Mibu, Kyou

壬生狂

Demon Eyes Kyou, whose real name is Mibu Kyou, is a legendary figure known for his red, demon-like eyes. He earned the title "Thousand Slayer" by killing over one thousand samurai during the Battle of Sekigahara, before being defeated by a young man named Mibu Kyoshiro. Following his defeat, his mind fused with Kyoshiro's, and his body was hidden somewhere in the Aokigahara forest. He is highly sadistic and takes pleasure in slaughtering anyone. Over time, his bloodlust slowly diminishes, although he still kills without mercy. It continues to peak at times, though training with Muramasa helps fully calm him. During the period when he first meets Yuya, he finds himself very protective of her, though he handles it in a very childish manner. This includes calling her "dog face" and "ugly." However, Kyoshiro states that he indeed likes Yuya.
Kyou's weapon is Tenro, one of the "Four Great Demon Blades." Forged by Muramasa, it is nearly unbreakable. His sword style is The Mumyou Jinpuu Ryuu Satsujin Ken, which was taught to him by Muramasa. It teaches standard fencing skills and defense, but they are far more powerful than the skills of any other sword styles. It is the most powerful sword school in the Mibu Clan. It utilizes attacks that can cut air and create illusions. He later learns a higher form of the style that utilizes the Four Symbols (Genbu, Seiryuu, Byakko, Suzaku, and even Kouryuu), manifesting a number of different powers based upon the creatures.
