List of Legend of Heavenly Sphere Shurato characters
This is a list of characters and organizations from the manga and anime Legend of Heavenly Sphere Shurato.
The Hachibushu
editIn the world of Tenkūkai, the Eight Legions (八部衆, Hachibushū) are a group of eight mystical warriors of legend (inspired by the traditional eight guardians of Buddhism tradition). Presumably, they are all the same people repeatedly reincarnated without any memories of their former lives. Their primary purpose is to defend the leader of Tenkūkai, Lady Vishnu and the rest of Tenkūkai from forces of evil called the Asura Gods. Alternatively they are also called the Deva Gods, seemingly based on both the Hindu Deva deities and the Buddhist supernatural beings. They are extremely powerful, possessing large quantities of Soma (光流, Sōma), the inner essence that is the source of their power, and politically high-ranked, taking direct orders only from Indrah and Vishnu herself.
Each of the Hachibushu possesses a Shakti (神甲冑, Shakuchi), a murti (known as Veda (ヴェーダ, Vēda)) that serves as a lantern, modeled after various mythical beings. By holding their Shaktis and chanting a specific mantra, any of the Hachibushu can transform into a super-powered version of themselves, clad in mystical body armor also modeled after an animal, and wielding a legendary weapon. While in armor form, the Hachibushu are stronger, tougher, and can manipulate their Soma into extremely powerful techniques. Multiple Hachibushu can also work together to combine their techniques. The Hachibushu can also cause a partial transformation of their Shakti, turning it not into armor but a vahana (known as Valuda (バルダ, Baruda)), a hoverboard-like vehicle with green fireball-shaped wheels/thrusters on both sides used for rapid transportation.
During the course of the anime, two of the Hachibushu, Shurato and Hyūga, are framed for the petrification of Vishnu and assumed evil. They eventually persuade two other Hachibushu, Ryōma and Reiga to their cause. These four become the "good" Hachibushu, whereas the other four become primary antagonists in the show.
Shurato, the King Shura
editHidaka Shurato (日高秋亜人), also Shura-ō Shurato (修羅王シュラト) and (Su・ra・to) in the Siddhaṃ script.
Voiced by: Toshihiko Seki (Next time announcement narration)
Shurato Hidaka or Shurato, the King Shura, is the main protagonist of the series. A 16-year-old from Earth, Shurato is a brash, reckless, rude, impatient, and lazy individual. However, he is also brave, compassionate, and pure-hearted, and his resolve becomes the backbone of the "good" Hachibushu on their quest and the rallying point of the protagonists. His unfit behavior for a hero is remarked upon by many characters. He is an accomplished martial arts, a trait that quickly becomes useful in his time on Tenkūkai.
When he first discovers he is the reincarnation of a god on Tenkūkai, and is destined to fight the Asura Gods, Shurato is reluctant to get involved, although he does find Lady Vishnu extremely attractive. However, after witnessing a fight between Reiga and Ryōma, Shurato resolves to join the fight in order to prevent best friends from fighting each other and restore the peace in Tenkūkai. His other primary motivation is discovering what really happened to his best friend Gai.
Shurato and Gai have been best friends since high school, a seemingly unlikely pair due to their drastically differing personalities, but the two are extremely loyal to each other. Both martial arts masters, they are depicted as perfect equals, and were teleported to Tenkūkai in the midst of a tournament round battle. As Shurato is the best friend of Gai and knows he would never intentionally harm another living being, he is extremely confused and distraught when a changed Gai attempts to kill him and others repeatedly. Shurato resolves to return Gai to normal, an act which he attempts several times but fails.
His Shakti armor is inspired by a lion-like Shura being, and his weapons are a vajra—a one-handed club-like weapon and also a ceremonial object—and a shield. As Shurato has not been trained in the fighting styles and techniques of the Hachibushu, he is the only one of the eight who at first does not know how to manipulate his Soma correctly and perform his Soma techniques. However, he substitutes his Earth-trained martial arts instead, and is eventually taught to utilize the full potential of his powers.
Later, it is revealed that Shurato is one of the successors of Brahma, the Creator of Tenkūkai and presumably Earth. Brahma sacrificed his mortal form to seal away the Asura Gods 10,000 years prior to the events of the anime, leaving behind only his sacred Shakti, which would bestow godlike powers to its wielder. As Gai is also a successor to Brahma, the two best friends battle for control of the artifact, with Shurato ultimately being the victor. However, he initially cannot use it, as in order to unleash the power of Brahma, there must be a balance between light and dark, with Shurato representing the light and Gai representing the dark. This means Shurato and Gai must work together to use the power of Brahma.
