Jakotsu

Jakotsu
English voice:Jen Forgie
Japanese voice:Ai Orikasa

Wielder of a sneaky retractable sword, named the "Jakotsutou", Jakotsu is one of the more skilled fighters of the Shichinintai. He seems to be the first of the Band of Seven to have come into contact with Bankotsu and was with him before the Shichinintai were born. Contrary to him being a male, his voice and dressing is very much like that of a female, although he has a deep hatred for women.

After Kohaku tells him about InuYasha, he desperately wants to meet and fight, but then decides that Inuyasha is very handsome. Upon meeting InuYasha and even Miroku, he is delighted in having opponents of such fine appearance. Jakotsu always looks for the opportunity to fight with InuYasha, and finally gets a chance inside Mount Hakurei when InuYasha is reverted to his human form by the holy barrier. After a lengthy fight Jakotsu loses to InuYasha, who spares his life. Jakotsu happily accepted his fate that he died fighting the battle he wanted and his Shikon Shard is taken by Renkotsu.
