- Diamond (ダイヤ Daiya)
- A Kingsman who specializes in bōjutsu and wears clown-like makeup. Kenshiro confronts him while he's trying to execute a villager for fun. Kenshiro kills him with the Koushu Hagan Ken (Face Breaking Fist).
TV Series
- In the anime series, he is the Jack of Diamond. Also different in the anime series, he and his men are forcing a man to aim a bow and arrow at his own son. Kenshiro saves the boy by using Nishi Shinku Ha to catch the arrow before it can hit him.
Manga
- In the manga, he and his men are killing villagers in order to draw out Kenshiro so they can kill him. He forces a girl to hold up her father who has a noose around his neck to keep him from being hanged, a shout-out to villain Frank's most sadistic act from the old western Once Upon a Time in the West.
