!! Igari Juuzou
A terminally ill samurai in search of a worthy opponent to end his life in honorable battle. After killing another samurai that was possessed by a Horror, he strikes a deal with the Horror in order to cure him of his disease. However, the healing process takes up several hundred years, causing him to awake in modern day Japan, where he encounters Rei fighting a Horror and brands him as his worthy opponent.

* AntiVillain: He is only a villain by being too fixated on fighting Rei to the death. But despite being a villain, he possesses many heroic and honorable qualities. For example, when the Horror possessing him tells him to kill innocent people, so it can feed in their blood and thus sustain Juuzou's eternal life, Juuzou resists this urge and cuts open his own body, telling the horror to feed on his own blood, as killing innocents is not the honorable thing to do.
* BadassNormal: Probably the greatest of the series. While a Makai Knight usually needs to employ exceptional fighting skills gained by receiving TrainingFromHell at a young age and even magic equipment to defeat a horror, Juuzou manages to defeat one with just his regular samurai training and sword. And that is before he is possessed by one.
* DeathSeeker: His primary motivation. He knew he was dying from disease, but wanted to find a worthy opponent to die by the sword, instead of a dishonorable death by disease.
* DemonicPossession: Inverted. He is the only character in the whole franchise to be in complete control after being possessed. Juuzou manages to take advantage over all the perks of being taken over by a Horror, while the Horror is powerless to stop him.
* InstantExpert: He masters Soul Metal in a matter of seconds, while this takes years to master for a regular Makai Knight.
* RipVanWinkle: In order to cure Juuzou from his disease, the Horror puts his body to sleep for several hundred years. Once he wakes up, the first thing he sees is a modern airplane flying over him.
* WorthyOpponent: Sees Rei as one to himself. In the end, Rei acknowledges Juuzou to be one as well.
* YouCouldHaveUsedYourPowersForGood: Rei tells Juuzou he should have been a Makai Knight with his skills. Juuzou replies that he is not interested.