Techniques:
- Shura's Demon Destroying Fist (修羅魔破拳, Shura Mahha-ken)
- Shura's Demon Destroying Vajra Attack (修羅金剛魔破拳, Shura Kongō Mahha-ken)
- Shura's Light Fist (修羅光破拳, Shura Kōhaken)
- Demonic Wolf's Gale Sword (疾風魔狼剣, Shippū Marōken)
- Beast King's Maṇḍala Formation – Lion's Face (獣王曼陀羅陣・獅子の面, Jūō Mandara-jin – Shishi no Men)
Gai, the King Yaksha
editKuroki Gai (黒木凱), also Yasha-ō Gai (夜叉王ガイ)
Voiced by: Takehito Koyasu
Gai Kuroki or Gai, the King Yaksha, is one of the major antagonists of the show and a primary character. He was the best friend of Shurato on Earth, but became his worst enemy on Tenkūkai. He is the second person to find Shurato after he is teleported to Tenkūkai (the first being Laksh), and attempts to kill him. As Shurato does not know how to use his Soma correctly, he is defeated, but before he can be killed, Gai is fought off by Reiga. Gai's apparent hatred for Shurato confuses the hero throughout the show.
Gai was a brother of sorts to Shurato on Earth, having been friends and companions since childhood. Like Shurato, he was a martial arts master, but unlike the reckless, brash Shurato, who only focused on complete offense, the calm and pacifist Gai practiced an almost entirely defensive style. The two were equals, with a record between them of 30 wins and 30 losses each. Gai was also extremely compassionate, having once nursed a pigeon back to health amongst other various good deeds.
However, on Tenkūkai, Gai exhibits a completely different personality, full of hatred and rage towards Shurato and a willingness to hurt and kill anyone in his path. This completely sadistic Gai confuses Shurato, who often attempts to reason with him instead of fight him, initially unwilling to hurt his best friend. As Gai utilizes dark Soma (marked by a dark blue coloring instead of the normal golden), Shurato eventually realizes Gai is under the influence of the Asura Gods and attempts to free him, but is unsuccessful.
Later, it is revealed that when Vishnu teleported Shurato and Gai from Earth, Shiva managed to disrupt the spell, kidnapping Gai and causing Shurato to randomly land somewhere in Tenkūkai in the process. The captive Gai was then filled with Shiva's dark Soma, corrupting him and turning him into the evil warrior of the anime. Shiva did this as she/he knew that Gai was one of the successors of Brahma, intending to groom him as his/her champion so that he could obtain the power of the creator god.
His Shakti armor is inspired by the Yaksha wolf-like being, and his weapons are a longsword, a large chackram—that rests on the back of his Shakti—and a shield. He is apparently the most powerful of the Hachibushu, able to match four others at once in a battle, although this may simply be the result of his blessings from Shiva. He attempts to kill Shurato multiple times but fails. He also comes close to obtaining the power of Brahma, but fails in that also. Although Shurato works hard to return Gai to normal, he is unsuccessful until the very end, when a released Gai combines his power with Shurato's to summon the armor of Brahma and defeat Shiva. Gai dies in the battle, appearing later only as a voice and a flashback.
Techniques:
- Demonic Wolf's Gale Sword (疾風魔狼剣, Shippū Marōken)
- Yaksha's Life Drainer (夜叉金剛縛, Yasha Kingōshō)
Reiga, the King Garuda
editKarura-ō Reiga (迦楼羅王レイガ)
Voiced by: Kazuhiko Inoue
Reiga, the King Garuda is the Hachibushu who returns Shurato to Vishnu and teaches him a lot about Tenkūkai, and the last to join Shurato's group of "good" Hachibushu. Extremely intelligent, Reiga is skilled in the manipulation of Soma and knows much of the geography of Tenkuukai and the lore surrounding the Devas and Asura. He is depicted as very effeminate, although this is never stated.
Reiga at first appears as a very lazy and laid-back individual, unwilling to get involved with troublesome affairs and generally not very well liked by some of the other Hachibushu, who are more devout and diligent. However, this demeanor belies an intelligent and serious mind, and Reiga is actually a very calculative and perceptive individual. He discovers the truth behind the conspiracy on his own, realizing that Indrah is the actual culprit and Shurato is innocent.
Reiga strongly respects the like-minded Kūya, who are both very intelligent and masters of manipulating Soma. The two are then pitted against each other while trying to open the Heiseimon Gate, but Reiga refuses to fight, instead trying to persuade Kūya back onto his side. After an exhausting battle, Kūya dies in Reiga's arms, and a resolute Reiga vows to fight in honor of his friend.
His Shakti armor is inspired by the bird-like Karura mythical being of Phoenix, the Japanese Buddhist name of the Garuda, and his weapons are a pair of large rings and a shield. He knows the most techniques of any of the Hachibushu, and most of them revolve around feathers or the fire aspect of his totem animal. As he is not a very physical-minded warrior, he often uses his rings in his Soma techniques rather than for combat.
