Akaza

Hakuji Soyama (a.k.a. Akaza, Shura, The Martial Artist, The Fist Demon, The human Demon, The demonic Hunter, The Hunter without Weapons, The Demon Child)

Physical Description

General Physical Condition

Akaza is a very muscular young man of average height with skin so fair it appeared bright green-tinged white, decorated by a pattern of thick blue lines, which resembles the criminal tattoos he has in human human. Akaza has short, bright pink hair that fluffed out around his head and inward-tilting yellow eyes with pink eyelashes and blue sclera that somewhat resembled cracked glass.

Body Features

The lines on his face curved through each of his eyes from below his ears to over his temples, another blue line running from the center of his hairline to the bridge of his nose, with two more lines running around his neck, three others branching off the lower one to his torso. The middle line ran directly down his chest to halfway down his stomach, and the other two branched off to the sides over each side of his chest to join the two other lines. This same three-line pattern also repeated around his waist. On his arms, lines were running down the front of his shoulders that ran into two more, which went around his biceps before continuing to run down to his wrists, below which each of his fingers was also dark blue with an orange fingernail, his toes also sharing this unusual appearance.   In human form, Hakuji has the same hair, just colored black rather than pink, and pale blue eyes with unusually-colored light pink eyelashes. He is also very muscular as a human and beares three black criminal tattoos on each forearm.

