-: ''Voiced by'': [[Masaharu Satō]]
+{{nihongo|'''Taiga'''|タイガ||also spelled '''Tiger'''}} is a villain who appears exclusively in the ''Hokuto no Ken'' TV series voiced by [[Masaharu Satō]]. Along with [[Boltz]], Taiga is a renegade [[Gento Kō Ken]] master who serves the Viceroy [[Jakō]]. He substitutes [[Jask]], Jakō's elder son, in the anime version of the story. Taiga holds the title of General of Green Light at the Imperial Capital due to the color of fighting aura.
-: The General of the Green Light. Another renegade Gento warrior who is also under [[Jakō]]'s service. After Jakoh's defeat, Taiga kidnaps Lin and takes her to the Land of Asura with the intent of selling her off, only to be butchered by the warriors in Asura. Like [[Boltz]], Taiga only appears in the TV series, replacing the character [[Jask]] (Jakoh's elder son) in the original manga. Taiga (before dying) tells Falco if he go after Lynn, he will die.
+Taiga fought [[Bat]] and [[Ein]] when they infiltrated the Imperial Capital to hunt down Jakō, knocking both out with a single use of his technique. After Bat and co. fell into Jakō's pitfall trap, Taiga remains by Jakō's side. However, Jakō's plot to pit [[Kenshirō]] and [[Falco]] against each other failed, Taiga decided to abandon Jakō and fled.
+After Jakō's death, Taiga kidnapped [[Lin]] and activated the self-destruct mechanism that was installed into the Imperial Capital, resulting in the capital's destruction. Taiga fled overseas to the Kingdom of Shura with Lin in order to lure Ken and Falco. However, Taiga's entire unit was annihilated upon their arrival to Shura and Taiga himself was mortally wounded. Before dying, Taiga encountered Falco and warned him that hell itself was awaiting on the island.
+Taiga's only appearance outside of the ''Hokuto no Ken'' anime was in the Family Computer video game version of ''[[Hokuto no Ken 2 (Famicom)|Hokuto no Ken 2]]''. Taiga appears in the game as the boss of Stage 3, serving as the warden of the Empire's Concentration Camp for Traitors. His counterpart from the manga, Jask, also appears in the game at a later stage.
