Kinagi Korenji
Kinagi Korenji is the Legendary Shadow Rider and the Head Captain of the 36 Districts of the Shadow Realm.He is the headmaster of Notaka High School and one of the strongest people in the Shadow Realm despite his childish behavior at times.He often wears a red and blue jacket with a crimson dragon being struck by lightning on the back.Above the dragon is his name in different colors.Underneath the dragon and around the bottom portion of the dragon are the flames.His pants are baby blue with black and golden crosses along the sides.His sneakers are light blue with multi-colored fireworks and his initials on the sides.Kinagi has a rainbow-colored amulet around his neck which keeps his other two souls Kai and Kaito in.Strapped to Kinagi's waist is a sheath which hold his sword.On the back of his pants is a weapon's pouch.It holds kunais,daggers,knives,shurikens,smoke bombs,grenades,sleeping gas,medicine,and other necessary items.Kinagi has blue gloves,the yin yang symbol on his right glove and a skull and crossbones on his left hand.His gloves hide the seals on his hands.These seals are the Shadow Rider Seal(proof that he is a registered Shadow Rider),the Crimson Seal(a seal that gives him the powers of a phoenix),the Phantom Seal,and the Korenji royal family seal.
Kinagi is a natural-born leader with the exception that he has somewhat of a childish behavior at times.Even with his parents and 97% of his clan killed by Kaito and his rival Ren Uchiha,Kinagi manages to keep a smile on his face.However,though people see him as a good person,he has often struggled with doing the right thing.He can never really tell what is right and wrong in the world.He often gets into trouble because of the troublesome influence that Kaito has on him.He will get good grades but his behavior continues to suffer because of Kaito.People describe Kaito as the "hitogoroshi" or murderer of the Korenji clan which is partially true because Ren had also played a part in the massacre of the Korenji clan.Kinagi gets his childish and outgoing personality from Kai,who has been known to improve the bad reputation created by Kaito.Kinagi is unable to take off the amulet that holds Kai and Kaito but they can take over his body through Kinagi's soul to which they are bonded.
Kinagi is skilled in many fighting styles due to his excessive knowledge of battle strategies.Kinagi is especially talented in the art of swordsmanship,which is his choice of weapon.He carries talismans in his pockets that have different elemental powers.Kinagi was able to control the elements after he had become an esper at the age of 14.He is particularly fond of the lightning talisman which is like the design on his jacket.Kinagi is the creator of the Shadow Style,the Dance of the Shadows,and many of the other Shadow Riders techniques.He is the one who has perfected them out of his own ideas and the ideas that he came up with in his numerous fights with Ren Uchiha and the other people he has faced in his time of living.
Shadow Riders and members of the Korenji family have Shi o ryōga suru nōryoku,or "the ability to surpass death.They can live forever without worrying about dying of old age.The remaining royal members of the Korenji family are Kinagi Korenji,Kaito Korenji,Kai Korenji,Daisuke Korenji,and Sika Korenji.They were all born in the kingdom of Noshashida,the birthplace of the Korenji foundation.This is located in the center of the Shadow Realm.Notaka High School is a far away from Noshashida but is still in the Shadow Realm.This is where Sika,Ren,and Kinagi went to school.Almost everyday after school,Kinagi and Ren would get into a fight.The first battle they had ever fought against each other at full power was in the Chaos Realm after they rescued Sika was kidnapped by the Chaos Riders.This was a personal battle because Ren had announced his love for Kinagi's sister Sika,which Kinagi did not approve of.In order to gain Kinagi's acceptance,Ren had to defeat him.In the end,the battle ended up just like all the others:a draw.Kinagi and Ren were taken back to the Shadow Realm and hospitalized.While there,Kinagi spoke with Ren on the roof of the hospital.In that moment Kinagi gave Ren his permission to date Sika.After they were dismissed from the hospital however,they continued to fight about who won that fight.Sika often teased them both about how they were both wrong because they fell unconscious at the same time.
Kinagi is the strongest in the Shadow Realm with the exception that Ren Uchiha is considered almost his equal.The next strongest is Kaito Korenji,whose "Yōshanaku korosu"(Kill without mercy) personality still dwells within Kinagi.Next is Kai Korenji,the creator of 98% of the Shadow Realm's techniques.After Kai is Kinagi's sister Sika Korenji,who has a second personality of her own known as Hitaku Oru.The list trails on from that point.The most unique of them however is Kinagi Korenji.
