Denjiro is the energetic engine stoker and fire-operator inside the wooden giant mecha Steamer Benkei from the "A Tale of Two Robots" segment. Positioned at the very bottom of the mech's interior layout, his sole responsibility is frantically shoveling coal into the roaring furnace to keep the boiler pressurized during combat. He also operates as part of a comedy duo alongside his partner, Daimaru. While Sankichi shouts wild commands from the top, Denjiro and Daimaru suffer the heat and physical toll below.
