Nanyou Gakuin (南陽 學院): Nanyang Academy

Sonsaku Hakufu (孫策 伯符): Sun Ce - Bofu

(Sun Ce, eldest son of Sun Jian, elder brother of Sun Quan. He was second leader of Wu, also called "Litte Conqueror" (小霸王, xiǎo bo wáng, syou-hakuou) )

Voiced by: Masumi Asano (Japanese); Carrie Savage (English)

• Manga version

The protagonist of the series. She is busty, blonde haired (light red in the anime), green-eyed, not terribly bright but immeasurably powerful despite only being a D-ranked toushi. Hakufu cares little for the politics involved between the toushi, only caring about fighting for the sake of fighting, but is staunchly against unnecessary violence and killing. Lately, however, with trouble brewing all around her, she is beginning to take up the mantle of a leader to protect her friends and family. Hakufu possesses a unique gift for predicting enemy moves very accurately by reading the flow of chi around her opponents, which occasionally makes her seem brighter than she is. For instance, she will put an end to a fight simply by stating the next moves of an opponent with frightening accuracy, breaking his will to fight after he realizes the futility of fighting her. She is also very good at "delayed striking"; basically she makes a feint attack in order to leave an invisible "chi bomb" which detonates moments later while the enemy's guard is down. She is skilled at "inner striking," which is another chi attack where she sends her chi into a person, causing damage to manifest at unusual places. She also inherited Master Chouchou's knowledge of chi magic, and, while currently unaware of this, is able to use it partially by instinct. Choushou passed it to her spiritually while Hakufu was unconscious; this is how she healed Koukin after she stabbed him and extracted the evil chi from his body into her own. She still has the evil chi contained inside her. It appears on her body as a skull-like mark and is slowly creeping up to her heart. Hakufu harbors a powerful dragon as one of the Three Great Rulers (founders of the Three Kingdoms, with Sousou and Ryuubi). Before joining Nanyo, Hakufu lived with her mother, Goei, outside of Kanto where she practiced feminine things like flower arrangement and the tea ceremony while paradoxically training heavily in martial arts. Goei was hoping to spare Hakufu her fate, but after Hakufu pummeled a travelling toushi looking for easy prey, they moved in with Koukin. She is very girlish and happy-go-lucky but is capable of wisdom though she has very bad luck. For instance, in one scene where she is just about to deliver a finishing blow to Kannei, her panties get caught on a branch, tripping her over. Nanyo has officially declared Hakufu to be their ruler. She is now trying to learn the Water Dragon Fist attack from Choukou with the help of Rikuson and Saji.

• Anime version

Her anime version is superficially similar but otherwise very different from her manga counterpart. While in the manga, Hakufu is a low ranked but extremely skilled fighter the anime Hakufu is both a low ranked and low skilled fighter. She has demonstrated none of her unique fighting gifts or chi powers and is arguably stupider. It takes her longer to figure out that people are trying to take advantage of her, is more prone to doing dumber things, and either doesn't mind or is unaware of people harassing or hitting on her. She demonstrates none of her momentary wisdom either. She relies heavily on her dragon or her personal skill alone. Even when possessed by her dragon, she is easily stopped by main characters she fights before any damage can be dealt, as opposed to her manga self which is extremely difficult to stop and required the aid of artifacts. Kanu, Saji, Ryofu and Ukitsu were able to stop her without any help. She also doesn't inherit Master Choushou's chi magic (who does not exist in the anime); instead this scene is replaced with training with Ukitsu's master Choukou. She is possessed by Toutaku at the end of the first season but is saved by her dragon who devours him.

Hakufu's role in Ikki Tousen Dragon Destiny is relegated to that of a minor character to allow other characters to have more show time. She only became a major character in the last few episodes, when the Battle of Chibi nears. She is still oblivious at how important a toushi's destiny is, especially her own. However, in this sequel her character wasn't portrayed to be as idiotic as the first season. She is actually more of a ditzy character than an idiot. Upset at being the cause for much of the violence in Kanto, she travelled to Kyosho to challenge Sousou to a duel in order to end the conflict. She had to take on Kanu instead, who took Sousou's place. During the fight Hakufu became possessed by her dragon. Sousou appeared while in full control of his own dragon and dealt a powerful blow that sent Hakufu flying out of the area, leaving all three schools to think she was killed. Her unconscious body was discovered in a lake by Hakugen, who brings her to Choukou. He performed a revival on Hakufu's but was only able to wake her dragon. Ukitsu gave her life in order to revive Hakufu's soul. Hakufu thus recovered and gained complete control of her dragon. She returned at the Battle of Chibi to fight Sousou, where she and Ryubi teamed up and defeated Sousou. At the end of the series Hakufu and Ryomou now work for a cosplay cafe, dressed as cat maids. She hopes to use the money to go on a 'battle tour' around the world.

Ryomou Shimei (呂蒙 子明): Lü Meng - Ziming

File:Ryomou-Ikki.jpg

(Lü Meng was the general serving Wu, the one who defeated Guan Yu, ill-deceased)

Voiced by: Yuko Kaida (Japanese); Willow Lane (English)

