Jaken

Jaken (邪見, Ja Ken) is a small green imp-like yōkai who is extremely loyal to Sesshomaru, often praising his master's greatness. He was voiced by Don Brown.

Although Jaken is not as powerful as his employeer, he is skilled at wielding the Jintou Tsue (人頭杖, Staff of Two Heads). He seldom engages in battle and is actually killed by Kaijinbo with Tōkijin, but Sesshomaru resurrects him with Tenseiga.

Biography
In the early part of the story, Jaken uses the Staff of Two Heads to find InuYasha's and Sesshomaru's father's grave. He eventually became not much more than comic relief, having hardly any role in the story.

Relationships
At first Jaken disliked Rin as she was a human. However, as time went by he began to treat her better. Jaken sometime acts as if he hates her, but in truth he doesn't want Rin to get hurt and whenever there's trouble, Jaken always tells Sesshomaru to save her.
 * Rin

Jaken respects Sesshomaru and always praises Sesshomaru whenever he defeats a demon, much to Sesshomaru's annoyance. Jaken always sticks by Sesshomaru's side even when times of danger.
 * Sesshomaru

Jaken and InuYasha have a very bitter relationship. Despite the number of times InuYasha has saved him, he always turns against him due to the conflict between InuYasha and Sesshomaru.

Anime/Manga Difference
The manga explains little about Jaken's past, but the anime shows that Jaken was once a lord among similar demons (episode 79 "Jaken's Plan to Steal Tetsusaiga). During battle with another Yōkai tribe, the enemy leader had Jaken by his neck when Sesshomaru appeared and told the demon to move out of his path. When this was not obeyed, he calmly destroyed the Yōkai with his poison whip. Out of a sense of obligation, Jaken followed Sesshomaru, who allowed him to become a servant if he could use the Staff of Two Heads.
