Kogure is a villain from the Hokuto no Ken TV series. He was the leader of a bandit gang who robbed and killed a chicken farmer who had befriended Kenshirō. When Kenshiro pursued them for revenge, Kogure sought the opportunity to defeat him and be recruited into Ken-Oh's army. Kogure and his three partners (Guzuri, Jira and Naburi) surprised Kenshiro with their Taizan-ryū Shisoku Ken style, until he saw through their technique and destroyed them one by one.

Trivia

  • Kogure's name and appearance seems to be based on Japanese heavy metal musician Demon Kogure, the frontman of the band Seikima-II.
