Yajirou Kojima

bring about world unity. He is called the Tiger by Templar because the more cornered Yajirou becomes, the greater his abilities become. A former rebel, he was working as a mercenary until he met Rushuna. Although Yajirou disdains the use of firearms, he is very skilled and can dodge bullets and parry them with his sword. He is also shown to be physically very strong by tossing and crushing bolders with his bare hands. He can also slice massive cannon shells in half. Yajirou hates guns because he believes that gunners do not see the weight of a person's life when they pull the trigger. However he later states that he does not see Rushuna in the same light as he does other gunners. The route that he, Rushuna, and Mikan take towards Tento's capital by crossing Mt. Charanbo and then White Wizard Lake retraces the same route that he followed when he was with the rebel army that attempted to invade the capital a year and a half ago and is thus memory-laden for him. Rushuna calls him "Ya-chan" , an informal name he is initially irritated with, but grows to accept. Not too far into the anime, Yajirou seems to hint having some feelings towards Rushuna, evident on numerous occasions where he either gets embarrassed by her words, protects her without saying why, or shows jealousy towards her almost sisterly relationship with Mikan.