• Manga version

An odd girl with short blue hair and green eyes, a distinctive mole on her left cheek and a very strange history, mainly tied to her mysterious left-eye patch. Powerful and a B-rank, she is one of the Four Devas of Nanyo. She has a habit of wearing a blue miniskirted French maid outfit and specialises in professional wrestling moves, throws, and joint attacks, which she uses in conjunction with a pair of handcuffs she carries; she is also very proficient in making chi blasts. Her earlier life before she became a Toushi is unknown but is hinted as being tragic and painful. She, Teifu, and Saji have been best friends long before the start of the series. Ryomou is in love with Saji and cares for Teifu (who loves her). Ryomou has always fought for the fun of it and considers herself no one's woman. Presumably because of her dragon she has a minor split personality; one is fairly shy and normal and the other is psychosexual. Her psycho side is not nearly as bad as Ryubi, Sousou and Hakufu. Three years prior to the start of the series Ryomou fought Ryubi when her dragon had awakened and saved her life right before Ryubi attempted to rip her own heart out. In the process Ryubi's dragon possessed Ryomou's left-eye and now perfectly coexists with her. Its power even healed her completely after being mortally wounded and stabbed through the heart by Teni. No other characters seem to be in harmony with their dragons as much as Ryomou, but she still seals it with her eye-patch and is believed to be dying because of it. Very few are aware of this, and it is not stated whether she shares Ryubi's dragon or now has her own. While she has it, she is as powerful as the other Three Rulers. Her magical eye may be a reference to the Chinese idiom "To look at a person with a new eye" or reevaluate them or not to judge them by their appearance, an idiom attributed to Lu Meng who was as brilliant a scholar as he was a warrior.

• Anime version

Ryomou's anime incarnation is much more taciturn and serious than her manga self to the point of being almost unemotional. She is not shy or spoony and acts uninterested in relationships. In one scene she isn't even phased when Saji puts his hand down her shirt and gropes her. Her magatama is also shown as being silver in the first season, and by the second season she is arguably as strong as Myousai, though she retreats during their first battle in order to protect the Dragon Jade. She doesn't have a past relationship to Seito and Ryubi either. Instead her dragon appears to be her own, though how she got it is not known. She also appears to be closer to Hakufu than she does in the manga and goes out of her way to help the Nanyo leader whenever she can. She even went out on her own to find the Dragon Jade to save Hakufu. She was badly injured after being ambushed by Teni. Chou-un came to her rescue but Ryomou awakened her own dragon, defeating Teni. Chou-un was able to knock out Ryomou, bandage her and return her to Nanyo after stealing the Dragon Jade. Chou-un stated that if Ryomou was not injured during the awakening of her dragon, Ryomou would have been able to defeat her. Ryomou recovered to full strength and played a part in the Battle of Chibi, defeating Myosai. She is now working along with Hakufu in a cosplay cafe, dressed as a cat maid (Ryomou even wears a heart-shaped eye-patch).

Shuuyu Koukin (周瑜 公瑾): Zhou Yu - Gongjin

File:Shuuyu-Ikki.jpg

(Zhou Yu was the strategist of Wu, the Commander-in-Chief of Batte of Chi Bi, deceased caused by Zhuge Liang)

Voiced by: Satoshi Hino (Japanese); Ted Sroka (English)

• Manga version

Hakufu's rich cousin and an attractive pretty boy; both Kanu and Ukitsu have expressed exclusive interest in him. Although only a C-rank, his lack of confidence and his short resume of victories (or battles for that matter) keep him from becoming A-ranked despite already having the power of one. He has a crush on his cousin and is generally shy and well-meaning, making life very difficult for him. Oddly, Hakufu doesn't seem to mind being naked around him, showing how much she trusts him. But at times she thinks he is a pervert whenever he is caught in an embarressing situatuion (such as Hakufu catching him staring at her). He showed some great power when he defended Hakufu and Kakouton from the Ugan gang. He stayed behind to fight and eventually was captured, allowing the other two to escape. While being held captive in Kyosho, he was seduced by three beautiful girls (one of them being Seito's spy, Shoukan, who reveals her identity to him afterwards) in an attempt to make Koukin betray Nanyo and fight for Sousou. Although he resisted, Gakushin is now using her powers on him to learn the location of one of the Hyakuhekitou. He is now considered to be one of the Four Devas of Nanyo, taking Kannei's place.

• Anime version

Mostly the same, he is still a well-meaning young man who is attracted to his cousin (though the sexuality of it is toned down) but has yet to demonstrate his considerable power and serves even more so for comic relief than in the manga. He is the only character whose after-episode biography in the first season poked fun at him, saying that after he got lost in a forest Hakufu nicknamed him "The Lost Koukin-chan". As a child he was called "Crybaby Koukin" by other children, because he always cried when others bullied him. Hakufu was usually there to protect him from bullies. Koukin was unable to stop Hakufu's dragon when she fought Ukitsu; instead he got pummeled half to death in the attempt only to have Hakufu stop her dragon on her own. After hearing of Hakufu's demise, he blames Koumei for manipulating the events that led to Hakufu's fight with Sousou. However, Kanu proved to him that it was Hakufu's choice to challenge Sousou, and her fight with Kanu was one out of respect as toushi and not out of hatred. This leads to Nanyo and Seito forming an alliance to face Kyosho. He is now considered to be one of the Four Devas of Nanyo, taking Kannei's place. He returns to being a student after the Battle of Chibi.

Saji Genpou (左慈 元放): Zuo Ci - Yuanfang

File:Saji-Ikki.jpg

(Zuo Ci was the mysteric Taoshi who fooled Cao Cao, caused Cao Cao's death)

Voiced by: Showtaro Morikubo (Season 1), Kōji Yusa (Season 2), Justin Gross (English)

• Manga version

A mysterious man with blond hair and a light tan, his real identity in Ouin Shishi. One of Ryomou's oldest friends he has feelings for both her and Ryofu. However, he is a complete womanizer. His goals are uncertain as are his rank and power but he is easily an A-rank. One of his goals was to remove Toutaku from power. He is one of the Four Devas of Nanyo. At the moment Saji has doned the magatama of Ouin Shishi in an attempt to further Hakufu's mastery of the Water Dragon Fist. The magatama has given Saji great power and slightly alters his appearance.

