The Imperial Guard of the Left of Yamato and an Akuruturuka, one of the bearers of the masks of power. His fighting prowess is said to match that of Oshtor’s, and together they are known as the Twin Shields of Yamato. In contrast with Oshtor, however, he has the wild and fierce demeanor of a battle-hardened warrior. Raiko is his elder brother. In battle, he wields a massive cleaver.

Like Oshtor, Mikazuchi also has another persona for when he needs to go incognito. This persona is known as Sakon, the gentle candyman. He is shown to have soft spot for children but can't express himself properly in Mikazuchi form due to his oppressing aura.
