Kitaro

**Kitarō** (鬼太郎, *Kitarō*), also known as **GeGeGe no Kitarō** (ゲゲゲの鬼太郎), is a shinobi and yōkai boy born in a cemetery after the death of his parents. Aside from his mostly-decayed father, Medama-Oyaji, he is the seemingly last surviving member of the Same Bito Tribe. He fights for peace between humans and yōkai, which generally involves protecting the former from the wiles of the latter.

His father is Medama-Oyaji, and his mother was Iwako.

## Background

Kitarō's mother, Iwako died while she was still pregnant with him, and she and his father were buried by the blood banker Mizuki. But three days later, Kitarō crawls out of her womb and the grave by his own power.

After his birth he was taken in by Mizuki, but Kitarō treated him coldly and ran away at age 6, leaving on an aimless journey with his reanimated father (see Medama-Oyaji), eventually settling into a peaceful life in GeGeGe Forest. As a child, he attended Yōkai Elementary with Neko-Musume. According to Nezumi-Otoko, Kitarō attended the Yōkai Study Hall with him.

Kitarō usually lives together with Medama-Oyaji in a tree house commonly referred to as the GeGeGe House, Because he owns various Human World goods it seems he has money, but this is never made clear. He essentially lives a poor life, and in the original manga he is seen rummaging through garbage cans. he doesn't usually receive a reward whenever he solves incidents, at most he will receive free food and bedding whenever he stays with someone. Some clients will offer him a large monetary reward, but he usually recommends they put that money towards hospital bills or, if such is the case, offerings to the Yōkai they disturbed.

## Abilities

As the last descendant of the prestigious Same Bito Tribe, Kitarō uses several items handed down from his ancestors and relies on the help of numerous powerful yōkai. He has an assortment of strange powers at his disposal, but his most bizarre is his tremendous life force and regenerative powers, powers most yōkai do not have. He can regurgitate his stomach acid and carry creatures such as snakes inside his body, which allows him to turn the tables in tricky situations. Because he has so many all-purpose abilities (see below), there appears to be no situation he can't handle and no trap he can't escape from. In essence, Kitarō has no true weaknesses.

On top of all of this, he has a tremendous amount of chakra. However, he is known to immediately weaken if he is deprived of his tools, making the true source of his power hard to figure out.

Kitarō's chakra increases tremendously whenever he becomes infuriated. While in this state, he appears to be consumed by dark flames.

## Transformations

Throughout the AU, whether voluntarily as part of a plan or forcibly by an enemy, Kitarō has been transformed into his shark form on a number of occasions. Even a form resembling Kisame Hoshigaki

When transformed Kitarō will usually lose his regular powers, though he often gains special powers from those forms.
