Karasu was one of the most terrifying villains on the show.

As a member of Team Toguro, he doesn’t show up until the semi-finals to fight.

He absolutely humiliates and annihilates his enemy.

Turns out he was a forced servant of the Toguro brothers. After losing a battle against them years ago, he was forced to join their ranks.

He was gay for Kurama, yet planned to murder him. That’s definitely not a way to get a date.

He was the only opponent to terrify Kurama.

As he was obviously outmatched.

Luckily he could turn into Yoko Kurama and turn the tide of the battle.

Yoko Kurama was wasting too much time against him, a trait I didn’t expect out of him.

Karasu powers up as he starts to lose his Yoko form.

He decides to torture him before the final blow.

Giving Kurama the perfect chance to make a final attack.

Surprisingly ending his life.

Karasu managed to win the match though, as Kurama failed to kill him before the 10 count.

Leading to a disputed tournament call.
