Ichirō Kazato is one of the seven members of Ryuusei Tenkosei's team and is also his student in the art of the shinigami as he refers to him as Ryuu-sensei or Tenkosei-san. He is also a member of the Kazato family a world renowned mercenary/assasin organization that uses kido and special weapons.

He usually wears a purple lined, hooded black robe with a purple oobi sash, white socks without tabi, and black hakama pants. His robe seems to have a near infinite amount of inside pockets and is shown to act as armor on numerous occasions, it also changes with the season for example in the winter he has white fleece jutting out of his neck area and wrist while in the summer it is almost jacket like and has fishnets covering his torso all the time.

Personality
Outwardly Ichirō is seen as antagonistic, calm and somewhat cartoonish individual that acts indifferent to others which is quite the opposite of his true personality that is still rather cartoonish but is kind prone to smiling, is very protective and is very friendly. Due to his training he must learn to reign in his emotions as to let his instincts guide his decision in combat. Because of his families notable act as a mercenary/assasin for hire organization who will do anything for whoever offers the highest bid he will constantly do good deeds to separate himself from them an prove that they are not all the same. He has a brotherly relationship with Azure Vegas as well and shows to care a great deal about him even when he is being serious. He is also a womanizer to a certain degree something he adopted from being around Ryuumon Ryuusei's grandfather who is a lecherous monk at heart.

History
Ichirō is the son of the head member of the Kazato family and is an "Assasin Prince" in his own right but because of his elder sister Haruka constantly showed more promise and garnered most of the attention of their father he had to fine a confidant in his mother who believed that he would be greater than Haruka and his father one day. This day eventually came when he was introduced to his future mentor Ryuusei by his mother who thought that he would learn to be a better person and fighter just from being around him this theory was proven correct and now he travels with Ryuusei to both learn his style and to assist him in his mission as a freelance shinigami.

Equipment
Ichirō has a collection of Kazato family heirlooms that he uses in combat:

Special Wire: These wires are infinite in length and quantity as long as they have the most miniscule amount of spiritual energy, they can channel spiritual pressure to manipulate the gravity around an object, and can be used to slice through objects as well and control things like puppets. These wire are cannot be seen by the naked eye and only the advanced sight of the Kazato can effectively see and use it.

Ancient Kazato Ninja Tools: These are a wide variety of ninja tools forged by the ancestors by the Kazato family the set includes an endless amounts and variety of decorative shurikens and kunai of all shapes and sizes, ninja scrolls, a shroud that is used to cloak oneself, a pair of tonfa, a kusari-gama, and a variety of other tools that he has at his disposal.

Hanabi Bakudan (Lit. Firework bomb): A special canon that is hidden within the armor on Ichirō's arm. It takes the form of a pheonix. This cannon works similar to a kido cannon and is specifically keyed to his exact spiritual signature. the name of the weapon refers to the amunition that is uses and how it resembles fireworks when it is fired.

Powers & Abilities
Massive Spiritual Powers: Ichirō has large resevoirs of spiritual power that takes the form of a magneta purple aura. He can mask his powers unlike anyone else and can transform his energy into strength or speed or even defense something that is said to be a rather rare ability. He can't however hide his spiritual powers from his sister or mother and Ryuusei but everyone else seems to be the exception. He is also an expert at Kido that takes exceptionally large amounts of spiritual power to perform and can make an infinite amount of the special wire his family use.

Expert Swordsmanship: Due to his teachings by Ryuusei Ichirō is a very powerful swordsman as he can openly spar with Ryuusei to a point but he still has a long way to go in terms of skill. He is also a master of his families secret assasination sword style that has many fatal blows that can be performed in quick succession but does not use it because of association with being bad.

Invisibility: At his discretion he can turn invisible for an unknown amount of time and can turn other objects invisible such as his sword when attacking making people think that he has telekinesis and can cause people harm just by gesturing it. He also uses these ability to spy on naked women in hot tubs out of "Curiosity" it is possible that Ryuumon taught this technique to Ryuusei who taught it to Ichirō as it would seem like a technique the lecherous monk is known for.

Flash step Expert: His flash step is on level with Azure's sonido and can even take out opponents with blinding speed. He can increase his speed by fueling his muscles with spiritual power this causes a very large booste of speed that can be seen as teleportation to some who can't keep up with him.

Master Kido Specialist: His family is full of Kido Corp. members that are high in rank and can use Kido that are just as strong as kido that have used the full incantation and even stronger than with an incantation. He also has kido knowledge beyond his years as he can seemingly create a special brand of kido that resembles the Vizard Hachi. His expertise lie in creating barriers and negation rather than offense while his sister is vice-cersa.

Hand-to-hand combat practicioner: Even though he is Ryuusei's student he is not exceptionally good at hand-to-hand combat and does not use it often to his teachers chagrin.

Enhanced strength: His strength far surpasses those of his size as he is seen being able to uproot trees and break through walls.

Enhanced Senses: As he was taught to be an assasin he has senses that surpass regular people particularly his eyesight and hearing.

Tolerance to Pain: His father constantly tortured him as part of his training to the point he has a near incalcuable level of tolerance to pain, drugs and alcohol and can detect poison in his system and use his blood to create an antidote.
