Jei – A tall anthropomorphic wolf with a black-bladed yari, Jei is known as Jei-san, The Blade of the Gods, The Black Soul, The Demon Spearman, and a number of other dark nicknames. As Max Allan Collins points out in the introduction to "Book #13: Grey Shadows", Inspector Ishida is, like the real Chang Apana, a more hardboiled character than the mild-mannered Charlie Chan from the novels by Earl Derr Biggers and the subsequent film adaptations. Ishida is based on real-life Honolulu policeman Chang Apana, who was also the model for the fictional detective Charlie Chan. #Usagi yojimbo shirt series#
Although the character was intended only as a one-shot in this story, he soon proved unexpectedly popular and series creator Stan Sakai has used him in numerous other stories. Ishida first appeared in "The Hairpin Murders".
In the seven-part miniseries The Hidden, he is revealed to be a secret Christian. In addition, when force is called for, he demonstrates formidable fighting skills using his standard police weapon, the jutte, although he is allowed to also carry a katana.
He is quiet, but highly observant and astute in his reasoning those faculties are invaluable in difficult cases like murder, in a culture where intensive examinations of dead bodies, like an autopsy, are taboo. Ishida, however, is a steadfastly honest officer with a deep commitment to the cause of justice, regardless of who the criminals and their victims are, and sometimes even seeing justice done if there is no legal way of achieving it.
