Character Details

Once counted among the Shinsengumi, Shikyoh was known as a deadly foe to the Restoration activists. Yet he held neither creed nor ideology, and was motivated solely by the insatiable lust to kill. His penchant for slaughter soon brought the threat of execution from within the Shinsengumi itself. He learned of this beforehand, however, he abandoned his post and took to the road, wandering and killing at his whim. Now, he has turned his blades against his former comrades. Since he never hesitates when killing, his blade strikes with a merciless clarity.

Appearance

Even in silhouette, the weapons at his side are plain to see, twin blades ready to strike. His kimono hangs in tatters, a brutal figure hardened by blood and steel.

Substory

The influence of Hell's Gate began steering the age back toward the chaos of an earlier time. Shikyoh felt only shallow satisfaction from cutting down ordinary men, barely a faint thrill from placing his life on the line. He saw this shift in the world as an opportunity to find greater fulfillment.
"More... stronger prey... I need to kill them all...," cried his heart.
Then, from the shadows, a voice called to him.
"Assassin of legend... I shall grant you the chance to kill as much as your heart desires."
The mysterious figure vanished into the night, and Shikyoh's lips curled into a smile.

Shikyoh H, HUH?... !CARAMBA! H...HUH? Wha... what's that?
Kagami IT IS SAID,
FOOLS CHOOSE NOT THEIR ENEMIES.
YOUR INSANITY...
MAY BE YOUR TRUE NATURE.
UNA ESPADA LOCA TRATA DE MATAR
CUALQUIERA QUE SE PRESENTE...
LO MISMO PODRA DECIR SOBRE
LA ESENCIA DE LA LOCURA
DE SERES HUMANOS.
UMA ESPADA LOUCA NAO
ESCOLHE AS VITIMAS...
A LOUCURA TALVEZ SEJA A
NATUREZA DO SER HUMANO.
A madman's blade doesn't choose its victims.
Perhaps that madness is man's true nature.
Kagami ...VERY WELL. ...ESTA BIEN. ...OK... ...But no matter.
Kagami I'LL GLADLY DISPOSE OF YOU. YO MISMO VOY A ENCARGARME DE
REPRESENTAR EL MOMENTO
DE TU MUERTE.
EU FAREI A SUA SENA
DE MORTE SER BEM
IMPRESSIONANTE.
I will personally orchestrate your demise.

SEVERAL MONTHS LATER,
THE DAMAGE WAS FIXED.
AND LIFE...RETURNED TO NORMAL.
AND IN THE NORMALCY...
THE ONE WHO SAVED THE WORLD.
DISAPPEARED IN THE FOG
OF THE COMPLACENCY OF PEACE.

DESPUES SE CALMA EL CATACLISMO
Y LAS GENTES RECUPERAN SU VIDA
ORDINARIA...
Y NINGUNO DE ESAS GENTES...

......
MAS NINGUEM SABE SOBRE O HOMEM
......

Thus ended the battle of Hell's Gate. Within a few months, the natural disasters ended and normal life was restored. And in that life, there would be few who knew of the assassin who had saved the world...
