The Shuumatsuban (Japanese: 終末番 Shuumatsu-ban) is a secret Inazuman organization under the Yashiro Commission.[1][2]
Sayu is described as its resident ninja, although all Shuumatsuban members appear to practice ninjutsu.[1][3]
Their headquarters is a ninja village.[3]
Activities[]
The Shuumatsuban works to keep Inazuma safe.[4][5] Their duties appear to revolve around espionage, intelligence gathering, and assassinations, which require them to utilize a wide range of skills, including combat. They are led by the head of the Kamisato Clan and Yashiro Commissioner, currently Kamisato Ayato. Shuumatsuban members report directly to Ayato,[6] but they may answer to others in exceptional circumstances.[7]
Members receive a monthly salary. Sayu's salary for one month is 200,000 Mora.[8]
Membership[]
Most of the Shuumatsuban are orphans who were taken in and raised by the organization starting at a young age, such as Sayu. As a result, Shuumatsuban members are highly loyal.[6] Momoyo is one such member,[9] and while Sayu is known more for her laziness, she is still loyal to the Shuumatsuban.[2]
The identities of most Shuumatsuban members are highly classified and kept secret from the vast majority of people, to the point that even those who die while carrying out top-secret missions are not publicly commemorated.[7]

Trivia[]
- The term ban (Japanese: 番) as a group of samurai refers to guards or a squad to maintain security. For instance, between 1716 and 1868, the shoguns of the Tokugawa Shogunate employed elite intelligence officers called Oniwaban (Japanese: 御庭番 "His Excellency's Garden Guard"). In popular culture, the officers of Oniwaban are often depicted as veteran spies akin to ninja during the medieval period (c. 1200–c. 1600).
- The slogan of the Shuumatsuban seems to be, "Send in the Shuumatsu to end traitors and criminals alike."[5]
- According to the stage description of Key Mechanisms That Shouldn't Be Misjudged, there is a Shuumatsuban text that states, "a competent ninja never overlooks any mechanism in play, for it may prove key to turning the tables..."
- The Shuumatsuban can make elemental powder. It is slightly toxic.[16]
- A skill that Shuumatsuban can learn is how to make artificial cadavers for faking someone's death. These are made up of Raw Meat for body weight, smelted White Iron composite bones, and Sea Ganoderma for body fat. After being dressed in the subject's distinct clothes the cadaver is subjected to burn damage; it is implied that this would disguise the creation's 'features' while the damaged clothes leave enough evidence for the body to be identifiable as the subject. Making one body generally takes one entire day.[17]
- Ayato also uses the Shuumatsuban to deliver strange foods to Thoma.[18]
