Kai Szasazu

Kai Szasazu is the arch-rival of Ginta Hanabishi and the tritagonist of the manga/anime series, Demon's Quest. Kai is the next heir to the throne of the Dragon Riders group, and the anti-hero of the series. Kai, along with his sister, Dew Szasazu, has been raised by his grandfather, Yasha Szasazu, since the age of six, after he witnessed his grandfather murder his parents. From that point onward, Kai has been scarred for life, transforming into an introverted, cold-hearted assassin. He is Yasha's ultimate weapon to making Project: Demolition come to fruition, as well as being the next sacrifice to grant Yasha the eternal Dragon powers that he had been craving. Realizing this, Kai wanted to break free from his grandfather's control. After his first confrontation with Ginta, Kai has since reluctantly joined the Spirit Warriors as the team leader, in order to get another shot at Ginta. Kai has sworn his life on killing Ginta to restore his wounded pride, and officially overcome the inner turmoil of his past that has been haunting him and eating away at him for years. Kai's struggle is revealed to be what in life does he truly desire, a puzzle that still confuses him due to his desire to bury his past for good. Through his fights with Ginta, and his training under Kisara, Kai eventually manages to obtain the freedom.
