Characters 

Yoshimori Sumimura (墨村良守, Sumimura Yoshimori)

• Voiced by: Hiroyuki Yoshino

The main character. Yoshimori is a 14-year old middle school boy who is the 22nd kekkaishi of the Sumimura family. In the series, Yoshimori is potrayed to be a lazy, stubborn headstrong creature who strives his best to protect his friends and his family. The younger Yoshimori was different from the current Yoshimori, in the fact that he likes to cry a lot more and who heavily dislikes executing his duties as a Kekkaishi. The situation that had brought about the change in Yoshimori was when Tokine was injured by an ayakashi which he could have dispatched, but did not do so due to his kindness, allowing the ayakashi to become more powerful and escape his barrier. Tokine had moved to protect him, destroying the creature but getting mauled in progress. After the incident, Yoshimori has changed drastically his attitude towards being a Kekkaishi.

As a Kekkaishi, Yoshimori cannot be matched by his counterpart; Tokine in terms of power and speed, but his weaknesses lies in his lack of accuracy and tendency to tumble into a situation without thinking about it beforehand. During the series, observations had been made by Sumimura Shigemori and Sumimura Masamori that Yoshimori has an enormous wellspring of latent abilities in his kekkais. It has also been noted that Yoshimori is able to activate "zekkai" without any particular training beforehand. However, his zekkai could only be powered to its full potential in moments when his emotions overflow their boundaries. Only two occasions had been shown with him using his fully powered zekkai in the current running of the series - once while fighting against Kaguro, and the other while saving his brother Masamori from getting hit by a fatal attack.

 

Madarao (斑尾, Madarao)

• Voiced by: Takeharu Onishi

The white demon dog that had stayed with the Sumimura family, passed down to them by the founder Hazama Tokimori. Madarao detects ayakashi with his amazing sense of smell, and which apparently, as he had bragged in the series that was far better than Hakubi’s. However, he often bemoans the fact that his sense of smell was of no use to Yoshimori, for no matter how fast he finds the ayakashis, Yoshimori could never dispatch them fast enough. He is about 500 years old. Madarao was previously known by the name of Ginro (銀露, Ginro^?) and was at one time friends with Kouya. He currently wears a collar that seals away his true demon form. When unsealed, Madarao is a competent poison user and avid illusionist. Madarao seems to have an unrequited crush on Hazama Tokimori; apparently, the reason he had followed him was because he fell in love with him on first sight. All through the years Madarao had refused to acknowledge anybody as his real master other than Hazama Tokimori, however, after the battle with Kouya, Madarao seems to have considered Yoshimori his master.

 

Tokine Yukimura (雪村時音, Yukimura Tokine)

• Voiced by: Rie Saitou

Yoshimori's friend. Tokine is 16 and she is the 22nd Kekkaishi of the Yukimura family. She has a scar on her right hand, which was the consequence of protecting Yoshimori in their childhood. She has great accuracy and precision, but her kekkai are very weak and can only be maintained for short periods of time; lacking the 'brute' power of Yoshimori's kekkai. She has been shown to be able to use her kekkai as spears, 'piercing' an enemy. She has also an affection towards Yoshimori shown by her protecting him various times when he was younger. She also likes to tease him and isn't aware of his feelings for her, although throughout the series she shows signs of interest towards Yoshimori. Tokine is clearly impressed by the power and potential Yoshimori has, but is constantly frustrated by his poor control and lazy attitude. In the series, it is stated that whilst she is the weakest Kekkaishi, she is also the most ruthless.

 

Hakubi (白尾, Hakubi)

• Voiced by: Masanori Ishii

The Yukimura family's demon dog; he detects demons with his sense of smell. He is about 400 years old. He does not like men and is constantly insulting Yoshimori. Hakubi also enjoys teasing Madarao about having to serve a master (Yoshimori) with such pathetic skills. He constantly flirts with Tokine and likes to call her 'honey'.

 

Gen Shishio (志々尾限 , Shishio Gen)

• Voiced by: Eiji Miyashita

First appears in volume 6 of the manga. Shishio aids Tokine and Yoshimori in hunting ayakashi and protecting Karasumori. He is considered an "integrated half ayakashi", meaning he can transform part or all of his body into that of an Ayakashi. When his power first fully awakened when he was ten, he almost killed his older sister. Afterwards he was taken in by Masamori and the Yagyou, where he was taught by Atora.
