Among the three "goddesses", Ichikishimahime is noted by both humans and Aradama alike for her defeatist personality. Convinced that she is not useful to anyone, she tends to lament about this uselessness in the presence of other people. She also chooses not to fight in times of trouble, and even complains about physical activity. On the other hand, in the presence of someone who gives her importance, Ichikishimahime is willing to set aside her ego to protect that person.
Takirihime had shown concern over Ichikishimahime's ideology; she believed that humans will be unable to tolerate Ichikishimahime's ideals of pushing forward human evolution by allowing Aradama to fuse with humans. Regardless, Ichikishimahime had already begun to pursue her ideals by giving her knowledge to Yukari Origami , which allowed the Myouga Project to take form.

His personality comes from Togame's memories ( her father to be more specific).


Katanagatari

Shichika has apricot skin, black eyes that become grey when he is serious or downtrodden and long black hair with a red circular swirl on the front of his fringe. He has a seven-pointed leaf motif throughout his design. His hair is shaped as a leaf and leaves appear on his thick, red ribbon belt, hands, ponytail, and hakama. As Shichika is not familiar with society, he walks around only half-clothed. He considers being fully clothed a hassle as it impairs his movement while fighting.
He initially wore a plain pale green leaf-shaped midriff-exposing cap-sleeved vest with a red flower on the front and plain pale green pants with a thick black ribbon-like belt.
He currently wears long half red and half black sleeves with red parts that partially cover the top of his hands, a thick red and black ribbon-like belt, black pants with red leaf-like markings and jagged ends and red sandals with red flower-like bobbles on the top of the straps. After Togame's passing, he wears her one-sleeved kimono (now dyed red) as a belt, as well as tying a lock of her hair to it.

Full Appearance Shichika before his journey. Shichika after Togame's death.

Shichika knows nothing of the outside world, leaving him clueless to how embarrassing, annoying, or obvious his actions can be. In other words, he is often confused by simple customs and even has trouble telling people apart. He was raised as a weapon, and as such, is bad at expressing his emotions, though he does regard Togame as his wielder. He states that he is in love with her, following her orders even when finding them to be a hassle. As he meets more people, he becomes more human and feels remorse for his previous actions.


Katanagatari

As his name suggests, he wears a white heron-like uniform.

Not much is known about him except what has been heard of him. He speaks everything backwards.

Nickname: Reverse-talk Shirasagi (逆さ喋りの白鷺, Sakasashaberi no Shirasagi )


Katanagatari

Takahito was a handsome young man with dark green, shoulder-length hair and heterochromia, with red eye and one green eye. His armor was primarily shades of green, yellow, and red, and seemed to be modelled after an owl.

According to Rinne Higaki , he was quite cheeky and lively just like his daughter. He also had an honorable side as he sacrificed himself for the sake of history and his daughter.


Katanagatari

Togame is petite and often claims to be physically fragile. As a child, she had black hair and dark pink eyes. After she witnessed the death of her father, her appearance changed. Her hair turned white from the shock and the eye that saw his murder through the doorway gap takes on a crucifix / cross-like appearance whenever she schemes. One of the Maniwani notes that it "shines with ambition". Later in the series, her long hair is chopped off by a brutal attack from Nanami Yasuri .
Togame dresses in the flamboyant manner of a princess, with colors of deep purple and royal blue. She wears a one-sleeved kimono top emblazoned with the symbol of a coiled golden snake. A piece of half-armor covers one shoulder, referencing her samurai lineage. Her skirt has an intentionally torn appearance. She wears traditional geta. In the novels, Togame states that fashion is important and she dresses as she does to give herself a more imposing appearance.
Despite her youthful appearance and small stature, Togame is older than she looks, being at least twenty-four, while Kanara Azekura estimates she is about thirty-three.

Full Appearance Eye color change when scheming. Her hair cut by Nanami.

