His traits are nothing like his companions - he is a very nice and rather friendly young man with a nice smile. He is usually the one who talks to strangers in their journey, being the only one with the sufficient politeness to do so, and as such he does most of the talking towards innkeepers and shopkeepers. Whenever someone needs to talk to them for some reason, such as requiring the help of the great Sanzo-ikkou, it is he and not the leader of the party who responds. Hakkai’s not all smiles and sparkles though – in fact, he can be pretty mean to his friends. He is someone who has a pretty sharp tongue, and he’s not afraid to use it against anyone, especially when his companions are making too much of a ruckus. When times come that even the mild-manned Hakkai couldn’t take their noise any longer, he would often insult and threaten them in his own passive-aggressive way – all with his trademark little smile. He is also one of the very few people who can trash-talk Sanzo and live to tell the tale, and that thought alone scares their other companions. There are times, however, when his smile drops and gives way into a frown – and it’s a scary sight, because Hakkai only gets angry when he’s really angry, and he’s not one to give mercy that easily. Beyond all his mannerisms is a darker and far more menacing side to Hakkai. He is usually unforgiving, and very cruel, especially those who would harm his closest friends. He wouldn’t hesitate to end any of their lives – or even do something far worse. Nowadays he tends to keep his temper and control in check, but it doesn’t mean he would be gentle with anyone who pushes his buttons. He’s not all innately bad, though. Towards the better side of the population Hakkai really is kind and good. His actions of charity are sincere, and he would not dare ignore anyone he sees that requires help. A long time ago Hakkai had a masochistic streak, getting himself in danger to atone for all his past sins, and somehow help everyone around him, but he knows better now. He will not stop with his heroic acts, but he won’t just throw his life away, because he knows how much the others still need him. He can’t change anything once he’s dead. And besides, no one else on their team could clean and cook, and that alone halts any of his suicidal tendencies. He’s quite aware of his grim past, and while he prefers not to talk about it, Hakkai has accepted of what he became – a sinner, drunk in his own pride, massacred multitudes of people for the sake of revenge. As punishment, he was now given the form of the monsters who took away his lover: the form he hated the most. He regrets nothing of his past actions, but he is willing to take responsibility, and it is because of this that he has been given a second chance, under a different name. He’s willing to pull a stunt like that again, if not for two reasons – one, because repeating his past actions would betray the very trust that was given to him, and two, because he knows that his friends wouldn’t want him to do it, even if it’s for their own sakes. He knew he can’t go back to a perfectly normal life again, but he knew he could change things for the better – starting by forgiving himself from being unable to save Kannan, and by extension, the youkai race. After all, not all of them are the same, just like humans themselves. During their journeys, he has learned the importance of pride and freedom: if there is something he needs to do, it would be for his own will and desire – embrace nothing, a worldly priest once said to him, and Hakkai knew that is sound advice. Sure, they are saving the world, but they’re also doing this because they want to. It is with this confidence that Hakkai finally knows to raise his head up again, and to be proud that he is among the living.

His weapons are simply his fists - Hakkai is well-trained at martial arts, making him capable of fighting even without his special abilities. [STYLE=background-color: #48176e; font-family: arial narrow; font-size: 11px; color: f1f1f1; letter-spacing: 2px; text-align: center; width: 100px;] SPECIAL ABILITY:[/style] Hakkai’s special ability is his own chi, his energy. With enough concentration it is possible for it to be manipulated both offensively and defensively. Hakkai has three favoured moves with chi – the first is to simply throw a chi blast against opponents, causing enough damage to severely wound them. It’s quite similar to that famous move in Street Fighter. Secondly, he is capable of forming a chi barrier large enough to cover a small group of people. Attacks can’t pass through it, but stronger attacks require more chi to block them. Finally, he may use chi to heal wounds and other kinds of physical injuries, although it proves useless against poisonous substances and the like.