• Anime version

He is more sinister in the anime than in the manga going so far as to have Kannei murder Enjutsu which drove him insane in order to take control of Nanyo for himself. He has the power to hypnotize and mind control humans and treated them more as pawns than friends. He is more obsessed with Toutaku's demise as well and tried to control Hakufu but failed when Toutaku took over. He resolves to atone himself afterwards and has secluded himself in the mountains somewhere. He reappears stopping Koukin from travelling to Kyosho to stop Hakufu from fighting Kanu. When he returns he already goes back to his womanizing ways by flirting with Ryomou, Ryubi, Chouhi and Bashoku at separate points in the anime. He and Ryomou defeat Myosai at the Battle of Chibi. He returns to his womanising ways again at the end of the series.

Gakushuu (樂就): Yue Jiu

File:Gakushuu-Ikki.jpg

(Yue Jiu served Yuan Shu, killed by Cao Cao's Forces)

Voiced by: Hajime Iijima (Japanese); Ivan Buckley (English)

• Manga version

A large muscular man with a scary face but a very nice personality. A man of honor to the very core, he prides himself in this and in his rippling muscles but usually gets beaten by all but the weakest of opponents. He is a B-rank and one of the Four Devas. He learned how to use chi blasts after Ryomou blasted him through a wall without even twitching. Despite his strength and training his skill is far poorer than that of Ryomou and Ryofu.

• Anime version

He plays a slightly more important role in the anime than in the manga, serving as a sort of de facto commander when Enjutsu and Saji go silent. He even investigates Enjutsu's odd behaviour and is first to find out he is dead but is captured by Kannei. He gets beaten even more than the manga only to miraculously recover an episode later. He is also shown as liking sweets and even holds a meeting with Koukin in an ice cream shop. In Dragon Destiny he becomes a lot tougher and was able to have an even fight with Myosai. At the end of the series he gets a job in a store, but risks getting fired for throwing a customer through a window when he would not stop harassing a woman.

Kannei Kouha (甘寧 興霸): Gan Ning - Xingba

File:Kannei2-Ikki.jpg

(Gan Ning was once a pirate who served Liu Biao, Huang Zu, then serving Wu)

Voiced by: Yoji Ueda (Japanese); Taliesin Jaffe (English)

• Manga version

A pervert and a highly dishonorable fighter but still one of the Four Devas. He specialises in using a pair of tonfas with hidden blades. Myosai used a pressure point move on him that would kill him in ten days. She promised to remove the effect if Kannei would kill Hakufu but he has failed to do this so far. Kannei is briefly seen again in volume twelve where we find out he has three days left to live.

• Anime version

He is crazier in the anime than in the manga and can be best described as a deranged chimpanzee. Saji drives him insane by making him kill Enjutsu. He then hypnotizes Kannei into believing Enjutsu is still alive and gives him orders which he suicidally follows. He is confined to an asylum at the end of the first season where he still remains. However, after Bashoku's framing of Kannei for the death of Kakuka, he mysteriously vanished from this confinement, which lead Koukin and Gakushuu into suspecting Seito may have been involved. His whereabouts as of right now are still unknown and he had no role in the second series.

Enjutsu Kouro (袁術/袁术 公路): Yuan Shu - Gonglu

File:Enjutsu-Ikki.jpg

(Yuan Shu was a major lord, and younger brother of Yuan Shao, once declared himself Emperor)

• Manga version

The presumed deceased former leader of Nanyo and once Toutako's lapdog, a complete weakling at that. Myosai mutilated his face when she attacked Nanyo looking for the Gyokuji. He played a role in Ryubi's first awakening of her dragon three years before the start of the series. Kaku offered to help Enjutsu get revenge on Teifu for pushing him around. They staged a phony video of Enjutsu's henchmen about to rape Ryomou (Kaku in disguise) and showed it to Teifu, threatening they would go ahead with the rape if he would not obey Enjutsu. When Teifu fell for the trick, Enjutsu sent him to assault Seito and attack Ryubi, eventually leading to her dragon awakening.

• Anime version

Dead before the anime even begins, he is killed by Kannei and only his withered corpse is seen.

Rikuson Hakugen (陸遜 伯言): Lu Xun - Boyan

File:Rikuson-Ikki.jpg

(Lu Xun was a young strategist of Wu, alongside Lü Meng, he defeated Guan Yu, caused Liu Bei's loss of Battle of Yi Ling)

Voiced by: Mikako Takahashi

• Manga version

A cute bespectacled junior of the other characters, she has recently joined the Nanyo gang with the intention of helping them beat Sousou. She is skilled in making poisons. According to Lu Xun's history (both in the manga and from other sources), Lu Xun is sometimes credited with the defeat of Guan Yu, not Lu Meng. The manga states that Rikuson defeated Kanu and Ryubi on Ryomou's orders, but history books variably give full credit to either Lu Meng or Lu Xun for coming up with the plan that led to the defeat of Guan Yu's forces (although in any case both are very important to this victory). History also states that Rikuson was Ryomou's protege and eventual successor. Rikuson refers to Ryomou as her big sister in the English translation, although it is not confirmed if they are related.

• Anime version

Although she is still a student in Nanyo, Hakugen is only seen with Ukitsu and Choukou in the anime. We find out that she was also trained by Choukou. She was the person who found Hakufu unconscious in a river after her battle with Sousou. She visits Ukitsu's grave with Choukou at the end of the series. She now helps Choukou train young toushi.

Roshuku Shikei (魯肅 子敬): Lu Su - Zijing

File:Roshuku-Ikki.jpg

(Lu Su was a strategist of Wu)

A student from Nanyo who appears wearing many bandages. Her injuries are never explained. She first appears among the Nanyo gang to announce that Kanu has been captured by Sousou. She comes up with a plan involving Nanyo and Seito to team up and launch a surprise attack on Koushou.

