Background/History: Utsutsu is possibly the most "normal" of the Eight Devils. He is a swordsmen, albeit a blind swordsmen. Possessing cultured mannerisms and dressed in fashionable clothing, Utsutsu can easily be underestimated. This can be a lethal mistake, as he is quite a capable killer.

Personality/Motivation: Utsutsu likes to test his skill against other swordsmen, and duel (or attempt to duel) any well-known warrior he comes across. His is very sure of his abilities, even going so far as to tell Jubei "In order to beat me you must not make a sound...." Due to his perceptive hearing, his blindness is only a small hindrance, but is still a disadvantage. As with all of the Eight Devils, he is subject to the orders of Himuro and Yurimaru.

Quote: "If you want to kill me, then don't make a sound."

Powers/Tactics: Aside from his physical prowess with the swords, Utsutsu is very strong (He supported Jubei and Kagero as they climbed up Jubei's sword wire with one hand), and is very fast. He is capable of blindingly fast sword strikes, quick dodges, and incredible leaps. His most impressive power, though, is his hearing. Although blind, Utsutsu is more than capable of fighting multiple opponents by listening to their movements. At one point he goes toe-to-toe with Jubei in a bamboo forest without a problem.

Appearance: Utsutsu is tall, about 6' in height, with a thin build. His hair is very long, falling almost to his waist. He is reasonably handsome, with eyes that are perpetually closed due to his blindness. He dresses in a fine white kimono and dark hakama. He carries a daisho (paired swords) in his belt.
