: Jagi has a more extended appearance in the 1986 movie. He and Raoh witness Kenshiro's defeat and torture at the hands of Shin, who kidnaps Yuria. Raoh orders Jagi to dispose Kenshiro's unconscious body by throwing him off the cliff so he can die in the depths of darkness, and allows Jagi to become Hokuto Shinken successor in Kenshiro's place. A year later, Jagi keeps Rei's sister, Airi, as his slave but soon realizes Kenshiro is still alive. When Kenshiro and Rei arrive at his fortress, he tries to trick Rei into attacking Kenshiro but Kenshiro immediately stops the fight and provokes Jagi into battle. The two Hokuto brothers fight upon the roof and during the fight Jagi reveals it was him who goaded Shin into taking Yuria. Enraged by this, Kenshiro unleashes his fury upon Jagi and his punch destroys the device supporting his disfigured head. He tells Kenshiro of Yuria and Shin's whereabouts before his entire body explodes. | : Jagi has a more extended appearance in the 1986 movie.