Teifuu Tokubou (丁奉 承淵): Ding Feng - Chengyuan

File:Teifuu-Ikki.jpg

• Manga version

A long time friend of Saji and Ryomou. He was once a strong toushi and was well respected by others. He often bullied Enjutsu, even though it was Enjutsu who was the leader of Nanyo at the time. He has had feelings for Ryumou for as long as they knew each other. Enjutsu got revenge when he and Kaku tricked Teifu into awakening Ryubi's dragon. He led Teifu to believe Ryomou would get raped if Teifu would not obey him. A few years later, Teifu was chosen to be one of Nanyo's representatives for a toushi tournament. He suffered a horrbile beating in a match that left him in a coma. He would have been killed if Ryomou had not interefered in the match, causing him to be disqualified. Teifu recovered from his coma but is now blind and nowhere near fully recovered. Teifu still jokes about blaming Ryomou for getting him disqualified. When Ryomou is left doubting her abilities after losing to Hakufu, Teifu offers her some much needed encouragement.

• Anime version

Some manga elemants are the same as the anime version. Teifu keeps his injuries and also his feelings for Ryomou. However he does not appear at all in Dragon Destiny, which is where Ryomou discovered her own dragon.

Youshuu Gakuen (揚州 學園): Yangzhou High School

Taishizi Shigi (太史慈 子義): Taishi Ci - Ziyi

File:Taishizi-Ikki.jpg

(Taishi Ci once served Liu Yao, then serving Sun Ce after losing his challenge battle)

Voiced by: Kenta Miyake (Japanese); Patrick Seitz (English)

• Manga version

A skilled and honorable fighter who refused to kill Hakufu despite being ordered to do so. He tried to stop other assassins from finishing his job but was stabbed in back as a consequence, putting him in a coma and paralyzing him from the waist down. However, he seems to be recovering from his injuries. He used to be one of Ukitsu's sparring partners. It is said that Uktisu always held back when sparring with Shigi because she liked him. It should be noted that she was still injuring him in these fights. While Shiji was kept in hospital, a girl from Nanyo often visited him and sat by his side. It turns out that the girl was transferring her chi into Shigi for him to recover from his injuries.

• Anime version

Exactly the same as in the manga, except there is no mention of his past with Ukitsu.

Ryuuyou (劉繇): Liu Yao - Zhengli

(Liu Yao was a major lord of Yangzhou)

Hannou (樊能): Fan Neng

Toutaku Chuuei (董卓 子穎): Dong Zhuo - Zhongying

File:Toutaku-Ikki.jpg

(Dong Zhuo was a tyrant who forced Emperor Shao to death, Emperor Xian to succeed the crown. Killed by Lü Bu)

Voiced by: Daisuke Namikawa (Japanese); Sam Riegel (English)

• Manga version

The evil leader of Rakuyou who until his death held most of the other schools in a vice-grip, possessing both the manpower and the Gyokuji as well as a Hyakuhekitou. In addition, he possesses Dragon of Hao abilities, yet he is not one of them. He is also a masochist which is seen through his self-mutilation. Exceptionally powerful and arrogant, he attempted to kill off Hakufu in order to change his destiny. He eventually ends up killing Choushou, and is brought to a near-death state by Ryofu directly after the fight with Choushou. He partially changes his fate by committing suicide instead of letting Ryofu kill him. Though the end results are still the same, he at least died with some self-satisfaction. Three years before the start of the manga, he devised a plan which led to Ryubi's first dragon awakening.

• Anime version

He is just as evil and just as crazy, though he has a somewhat more refined mannerism to his sinister nature. He is far more skilled in the anime as well; he demonstrated the power to split a watermelon and a table with his chi into perfect pieces with just a tap from his fingers and even poisoned Hakufu with chi. He was also able to possess her and take control of her body. He also seems to hate watermelons, supposedly because opening them reminds him of the inside of a human's head. His body is destroyed by Ryofu, who uses a double suicide chi blast, at which point he transmigrates into Hakufu only to be eaten by her dragon later on. It seems as though he had a change of heart on the brink of his death, revealing to Hakufu the truth about Saji, that he is the plotter behind all this and that Saji Genpou is not his real identity. He also uses a bit of his remaining strength after being destroyed by Ryofu's double suicide to remove the Fa Jing curse he had previously lain upon her.

Ryofu Housen (呂布 奉先): Lü Bu - Fengxian

File:Ryofu2-Ikki.jpg

(Lü Bu was the strongest warrior of Sanguo Period, double-betrayed his adopted-fathers Ding Yuan and Dong Zhuo)

Voiced by: Akeno Watanabe (Japanese); Robin Rhodpa (English)

• Manga version

A strong bisexual fighter with a very promiscuous personality and a habit for dressing skimpy. She was very skilled at making chi-blasts and was in love with both Saji and her best friend Chinkyuu. She had a love-hate relationship with Saji, who she claims once raped her (Saji only half denies this, claiming that she was not raped because she enjoyed it). Despite trying her best to escape her destiny, she ended up causing it anyway. Afflicted with a deadly illness that would kill her before adulthood, she ended up being manipulated by Saji into causing Toutaku's death. When she found out that Chinkyuu was raped, she went in search of revenge as her last living act. She was found by Myosai, and the two fought each other. Myosai's skill added with Ryofu's failing health was enough for Ryofu to be defeated. She was saved from Myosai's killing blow by Chinkyuu. Realizing that she was moments away from dying, Ryofu and Chinkyuu then committed a double suicide, dying happily together as their predecessors did 1800 years before.

