Kanou Shou was a disciple of Hongou Akira and the original leader of Yomi. As the leader, he was arguably the most powerful member of Yomi and the toughest opponent that Kenichi has ever fought. He was described by more than one member of Yomi as being 'perfect', even to the point of being 'too perfect' where he ended up defeated by Kenichi. He is nicknamed Suparna, a mythical creature in Hindu mythology said to possess beautiful wings. Shou often keeps a smile on his face even when fighting and acts in a goofy and playful manner. But when particularly annoyed or upset, he turns cold and attacks his opponent mercilessly. Shou is a bird lover and a bug hater.
