- Seeker (シーカー Shiikā)
- A reconnaissance agent of Ken-Oh who attacks Mamiya while on her way to her village from Cassandra. His most notable characteristics includes his goggles and long tongue, which is notable when he laughs. Kenshiro saves Mamiya and kills him with his own metal rods.
Appearance[edit | edit source]
- He is a large heavily armored man who wears a horned helmet with a pair of goggles with long lenses, as well as a tunic with shoulderpads, horned vambraces, trousers, boots, and a bizarre, loincloth like armor around his waist that resembles a tail.
- In the anime, his goggles are portrayed as being able to move independently from one another like the eyes of a chameleon.
Personality[edit | edit source]
- He's a typical member of Raoh's army; a sadistic bully who enjoys picking on the weak, and also has some lecherous tendencies, plotting to kill Mamiya slowly out of his sadism.
- In the anime, he is given a lighter personality, as his reason for attacking Mamiya is because of her killing his men, who he views as precious, and also has more comedic traits, as he speaks in an overly dramatic inflection and regularly makes bizarre noises, such as a constant "Mimimimi" noise, letting out a bizarre gasp when Ken hits him with his own steel rods, and speaking in a strange sing-song voice about how he's over once Ken finishes him off.
Abilities[edit | edit source]
- His most distinctive ability is to crawl on walls like a chameleon, as well as being good at stealth, as he snook up on Mamiya despite being much larger than she is. He also has a high pain tolerance threshold, as he was able to shrug off accidentally biting off his own tongue when Kenshiro attacked him to save Mamiya.
TV Series[edit | edit source]
- In the TV series, he is the Captain of Ken-oh's Recon Patrol (拳王偵察隊 Ken'ō Teisatsutai), with the other members looking just like him.
Notes[edit | edit source]
- Seeker seems to be designed after a chameleon; goggles resemble a chameleon's eyes, his hat the reptiles horn, a long tongue, and his striped sash hangs down from his waist to his legs like a tail.
- In the gag manga Elegy of the Fist King Army Grunts, Seeker admits that his night-vision goggles are in fact only binoculars, as there's no batteries left in the post-apocalyptic era.