• Anime version

Unlike her manga self, who is a skilled tactician, her anime self is more of a thuggish brute. She didn't plan on acquiring the Gyokuji or betraying Toutaku and was more easily manipulated by Saji. She was still sick however. She was more emotional as well and more promiscuous and cruel. She actually raped Ryomou in the anime opposed to simply teasing her in the manga. She was just as powerful, however, as her manga version. In the end she died alone miserably by using a chi blast to commit suicide with Toutaku. Chinkyuu died earlier in the series and so did not join her. The second season recalls a different scene however with Ryofu wearing the clothes she did in the manga when she fought Toutaku tackling him off a cliff but also accounts it as double suicide. Whether that is meant literally and that the past events have been changed metaphorically where in which it was Ryomou's perspective or the aura-sensed perspective of others that has changed is not known.

Kaku Bunwa (賈詡 文和): Jia Xu - Wenhe

(Jia Xu was a talented strategist serving Dong Zhuo, Li Jue and at last Cao Cao)

Voiced by: Haruhi Terada (Season 1), Shiho Kawaragi (Season 2), Hunter MacKenzie Austin (English)

• Manga version

A bespectaled, long raven-haired beauty who was once Toutaku's second-in-command. Intelligent, seductive, and manipulative, her power lay in manipulating others into doing her dirty work as she is otherwise an average fighter. She helped set up the events that led to Ryubi's dragon being awakened three years before the start of the series. She offered to help Enjutsu get the respect he should have had as Nanyo's leader at the time. Knowing Teifu's feelings for Ryomou, Kaku disguised herself as Ryomou and faked a video in which she was about to be raped by Enjutsu's henchmen. Teifu fell for it and was forced into attacking Seito and look for Ryubi in order to protect Ryomou. In reality, the entire plan was devised by Toutaku in order to see how powerful Ryubi's dragon was. After Toutaku's death, Kaku switched sides and joined Sousou, who accepted her with open arms. She became (or always has been) Kakuka's lover, plotting to take advantage of Sousou's power. She was genuinely in love with him until he was taken out of action. However, she gets into a sexual relationship with whoever she plots with (Toutaku, Kakuka and now currently Jyunyu). She knows of Koukin's crush on Hakufu (although it 's possible that everyone in the series knows it). She also teased Koukin by taking off her underwear in front of him before three other Kyosho girls seduced him in an attempt to make him defect from Nanyo.

• Anime version

She acts more submissive in the anime than in the manga but is also more trusting and trustworthy. She is less seductive and does not act as calculating or as cunning. In fact, she seems almost caring towards Sousou and his friends, leading them to trust her more or at least be less suspicious of her. She also gives out the orders to Myosai to search for the Dragon Jade. She could have been working for her own needs after she was told by Sousou that she was no longer necessary for his plans. However, she was not involved in the Battle of Chibi. The only time we see her after she was removed from her role is when she meets up with Kakouton at the end of the series.

Rikaku (李傕): Li Jue

File:Rikaku-Ikki.jpg

(Li Jue along with Guo Si rebelled and caused Wang Yun's death after Dong Zhuo's death. Killed by Lü Bu)

• Manga version

The man who caught Chinkyuu trying to steal the Gyokuji and rapes her as punishment under Kaku's orders. He was killed by Ryofu.

• Anime version

The same as manga.

Kayuu (華雄): Hua Xiong

(Chen Gong was the most loyal officers serving Lü Bu, killed along with Lü Bu by Cao Cao)

Voiced by: Hiroe Oka (Japanese); Stephanie Sheh (English)

• Manga version

Ryofu's best friend since childhood and also her lesbian lover. She was a C-rank with great potential. While Ryofu was battling Toutaku, Chinkyuu knocked out Kaku to prevent her from helping Toutaku. Kaku got her revenge when she caught Chinkyuu stealing the Gyokuji and got Rikaku to rape her. When Chinkyuu recovers from her injuries, she saves Ryofu from being killed by Myosai. However, she realises that Ryofu is moments away from dying due to her illness. Since she was loyal and in love with Ryofu, Chinkyuu decides to stay by her friend's side and commits suicide with her instead of surrendering to Sousou.

• Anime version

Almost the same other than it shows her explicitly sleeping with Ryofu. She dies in hospital from injuries inflicted when she was raped. She also tried to steal the Gyokuji of her own accord rather than being ordered to do so by Ryofu. Chinkyuu wanted to present it to Ryofu as a gift before she died.

Kakouton Genjou (夏侯惇 元讓): Xiahou Dun - Yuanrang

(Xiahou Dun was one of the most loyal warriors of Cao Cao, lost his one eye when protecting Cao Cao)

Voiced by: Yoji Ueda (Season 1), Shuhei Sakaguchi (Season 2), Josh Phillips (English)

• Manga version

Affectionately referred to as Basics Ton-chan by Hakufu for his love of using only the most basic moves in combat abhorring (and perhaps being incapable of) any other kind of combat. A honorable but eccentric young man, he goes to great lengths to repair the damage done to any place he fights, patching walls and pavement and believing such a place to be a dojo he must maintain. He is very old friends with Sousou and Kakuka and has a crush on Hakufu, who is on very good terms with him. Like his predecessor, Genjou had his left eye gouged out this time by a kunai-wielding assassin (Xiahou lost his eye to an archer) trying to defend Sousou before his dragon awakened.

• Anime version

Mostly the same in the first season, acting as comic relief. Goei told him how to beat Hakufu during the Great Toushi Tournament and helped him by distracting her daughter while Kakouton injured her legs. Goei also flirted with him continually, leading most of the Toushi community to conclude that he likes mature women, a belief he vehemently denies to no avail. He still likes Hakufu, who is jealous of her mother and angry with him because she believes the rumors.

In Ikkitousen Dragon Destiny, he is however portrayed as a much more serious character as compared to the first season. He is best friends with Sousou and Kakuka. After being ordered by Sousou to avenge Kakuka's death, he decided to do it his own way, instead of attacking in a way that betrays his beliefs. Kakouton had been growing aware of the increasing blood-thirsty behavior of Sousou's Dragon. Sousou is becoming extremely violent more often. Kakouton decided to confront the "Devil King". Unfortunately he was overpowered and was presumed to be killed by Sousou. At the end we discover that Kakouton is still alive when Kaku finds him sitting alone in a street.

