History Characters / Kekkaishi

* TheStoic

* CompleteMonster: It's obvious from the first point that he wanted to fight Yoshimori, but the extents he does through to make this possible, [[spoiler: [[HannibalLecture tries to exploit his friend, [[TheWoobie Gen]]'s feelings of not belonging in society and becoming a threat to his friends by tempting him to join his side]]. When he refuses later on in the middle of a fight with another [[EliteMook executive of Kokubourou]],...[[MoralEventHorizon KILLS him by stabbing in the back, just as he was about to finish off his opponent]]. It's heavily implied he would've done so anyway [[ForTheEvulz to make Yoshimori determined enough to kill him and get a good fight out of it]].]]

* MoralEventHorizon: From the moment you saw him, you knew he's bad news, [[spoiler: then kills Gen when he was about to finish off another opponent, earning him a special [[RoaringRampageOfRevenge place]] in Yoshimori's heart]].

* WorthyOpponent: Thinks Yoshimori is the one [[spoiler: [[DeathSeeker who can finally give him the "feeling" of the a life-death sitaution]].]]

[[folder: The Yagyou]]

[[folder:The Urakai]]

* TheNoseKnows

* GratuitousEnglish: His frequent referral to Tokine as "honey."

* WhyDidItHaveToBeSnakes: She's terrified of cockroaches.

Beware of '''Unmarked Spoilers!'''

* [[spoiler:IAmNotLeftHanded I Am Not Right Handed]]
* IdiotHero: Somewhat. In most series he'd probably be considered a fairly smart fighter; he just stands out here because everyone else fights really smartly, and they all call him on fighting through instinct and pure power too often. His older brother and [[WeakButSkilled Tokine]] are the major foils.

* BunnyEarsLawyer - An exorcist/demon slayer... who's obsessed with making castles out of cake.

* [[spoiler:IAmNotLeftHanded ]] - [[spoiler:Not Right Handed actually, he's left handed]]
* IdiotHero - Somewhat. In most series he'd probably be considered a fairly smart fighter. He just stands out here because everyone else fights really smartly. And they all call him on fighting through instinct and pure power alone. Has his older more [[AntiHero devious]] brother and [[WeakButSkilled Tokine]] as major foils for this.
* TheMessiah - Veers this way sometimes.

* SittingOnTheRoof - Seems to spend most of his time there.

* TrademarkFavoriteFood - Coffee milk.

* UnskilledButStrong - See also IdiotHero. He has ridiculous amounts of power, but terrible aim and form.

* LauraBailey ([[YuYuHakusho again playing a girl with the last name of Yukimura.]])

* {{Tsundere}} - Mild realistic version. Alternates between treating Yoshimori like a kid brother, ignoring like an annoying kid brother, having moments with him, beating him up for annoying her and beating him up while crying her eyes out for worrying him.
** Then playing the trope as straight as possible by beating him up while trying to apologize to him.
* WeakButSkilled: She isn't as strong as Yoshimori, but she's more precise than he is.
* WhyDidItHaveToBeSnakes - She's terrified of cockroaches.
* YamatoNadeshiko - The rest of the school thinks she is. The main characters and her best friend know better.

* DissonantSerenity - Due to his older brother's frequent quarrels with their grandfather, [[{{Understatement}} living in the Yoshimori house is somewhat hectic.]] Some people might find it surprising if their grandfather chased their brother around the house (or vice versa), but for Toshimori, who has dealt with this most of his life, [[ButForMeItWasTuesday nothing is really that surprising.]]
* WiseBeyondTheirYears - he takes after his dad.

* DarkAndTroubledPast: [[spoiler:Was bullied and abused by his brothers, and nearly killed most of his family.]]

* HalfHumanHybrid - half Ayakashi

* [[spoiler:KilledOffForReal]]

* {{Tearjerker}}- [[spoiler:He never found out his sister still loved him.]]
* [[spoiler:TooCoolToLive]]

* {{Bishonen}} - The girls at school love him.
* DudeLooksLikeALady - The bane of his existence. Also makes some of the [[HoYay male bonding scenes]] between him and Yoshimori even more confusing.
* FemmeFatalons - male example

* TheSmartGuy - From time to time, Yoshimori decides that his best plan is just to tell Sen what his goals are, then do whatever Sen says.
* [[spoiler: {{Telepathy}} - Limited by several things. Kekkaishi and possibly some other ability users block it and even detect or interfere with it. It also provokes a red right hand in the form of his eyes flashing demonic when he uses it. This is worse than it sounds as he need to be close for it to work. Lastly, Sen is afraid that he will be ostracized even by the other Yagyou if they find out he is able to read their minds, so he does his best to conceal his ability, even when he has information that he [[KeepingSecretsSucks desperately would like to share]]]].

* CaptainErsatz - Atora is apparently a {{Pokemon}} trainer who got lost and ended up in the Yagyou.
* [=~Everything's Worse With Bears~=] - Her partner, Raizou, is a giant electric bear Ayakashi.

* MarshmallowHell - to Gen.

* BishonenLine - Starts out as a middle-aged old man, changes to a distinctly more attractive twentyish year old (with cool boots), then finally to a perhaps eight-year-old CuteShotaroBoy.

* ChristmasCake - A particularly crazed example. [[spoiler:Saigo thinks any woman younger than her should be killed]].

* [[spoiler:HalfHumanHybrid]]

* HannibalLecture - Delivers an extremely harsh one to Shishio.

* InterspeciesRomance - with [[spoiler:Mayuka]]

* TrueNeutral - According to Shichiro, his "scales are completely balanced." It's not clear if he believes in balance or just doesn't care about alignment altogether.

* HoYay: A good amount of it with his former [[HeterosexualLifePartners Heterosexual Life Partner]], Koya. It may very well be {{Subtext}}, given how heavy it's laid by both of them—especialy when you remember that Madarao is [[WordOfGay confirmed as being gay]].
* ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice: During the fight with [[spoiler:Koya: Madarao is hit first, but he manages to return the favor seconds after.]]

* ViewerGenderConfusion: He's gay and speaks like a woman, so...
** That only applies to the original Japanese manga. It's clear in the anime he's a guy.

!'''Yoshimori Toshimori'''

!'''Shishio Gen'''

* {{Tsundere}} - Mild realistic version. Alternates between treating Yoshimori like a kid brother, ignoring like an annoying kid brother, having moments with him, beating him up for annoying her and beating him up while crying her eyes out for worrying her.

* hiroyukiYoshino

* WhyDidItHaveToBeSnakes - She's terrified of roaches.

* [=~Everything's Worse With Bears~=] - Her partner, Raikou, is a giant electric bear Ayakashi.

* PowerLimiter: going by what happens with Madarao's collar is removed, Hakubi's is likely to have this function, as well.

** Spot the word that was repeated.
