Origin

In the 1970's, Kenshirō was born in Taiseiden, Land of Asura to the Hokuto Sōke family. Ryūken named Kenshirō after his older brother, Kenshirō Kasumi, because both had a Big Dipper-shaped birthmark on their heads. The identity of his parents has never been made clear, but he has an older brother named Hyō. Hyō and Kenshirō were caught in a fire and were rescued by Kaiō's Mother, at the cost of her life.
With the Land of Asura in political turmoil, Jūkei send the baby Kenshirō away to Japan with Raoh and Toki to be raised by Ryūken.
