My guess is that Takeru is a Shiba, but not of the main house like Kaoru. Assuming that the previous ShinkenRed really was his dad, my take is that Kaoru was sent away so as to be kept secure from when Doukoku came calling, and Takeru is either the younger child or an adopted child with strong mojikara. So he was raised as an heir of the Shiba clan, but he's not a true heir.

Having said that, I refuse to accept Kaoru as ShinkenRed. Yes, it's pushing the boundaries. Yes, it's a bold step, etc etc. I don't care.

Takeru is the one and only ShinkenRed! (Also doesn't help Kaoru's cause that her Jii is an old man with an annoying voice, whereas Takeru's Jii has a powerful, dramatic voice.)

Though I feel a bit bemused by Episode 6. When the Ayakashi called Takeru a liar, I thought it was referring to how he was pretending he could take care of himself without his nakama.

^ That theory sounds like Naruto with the Hyugas.

I'm curious, did anyone else guess that this was what was going on when the monster of the week called Takeru a liar? I know it certainly crossed my mind

I guess they've been dropping clues throughout the series. Like with his recklessness in his battles against Juuzou and the sniper lady in this episode. Or like whenever people make a fuss about him, he always reacts by going "stop doing that, I'm really not a big deal." I really like that, since it's a big plot twist, but if you were paying attention, all it does is reaffirm your hypothesis

Just throwing it out there since I haven't read this theory yet. He's probably Kaoru's brother or something, but what if it were something like he was her husband and he married into the family? What does that mean for him and Mako?!

Isn't it too easy to read in to what that Ayakashi said? Everything is 20/20 in hindsight. If that's what the ayakashi then they shouldn't have been targeting Takeru at all. Am I making sense?

Pretty sure it's third.

Makes sense, but I guess we're supposed to assume that Doukoku/Shittari/etc. were never really aware about the 'truths' that the Ayakashi uncovered. And for the most part, weren't most of the truths supposed to be pretty funny? (Oh, you have a mother complex! You're a klutz! And so on...)

What about GekiYellow?
She never really acted like it, but she was the team leader.
(not sure how the previous two handled their role)
I may be lying

I agree. I think people tend to overlook GekiYellow being team captain way too often. Without her, you'd just have a jungle boy, an artist, a furry, and a hairy random guy

BoukenPink half-counts, doesn't she? She was second in command, yes, but there more than a handful of episodes where she had to take charge.

Being second in command is not being leader!
