmen, they do not contain genetic information of an animal that resides in a Vistamp, only bearing the name of Giff whom the Deadmans worship. The demon hidden in the humans can be released by the power of Giff Junior Vistamp. Most Giff Juniors fight with their bare hands, but some have weapons such as swords.

Personality

Although created from humans, Giff Juniors are just mindless grunts that follows orders by the given Deadman summoner. But, they do show attentive awareness on what and which target to attack.

A Giff Junior is the result of an inner demon being released from a human's body by the power of the Giff Junior Vistamp. Although it is a Deadman that does not have the genetic information of a particular species, it bears the name of Giff. Giff Juniors can also be produced by the Giff Junior Vistamp itself when it is stamped.

Notes

• The Giff Juniors' design features a crumpled paper motif, designed to parallel the Deadmans' origami motif.
• The Giff Juniors' skeleton motif calls back to that of the Shocker Combatmen.
  • Additionally, their "Gii!" grunting references the Shocker Combatmen's "Yee!"/"Eee!" cry.

The Giff Junior army costumes.

• In Episode 12, when a large army of Giff Juniors were gathered, some of them are less decorated and cheaply made. This is likely because of the minimal amount of Giff Junior suits available during filming.
