Maruhage Empire - Divisions

Divisions

In Chapter 1 of the series, an outline is shown revealing the organization of the Chromedome Empire under Czar Baldy Bald the 4th. For some reason though they stand for hunting hair, there are members that are allowed to have hair either a privilege or consists with the random story of the series.

  • Emperor: The supreme ruler of the Chromedome Empire, this position is the one who controls every other force in the empire. Whatever he says is law. In this era, the emperor is Czar Baldy Bald the 4th, most notable for the control of the Hair Hunt to make everyone under his rule bald.
  • Maruhage Empire Four Heavenly Kings (マルハーゲ四天王 Maruhage Shitenou) / Chrome Dome Empire Big Four: Taking orders directly from Czar Baldy Bald himself, these four are the most powerful Hair Hunters in the empire. These members rule from specific locations throughout the empire (except Kittypoo, who travels around the world on his own). While extremely powerful in themselves, each of these four have a vast team of warriors under their command, similar if not more effective than an average Hair Hunter. The loyalty of these four vary from member to member: while powerful and evil members such as Purupuu (Kitty-Poo) and OVER have no mercy in either killing or in ripping hair out and are extremely loyal to the Empire, Halekulani is more concerned with his own profits and in making as much money as possible. On the other hand, Gunkan (Captain Battleship), while seemingly loyal to the 4th, finds his own ulterior motives in taking out enemies to the empire as well as Hair Hunters! His motivation: defeat the Hair Hunters, yet at the same time force his rival Bo-bobo to take the blame.
  • Assassination Corp: On a level similar to the Four Heavenly Kings, these assassins take out the enemies of the empire by any means necessary. The leader of this squad, Nenchaku, is a merciless killer who is seen by the 4th as one of his most powerful warriors. It is also believed that teen Hajikelist Rice used to work as an assassin associated with this unit.
  • Hair Hunt Coordination Headquarters: Very little is known of this division, but it is assumed that this is the leadership controlling the Hair Hunt blocks and coordinating the leaders. Teru, the most powerful commander of the Hair Hunters, is a member of this division.
  • Mr. Ooiwa: Little is known who or what this man is, seeing how he never appeared or what connection he has to Tsurulina or the Maruhage Empire.
  • Hair Hunters Divisions A-G: The seven most powerful Hair Hunt blocks are grouped together and are considered the main leaders of the block-by-block Hair Hunt. Similar to the seven most powerful Hair Hunters from one-hundred years ago (of whom several block leaders may or may not have a strange coincidence in their selection), the seven most powerful leaders come together to discuss the progress of the Hair Hunt and any problems encountered along the way. These leaders and blocks are as follows:
    • A Block: The most powerful of the Hair Hunters, it is led by the gelatenous Tokoroten no Suke (Jelly Jiggler) from an amusement park grown by Bo-bobo out of chopsticks. (originally A-Block had no headquarters and took over the park since Tennosuke thought that would be easier) After he is defeated, Tokoroten eventually joins Bo-bobo's resistance. Although other versions of "A-Block" are the most powerful (such as in the Former Maruhage and Neo Maruhage), some suspect that Z-Block is really the most powerful of the Maruhage Empire controlled by Tsurulina the Fourth. (being food-based connects him to former leader Hanpen)
    • B Block: Led by Tsurun, it is destroyed by Gunkan's assistant Suzu during his enigmatic battle against the Empire while employed as a Heavenly King. The former leader of this block was Lambada.
    • C Block: Ruled from the Aitsuhage Tower headquarters by Geha the Gale, this block also employed the mysterious Babylon servant Softon for a period. (the wind powers connect Geha to former leader Jeda the Wind God)
    • D Block: Led by cosplayer Kitemasu, no other information known. The former leader this block was Rem. It seems that they connected because they both like sleeping.
    • E Block: Led by a hooded man, no other information known. The former leader this block was Combat Blues.
    • F Block: Led by a hooded man, no other information known. The former leader this block was Ujikin TOKIO.
    • G Block: Led by the effeminate makeup-wearing Hagen, he would eventually become the first major victim of Bo-bobo's rebellion. (his effeminate nature connects Hagen to former leader Rose-Lily Kikunojō)
  • Sales Department: Although a government organization, the Hair Hunters are always trying to maintain finances as well as make profits in various business ventures undertaken. Through various ventures such as the video stores in Aitsuhage Tower, the sale of Hair Hunt apparel (such as uniforms or gear) and even the running and maintenance of two amusement parks (A-Block park, which is later replaced by Neo Hair-Hunt Land MAX, and Hallelujah Land), the government is able to receive needed profits to continue effectively ruling without dissent.
  • Propeganda Department: Always in need of putting their best face forward to the public, the Hair Hunters effectively use propaganda for both human relations as well as for recruitment. Appearing in the popular magazines in the empire, they are able to show themselves as a more righteous organization as well as interest though who wish to join their ranks, especially to take down threats such as Bo-bobo.
  • Public Relations: Certain members of the empire are required to handle the day-to-day relations with the citizens as well as keeping them informed on the latest matters regarding the emperor and the Hair Hunt. Offices in various cities conduct the interaction between the government and the people, including holding the recruitment of more Hair Hunters and day-to-day paperwork maintenance. The Maruhage Empire's television channels are also believed to be in this department, with officials in certain blocks creating various content and programming that both entertains and propagates the messages of their emperor. Characters such as Pagya (recruitment official) and Kuunyan (messenger) are believed to be part of this department.
  • Hair Hunters Divisions H-Z: The nineteen Hair Hunt blocks below G-Block continue the work of the Hair Hunt in what is considers the weaker sections of the empire. Although considered not as powerful as the main seven blocks and mostly consistent of ordinary Hair Hunters and their leadership, they continue the hair-based policies on a local level. Key blocks in this set include:
    • H Block: Led by Maetel, this team is also known as the Wig Gang for their practice in covering their bald appearance with long-haired wigs. Their appearance has made enemies with the Hajike Gang based in the area.
    • M Block: Led by Boss Bob, who was quickly defeated by Hatenko.
    • L Block: Puppet Lad is a member of this block.
    • Z Block: A strange enigma within the Hair Hunt organizations, Z Block would normally be considered the weakest of the Hair Hunt blocks due to being at the end of the alphabet. But in reality, this block is the strongest of all letter-based blocks, partially as a means to eliminate those who wish to start from "the weakest"! Normal soldiers here are considered equal to the strength (and stupidity) of A-Block leader Tokoro Tennosuke, while the elite warriors are some of the most powerful (and confusing) beings in the Hair Hunt! (such as a TV named Radioman and the game playing vice-leader Kibahage) At the top of the entire leadership for the block is the tiny white "dog" Dengaku Man, who combines his fierce power with his charm and cuteness. After the fall of the block, Dengaku Man eventually befriends and joins Bo-bobo.
  • Other Notable Divisions
    • River Block:Also known as "River Block" it is led by Kodebun, a fishing expert.
    • Robo Block: The guardians of a beach-front property area (the manga has it as a separate block, but the anime makes it the front door of Z Block), this block is made up of four robots working together as a team to take down any invaders and use their teamwork to achieve victory.
    • Hajike Block: A block formerly closed down by the leader of the Maruhage Empire, it is the legendary block of Hajike warriors. Great Hajikelists, both working for the empire or fighting against it, search for this block both to fight against other Hajikelists as well as gain some assistance from some of the warriors or items that can be found here. The leader of this block is Rokka, but he seems rather ineffective compared to the other Hajikelists of the block. Former assassin Rice lives here after Bo-bobo saves him and even Tennosuke lived here for a short time before joining Bo-bobo's team.
