History Characters / KenichiTheMightiestDisciple

* TheOtherDarrin: After the [[TearJerker unfortunate]] [[AuthorExistenceFailure passing]] of Creator/TomokoKawakami, Creator/RieKugimiya will be voicing Miu in the OVA.

* [[spoiler:DefectorFromDecadence: It was revealed in Chapter 439 that he was actually groomed by his master to be a powerful follower (and possibly eventual Fist) of YAMI, but he rejected the philosophy of Satsujiken in response to the death of Suzuki.]]
* HeyItsThatVoice: Well, you had to expect him to have a hidden heart if he's voiced by [[Manga/FullmetalAlchemist Alex]] [[LargeHam Louis]] [[ManlyTears Armstrong]], [[OnePiece Roronoa]] [[JerkWithAHeartofGold Zoro]], [[DragonBall Piccolo]] and [[OuranHighSchoolHostClub Ritsu]] [[FaceOfAThug Kasanoda]].

* HeyItsThatVoice: If he voiced [[Manga/FullmetalAlchemist Edward Elric]], I'm not surprised by the following trope.

* TheOtherDarrin: In the English dub.

* [[IllGirl Ill Boy]]: When he was a child, he had a disease that [[YourDaysAreNumbered would not have allowed him to live beyond age 20]]. His entering the world of martial arts and subsequent TrainingFromHell changed that]].

* [[spoiler:DefeatMeansFriendship]]: Or perhaps [[spoiler:romance]] instead.
* [[spoiler:EnemyMine]]

* [[spoiler: PosthumousCharacter]]

* [[spoiler:RedemptionEqualsDeath: Redeems himself by saving Miu, but dies thanks to his own actions.]]

* [[spoiler:SuperpowerfulGenetics: Like Miu, he is a descendant of the Kuremisago clan, a group who specifically breed to create immensely talented children for fighting and martial arts.]]

* TheStoic: His facial expression never changes...[[spoiler:until {{NotSoStoic Sougetsu struck him across the face.}}]]

* BigDamnHeroes: Totally unexpected from him, but [[spoiler:He saves Nijima from Saiga]]

* [[YouFightLikeACow You fight like a poet]]: When engages Akisame in combat the two exchange cryptic poetic verses to each other. At first it seems like Akisame understands him...but then reveals that he can't and was just talking nonsense.

* TheStoic: His facial expression never changes...[[spoiler:until [[NotSoStoic Sougetsu struck him across the face.]]

*** [[spoiler:Moreover, upon ''finally'' reuniting with Miu face to face, the first thing he does is admit to killing her mother and outright state that anyone trying to stop the sunset needs to die...'''even his own daughter'''.]]

** He becomes a straight villain in the Eternal Sunset Arc, Yami attacks a japanese habor, killing many soldiers defending ships and bases. Saiga declines negotiation for peace and declares that the fleeting days of the whole world is coming to an end. He is even more than willing to kill an unarmed teenager, as he[[spoiler:(Nijima)]] presents a danger to his plans.

* KnightOfCerebus: His appearance during the Titan Arc reveals that he [[spoiler:Killed Tanaka's wife]] shortly after killing his master, and that [[she was pregnant with Tanaka's child.]] At the end of the Arc [[spoiler:Tanaka is killed, in front of Kenichi]] and marking the first onscreen [[spoiler:murder]] of an unambiguous good guy by a member of Yami.

* WouldHurtAChild: Nijima isn't exactly a child(or even human), but he's still just a boy. Saiga plans on killing him anyway, not even Masters like Hongo or James Shiba can distract him from it.

[[spoiler:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/yami_saiga_9160.png]]

* [[spoiler: OedipusComplex: By proxy since he is the leader of Yami.]]
* [[spoiler:PapaWolf: He didn't want to interfere in saving Miu, but ultimately Silkwat forced his hand.]]

* InstantExpert: Miu can master techniques, training, and even whole styles in a very little amount of time, around a week. [[spoiler: Which was made more clear when explained that Miu is the descendant of a tribe of people who specifically breed to create powerful offspring with exceptional martial arts talent. Not to mention her father is the son of the WorldsStrongestMan, as well as one of the most powerful martial artists in the series]]

** Go ahead and insult his masters. I dare you.

* CarefulWhatYouWishFor: In the beginning Kenichi had lots of ImagineSpots where he defeated all his masters, come future arc's where there are times it looks like his masters might lose he becomes a nervous wreck. [[spoiler: When it looks like Apachai has been defeated and died he falls hard into HeroicBSOD same for when Shigure gets captured when protecting him.]]

** Eventually averted when he starts relying on Ryūsui Seikūken and Mubyoshi.

An all female group of fighters who follow Freya and Kisara was once a part of.

[[folder:Hachiō Executioner Blade]]

* CharlesAtlasSuperpower: On par with the Elder

* FaceFramedInShadow

* {{BlackKnight}}: A Samurai version.

* BigDamnVillains: [[spoiler: Saves Kenichi and Miu from a high level master class weapon user, but only because Shigure paid him with a bar of gold.]]

* CainAndAbel: Kensei's older brother.

* DangerouslyGenreSavvy: [[spoiler:He knows not to underestimate Nijima, despite the latter having no fighting skills whatsoever, and knows that the computer virus Nijima's carrying to stop the Eternal Sunset plan is on ''none'' of the digital devices the boy has on his person--not even when Nijima strips down to his boxers is Saiga fooled for a second. Plus he would've killed Nijima right there if [[BVillainousRescue Hongo hadn't intervened]]]].

* BerserkButton: Using someone as a human shield or a blackmail tool, even if said person is an enemy prisoner; for him, that dishonors the way of the Satsujinken. [[spoiler:Mikumo got on the wrong end of a palm-attack from him for threatening to kill Shigure in an attempt to make the Ryuzanpaku fighters surrender]].

* [[spoiler:[[IllGirl Ill Boy]]: When he was a child, he had a disease that [[YourDaysAreNumbered would not have allowed him to live beyond age 20]]. His entering the world of martial arts and subsequent TrainingFromHell changed that]].