Togame has a strong will and a high intellect, but she is also very clumsy and not immune to bad judgment. She calculates brutal schemes that surprise even her partner / sword, Shichika Yasuri . Despite this, Togame is a cheery girl that handles herself as royalty, as is shown with her habit of wearing extravagant clothing and way of speaking. Her catchphrase is "Cheerio!", which she shouts while striking Shichika. Togame explains that this is a foreign word for "Chesuto!" (the Kagoshima dialect equivalent of "Ganbare!") only to discover later that this is incorrect. After some embarrassment, she tries to pass it off as an intentional choice.
Togame announces that she is the "general strategian" for the shogun himself, an odd self-chosen title for a person that takes on odd work, such as finding the 12 Deviant Blades of myth. She is rarely fazed by anything they encounter and is driven by the necessity to do what needs to be done to complete the quest, no matter what the cost.
Togame is wary of trusting others as she has been betrayed before on her sword-collecting quest. She orders Shichika to fall in love with her as she believes that only love surpasses all other temptations, including money or honor. Togame defines herself as a strategian, but emphasizes that what she concocts are not normal strategies or plans. She asserts that she instead makes schemes: haphazard plans made by the destitute and desperate to achieve success in the face of impossible odds. Her schemes focus on survival instead of complete victory, though she admits that sometimes, miracles can happen.


Katanagatari

A blond-haired man who wears western glasses and minimal clothing. He is enveloped in lightning from Akutō Bita.

An egotistical warrior who proclaims that when a healthy warrior such as himself wields Akutō Bita , they become something out of originality.


Katanagatari

Kekkaishi

Aihi most often appears in her human form: a woman with dark blue hair. She wears a white lab coat, which has a black armband with a white cross pattern on the left arm (all of her subordinates wear this armband in the manga [3] ), a black top underneath, bluish-green leggings, and sandals. [1] Aihi's true form is an enormous, somewhat humanoid blue flower with a large, single eye at the center of her petals, and countless vines for attacking. [2]

Aihi tends to be quiet and introspective. She is greatly interested in understanding humans [2] , and dislikes her work being wasted or destroyed. [4] [2] Though she is frustrated by her inability to leave the castle, she also displays concern for Hisui , her only subordinate. [1]


Kekkaishi

Byaku has long, gray hair which usually covers the left side of his face. This hides his over-sized left eye, but still reveals a large, X-shaped scar centered on his nose. [3] Both the left side of Byaku's head and most of his left arm are composed of mechanical parts. Unlike the other members of Kokuboro, Byaku is actually still human, though he has heavily modified his body. [4]

While he was entirely human, Byaku rarely showed any emotion. He claims to have never loved his wife, believing that she was only using him to fulfill her own selfish desires. [4] Byaku is a master manipulator [5] , and remains calm in almost any situation. Though he rarely fights, in all of Kokuboro, only Princess and Kaguro have no fear of him. [6] He is entirely devoted to Princess, and she appears to be the only one he ever truly cared for. [7]


Kekkaishi

Gagin normally appears in a human skin that resembles a very tall man with spiked-up gray hair wearing battle armor. When he gets excited or angry enough, he begins to transform [1] into his true self: a six-armed centaur with a horse head, sharp red fangs, and three horns emerging from his head. His mane, tail and ankles seem to have flames emerging from them. [2]

Gagin is basically a hothead that loves a challenging fight. Most of Kokuboro's motives are secondary to him, he just wants to seek out and defeat strong opponents. [1] He is at first disappointed when he sees that Karasumori 's guardians are basically children, but quickly becomes excited when he sees their power. Though he is one of Kokuboro's best fighters, he allows his thirst for battle to overtake his senses. [2] His office is full of various weapons, neatly arranged along the walls. [3]


