Shōgun is the tyrannical leader of the Japanese macaque tribe. He is very evil and will kill anyone, even those of his own tribe who stands against him. He feeds on puppies and small monkey babies. Shōgun is first seen demanding his followers to get him more puppies, as he enjoys drinking their blood mixed with liquor, which he drinks from a small bowl. When he is denied this chance, he captures a baby monkey straight from his mother's arms and takes him into his shed. The father tries to fight back, but is killed very quickly and the baby is eaten by Shōgun.