Special abilities

Indomitable Will: Akaza demonstrated extraordinary willpower and unwavering determination. His powers of regeneration evolved to the point where he could regrow his head, driven solely by his refusal to accept defeat. He endured relentless attacks from much larger opponents and sustained numerous beatings, all in pursuit of healing his sick father.   Tactical Intellect: Akaza possesses combat experience and martial arts training, enabling him to fight with exceptional foresight and tactical intelligence. Even Giyu was astonished by Akaza's ability to instantly adapt and evolve, predicting and countering attacks with equal power. Akaza demonstrated natural aptitude in martial arts by defeating trained swordsmen from neighboring dojos while learning Keizo's Soryu Style, doing the same to grown men before he even started training.   Immense Regeneration: As a demon, Akaza possesses one of the most extraordinary regenerative abilities, giving him the capacity to instantly recover from both minor and severe slash wounds, and even regenerate lost limbs with minimal effort. Despite having his head cut off by a Nichirin Sword, he miraculously survived and grew a new head afterward. Even without a head, Akaza's regeneration speed remained nigh-instantaneous. Additionally, he seemingly had precise control over his own regeneration speed, as evident when he intentionally slowed down his recovery to display his sliced arm and chest inflicted by Kyojuro then promptly healed the injury.   Immense Speed & Reflexes: Akaza's incredible speed was prominently displayed during his training battle against Kyojuro. He moved so swiftly that even Tanjiro could not perceive his movements. Akaza was able to move at such burst of speeds that he appeared to teleport, even managing to surprise Tanjiro, who has heightened sensory abilities. He demonstrated the ability to keep up with and outpace the Hashira, the most powerful fighters in the Monster Hunter Guild, including matching the speed of Giyu Tomioka, one of the fastest fighters.   Immense Durability: Akaza possesses exceptional durability. Even the powerful Hashira, Kyojuro Rengoku, had difficulty inflicting significant damage on Akaza during their intense traning battle. Despite using a katana and exhibiting superhuman strength, Kyojuro struggled to effectively cut through Akaza's body, demonstrating the demon's immense durability. Notably, Akaza's neck, like that of all demons, is particularly tough, making it especially challenging to inflict fatal injuries.   Immense Strength: Akaza possesses incredulous physical strength, which had been showcased multiple times, most notably when he punched or kicked, which were strong enough to break the ground and easily kill people. Every one of his strikes was strong enough to cause cuts, shatter ribs and smash eyes. Akaza also easily broke Giyu's sword in half with a single side punch and completely shattered Tanjiro's Nichirin Sword with a flurry of punches. Combined with his Blood Demon Art, his strength was further increased, allowing him to cause craters in the ground by simply punching it. Even as an 11-year-old boy, Akaza was able to completely knock several grown men unconscious in a fight with nothing but his bare fists and legs. At the age of 18, he is easily able to overpower, dismember and mutilate 67 armed adult kendo masters on his own with his bare fists.   Unlimited Stamina & Endurance: Like all demons, Akaza possesses infinite stamina and vitality, never tiring and remaining in optimal physical and mental condition indefinitely, enduring waves of onslaught as if it were nothing. In his battle against Kyojuro, his arm was split open by Kyojuro's Rising Scorching Sun. Yet he remained unfazed by the slash, even complimenting his blade. Despite the intense attack, Akaza seemed more focused on marveling at Kyojuro's technique rather than the damage he sustained. Additionally, throughout all his battles, he has never showed signs of pain or agony, even after getting his limbs sliced off or when he was inflicted with numerous slash wounds and injuries. Furthermore, Akaza was one of the only ones to withstand Tanjiro's headbutt without any signs of pain afterward, even complimenting it. Akaza demonstrated superhuman endurance at the age of 11, as he endured 100 consecutive beatings that could make a grown man go numb, thus earning the moniker of "Demon Child."   Extrasensory Perception: Akaza possesses supernaturally enhanced sensory abilities that allows him to perceive things beyond the normal range of human perception. In addition to sensing the auras of Demons and Humans, Akaza can also detect what he referred to as "Fighting Spirit (闘気 Tōki?)", which encompassed a person's will to fight and their intent to kill. With this ability, he could assess the strength or weakness of individuals with just a glance, anticipate his opponents' attacks and weaknesses, and sense their presence within the environment, enabling him to react to attacks from unexpected angles and blind spots. According to Giyu, this ability enablea him to instantly evolve and adapt to any attack or technique, even allowing him to predict his opponents' movements and how to counter them with equal power. He was even able to locate Giyu and Tanjiro from a considerable distance. Akaza's senses are so acute that he can effectively fight and determine his opponents' locations even without a head, effectively making him deaf and blind, and overpowering Giyu in the process.   Master Hand-to-hand Combatant: As his most notable attribute, Akaza possesses exceptional prowess in hand-to-hand combat and martial arts, both as a human and a demon. Akaza demonstrated exceptionally prodigious abilities in unarmed combat, effortlessly overpowering several grown men at the young age of 11, despite lacking any formal martial arts training. As a young adult, he singlehandedly annihilated 67 adult kendo masters with his bare fists, brutally mutilating their bodies until they were mangled piles of flesh with his bare fists. His hand-to-hand combative prowess is further augmented to the point he can fight effectively at speeds faster than the eye can see while fully utilizing his bare-fisted martial arts skills for both offense and defense against the most powerful of enemies. Furthermore, combined with his Blood Demon Art and potent physical abilities, every one of his punches and kicks become extremely lethal, with each blow capable of shattering the ground or breaking ribs, making him an extremely dangerous opponent. That, combined with his martial arts experience, makes Akaza nearly unparalleled in hand-to-hand combat.   