Yu's father (ユウの父, Yū no chichi)
The unnamed father of Yu, he was given the unofficial name 'Jun' in the English Master Edition of the manga.
Along with his wife, he took his sick son, Yu, to the Village of Miracles to be treated by the healer, Toki. However, unbeknownst to him, Toki had been replaced by the mad imposter Amiba.
After "Toki" appeared to heal his son, Jun was forced to become a 'test dummy' in return and was about to have his respiratory muscles sealed until Kenshiro arrived in the nick of time.
When Kenshiro revealed that "Toki" had in fact euthanized Yu, Jun attacked his son's murderer with a knife, but Amiba struck his Gekishinko vital point which rapidly increased his heart rate until his veins burst.

TV series

In the TV series, Yu is saved by Kenshiro before Amiba can euthanize him. Jun still tries to kill Amiba and suffers the same fate as in the manga.
