Drift Jaku (Japanese: ドリフト=ジャッカー, Dorifuto=Jakkā, Drift=Jacker) is a Special-Type Core Change System B-Daman owned by Asuka Kami in the B-Daman Crossfire anime. It was first released in Japan on April 28, 2012 for 788円.
Body Set: Jaku Body[]
Head Part: Jaku Head[]
Jaku's Head Part has a fin on top of it like a peacock's plumage, along with purple eye designs, a circle in the forehead, and a red visor in an open beak.
Arm Parts: Jaku Arm[]
The shoulders on this B-Daman's Arm Parts are of a conical shape consisting of peacock feathers, along with two additional feathers curved to resemble humanoid arms.
Stud Parts[]
This B-Daman has light gray Stud Parts.
Leg Part: Jaku Leg[]
Jaku Leg has a "Curving/Curve Mode" gimmick, with a hinged ramp at its back. To achieve the change to Curving/Curve Mode, the user must rotate the Leg Part 180 degrees so that the ramp would be in front of the Core Part, allowing one to point the B-Daman downwards and fire curving shots.
Core Part: Drift[]
Drift has a long trigger (almost as long as Double Drazeros'), two Hold Parts, and an adjustable ring at the front that has a semi-translucent rubber strip. The rubber strip can be rotated for either back-spin shots, or narrow-/wide-angled Curving Shots in the B-Daman's Curving/Curve Mode.

Trivia[]
- In its Japanese name, Jacker's name originates from Kujaku, which is the Japanese word for "Peacock". Of course, Jaku also originated from Kujaku.
- Drift Jaku is the latest known B-Daman that can fire curved shots when aimed downwards to the floor, with Stag Cerberus from Super B-Daman coming before it. Coincidentally, it is also the latest known B-Daman that can fire curved shots, with the gimmick's inception in November 1995's release of Golden Bomberman in Super B-Daman.
- The Hasbro version incorrectly calls Drift Jaku as "Thunder Jaku" despite having the Drift Core.
- Jaku is voiced in the English dub by DJ LaROSA.
