Kenichi Shirahama

This is a profile for *Kenichi Shirahama* the character from the series *History's Strongest Disciple: Kenichi*.

## Summary

**Kenichi Shirahama** (アーカード *Ākādo***?**) was once a regular high school student, he then became a Disciple of the six masters of Ryōzanpaku, studying martial arts from them to not only get stronger, but to ultimately gain the strength and courage needed to protect the people and values that are most important to him. He is also a member and the honorary "co-founder" of the Shinpaku Alliance, alongside the founder Haruo Niijima (the latter of which he is not entirely happy about) and is currently a second year student at Kōryō High School in class 2-E. At the conclusion of the series, he not only marries the love of his life, Miu Fūrinji, but he finally becomes a Master himself.

## Items

Kenichi later in the series received Chain Mail Gauntlets.

## Powers/Skills

**Divinity**: Chi Manipulation (Kenichi later learned how to utilizing his own Ki for various affects, such as Statistics Alteration

**Natural**: Human Physiology (Kenichi is a skilled human fighter) Martial Arts (Kenichi learned several forms of martial arts from masters)

## Stats

**DC:** **Small Building:** Kenichi managed to fight against Berserker who could break apart a portion of a building (Likely Higher after training and end of series)

**Durability:** **Small Building:** Kenichi withstanding blows from characters similar in strength to Berserker.

**Speed:** **High Hypersonic:** He is capable of throwing kicks so fast that even high-speed camera's slowed down to 1/1000 of a second can only barely catch a glimpse of them. This feat is realistically above 10,000 m/s or Mach 30 given the fact that the camera even at 1/100 could not see him move at all, assuming it caught him moving a centimeter at this value he would have a speed of 10,000 m/s, added to the fact his right foot was only a blur at 1/1000 this number is pretty concrete.

**Range:** Standard melee range.

## Techniques

* **Seikūken:** A defensive technique first deployed by Elder himself. It involves controlling the entire radius within one's arm length, creating an impenetrable shield around oneself. The Seikūken can only be erected with a calm mind; if one is not calm, it would be near impossible to erect the Seikūken.
* **Ryūsei Seikūken:** A more advanced version of the Seikūken, instead of controlling the radius the Seikūken turns into a thin layer of skin to anticipate the flow of the opponent. For this technique, you have to be absolutely calm, as even slight changes in emotion can disrupt the flow but even though you can read the moves of the opponent it doesn't mean you can dodge it. There are 3 levels in Ryūsei Seikūken.
	+ **Level 1:** Read the opponent's flow.
	+ **Level 2:** Combine the opponent's movements with your own.
	+ **Level 3:** Overpower the opponent by anticipating his moves and use his flow against him before he even thinks of it.
* **Shockwave of forgetfulness:** Can erase an opponent's memories by using a blunt force attack from both hands to each side of the opponent's head. He can apparently control how much a person will forget.

## Feats

Kenichi Managed to climb up the ranks to be able to become a master martial artist, being able to fight and defeat other rising martial artists as well.

Eventually earned the respect and approval of legendary martial artists and the approval from one of them to even marry their granddaughter.

## Weakness/Limitations

Without the use of Ki, Kenichi would be as vulnerable to conventional weapons.
