Minor Characters

• Mansumi Oyamada (小山田 萬純, Oyamada Mansumi?)

Appearing only the manga, Mansumi, age 55, is the father of Manta Oyamada and the owner of Oyamada Enterprises, a famous energy development company. He is extremely wealthy and ambitious, hoping eventually to expand his business into outer space. Mansumi's first appearance is relatively minor, when he expresses harsh disapproval with Manta's determination to remain friends with Yoh after both Manta and Yoh are hospitalized following Yoh's fight against Faust. In a much later appearance it is revealed that he has been using Manta to track down the shamans, eventually bringing a large fleet of ships to the Shaman Fight's isolated island location to find the lost continent of Mu. The situation leads to a temporary union between the teams of Yoh and Hao, which ends when Hao single-handedly destroys nearly all the ships except the one Mansumi is on board due to a moment of weakness from Hao realizing he was facing people who are parents. After his defeat, Mansumi is captured and held hostage by Anna, who agrees to let him talk to Manta in private. Manta manages to convince Mansumi to allow him to remain on the island with his friends as everyone waits for the outcome of the plan to defeat Hao.

Mansumi has a wife, Keiko (圭子?) (37 years old), and two children: Manta and a daughter, Mannoko (小山田 まんの子?). Mannoko is a severe girl who enjoys mocking her brother and, despite being only five years old, is a master with computers who runs the Oyamada Enterprises' software department. Both Mansumi and his daughter share Manta's short stature. In contrast to the rest of her family, Keiko Oyamada has a slim build and average height, but possesses a shallow and superficial attitude; Manta rejects her when she asks Manta not to remain friends with Yoh because it would hurt the family's reputation to be seen with a spiritualist.

• Midori Tamurazaki (田村崎 緑, Tamurazaki Midori?)

One of the Oyamada family's employees, who is assigned to accompany Manta to America. While Tamurazaki does as Manta asks, his loyalties actually belong to Mansumi and he stays with Manta to spy and gather information on shamans for his employer in preparation for invading the deserted island of Tokyo where the Shaman Fight is taking place. He is cool and calculating even before most of Hao's followers, gunning down a several of them with an M134 Vulcan after revealing that because he does not believe in souls he is not affected by the forbidden killing curse from the Ultra Senji Ryakketsu. He manages to disappear after Mansumi is captured by Anna.

• Orona (オロナ?)

Voiced by: Takaya Hashi

A South American Native American who was living homeless in New York City when he became Joco's teacher and guardian. Believing that laughter is the best medicine to solving the world's problems, he teaches Joco to give up his violent, gang ways to become both a shaman as well as a wielder of bad puns and jokes. Though he became a target of the SHAFT gang, Orona had previously made peace with death both due to his age and ill health, and smiled as he died because he knew that his will would be carried on. When Joco is killed by the Munzer children's Golem, Orona becomes his guide through Hell to help him regain his life as well as the spirit Pascal Avaf.

• Lilirara (リリララ, Ririrara?)

Voiced by: Mami Kayama (Japanese), Erica Schroeder (English)

Lilirara, a member of the Seminoa tribe, is angry at the Patch tribe and believes that the Patch tribe massacred her ancestors. She tries to prevent the shamans of this present shaman fight from reaching the Patch Village, telling them that the Patch are really killers, and that the same fate that befell the Seminoa will befall them. Hao later reveals that it was he, not the Patch, who killed the Seminoa. Hao then kills Lilirara right after Yoh and his cohort leave her to go to Patch Village.

• Lycan Usui (碓氷リカン, Usui Rikan?)

The father of Horohoro and Pirika, who describes himself only as an office worker and is commonly referred to as "Oyaji" (meaning "old man") by his son. He adamantly believes that once his children leave home, he is no longer responsible for their well-being; however, he also hopes that they will become strong and does not care if they abandon their heritage to do so. During the Shaman Fight, Kalim brings him to save Horohoro when Horohoro is forced to fight against Blocken and Big Guy Bill to save the Icemen. However, Lycan elects to do nothing, revealing that he had come only because Pirika had begged him to and leaves the island on a makeshift raft right in front of Bill, who is overpowered by Lycan's spirit Gororo. Before he leaves, he repeats the creed that he has always told Horohoro - "the strong prey upon the weak" - but adds that those words do not mean one should give up. He is later captured by Mansumi Oyamada and brought abroad his ship as a prisoner. After he is freed, he appears at the barbecue held by the Asakura and Tao families and their allies, where he catches a tuna fish and waits with Pirika as Anna announces the final furyoku levels of Yoh and his friends.
