Shichika Yasuri

Shichika Yasuri (鑢 七花, Yasuri Shichika) is the male protagonist of the series Katanagatari and the seventh head of the Kyotōryū school of Japanese sword martial arts.

Personality
As Shichika knows nothing of the outside world, he is often confused by simple customs and even has trouble telling people apart. He was raised as a weapon, and as such, is bad at expressing emotion, though he does regard Togame as his wielder. He states that he is in love with her, following her orders even when finding them to be a hassle. As he meets more people, he becomes more human and feels remorse for his previous actions.

Appearance
Shichika has a seven-pointed leaf motif throughout his design. His hair is shaped as a leaf and leaves appear on his belt, hands, ponytail, and hakama. As Shichika is not familiar with society, he walks around only half-clothed. He considers being fully clothed a hassle as it impairs his movement while fighting. At the end of the series, he wears a one-sleeved kimono and belt similar to Togame's, as well as tying a lock of her hair to his belt.
