- “Ah, just what this place needs. Creepy clowns.”
- “Not clowns. Kabuki, Chen's jesters.”
| — Jay and Garmadon, "Only One Can Remain" |
Kabuki were Chen's actors who served him daily. They lived in Chen's Palace and are predominantly formed by women, though some men are also present. It is unknown if Chen was paying the Kabuki or if he had enslaved them.

Only One Can Remain[]
After Chen introduced himself to the Elemental Masters, he ushered his Kabuki and they lead the Elemental Masters to their personal suites.

Neuro entered the Kabuki's room in order to read Chen's mind; however, Clouse gets in the way and threatens to tell the other fighters that he's helping the ninja. Neuro reads his mind for a moment and promptly leaves.
The Day of the Dragon[]
When the Elemental Masters took off to find Skylor, Dareth stayed behind and was telling stories about his past adventures.

Trivia[]
- The kabuki all knew each other, so Nya had to come up with a believable cover story for why she suddenly joined the group.[1]
- Like the lumberjacks, the Kabuki consist of three design variants, with all of them utilizing design elements from another LEGO theme, in this case, the Kimono Girl from Minifigures Series 4:
- Some are dressed in red, with the hair of the Egyptian Queen from Minifigures Series 5.
- Some are dressed in purple, with the same hair as Ms. Laudita.
- Some are dressed in gray, the only male Kabuki, with the same hair as Edna.
- One appeared briefly in "Spy for a Spy," dressed in red, with the same hairstyle as the purple Kabuki. One appeared again later on in "The Jade Princess," and two appeared in the background during the celebration in "Green Destiny." The design on the back of their kimono also resembled the one on the purple Kabuki.
- Coincidentally, the red Kabuki's hairstyle is later used in blonde for Nya's disguise in "Public Enemy Number One."
