Even though he lost a lot of blood and could barely stand, Shion stood his ground and forced himself through Mu Dan's vines in order to kill him once and for all. This action filled him with regret and caused him to push himself to the extremes in order to not have history repeat itself. Because he was forced to flee and leave Tenza to fight Zhu Jin, Shion felt responsible for his death. He showed no fear or hesitation in facing against Mu Dan in his Kishikai form and stated that he gladly accepted death if it meant that he could take him down. Shion is able to take initiative by having his allies focus on the task at hand and come up with clever strategies, as well as take into account of their opinions on whether they are willing to follow his plan or not. After settling in one of the buildings in Hōrai, Shion clapped his hands to get everyone's attention and review what they know about Tao. Even though he refused to become her teacher, Shion was unaware that he was teaching her the proper way of using a sword while fighting the Sōshin. After escaping Zhu Jin, Shion hit Tenza with the hilt of his sword for his sloppy swordsmanship and quickly corrected him. Since he is a teacher, Shion would sometimes act as such during certain matters. Shion also has a witty sense of humor, often making puns and jokes regarding his eyesight, which has become a major part of his character to the people around him. Like the other Asaemon, he possesses a strong loyalty to the Yamada clan. He is well aware of the brutal nature of his work as an executioner, opting to spend the rest of his time helping others, such as when he saved Tenza from a life of crime by taking him in and training him in the way of the sword. He then switches to wearing a black Iwa shinobi robe, along with matches pants, gaiters, gauntlets, sandals, and wears white tasuki to hold his sleeves.Ī year later, Shion removes the bandages around his neck and allows the throat scar he received from Zhu Jin to be visible. After his confrontation with Zhu Jin, Shion wears a bandage around his neck to keep the wound he received from opening.Īfter briefly settling in Hōrai, Shion changed from his Asaemon attire to a light blue robe with a pattern running down the collar and cuffs and wears matching pants. He wears the standard attire of the Asaemon, however, he does not carry the bell around his collar. He has three long, distinctive scars crossing his face two vertical running from forehead to cheek crossing the center of each eye, and one horizontal across the top of his nose through each eye. Shion is a blind man with short, spiky silver hair in a faux hawk cut. The pair would eventually become known as the "Blind Wolf and Cub" as they would often help right the wrongs within each town they happened to come by. Shortly after, Shion became a part of a united front formed from the remaining surviving criminals and executioners to defeat Lord Tensen, work together in capturing the elixir, and have everyone escape the island.Ī year later after escaping the island, Shion went by the name Kuon ( 久 ( く ) 遠 ( おん ) ) in order to hide himself from the law, abandons his role as both a samurai and an executioner of the Yamada clan, and upholds the promise he made to Nurugai that he would take care of her until she had returned back to her people. Shion (士遠), formerly known as Yamada Asaemon Shion (山田浅ェ門 士遠), was the former 4th rank Asaemon of the Yamada clan.Īfter the shogun called for criminals to acquire the Elixir of Life from the dangerous island known as Kotaku, in exchange for a pardon for their past crimes, Shion joined in the expedition team as one of the Yamada Asaemon monitors and was assigned to keep watch over the criminal, Akaginu.
