Rei

Rei (レイ) is a playable character in Hokuto Musou and one of the six successors of the Nanto Seiken style. Originally a brute who only wanted revenge for his sister, he reforms into a man of benevolence and integrity after befriending Kenshiro. As guardian of the Justice Star, which states that one must live for others, Rei swears to use the remaining moments of his life to fight for friendship and love. He acts as Kenshiro's reliable partner for the early parts of the series.

Fighting Style
Nanto Suichōken is the most graceful of the Nanto style. On the surface, it has elegant footwork that resembles a dance. In reality, these movements are used to deliver painful slices to the user's opponents. Rei's version of the Nanto style focuses on his hands and manipulating the air around them, allowing his fingertips to cut through objects as though they were knives.

Techniques

 * Hien Ryūbu (The Flowing Dance of the Flying Swallow) - a leap that has Rei briefly mimic the form of a flying bird before he slices his target in perfect pieces. During the series, this move impresses other Nanto students and unintentionally earns Yuda's jealousy.