Sousou Moutoku (曹操 孟德): Cao Cao - Mengde

File:Sousou-Ikki.jpg

(Cao Cao was the supreme leader of Wei, famous for his cold-heartlessness and brilliance)

Voiced by: Susumu Akagi

• Manga version

The eccentric leader of Kyosho and best friend to Genjou and Houkou and a B-rank fighter. Until his dragon awoke, he did not care much for the state of affairs, but afterward he became extremely violent, blood-thirsty, and power-mad because he is completely possessed by his dragon. However, he is more interested in controlling powerful toushi than getting precious artifacts such as the Gyokuji and the Hyakuhekitou. When Kanu refused to be freed in return for Ryubi surrendering the Gyokuji, Sousou happily accepts Kanu's request and orders the Gyokuji to be returned. Sousou often criticizes Kaku for wearing glasses, telling her she looks cuter without them. Easily the strongest character at the moment. He also has strange dreams involving an old man with writing on his forehead asking Sousou to avenge him.

• Anime version

He is less sinister a character in the anime and instead seems more like a disturbed and troubled man trying to fight his dragon. He is much calmer and more caring until he awakes his dragon. When Kanu was captured and taken prisoner, Sousou broke her out and persuaded her to join him. Kanu proved herself by fighting Hakufu one-on-one. Sousou was watching the fight on top of a nearby building and when Hakufu spotted him, she charged at him using the power of her dragon. Sousou countered with his own dragon and blew Hakufu a great distance away. While in his dragon state he almost killed his best friend, Kakouton. He was chained to a wall while being watched over by Chuukou to prevent him from killing anyone else. In the Battle of Chibi he merged with Shiba-i's evil powers and he attempts to kill Ryubi. He was defeated, and presumably killed, by Hakufu and Ryubi.

(Guo Jia was the great strategist of Cao Cao, helped him to eliminate Yuan Shao's sons - Tan, Xi, Shang even after his death in the age of 38)

Voiced by: Takayuki Fujimoto

• Manga version

Best friend to Sousou and Kakouton, he was destined to die of cancer but somehow managed to be cured. He oddly flickered like a ghost around Kaku, his sweet-heart. Reasonably strong and highly manipulative (perhaps even against Sousou himself), he was put into a coma by Bashoku Youjou, who framed Kannei for the attack.

• Anime version

The same as in the manga except that he doesn't suffer from cancer and is killed by Bashoku instead of just being badly injured. He is stabbed in the heart rather than in the back and dies from his wounds. He was much stronger as well, being able to defeat Ryomou very easily in the first season. Bashoku had to resort to poisoning before being able to kill him.

Kakouen Myousai (夏侯淵 妙才): Xiahou Yuan - Miaocai

File:Kakouen-Ikki.jpg

Voiced by: Eri Kitamura

• Manga version

A female assassin Sousou once saved, earning her total loyalty. She is extremely skilled, even more so than Ryofu, very durable to the point of seemingly not feeling any pain and specializes in pressure point attacks. She uses a jade shot attached to a very long metal wire as a projectile and for restraining her foes. She develops a deep respect for Chou-un when they fought each other. Chou-un recognises that Myosai is fighting for someone who is very important in her life (Sousou). Myosai attacks her own allies when they catch Ryubi, claiming that she wanted to capture Ryubi herself. She was stabbed from behind by one of Sousou's toushi. Chou-un defeated the toushi and ordered him to bring Myosai back to Kyosho safely. There is a running joke in the English translation that involves Myosai's victims noticing a urine stain in her underwear.

• Anime version

Same as in the manga, in the anime it is revealed that Sousou found her years ago in the war zone in a jungle somewhere presumably in South East Asia. Myosai was dressed in army fatigues suggesting she was a rebel or revolutionary of some sort. She was nearly raped by a soldier (she isn't wearing pants and her underwear has been pulled down). The soldier is shown with a bullet wound in his back. Either Myousai killed him herself or Sousou did to save her (he is not shown holding any weapons but Myousai is holding a gun). Sousou is dressed as a tourist and it is presumed that he took her back to Japan with him. Myosai was defeated by Ryomou & Saji in the Battle of Chibi. She was also the only Kyosho member whose fate was not revealed in the anime's ending so it is unknown if she is alive or not.

• Manga version

The true shadow leader of Kyosho and arch-nemesis of Koumei. She uses a wheelchair because she lost her feet, although it was never explained how it happened. She also has a dragon tattoo on her right hand. Teni looked up to Shibai and called her "Maria-sama", treating her as a divine higher power. Shibai is secretly running Kyosho and is also Sousou's lover. She is secretly manipulating Sousou towards an ill-defined goal. She shows no sympathy towards her loyal toushi. For example, she did not show any remorse towards Teni after she was horribly injured by Ryomou during their battle. She was almost killed by Sousou during one of his dragon stages but was saved just in time by Kyocho.

• Anime version

The same as in the manga. Her tattoos glow whenever she uses her chi. In the anime she plans to send the world into chaos by using Sousou and other evil spirits. During the Battle of Chibi she attempted to run over her enemies in a car but crashed. It was during this she revealed that she could still actually walk, her crippleness was thought to be a deception tactic. She attacked Ryubi but was cut down by Kanu. She merged her powers with Sousou and her physical body crumbled away.

