Strategy/Usage
Like the other Ultra Souls, Sarukani has significantly different stats between Normal (spammable) and Evolved Form (high performance), both of which can be used effectively depending on the situation.
Normal Form
Sarukani can be used as a generalist or against Angels he outranges, but his use is recommended mostly against Zombies.
Sarukani allows you to complete certain stages with a "just Zombie killer" approach, meaning that you just spawn him, Polevaulter and Li'l Flying to clear tough Zombie stages, which is ideal for Miss Haka and Zir Zeal.
When used as support, he can still help greatly with his zombie killer ability and the consistent DPS, while outranging all common zombies except Cadaver Bear and Zamelle.
Evolved Form
Rock Revengers can be used to great effect against enemies who weaken and/or slow, most prominently Winged Pigge, Sunfish Jones and Croakley. In addition, their stats can make them a viable generalist or angel killer, although there are few situations in which they can do something that the unevolved form cannot when facing Zombies.
True Form
His True Form can notoriously tank around 6 hits from Daboo of the Dead, thanks to an increase in health. Additionally, the time between attacks is decreased, which helps against Zombies.

Stats

Catfruit Evolution
Appearance
- Normal Form: A cat holding two branches with kaki or persimmon fruits on their end and a monkey on its head. Attacks by having the monkey take and throw a fruit.
- Evolved Form: A stage on wheels with four humanoid cats "rock and rolling". There is a cross with the fruits on it, with another cat tied with chains onto it.
- True Form: Sarukani and the band now have different appearances, along with including every pop trend (Modern, Rock, Reggae, Chinese Folk, Karaoke). They also have a unique set of colours to accompany themselves and Saru is no longer chained up on the cross, instead, he is on a separate stage of his own. There is a large depiction of the kaki/persimmon above this stage. The rolling podium also has many more speakers behind the One-Hit Wonders.
Trivia
- This character is based on the Japanese folktale "Saru-Kani" ("The Crab and the Monkey"), which is about a monkey who kills a crab by throwing persimmons (or kaki, there are many versions) on it and the crab's offspring's revenge.
- The Rock Revengers are a reference to the rock band "Kiss".
- Each member also references a character in the original folktale: the bee (left), the nut (right), the crab's offspring (center/lead singer), the mortar (battery) and the monkey (tied on the cross). For some reason, the last main character, the cow dung, is missing (which is probably okay).
- The Rock Revengers were likely designed to counter Daboo of the Dead in Parade of the Dead, a stage with Angels and Zombies, where the boss is immune to status effects and slows cat units (100%), unless they are immune to slowness, of course.