Techniques:
- Garuda's Feather Blizzard (迦楼羅翼吹雪, Karura Hanefubuki)
- Garuda's Spiritual Vision Feathers (迦楼羅霊視羽, Karura Reishiu)
- Garuda's Super Scattering of Spiritual Vision Feathers (迦楼羅霊視羽超伝播, Karura Reishiu Chōdenban)
- Garuda's Wings Lightning Storm (迦楼羅翼紫嵐, Karura Yokushiran)
- Garuda's Fire Wings Formation (迦楼羅火翼陣, Karura Kayokujin)
- Beast King's Maṇḍala Formation – Bird's Face (獣王曼陀羅陣・猛禽の面, Jūō Mandara-jin – Mōkin no Men)
Hyūga, the King Deva
editTen-ō Hyūga (天王ヒュウガ)
Voiced by: Kenyū Horiuchi
Hyūga, the King Deva is the leader of the Hachibushu, and the most devoted follower of Vishnu. Stalwart to a fault, Hyūga idolized Vishnu and Indrah and for a time could think of nothing but blindly fighting to cure Vishnu from her petrification. At first, Hyūga despised Shurato due to his laziness and sacrilege, but came to regard him as a friend due to their similar ideals regarding camaraderie.
Hyūga's best friend is Ryōma, the two having trained and fought together in the past to the point where they know each other's strategies and techniques by heart. When Ryōma is manipulated into thinking Hyūga is evil, the two do battle, but due to their similar strengths and knowledge of the other's abilities, they fight into a standstill. This battle convinces Shurato to join Hyūga and help Vishnu, if only to prevent best friends from having to fight each other ever again.
Hyūga is also strongly hinted to have feelings for Renge, but he never acts on them or informs her of his feelings. During the opening of the Heiseimon Gate, he is pitted against Renge, and after realizing they were not meant to be together, he regrettably freezes her solid and kills her. A now resolute Hyūga vows to kill Indrah and fight for his love.
His Shakti armor is inspired by a tiger-like Deva, mythical beings known in Japan as Ten, and his weapons are a form of nunchaku, somewhat of a split between a kanabō, a surujin and a chain whip that is able to be used as either a throwing weapon or a rope, and a shield. Many of his abilities revolve around ice, and he is able of creating walls of ice and freezing opponents solid.
Techniques:
- Deva's Crystal Bind (天王水晶結, Ten-ō Suishōketsu)
- Deva's Magical Subduing Steel (天王降魔鋼, Ten-ō Gōmakō)
- Deva's Magical Destroyer Steel (天王滅魔鋼, Ten-ō Etsubakō)
- Beast King's Maṇḍala Formation – Tiger's Face (獣王曼陀羅陣・猛虎の面, Jūō Mandara-jin – Mōko no Men)
Ryōma, the King Dragon
editRyū-ō Ryōma (龍王リョウマ)
Voiced by: Kōichi Yamadera (Narration of Episodes)
Ryōma, the King Dragon is the strongest member of the Hachibushu, a massive warrior and a devoted follower of Vishnu. Ryōma's devotion to Vishnu ultimately trumps his trust for Hyūga, and thinking his best friend has somehow been corrupted, Ryōma sets out to kill Hyūga and Shurato.
Ryōma and Hyūga are best friends, and the two exhibit similar personalities. Ryōma comes to appreciate Shurato's ideals as well, and forms a loyal camaraderie with his fellow Hachibushu. Ryōma is set to fight Gai during the opening of the Heiseimon Gate, and although the group is unsuccessful in releasing Gai from the grip of his dark masters, this event fully convinces Ryōma of Shurato's will and fighting spirit, and he resolves to aid him.
His Shakti armor is inspired by the dragon-like Nāga, and his weapons are a trishula—an Asian trident—and a shield. Due to his immense strength, he is able of wielding his heavy weapon with great skill and agility.
Techniques:
- Dragon King's Blazing Halberd (龍王火炎戟, Ryū-ō Kaengeki)
- Dragon King's Explosive Flames (龍王爆炎戟, Ryū-ō Bakurengeki)
- Beast King's Maṇḍala Formation – Dragon's Face (獣王曼陀羅陣・龍の面, Jūō Mandara-jin – Ryū no Men)
Renge, the Queen Nara
editNāra-ō Renge (那羅王レンゲ)
Voiced by: Megumi Hayashibara
Renge, the Queen Nara is the only female member of the Hachibushu. As the sole female in a field of mostly men, she exhibits an unreasonable willingness to prove her strength and superiority to the others, especially the feminine Reiga. She is the target of much love from Mari'ichi and Hyūga, but does not reciprocate these feelings in either case.
