Kokichi

was a young boy who was taken by the Shibugarasu to be eaten. When the demon crow's body was destroyed by Inuyasha, Kokichi fell into a raging river and was taken away by the rapids; he was as good as dead since he could not swim. He was thankfully saved by the priestess Kagome Higurashi.

Manga vs. Anime

 * In the manga, Kagome rescues Kokichi by grabbing him before he hits the ground as he falls. In the anime, Kokichi falls into a river, and Kagome swims in to rescue him.

Trivia

 * His name is not revealed in the English translation of the series.
 * He shares the same Japanese and English voice actresses as Ayumi.
