Kobito (コビト)^[1], better known as the Giant Hag (でかいババア, Dekai Babā)

A giant underling of Ken-Oh who cross-dressed as a seemingly innocent old lady. He lured Kenshiro, Toki and Mamiya into his cabin, attempting to trick the trio into drinking poisoned water. However, Kenshiro easily saw through the "old lady's" ruse, claiming that he'd never seen an old woman as big as him. The Hag tried to attack Kenshiro with a pair of swords, but he easily thwarted him with a high kick, killing him in the process.

TV Series[edit | edit source]

In the anime, the Hag is not as imposing compared to his manga counterpart, although in this version his facial hair gives him away instead. The Hag in the anime was a member of Ken-Oh's Special Transformation Unit, which consisted of himself and a group of thugs dressed like old men.

Video Games[edit | edit source]

Hokuto No Ken Seikimatsu Kyūseishu Densetsu: The Giant hag appears as a sub boss, fulfilling the same role as in the manga.

Hokuto Ga Gotoku/Lost Paradise: The Hag appears as a villager in Eden, appearing primarily as a customer in the bar. She often complains about hitting her head against the door.

Hokuto Musou[edit | edit source]

In Hokuto Musou/Ken's Rage, a bunch of them appear in Jagi's Dream Mode, who are actually female and they fall in love with him. One of the extra challenges pays lip service to the original, however, by having a Giant Hag who is clearly a man in disguise (including the voice), who ambushes the player.

Notes[edit | edit source]

Whilst the original manga all but stated that Dekai Babaa was actually a young man in disguise, many other supplementary media depict Dekai Babaa as an actual giant old woman.