A psychotic powerful archer and assassin barely in her teen years. She is Christian and believes Shiba-I to be the Madonna and worships her unquestioningly. She was raped by her father as a child, but she killed him in self-defence. She spent her early school life being abused mostly by most of the other children. She learned how to fight, kill, and play the guitar from Shiba-I, whom she adores. She tried to assassinate Ryomou and retrieve the Gyokuji but Ryomou's dragon woke up and ripped off her right arm, nearly killing her during the process. She is currently in a coma. She possessed a Hyakuhekitou called the 100-Swing Blade Dragon hidden inside an electric guitar.

• Anime version

The same as the manga, except she did not have a Hyakuhekitou. She did not lose her arm to Ryomou during their fight but was still horribly injured in the fight. Instead of fighting Kouchu in the anime, she fights Chou-un instead. At the end of the series we see her fully recovered and tending to horses with Chouryo.

She is somehow able to calm down Sousou when he is consumed by his dragon.

It is possible that she treats Shibai as a higher power, much like Teni does but not as devoted. She is ordered by Shibai to keep an eye on Sousou if he becomes too powerful. She is the only one capable of calming down Sousou when he is in his dragon state. After the Battle of Chibi she returns to playing for her volleyball team.

Similar to the manga, but instead tells Kaku that it is Shibai who is taking over her position as Sousou's strategist, not himself (which prompted in the anime Kaku's determination to fight for herself). He also doesn't command the Ugan group. Though he does come to his manga's counterpart's conclusion that Shibai does not care after she abandons Teni. He is often seen pushing Shibai's wheel-chair.

Voiced by: Yumiko Kobayashi (Japanese); Amy Treadwell (English)

• Manga version

Ukitsu is a dark-skinned girl who is destined to kill Hakufu. She wears extremely heavy body weights and is an amazing fighter who has mastered nearly every type of martial arts in existence, using them instinctly and masterfully with nearly no chi whatsoever. She is nicknamed "Genius Ukitsu" because of her talents and knowledge of martial arts. Since she does not use her chi to fight, Hakufu had a major disadvantage against her. She was unable to predict Ukitsu's moves by reading her chi. Ukitsu's views on fighting are similar to those of Hakufu. She loves to fight and is motivated by taking on stronger opponents (which before facing Hakufu rarely happened). Hakufu's dragon state easily overpowered Ukitsu and nearly killed her until she was unexpectedly saved by Koukin. Ukitsu became depressed while she was recovering from the fight and has kept a low profile lately. She had a vision of Hakufu's dragon flying through the skies towards Nanyo, which should inspire her to return to action.

• Anime version

She plays a more significant role in the anime than in the manga. She first appears saving Hakufu from two perverted men in a karaoke bar (Hakufu was oblivious to their intentions). She is continually seen watching over Hakufu as her master Choukou intends to help Hakufu harness her dragon. Ukitsu willingly follows Choukou's orders and challenges Hakufu to a fight several times but each time Hakufu passes out for some other reason. They finally fight at the end where, unlike the manga, Hakufu manages to tame her dragon before she can injure Ukitsu. The two become friends and agree to fight again, this time as friends and not as Toushi. They seal their bond by removing their magatama.

Ukitsu also appears in Ikki Tousen Dragon Destiny, this time trying to fully revive Hakufu. We find out that she is also friends with Hakugen. According to Choukou, Ukitsu is the only person who is able to revive Hakufu because it is her destiny to kill her. Since Ukitsu is the one who's fate is to kill Hakufu, then theoretically she can also save her. Choukou also mentioned that her defeat at the hands of Hakufu in the past affected her greatly, an event that was interpreted differently than as shown in the first season. So it is possible that the first season's ending is not considered to be canon. This would explain why Ukitsu and her school never helped Hakufu and Nanyo in the war despite the fact that the two schools formed an alliance at the end of the first season. Ukitsu was successful in reawakening Hakufu but passed away shortly afterwards, sacrificing her life to save Hakufu's. She was buried near a waterfall where she trained.

• Manga version

Believed to be the most feared and powerful Toushi around, she even carries the nearly invincible Blue Dragon Crescent Blade from her predecessor as well as the legendary sword Kusanagi; she also has overwhelming chi. She believes her destiny is to die protecting Ryuubi. It is believed by many characters that Ryomou will one day kill her. Presumed to be an old friend of Kakouton and Kakuka and is possibly a lesbian. Despite this, however, she seems to have taken an interest in Koukin. She is eventually forced to side with Sousou and plan an at tack on Nanyo in order to protect Ryubi from Kyosho's toushi, who would certainly be after her. When she surrenders she is treated as a prisoner. She is handcuffed, beaten, and stripped of her clothing. When Ryubi submits the Gyokuji for Kanu's release, Kanu refuses to accept the offer and stays as a prisoner under her own will. Sousou respects Kanu's wishes and orders the Gyokuji to be returned to Seito. Kanu is able to break free from her handcuffs, clearly holding back while she was captive. She is now treated more fairly while being kept under Sousou's orders.

• Anime version

Personality is similar to the manga. In the first series, Kanu only appears in two episodes to fight with Ryomou and Hakufu (including Hakufu's dragon-mode). Kanu's over-confidence led to her arm being broken by Ryomou. She then gets serious and beats off Ryomou using only her legs and still manages to win a second the fight against Hakufu while she was in her dragon state. Kanu was expected to win the toushi tournament before she unexpectedly forfeits after her fight against Hakufu. Animation-wise, this Kanu shows both her eyes, which is a totally different hairstyle/look compared to the manga and second season. The blade part of her weapon was never shown in the first series. The Seito school color also appears to be teal instead of blue.

In Ikki Tousen Dragon Destiny, Kanu is similar to the manga version in terms of appearance. Like her predecessor in Romance of the Three Kingdoms, she is one of the pivotal characters in the events of the series, as she lives her destiny as Ryuubi's protector and as one of the strongest toushi alive. Being the main character in this sequel, Kanu's invincibility was played down to make her character more believable; she wasn't portrayed as strong as compared to the manga and the first anime series. Kanu is less flirty, less confident, insecure, and her intentions towards Ryuubi are more obvious. She even admits her love for Ryuubi to Koukin.

