=== Transformation into Kuma === Jinno was eventually found by Brother Six of the [[Empty Seven]]. At first, Brother Six was against the idea of saving Jinno's life due to the grief he has bared. However, Brother One convinces [[Dharman]], a top scientist working with the Seven, to mold Jinno into a samurai of immense power, using the boy's grief as a channel. Jinno's scarred flesh was replaced with robotic appendages, and a Life Support System also added. At first, Jinno was saddened by his development, but Jinno eventually donned a mask made in the fashion of the head of Otsuru's teddy bear as well as acquiring two swords to use in his unique style. <p style="margin-top:0.4em;margin-bottom:0.5em;">Jinno/Kuma first appears at the end of Episode 3 of Season 1, guarding the path to the Number one's throne room. In episode 4, he talks to Afro, and claims to not have seen him for a long time. He then engages Afro in combat with dual swords. At first, Afro refuses to draw his sword, and Kuma futher goads him into drawing his blade by insulting Afro. He attacks the legendary swordsman, who skillfully dodges all his attacks. Afro experiences a flashback of his youth, which reveals Kuma as Afro's childhood friend and fellow student, Jinno, who has become grief-stricken from the deaths of all his fellow students and beloved Sword Master at the hands of Afro. Jinno swore revenge on Afro, promising to make his death slow and painful. Kuma's helmet falls off, revealing his cybernetic eye and another one which never stops crying. Afro is unfazed at seeing the decrepit state of his childhood friend and Kuma angrily rushes forward and attacks at the end of the episode.</p> In episode 5, it is revealed that [http://afrosamurai.wikia.com/wiki/Ninja_Ninja Ninja Ninja] stepped in front of Kuma/Jinno's attack, saving Afro. Ninja Ninja, dying from his fatal blow, attempts to light one last cigarette. He encourages Afro, who remembers to use two hands to strengthen his attack strength, and disappears in a cloud of green energy. Before disappearing, he claims that hanging out with Afro has been "the bomb". Jinno hears Afro's comment on blade strength and claims that it will not work on Afro as he is far superior and continues to battle the Number Two samurai. A flashback scene reveals how Jinno survived and was remade into a cyborg by Dharman under orders of the Empty Seven. He was then instructed to wait at the base to the Number One's Throne Room in anticipation for Afro's arrival. Kuma continues to battle Afro, but it is apparent that his life support system is damaged. Enraged, he blames Afro for the deaths of all his friends and calls out their names. Afro reflects on all their deaths and call out their names, especially Otsuru's, which he called twice. Dharman warns Kuma that his life support has been struck and that he does not have much time. He urges Kuma to slay Afro before it is too late. Kuma/Jinno begrudgingly gives Afro an ultimatum; Either one of them must die, stating that there's no going back before makes one last running slash at Afro while he does the same. Afro hits first and Jinno is finally defeated. [[File:Jinno Afro Samurai by isilthefairy.png|thumb|Jinno after his transformation by Number 7]]