Kekkaishi

Gen had a very serious appearance for a teenager, possessing sharp eyes (due to being half Ayakashi) like an animal's, with sharp spiky black hair with a green tint and a apricot skin tone. His clothing mainly consisted of two outfits, the one he wore during battles consisted of a ninja like outfit, with purple pants and a short sleeved robe, which opened slightly at the top, along with a black sash around the waist. He also wore a green mesh long sleeved shirt, with guards on both his arms and legs, which had a swirly pattern on them, and plain black shoes. Along with that his outfit also carried The Shadow Organization Star symbol on both the backside of the robe, and on both sides of the front. And during his stay at Karasumori Academy , his regular clothes mainly consisted of the Middle School's uniform, with the only difference being that he kept the jacket unzipped revealing a orange shirt underneath and various shoes. He also carried a special blue flame tattoo around his body, given to him as a boy in order to keep him from fully transforming, he also has a muscular build (most likely a result from his training with Atora). After he transformed, Gen's body took on a Wolf-Man like form, growing taller than he was before. He also had brown fur all over his body, with long flowing hair running down his back. His eyes became light green with slitted pupils and his body gained markings over his face and limbs, Furthermore the flame tattoo around his waist changed from blue to red after his transformation.

Gen had a very solitary nature, and was slow to trust or even interact with anyone. He had trouble understanding the way other people behave, and spent a great deal of time observing them and reflecting. He was particularly puzzled by the partnership between Yoshimori Sumimura and Tokine Yukimura (since their families are supposedly still feuding), and could not understand what Yoshimori sees in such a "scary girl". Even when around people he considered friends, Gen only opened up so much. Like Yoshimori, Gen thought nothing of stepping in to save someone despite any danger to himself, though his reasons stem from Masamori entrusting him with his duties, which he felt gave his life purpose. After some time, it was revealed that Gen was reluctant to get close to others out of fear that they might witness his powers, and either label him as a monster or be hurt by him. [4]


Kekkaishi

Likely due to the inhumane spell that combines their bodies, the six brothers that compose Ichirou's giant body are all disfigured in some way. Gorou's left eye is unusually pale and narrowed, and his hair, while dark and long, appears to be thinning. [1] When venturing out, he conceals his face beneath a hood and mask, and also wears an eyepatch over his left eye. [2]

Gorou seemed just as cruel and calculating as his older brother Ichirou. [2] That Ichirou was willing to separate solely to free Gorou implies that he had great faith in Gorou's ability to carry out his orders. [1]


Kekkaishi

In human form, Haizen is a bald man with a tattoo on the left side of his head. The head of his demon form somewhat rese
Haizen's human form
mbles a silkworm, with the rest of his body being black, tall, and rounded.

He seems to be the least intelligent of the four. He seems to have a hard time remembering speeches, and seems to be uncomfortable in speaking as well. Once he reveals his true form, he doesn't speak at all, even when he was about to be destroyed.


Kekkaishi

Haroku's human disguise is a man with long, green hair. [1] In his true form, Haroku has a single eye, four powerful arms, a dark gray body, and dark green hair. [2]

While in human form, Haroku appears to be somewhat shy and unsure of himself. [1] In his true form, he is completely focused on doing his part in battle and says very little. [2]


Kekkaishi

Matsudo is a short, older man with gray hair. He wears glasses. [1]

Matsudo has a sly, playful nature. He enjoys teasing his friends [1] and toying with his enemies, and always seems to have a winning strategy in place no matter the situation. [2] Matsudo is entirely devoted to avenging the death of his lost love, Risa Kagami, and has a deep loathing toward her former husband, Shiranuma, who he felt sacrificed her in search of power. [3]


Kekkaishi

Hekian always wears a green cloak and dark green necklace, as well as a pale green face wrap and a white turban that conceals his face. His style of dress and attitude are very similar to The Shadow Organization 's Okuni .

Hekian's entire purpose is to investigate: the deeper the mystery, the more pleased he is while exploring it. He is especially intrigued by the Kekkaishi's Kekkai. [2] Hekian appears to get along well with Koshu , and generally treats everyone (even enemies) with respect unless thoroughly provoked. He later reveals that this attitude was partially due to Byaku's mind control: once free of Byaku's bug, Hekian's attitude and speech are less formal.


