With Shinobi Volume episode 1 and Samurai Volume episode 2 both referring to this group now as the "Yami no Jaki Gundan" (instead of just "Yami no Jaki-dono"), think we should move the page to "Dark Jaki Corps"? Or at least to "Jaki Corps" since Japanese Wikipedia leaves the "Yami no" part out (and adds in a "Predacon" at the beginning)? Or... should we wait for a few more episodes to come out to see what they're called in those before all else? --Sabrblade 17:42, 12 August 2013 (EDT)

I personally was going to wait till they released the toy so that we could see the packaging text for it, but if you want to move this, knock yourself out. Mimi 17:47, 12 August 2013 (EDT)
Hmm, that does sound like a reasonable idea. --Sabrblade 17:50, 12 August 2013 (EDT)
Admittedly, we probably will only get "Jaki Gattai", which is the description for Goradora and not the actual team name. Mimi 18:00, 12 August 2013 (EDT)
It could be written in the bio on the back of the box. --Sabrblade 18:21, 12 August 2013 (EDT)

FYI, everyone, depending on the name given in the packaging bio (since the front is of no help), I'm planning to move this to (Dark) Imp (Corps). Does anybody have issues with this naming? Mimi 00:26, 24 August 2013 (EDT)

By now, I think "Jaki" has become the term the Wiki will use (Sipher even said to keep it back on the Predacon talk page), but I do support a move to "Dark Jaki Corps". --Sabrblade 00:30, 24 August 2013 (EDT)
I think Hydra said that "Imp" would be his preferred, so if it comes to a vote I back that and its permutations.KrytenKoro 13:54, 24 August 2013 (EDT)

Confusingly, Samurai Episode 3 refers to these as "Yami no Jaki-dono" again. The box says (roughly) what Mimi thought it would - "Jaki Go-tai Gattai" (Five Jaki Combination). Their bio just refers to them as "Jaki". Personally, I lean towards calling them "Jaki" or "Dark Jaki Corps"... But I'm not too bothered by calling them imps. I just think Jaki is more distinct (not that we get OTHER imps a lot in TF...). Other than that, the only real useful info from the bio is that they're drones, and that they're controlled by the Four Oni (the limb bots) and Dragotron (the core bot). Only for Dorara does it specify WHO controls them, but that's enough evidence for me to step back from my earlier position. The bio doesn't specifically say whether there are more than one of each type of drone... But we know that they keep getting destroyed, so the Four Oni must at least be able to summon a new one once their previous drone has been destroyed.--BraveMax 02:36, 5 September 2013 (EDT)
