Jihan Kanda

"As men, even if we know the path we walk down will be full of pain and sorrow, we still choose to go on it. Just as they are depicted in movies and manga, they're neither easy nor quick, and they can break a man's heart. The life one chooses can torment them. The path one chooses can make you regret ever attempting to go down them. But still, it's the true meaning of walking down one's own path. If that's so, then why do we, as men, still choose to go down them? Why is that? Because we want to be real men! Real men don't give up, even in the face of pain, sorrow, and regret. Rather, they want to live a full life! That's what real men are."

- Jihan speaking to Minato Kuramoto.

Jihan Kanda (吉安神田, Kanda Jiān) is a former member of the Hakkō Ichiu, feared throughout the spiritual world as the "Demon God Fist" (魔天主拳, Kenmashajin), due to both his monstrous strength as well as his tendency to fight while wearing his demonic-looking mask. After meeting Seireitou Kawahiru during the latter's travels with his partner and student, he becomes one of the five masters of Kawahiru Dojang.