Kekkaishi

Ichirou is an enormous man, both in height and weight. He is rarely ever seen without either the mask that covers his entire head, or the small fan that he carries. [1]

Ichirou is calculating and cruel, actively plotting the demise of Masamori, the Night Troop, and the entire Sumimura Clan while still serving on the Council of Twelve. He is harsh with nearly everyone he views as being beneath him, especially his brothers if they should disappoint him. Ichirou is powerful enough that he never hesitates to threaten others, and even those who know what he is guilty of do not dare to challenge him directly, unless left with no other options.


Kekkaishi

Kaguro is always wearing a human skin disguise while in Karasumori: a tall, pale man with red eyes and dark hair. Though it is an older model and Aihi has designed more up-to-date ones, Kaguro prefers it, considering that the limits it places on his powers provides a fun challenge. [3] When not in his human skin disguise, Kaguro appears as a mummy with large eyes with red irises and yellow sclera, and always wears a black robe with red, frayed trim. [4] The exposed portions of his skin are badly burned, as his transformation into an Ayakashi greatly resembled him being struck by lightning. [2]

Kaguro is calculating, sadistic, and cunning. He hangs back and observes in many battles, looking for a single opponent who captures his interest. Once found, he pursues and provokes them with mind games until the two meet for their final battle. [3] He also enjoys manipulating the other demons in Kokuboro, and does not consider cutting them down a betrayal, because in his own words, he has no allies. [1] Kaguro also has some sense of personal honor: he despises taking hostages and prefers to challenge enemies directly in combat.


Kekkaishi

Koshu's human form is a very short, black-haired man with glasses. His true form is that of a red octopus demon, and oddly enough, he stays the exact same size.

Koshu is a devoted follower of Princess, and is obsessed with the state and cleanliness of the castle, which he considers his.


Kekkaishi

Kurohime looks like an average black fish, and is female. When she communicates with Masamori, her mouth makes the similar motion of a fish swimming in water. Her fins flap to stay airborne.


Kekkaishi

Mikeno is a female calico cat . The upper left portion of her face is black, while the upper right portion is most likely orange. A large portion of her back and her right front foreleg are also black. Her tail (which is totally white save for black sections at the tip and middle) is long enough that it can easily wind around her body at least four times. She wears a sealing collar with a single charm on it. [1] She also has cartoonishly prominent eyelashes to denote femininity, as opposed to Shimano.

Mikeno is very formal, generally referring to Legitimate Successors by their titles, rather than their names ( Tokiko is "21st," Tokine is "22nd"). [1]


Kekkaishi

Rokurou usually wears a hood and mask that conceals everything but his eyes. Judging by the star symbol on his clothing, he has some function in the Shadow Organization, but has so far only been seen working alongside the Investigation Department as a temporary guide.

Rokurou tends to be cold and quick to anger. He held a grudge against his older brothers for betraying him, but his first allegiance is ultimately to his clan. He criticizes Yoshimori for not appreciating his position as a Legitimate Successor, and holds the entire Sumimura family in low regard. However, Rokurou has a softer side: he accepted a gift of candy from some younger Night Troop members while he was recovering, and returned the majority so they could enjoy it. Rokurou has a somewhat strained relationship with his younger brother: he fears Shichirou and resents any attempts by him to become closer, even though Shichirou seems to genuinely prefer Rokurou to his other brothers (especially considering that they are all dead by Shichirou's own hand). At the end of the series, Rokurou and Shichirou are on slightly better terms, and Rokurou no longer seems to fear him.


Kekkaishi

In contrast with his former commander, Sakon has a refined appearance that fits with his tactical nature, a handsome man with pointed eyelashes and blond hair that is pulled back to reveal two large bangs that hang above his head like horns as well as a braided ponytail that is held by a steel hairband on the top of his head. His garb consists of a dark indigo Mandarin style robe with blue outline and red outline around his neck collar, two light blue sleeves and baggy pants, and black knee-length stockings ending in sandals. His demonic features are his blackish eyes that are shaped in a deranged oval shape and pointed teeth. [1]

In contrast to his former commander Gagin, Sakon is respectful, reserved and composed around his superiors, usually addressing them with "-sama" or "-san". He is a skilled tactician and prefers to keep his motives hidden [1] , to the point that even Princess cannot tell what he is thinking. He is also arrogant, looking down on his foes and believing that he is capable of taking over Karasumori by himself, and does not hesitate to use hostages. [2] He is very devoted to Gagin [1] , and takes the mission to take over Karasumori in part to avenge him. Sakon also has a short temper and greatly resents being criticized, going so far as to kill a subordinate for suggesting he enter the battle field because most of his men were being killed, before immediately doing just that.


