The Kabuki Twins are the Penguin's henchwomen in The Batman.
History[]
The twins first appear helping the Penguin steal jewelry for his birds. They crash Bruce Wayne's party and let Penguin ruin the event. After they leave, they get involved with stealing diamonds, with Batman fighting them. However, the twins help Penguin kidnap Alfred after he enters his house, but after Penguin's defeat, they are arrested.
The twins later appear to help Penguin steal diamonds. Batman stops them but Penguin and the twins get away. Afterwords they help Penguin kidnap Alfred while Bruce is doing an interview with a tv studio.
Powers and Abilities[]
The Kabuki Twins are both highly skilled martial arts combatants, who employ extended steel razor blades at the tips of their fingers. Very little is known about the Kabuki Twins other than that they came into the Penguin's employ during a sojourn in the Orient. They are quite the assassins and will go to great lengths to attack anything they see as a threat.

Trivia[]
- They're mute, although they do scream and grunt in some games, particularly “The Cobblepot Caper”. This could be due to the fact that ninjas are quiet. Whether or not they are able to speak is unknown.
- Although their masks have been knocked off before, we never see their faces in canon.
- They sometimes disguise themselves as geisha girls, with black wigs and green dresses.
- Fans sometimes refer to them as Peri and Gale (peregrine falcon and nightingale).
- They are quite clingy when the Penguin is around other women. This, along with Penguin saying they are his type hints that he is probably in a relationship with them, which can be the reason why they're working for him.
- Where they are from is never mentioned, although they are most likely from Japan.
- They are the few of Penguin's lackeys who are neither bird-themed nor cold-themed.
- Kabuki is a traditional form of Japanese theater that is famous for its over-stylized interpretations of characters. It is now only practiced by males.
