Monjiro (モンジロウ Monjirō?) is a non-playable character in Mystical Ninja Starring Goemon for the Game Boy. He is a vagrant who resides in an underground cave.
History
Monjiro is a mysterious wanderer and presumably a longtime rival to the Goemon family. He is encountered in an underground area of the first level, where he challenges Goemon to an arrow shooting minigame. He rewards him with a bamboo stick, with which the latter can make use of as a breathing pipe to traverse through a river.

Trivia
- Monjiro is likely inspired by the Vagrant, a classic enemy in the Ganbare Goemon series. Both wear a big kasa hat, a cape, and are often seen biting on a branch stick.
