Rinku is a child-demon who attacks with yo-yos and serves as a member of the Jolly Devil Six in the Dark Tournament. He is childish and playful, though this behavior tends to annoy those around him. He is also, apparently, good friends with fellow member Chu. Rinku can manipulate special yo-yos known as Serpent Yo-Yos. By using his aura, he controls their movements to either entangle or strike his enemies. During the Makai Tournament, Rinku learned to use his toes and fingers to control the yo-yos. According to Kuwabara, he also possesses an extremely powerful kick. In the Dark Tournament Preliminaries, he fights Kuwabara and wins when both contestants are knocked off the arena; Rinku gets back up and uses his yo-yos to ensnare Kuwabara, who cannot return. Rinku then makes several minor appearances afterward, such as during the fight between Yusuke Urameshi and Younger Toguro. In the Saga of the Three Kings, he trains under Genkai and becomes an A-Class demon. In the Makai Tournament, he passed the preliminaries but did not advance very far afterward.