Kekkaishi

S
Sanan's human form
anan is a brown bat demon with two large eyes, one situated directly above the other on his face. Both of his wings have a sharp edge that can easily cut through flesh. [2] His human form is a man with dark brown hair. [1]

Quite intelligent and very confident in his ability to lead, Sanan commands his comrades without hesitation, [1] and is quickly able to form new strategies that take advantage of their strengths. He does not particularly care about any of them, however, and would instantly sacrifice them if it meant that he alone would survive. [2]


Kekkaishi

Sandy is an attractive young woman with light hair. Yoshimori is made so uncomfortable by her beauty that he can barely speak to her, overly self conscious of how unattractive he must seem to someone like her. [1]

Sandy is friendly and outgoing, but is very afraid of Kokuunsai, who she (rather accurately) believes to be an old pervert that constantly follows her around. [1]


Kekkaishi

His original form is a giant squid-like demon who can shoot lasers from his head's blood-red tentacles and having fun while doing it and making funny shooting noises like a kid. Sekia in his human appearance appears to be a skinny, pasty young man with spiky red hair.

Sekia is an outgoing, fun-loving Ayakashi, portrayed with a childlike, raspy voice in the anime. When he was able to enter the human world during the day for the first time, he seemed very intrigued with many of the human necessities and attachments.


Kekkaishi

Shigemori is an old man with white hair and a white mustache. His hair is white and only covers the back and the sides of his head, leaving his crown exposed. In Kekkaishi uniform, he wears the exact same attire Yoshimori wears. His Houin mark is located on the palm of his left hand.

Shigemori is typically very loud, obnoxious, and strict, but takes his responsibilities as both the Sumimura clan head and a Kekkaishi very seriously. Inwardly, he worries about his grandsons: that Yoshimori is too reckless and immature, and that Masamori is steadily immersing himself in darkness. Shigemori scolds Yoshimori often, constantly pushing him to put aside childish things and focus on Kekkaishi training. [1] Shigemori regularly gets into fights with Tokiko Yukimura over which family is the true successor of Tokimori Hazama, and views most nightly Ayakashi hunts as a chance for Yoshimori to prove the Sumimura's superiority by overshadowing Tokine's skills (though it is often Tokine who beats Yoshimori). Despite this, when there is real danger, he is usually among the first to suggest working with the Yukimuras, but never fails to loudly point out Yoshimori's failings once the danger has passed. His relationship with Tokiko was once very similar to the connection that Yoshimori and Tokine have now, though appears to have become strained over the years. [2]


Kekkaishi

Shimano's sealed form is a tiger-striped cat with a seal around his neck. He has two very long tails. In his unsealed form, he is much larger and more fierce.

Shimano tends to be fairly serious most of the time, but seems to take a certain pleasure in torturing Yoshimori in the name of training, much like Shigemori does. Both Shimano and Mikeno are very formal, and usually refer to the Legitimate Successors by their titles (Shigemori is 21st, Yoshimori is 22nd) rather than their names. [1] Shimano also shows great responsibility in the job that was assigned to him and tried to help Yoshimori in any way he could.


Kekkaishi

Shion is a slender woman with black hair and pale skin. She typically wears violet earrings (with matching lipstick, and nail polish on her fingers and toes), a white cloak with spiderweb designs, a small armored chest-plate, ripped violet leggings, and a short wrap skirt of spiderweb. Her arms are always wrapped in spider thread, and she has a large, dark blue spider tattoo on her back.

Shion has a relaxed, almost lazy approach to her role in Kokuboro. [1] She is easily bored, and often will not do anything she sees as requiring too much effort. [2] She admits to only having joined Kokuboro because she liked the castle.


