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.
