Ogata Isshinsai (緒方　一新斎?), or Kensei (拳聖?) (Voiced by: Akio Ōtsuka (Japanese), Jason Douglas (English)) would have been the first disciple of Ryōzanpaku; however, the elder saw that he had evil intentions. He is the true power behind Ragnarok. He is a Dou Martial Artist. He shows Kenichi the path of Asura, which the Elder wanted Kenichi to witness.