Soryu Style (素流式 Soryū Shiki?): A bare-fisted martial arts style taught to him by Keizo, a martial arts expert, when he lived with him and cared for Koyuki. The Soryu Style utilized a user's arms and legs to unleash swift and powerful strikes that target an opponent's neck and weapon. At the start of a battle, the user begins by entering a stance performed by bending their knees in a half-crouch position, extending their right arm with a half-clenched fist facing his body and bending his left arm with an open palm or a nearly identical stance except they open their palm on their right arm while fully clenching their fists in a downwards bend on their left arm. Akaza uses the Soryu Style as the main inspiration of his Destructive Death (破壊殺 Hakai Satsu?) martial arts.   Bell Splitter (鈴割り Suzu Wari?): A technique where Akaza strucks a sword from the side as it was descending to break it with little effort. Akaza is most proficient in this technique, likely due to having fought the neighboring dojo's swordsmen and murdering 67 of them when he was 18, which would likely have required him to utilize that move many times to overpower them.   Destructive Death (破壊殺 Hakai Satsu?): Akaza's Blood Demon Art revolved around martial arts, merging the manipulation of destructive shockwaves and the Soryu-style martial arts he mastered. The shockwaves he controls appear in a striking blue hue and can manifest in various forms, such as nigh-invisible air pressure, circular energy-like shockwaves, or cannon-shaped spikes. He cangenerate them at will, from any distance, and seemingly any part of his body. In combat, Akaza infuses his own punches and kicks with his shockwaves to amplify their destructive capabilities, enveloping his every strike in a faint blue light.   At the start of a battle, Akaza initiats his Blood Demon Art by deploying a special technique called Technique Development (術式展開 Jutsushiki Tenkai?). Akaza starts by going into a stance unique to the Soryu Style, which has two versions. He performs the first stance by bending his knees in a half-crouch position, extending his right arm with a half-clenched fist facing his body, and bending his left arm with an open palm; the second version is nearly identical, except he opened his palm on his right arm while fully clenching his fists in a downwards bend on his left arm.   Compass Needle (羅針 Rashin?): Akaza manifests a light blue snowflake-shaped compass underneath him with numbers ranging from 1 to 12. This technique allows Akaza to sense a person's "Fighting Spirit (闘気 Tōki?)", a person's will to fight, which he uses to achieve numerous effects while in combat. Firstly, he is able to determine the strength of anyone at a glance, such as when he discerned that Kyojuro was a Hashira just by looking at him. Secondly, Akaza is able to detect the presence of his opponents in his immediate surroundings (even in his blind spots) and can use this to predict where and how his opponents will strike him. This technique also allows Akaza to tell where his target's weaknesses are located and instinctively aim for them. Furthermore, the precision of Akaza's attacks are greatly enhanced. Another trait of his Compass Needle allows him to reactively adapt to his opponent's attacks, learning to anticipate their techniques and attack forms and even strike back with equal accuracy over time. Additionally, the stronger a person's Fighting Spirit, the stronger the response of his Compass Needle.   Air Type (空式 Kūshiki?): Akaza punches the empty air in front him while creating a shockwave that flies towards his target and hits them from afar. These airborne shockwaves can be created multiple times in quick succession and can be unleashed in the sky or on the ground.   Disorder (乱式 Ranshiki?): Punching rapidly at the target, Akaza creates a barrage of large shockwaves, destroying anything in front of him. This attack was capable of matching Kyojuro's Flame Tiger technique.   Annihilation Type (滅式 Messhiki?): One of Akaza's most powerful techniques. Akaza crouches with both his arms at the side of his body poised to strike. He then lunges forward, creating two powerful circular shockwaves from the palm of his hands which he uses to strike his target with tremendous force. This technique was strong enough to rival through Kyojuro's most powerful attack, Rengoku.   Leg Type: Crown Splitter (脚式 冠先割 Kyakushiki: Kamuro Saki Wari?): A reverse, rising axe kick that produces a shockwave once it connects with the target.   Leg Type: Explosive Flurry (脚式 流閃群光 Kyakushiki: Ryūsengunkō?): A flashing flurry of powerful straight kicks so fast that they create afterimages, with each kick producing powerful shockwaves. This technique was powerful enough to launch Giyu an extremely far distance.   Leg Type: Flying Planet Thousand Wheels (脚式 飛遊星仟輪 Kyakushiki: Hyūsei Senrin?): A kick that utilizes a flowing motion which strikes Akaza's target from below and launches them upward.   Eight-Layered Demon Core (鬼芯八重芯 Kishinya Eshin?): Akaza unleashes eight powerful punches, each strike creating large and strong shockwaves in a similar fashion to his Disorder technique.   Crushing Type: Ten Thousand Leaves Flashing Willow (砕式 萬葉閃柳 Saishiki: Manyōsen Yanagi?): A powerful downward punch that delivers a large shockwave into the ground which expands outward.   Final Form: Blue Silver Chaotic Afterglow (終式 青銀乱残光 Shūshiki: Aogin Ranzankō?): Akaza's ultimate technique. Akaza unleashes an omni-directional barrage of countless thin and sharp shockwaves that deliver a hundred blows to his target coming from everywhere almost at the same time. This attack was so powerful that it could negate Giyu's Dead Calm technique, a move known for its immense defensive capabilities.   Fire Immunity: Like all Demons, Akaza possesses a natural immunity to standard flames.   Fangs: Akaza has a mouth full of razor-sharp fangs.   Transformation: Akaza can transform himself into his demon form and back to human form.

Quotes & Catchphrases
"Are the poor not even allowed to live? Father... To Hell with this world! To Hell with every last one of them! Why do these rotten people get to live but my father had to die? He wasn't a bother. What did he have to apologize for? My father didn't do anything wrong! I could take the punishment. They could whip me savagely or break all my bones... but I could take it for even a hundred years for my father's sake![...] My father was rapidly losing weight. His ribs were beginning to show through his back. I wanted to feed him something more nutritious. I was sure I could heal him. Why did he hang himself? I would have been happy to die instead, if it were for my father's sake. For my father!!"   "I will cure you for sure. Help you. Protect. My life was worthless, filled with nothing but empty promises."   "I'm home, father. I'm back. Master. Koyuki. I'm home."
