Gamajirō



Gamajiro (sometimes referred to as Gama for short) is a toad demon who works for Orochidayu. He only appears in the anime in episodes 94 and 95 (manga book 3). He is voiced in the original Japanese version by Fumihiko Tachiki and his English voice actor is Ward Perry.

Gamajiro was asked to assist the bull demon Gyu-oh in creating a copy of the Shikon no Tama. To accomplish this, Gamajiro imprisoned humans that Orochidayu captured into a frog egg-like substance. He waits till the souls are then suitable for eating. The toad demon becomes so hungry when looking at the "delicious" humans' souls that Orochidayu has to constantly remind him not to eat them.

Gamajiro first appears when he possesses a young lord. The demon was collecting young women and devouring their souls. Kagome was able to defeat him by using some of her hair spray and a small torch. She burns Gamajiro, thus releasing the soul of the young lord.

When Inuyasha and his friends intervene with the demons' plans, Gamajiro enters the battle after InuYasha kills Orochidayu. When ordered by Gyu-oh to attack the half-breed, Gamajiro is killed along with all the other demons by InuYasha's Wind Scar attack.
