Shichika Yasuri

Shichika is the main character of the Katanagatar series, he is a twenty-four year old who is the seventh head of the Kyotou school of Japanese sword martial arts. After living on an island for twenty years he was sought out by Togame with a mission to find twelve swords. As a practitioner of the Kyotou school of swordplay, he does not use a single sword when fighting. Rather he uses his hands and legs as his primary weapons. In a sense he is actually a physical fighter but since he uses hand-chops he considers it to be an art of the sword. The reason why he practices Kyotou is because the Yasuri family has no talent in handling a sword, which dates back as far as the first head of the school. He is in love with Togame, and will anything she tells him to do. However, sometimes he considers what she tells him to do a hassle.
