    Kaijin (怪人, Lit. Strange Person)
    A creature whose design is based on Sloth from The Goonies. Kaijin is a super strong but child like behemoth. He appears briefly in a flashback, petting a black leopard after mistaking it for a kitten. After he accidentally kills it by petting it too hard with his monstrous strength (reminiscent of Of Mice and Men), he tries to make a man his new pet. Shachi confronts him before he can claim his next victim and uses him to perfect his newly learned Hokuto Ryuken. Leia then watches in horror as Shachi laughs maniacally over the creature's dismembered body.

    TV Series[edit | edit source]

    In the anime he is depicted as a pirate hiding out in a cave full of stolen treasure, and tries to murder a man who comes into his cave rather then take him as a pet. His resemblance to Sloth is also downplayed.