Kekkaishi

Like their namesake, Shirahago's human forms are a set of child-like female triplets with long, pale hair, but their speech implies that they are significantly older than they appear.

Adding a depiction of their names matched to colors.

They all wear long-sleeved kimonos (Hizuki's is pink, Fuzuki's is green, and Mizuki's is pale blue) that hide their hands, and have overly large feet. Each triplet's forehead has a different number of black dots: Hizuki has only one, Fuzuki has two, and Mizuki has three in a upward-pointing triangle pattern. When they begin to transform due to Karasumori's power, they gain dark red markings that stretch from the bottom of their eyes to their chins. [1] In their combined form, they take the form of a huge, white owl with large, orange eyes.

They are confident in their abilities and eager to fight, but detest weakness in themselves and being made to follow orders. Though they tend to argue with each other at times, there is a clear bond between them that goes beyond merely needing three members to transform. [1] The triplets are unwilling members of Kokuboro, and their greatest wish is to obtain greater power solely so they can one day be free. [2]


Kekkaishi

They all wear black, tight-fitting bodysuits and white masks. [1]

They follow Shion's orders without hesitation and communicate via high-pitched squeaks. [1] While not very expressive, they have displayed shame while Shion was upset with them, [2] and pride when she depended on their skills. [3] They are not very smart, usually doing things wrong (such as accidentally dropping a large rock on Yoshimori when ordered to put it down gently).


Kekkaishi

The spy is the first to use the Q-type human skin disguise (one of Aihi 's first models) to conceal his Ayakashi aura and body. It takes the form of a red-eyed man with dark blue hair and pale skin, dressed in a business suit. [1] The basis for the Q-type's appearance is a man that Aihi once lived with. [3] Though only briefly seen, the spy's actual body is dark green and skeletal. [2]


Kekkaishi

Tokiko is a short, older woman with gray hair that ends in a peculiar curl on her forehead. She sometimes wears reading glasses.

Tokiko enjoys teasing Shigemori Sumimura , who has been her colleague since they were young [3] , and they argue on almost a daily basis, frequently escalating into fights that their families tend to ignore. However, Tokiko takes her Kekkaishi duties very seriously. She tends to be overly critical of all Sumimura in general and she is always reminding Yoshimori Sumimura that he should be using his power, rather than letting it use him. [4] However, Tokiko's sternness toward Yoshimori especially may be because his reckless, impulsive nature reminds of her similar faults she had in her own youth. Tokiko is also a strict but effective teacher for Tokine, who despite not having Yoshimori's power, can often accurately analyze and respond in a variety of dangerous situations, usually in ways that Yoshimori either cannot or simply does not take the time to think of.


Kekkaishi

Tokine is taller than Yoshimori as well as two years older than him, [2] with fair skin and long, dark brunette hair that is normally pulled back in a long ponytail. She is considered beautiful by most boys (and even some teachers) in her school . [3] The Houin appeared above her left breast, as it traditionally does with all Legitimate Successors of the Yukimura family. She bears a scar on her right hand, which she received while protecting Yoshimori from an Ayakashi in their childhood. [2] [3] She is fairly thin and quite athletic.