Rather, she is obsessively in love with Indrah, being in a one-sided relationship where she blindly follows him even when she witnesses evidence of his evil and betrayal of Vishnu. Ultimately, she seems to realize her own folly and the futility of her actions, and allows herself to be frozen and killed by Hyuuga, achieving happiness and peace at last.
Her Shakti armor is inspired by the unicorn-like Kinnara mythical beings, and her weapons are a lotus flower-shaped phurba that doubles as a rope dart and as well as a shuriken launcher, and a shield. She is also able to use her blade as a sort of gun, firing Soma in her techniques.
Techniques:
- Nara's Lonely Flower (那羅無双華, Nāra Musōka)
- Nara's Crimson Spiritual Petals (那羅朱霊華, Nāra Shureika)
- Eight Guardians' Ultimate Triple Shot (八部衆三練功, Hachibushu Sanrenkō)
Kūya, the King Dappa
editDappa-ō Kūya (闥婆王クウヤ)
Voiced by: Kazuhiro Nakata
Kūya, the King Dappa is the most devout of the Hachibushu. He is very humble and polite, and is often seen meditating. This pits him against Shurato, as he witnesses him desecrating Vishnu's palace early on, and is convinced of his corruption. He is very respected and idolized by the citizens of Tenkūkai.
Very intelligent, Kūya is skilled in the manipulation of his Soma, able to mask his and other's Soma or turn invisible. When he fights Reiga during the opening of the Heiseimon Gate, Kuuya is not fully convinced of his innocence and refuses to stop fighting, until he is shown a vision of his own sister's death. He realizes he has been wrong, but he is mortally wounded and it is too late, and he dies in the arms of his friend.
His Shakti armor is inspired by the buffalo-like Gandharva mythical spirits, known in Japan as Dappa, appropriate due to his slow and steady nature. His weapons are one or two wheel-shaped chakrams and a shield. His abilities primarily revolve around summoning and controlling water.
Techniques:
- Dappa's Whirlpool (闥婆水滸輪, Dappa Suikōrin)
- Dappa's Sea-mine Piercer (闥婆水雷染, Dappa Suiraisen)
- Eight Guardians' Ultimate Triple Shot (八部衆三練功, Hachibushu Sanrenkō)
Dan, the King Hiba
editHiba-ō Dan (比婆王ダン)
Voiced by: Nobuo Tobita
Dan, the King Hiba is a strong member of the Hachibushu. The youngest of five brothers, Dan is brash and hot-headed like Shurato, and often seeks to prove his strength. After a meeting with Vishnu, however, Dan became a changed man, and is obsessively devoted to her. As such, after her petrification, Dan is more than willing to fight the "corrupted" ones and kill them.
During the opening of the Heiseimon Gate, Dan fights Shurato, easily overpowering him and seemingly killing him. However, due to the actions of Laksh, he begins to doubt himself, until he and Shurato clash in a final test of power. Although they are evenly matched, Dan is distracted when a pendant given to him by Vishnu is broken, and as a result he is defeated. The last thing Dan does before he dies is close his hand around the pendant, a reminder of how his life was changed by the woman he idolized.
His Shakti armor is inspired by the rhinoceros-like Mahoraga mythical beings, and his weapons are a parashu—an Indian battle axe—and a shield. His powers revolve around earth, he is able to create quicksand and minor earthquakes.
Techniques:
- Hiba's Quicksand Surge (比婆流砂洸, Hiba Ryūsakō)
- Hiba's Earthquake Smash (比婆激震破, Hiba Gekishin-ha)

Indrah
editVishnu's right hand and the traitor who petrifies her, pitting the Hachibushu against each other.
The Asura Gods are powerful warriors who tried to conquer Tenkūkai in the distant past, led by Shiva, the god of destruction. Ten thousand years before the events in the 20th century, they battled the Hachibushu in one of their previous incarnations, in a war of cataclysmic proportions and were sealed after their defeat by Lady Vishnu. Their seal is removed by Indra, who sends three of their prominent warriors to kill the Hachibushu, to whom they introduce themselves as the Beast Fang Trio.

Using a form of mist, she overpowers Shurato easily, although he manages to escape the mist and turn the battle to his favor. Trailō then erases Shurato's memories of Tenkūkai and his friends and sends him back to the earthly plane of existence, to the very moment of his match against Gai.

He engages the Hachibushu after the defeats of Kundalini and Trailoh, subduing them effortlessly, and taking Saras' life. Acalanatha's superiority over his opponents was overwhelming, until Ryōma was able to discover his weakness, thanks to the memories of the Ryū-ō Shakti from the battle with Acalanatha millennia ago. Acalanatha was killed by Ryōma at the cost of his own life. Later, Acalanatha resurfaces even more powerful, revived by Shiva, and wreaks havoc among the ranks of Vishnu's servants.
