: Juza was [[Yuria|Yuria's]] childhood sweetheart and wished to marry her, but his dreams were shattered when he discovered she was his half-sister from the same father. As a result, Juza descended into a hedonistic and promiscuous lifestyle to bury the pain. The Goshasei believed Juza was the only one capable of stopping [[Raoh]], but Juza, being a free-spirited man, did not wish to fight for the sake of the [[Last Nanto General]]. When he discovered it was none other than his beloved Yuria, Juza swore his life to her and rode into battle against Raoh. Juza had known Raoh since childhood and was the perfect foil to Raoh's serious nature. [[Ryuken]] once remarked that the two of them were equals. | : Juza was [[Yuria|Yuria's]] childhood sweetheart and wished to marry her, but his dreams were shattered when he discovered she was his half-sister from the same father.

: Juza was famously the first and only man to steal [[Kokuoh]] from Raoh. For this humiliation, Raoh refused to move until his mighty steed returned to him. When Juza returned for a rematch, he suffered the true extent of Raoh's strength and was defeated. However, he endured Raoh's torture to the bitter end and refused to identify the Last Nanto General. Raoh described Juza's death as 'terrifying' and ordered his men to prepare an honorable burial for his fallen rival. However, it was this same tenacity that revealed the Last Nanto General's identity to Raoh, as he knew that Juza would only sacrifice his life for Yuria. | : Juza was famously the first and only man to steal [[Kokuoh]] from Raoh.

:: In the television series, Juza has his own gang of punks, who effectively replace [[Fudou|Fudou's]] army in the manga. Juza is captured by the Goshasei when [[Rihaku|Rihaku's]] daughter, [[Tou]], infiltrates his hideout and spikes his drink before they take him to meet the Last Nanto General. | |||
:: Juza's fight with Raoh is extended in this version. After surviving Raoh's interrogation, Juza evades the blow that killed him in the manga and continues fighting, despite his grievous wounds (he lampshades this turn of events by declaring "''I'm of the clouds. I move and do as I please. We're doing this my way.''"). Eventually, he succumbs to one of Raoh's secret techniques and dies, only to rise up and continue battling Raoh for a few more moments. He manages to wound Raoh with a flying punch before finally exsanguinating from Raoh's previous attack. Raoh remarks that Juza's body had continued fighting even in death, and orders that his army give the fallen warrior a respectful burial. | |||

: Juza's side story details his life prior to his appearance in Hokuto no Ken. Juza is introduced as the trump card of an opposition army fighting against Raoh, and expresses a stronger playboy attitude than was shown in his appearances in ''Hokuto no Ken''. Central to the plot is his search for [[Kenshiro]], who Juza holds a grudge against for being unable to protect Yuria. | : Juza's side story details his life prior to his appearance in Hokuto no Ken.

: Eventually, he stumbles across [[Mamiya's Village]], and is surprised and subdued by [[Mamiya]]. [[Airi]] appears, and Juza realizes that [[Rei]] had died and recalls his tie with the [[Nanto Suichō Ken|Suichoken ]] practitioner. When he brings up Kenshiro's inability to protect Yuria, he is slapped by Mamiya, who, Airi explains, was grieved by Rei's death and associated it with his inability to protect her. This causes Juza to let go of his grudge against Kenshiro and the events of Juza's appearance in ''Hokuto no Ken'' follow. | : Eventually, he stumbles across [[Mamiya's Village]], and is surprised and subdued by [[Mamiya]].