Tokine is cool, calm, and collected. She takes her job as a Kekkaishi very seriously, and has viewed Karasumori as a highly dangerous place for much of her life. Her hobbies include studying and occasionally hanging out with friends. Tokine is constantly impressed by the power and potential Yoshimori has, but is constantly frustrated by his poor control and lazy attitude, [3] as well as his habit of putting himself in danger unnecessarily. She cares for Yoshimori and often protected him many times when he was younger. She also likes to tease him and isn't aware of his feelings for her.
However, as the story progresses, she begins to show clear signs of affection for Yoshimori, though this is typically expressed through Tokine bursting into frustrated tears while she verbally or physically attacks Yoshimori after he does something incredibly dangerous. The greatest indicator of Tokine's feelings for Yoshimori occurs in the anime: after Yoshimori allows himself to be kidnapped by Shion of Kokuboro , [4] instead of rushing to inform Masamori (as she does in the manga [5] ), Tokine follows him into the collapsing dimension herself, despite being fully aware of the danger involved. [6] Though their families are rivals, Tokine is always polite and respectful toward the other Sumimuras.
While Tokine is sometimes referred to as the weakest Kekkaishi in the series (usually by enemies who greatly underestimate her), she is clearly the most ruthless. Examples of her ruthless pragmatism are her disregard for the health of Kimiya Hachioji when he is possessed by Nouotoko , and the forbidden murder of the Hidagou Lord that invades Karasumori and attacks its defenders. Tokine is also much more serious and strict than Yoshimori, and often unknowingly says harsh things that, when combined with Yoshimori's overactive imagination, temporarily cause him to spiral into small fits of depression.
Tokine scolds Yoshimori almost as much as his grandfather does, but this is largely out of concern for him. More than likely, Tokine's serious and strict nature originates both from seeing her father die right in front of her when she was a young girl, and from her grandmother Tokiko, who is also quite strict. She is frequently exasperated by the great lengths Yoshimori is willing to go to to protect her; when she learns about his plans to seal Karasumori forever, she calls him insane for trying to accomplish such an impossible goal. She notes that Yoshimori tries to do everything on his own, and tells him she wants to help in any way she can.
Unlike Yoshimori, who is typically tired and irritable during the day, Tokine seems to almost never be tired during school and, for the most part, is a capable student. During school hours, Tokine is fairly isolated; despite her popularity with boys, she rarely speaks to them (even going so far as to order Yoshimori not to speak to her at school, though this rule is relaxed when there is Kekkaishi business to discuss). She also has very few school friends, and is even somewhat distant with them, usually because protecting Karasumori is at the forefront of her mind, and any other matter is secondary in importance. [7] However, she makes every effort to (and usually does) get along well with most allied ability users she encouters on Kekkaishi business, and is usually the first to welcome new comrades to Karasumori.


Kekkaishi

Tokio was a tall man with brown hair and an easy smile. In the flashbacks he appears in, he was typically seen in the usual Yukimura Kekkaishi uniform. [2]

Tokio was known for his kind, supportive nature. He protected Karasumori largely to keep his family safe. He did not want Tokine to become a Kekkaishi until she was older, as he worried for her safety. He secretly asked Yoshimori to play with Tokine when they were children, not wanting them to dislike each other because of the feud between their families. [2] However, he apparently feared Sumiko's ruthless nature and enormous power, because according to her, he sometimes called her a monster. [3]

Toshimori is rather mature and responsible for his young age, which people tend to respond positively to. His friends think he is too serious [3] , his father and grandfather more often trust him (as opposed to Yoshimori) to maintain the house in their absences [4] , and Tokine treats him the way she might a younger brother (though with more patience and warmth than she generally shows Yoshimori) [5] . Toshimori is on good terms with his entire family (he and Shuji tend to avoid the regular conflicts between Yoshimori and Shigemori), even his mother [6] despite her long absence in his life. He also shows regular concern for Madarao as a member of the family, not just a tool to hunt Ayakashi . [7] His friends refer to him as "Tosho" ( Toshi in the english dub) and often ask him to help them with their assignments, for good reason: Toshimori is an excellent student as well as the librarian of his class. [8]
Though he has at least some potential as a Kekkaishi, Toshimori shows little interest in it and is not at all eager to pursue it. Yoshimori has encouraged him to train [9] , figuring that Toshimori's learned mind will make him a quick study. However, Toshimori recognizes and accepts that while he is capable of reading the family's ancient scrolls on technique, he has great difficulty executing the techniques themselves. Instead, he prefers to stay in the background, supporting his brothers when he can, but otherwise staying out of their way, so as to avoid placing any other burdens on their already stressful lives. [10]

This could be due to his knowledge of the difference of their fighting styles, with Boris being a Sei-type fighter and he is being a Dou-type fighter.
Alexander has shown to have some honor, as after having lost to Akisame, he willingly went to Big Lock (though he did promise he would escape someday).
