The Usagi "Ghostbuster"

Post by Indiana Usagi »

I saw in one of the UY trade paperbacks (it might have even been Seasons, but I disremember) a paranormal mage/ghostbuster of some sort who helped Usagi fight the demonic spider witch thing. You guys remember what I'm talking about, right? I realize he made a "recent" appearance with the whole magic inks arc that made drawings real (I think he was in that), but is there a possibility of him appearing in the near future? Just thought it would be interesting, as he brings a whole supernatural feel to the UY books, which is, to my way of tinking, cool.

Just a thought.

That's Sasuké, the demon queller (spelling?)! He's one of my faves so far, along with Ishida. He appears in Demon Mask (book 14), in the story Kumo.

He will appear again for sure (if not, then a whole army of obakémono and gaki will go after Sakai-sensei and force him to draw Sasuké stories until the end of times!). I just don't know when. In the sumi-e story, Sasuké said something about a demon swordswoman (Inazuma-Jei!?!?), so he HAS to show up again sometime in the future.

Having Inazuma-Jei and Sasuke go at it would be wonderful eye candy. :) Maybe do it as a story in between big Usagi arcs, kind of a "filler" sort of thing, but with substantially more quality than most fillers.

Especially now that we're done with Usagi traveling with Jotaro... :(
That reminds me, did Usagi, Jotaro, and Gen ever meet up together? Or is that just wishful thining on my part?

Usagi an Gen won't run into each other for awhile. But Gen does meet up with Stray Dog, as they both go after Inazuma in UY 79.

It wouldn't be a real party unless we had Jei/Inazuma, Sasuke the Demon Queller, and the Lord of Owls (Oyama Tadanori) in on it too.
