Character: Aizawa Kouichi
Series:
Nabari no OuCharacter Age: 14
Canon: In our modern time, one would think ninjas to be extinct. Who would ever think that there's a hidden world populated entirely by them? Co-existing with the Normal World, Nabari, as it's called, has a number of ninja villages with one goal: to possess the Shinrabanshou, a type of hijutsu, [hidden jutsu or secret techinque] with god-like powers containing all the knowledge known to exist in this world. This manga is about Miharu who is the one currently holding the Shinrabanshou and does not want to have anything to do with ninjas or their world. Nabari's inhabitants, however, do not see that as a valid reason for not involving him and trying to get a hold of at least a piece of the power Miharu possesses.
One of these ninjas is Kouichi Aizawa, a member of Banten, the smallest of the so called 'villages' and also the village first to come in contact with Miharu. Kouichi is your everyday, polite 14 year old school kid, in the same class as Miharu, a slight klutz, very interested in ninja arts and leader of the school ninja club. When talking to Kouichi, you'll be faced with his energetic attitude and slightly loose opinion about everything. However, with his duties as a ninja he's serious, relentless and cold blooded to a degree which is very unusual for such a young person. He seems a bit too fascinated by death and doesn't seem afraid of fights or the fact that he might die while in battle. He's light hearted towards any challenge he puts in front of him, but when encountering complications a bit greater than anticipated, his desperation and conviction for his own beliefs shines through. That shows some proof that he's attached to the people he knows.
Sample Post:
Eh. Excuse me, I know some languages, but I'm afraid I can't understand you. This is your cave? I'm terribly sorry to have imposed on your stay, but really, I'm not so sure how I ended up here in the first place. No, grunting won't help you, really, and please stop drooling on my shirt. ...I don't really think you should follow me around either. This is a big cave, right? There's plenty of space around for-- that's my weapon! Give it back, if you please. I actually need it, considering what creatures I've already seen around... "Brains"? That really isn't very eloquent. I truly hope you're not trying to tell me you want to--
…
"Eat brains". Really now. I was hoping you wouldn't say that. It isn't any sort of reassuring message, believe me. Now, would you please return my kunai without, mind you, so much of that gooey slime sticking to your person? Though perhaps kindness isn't really something to expect from someth-- someone at this level of decay. Do you even understand me? Ahaha… I guess not. "Grurhg"? Was that a question? Oh, my weapon. I'd still like that back, you know. I use it frequently and I can't really have you wander off with it. Ah, please don't pull, and don't nibble on my leg. You might be undead, but that doesn't mean I can't dispose of you when I want to. Hm. I do wonder how you died… even though I know zombies to be regarded as "living dead". That is an interesting theory, but I could have lived without the rotting thing going on. No, you don't have to demonstrate that. Not rea-- how do you walk with only half a leg? How peculiar. Is this goodbye the-- oh my.
Why so many all of a sudden? I didn't know you had friends living here as well. You seem awfully similar and that makes me wonder if you're perhaps related? No no, don't give me that look. Yes I’m sure you have your mother's eye…s. No, I don't want to hold it. Your mother probably needs it more than I do, and you all lack parts, oh dear. Too many parts, even. But you're not alive, so you don't care, do you? How you manage to move without any sort of working neural system is beyond me, but I guess this place holds a lot of surprises. Maybe it's some sort of puppet jutsu…? Actually, I have no time for this. I'm afraid I have to leave. You can have your eye back, miss-- mister… well. I'm sure you'll work that little problem out.