When she sides with Sousou and with Hakufu looking to challenge Sousou to a fight, Kanu accepts the fight on his behalf. She is seen with a new dark, yet still revealing costume, possibly acting as a metaphor for defecting to Kyosho's evil leader. However, Kanu's loyalty to Ryuubi doesn't shake nor does her superiority over other toushi (as Chou-un pointed out and later proven by Kanu herself when she broke free of her handcuffs under her own power, she could have just left Kyosho if she wanted to). She made it clear to Kakouton that she will kill Sousou if he attempts to assault Seito or harm Ryubi in anyway. She was told to leave Kyosho by Kakouton and she returned to her own school. However she takes Chou-un's advice to stay away from Ryuubi, allowing Ryuubi to blossom as Seito's leader. She returned at the Battle of Chibi to protect Ryuubi. At the end of the series Kanu is still with Ryuubi, as her guardian and close friend. A joke at the end has Ryuubi recommending Kanu to read a book called Ikki Tousen. The book is meant to be Romance Of the Three Kingdoms, which the series is based on.

A clutzy, ditzy bespectacled bookworm with seemingly no combat skills. She can't even swim. She has a fear of homosexuals but sometimes wonders if she is homosexual herself. She is convinced that Kanu and Chouhui are lesbians who are attracted to her. Ryuubi is destined to be a great leader but is presently too timid and carefree to become one. However, she is still more than willing to do her best for her friends. She is best friends with Chouhi and possesses the most destructive dragon seen, which is so evil that it radiates enthropic energy and nearly made her disembowel herself before Ryomou, Chouhi, and Kanu managed to stop her, resulting in all of them being critically wounded. She seems unaware of this and is prone to occasional highly destructive out-bursts when her dragon rouses. These outbursts happen when Ryubi sees her friends get hurt in battle.

• Anime version

The same except she has no fear of homosexuals. Also the timing of her first dragon possession is different. The first time she is overwhelmed by her dragon in the manga was three years before the start of the manga. In the anime, it happens during the second series. When Kanu was forced to surrender to Sousou, her determintaion to rescue Kanu has her slowly gaining control of her dragon's powers. She realised that her school had to go into battle with Nanyo and Kyosho in order to finally end the conflict. Although she was targeted by many toushi in the battle, she was capable of protecting herself. Kanu's return gave Ryuubi more encouragment. She was almost strangled to death by Sousou but was saved by the returning Hakufu. Both Ryubi and Hakufu teamed up to destroy Sousou and win the battle for Seito and Nanyo. She is now back to her normal book-reading self.

She presents herself with her eyes closed most of the time and is the only girl in Seito that does not wear the standard Seito High school girl uniform. She believes that violence is unnecessary and that blood-shed can be avoided to solve conflicts. She has deep respect for Kanu while their strengths rival one another.

Eyes closed, white hair, and carries a Japanese sword. Shiryu is arguably the most skilled toushi in the anime so far. She seems nearly invincible in the manga and in Dragon Destiny. Instead of being sent by Koumei to save Ryuubi from Myosai's assassination attempt, Chou-un was sent by Kanu to defeat Teni and Ryumou's dragon before claiming the Dragon Jade. There is no way to tell her true protential because of her limited fights and her lack of seriousness in them. She has stated that with full stregth, Ryomou with her awakened dragon could defeat her. So far no toushi has given her a real challenge or even put a tear on her uniform. When Kanu returns from Kyosho, Chou-un advises her to stay away from Ryubi for now, to see if Ryubi is capable of leading their school on her own. She then travelled to Chouku's home. She spotted Hakufu's dragon during Hakufu's revival. She was about to attack it but Ukitsu stopped her. Choukou explained to her that the dragon was a part of Hakufu. Chou-un was very effective in the Battle of Chibi. She protected Hakufu and Ryubi from demons that were summoned by Sousou.

Ryoushuu Gakuen (洛陽 高校) - Liangzhou High School

The Liangzhou High School students were the original main characters when the manga was first being planned. Although the original and final manga designs have similarites, there were some differences in the story. An example is that it was only the magatamas that originally had the spirits of past warriors. The characters were not modern day equivalents of important warriors from 1800 years ago, so it was likely that character's destinies would not be featured in the storyline. A few other characters like Kakouton and Kakuka appeared with Kakouton having a much different personality while Ryofu's/Lu Bu's (and that Ryofu is a guy, not a girl) magatama was used to turn a toushi into a violent maniac. The pilot chapter is included in Volume 1 of the Battle Vixens manga.

Instead of having a dragon state, she had the actual spirit of Ma Chao kept in her magatama. When Mouki found her friends seriously hurt in an attack, Ma Chao awakened and temporarily took over her body. She became very powerful and violent, much like Hakufu in her dragon state.

She unexpectedly moves in with Koukin and Hakufu. While she teases Koukin for his crush on her daughter, she is against the idea of Koukin and Hakufu being in a romantic relationship. She accepts Hakufu's fate and shows no resistance whenever her daughter faces her apparent doom. However, when she found out that Kakouton protected Hakufu from the Ugan gang, she becomes more optimistic about everyone's attempts to change their fates.

• Anime version

She is otherwise the same except that she is much stronger in the anime. She regularly punishes Hakufu, especially when Hakufu calls her an old hag. These punishments are usually spankings but can sometimes be something more violent. In one scene, she throws Hakufu through a door. Despite being inactive, she is still a very skillful fighter. She was able to defeat Toutoutsu and his Ugan gang after they attack Koukin and Hakufu outside their home. She is attracted to Kakouton and flirts with him whenever they meet, leading Kakouton's friends to think they are in a relationship.
