contents Let $R$ be a finite ring with identity. The idempotent graph $I(R)$ is the graph whose vertex set consists of the non-trivial idempotent elements of $R$, where two distinct vertices $x$ and $y$ are adjacent if and only if $xy = yx = 0$. The clean graph $Cl_2(R)$ is a graph whose vertices are of the form $(e, u)$, where $e$ is a nonzero idempotent element and $u$ is a unit of $R$. Two distinct vertices $(e,u)$ and $(f, v)$ are adjacent if and only if $ef = fe = 0$ or $uv = vu = 1$. The shuriken graph operation is an operation that arises from the structure of the clean graph and depends on the structure of the associated idempotent graph. In this paper, we study the graph obtained from the shuriken operation and examine how its properties depend on those of the base graph. In particular, we investigate several graph invariants, including the clique number, chromatic number, independence number, and domination number. Moreover, we analyze topological indices and characterize Eulerian and Hamiltonian properties of the resulting shuriken graphs in terms of the properties of the base graphs.
