Shuuji Niekawa



Shuji Niekawa (贄川 周二 Niekawa Shuuji) is a reporter who writes for a magazine called Tokyo Incidents. It features weird events or noteworthy societies in Tokyo. Because of a planned special he comes to Ikebukuro with the intention of researching various topics such as who is regarded to be the strongest on the streets.

His daughter is Haruna Niekawa who believes herself to be the possessor of the original Saika. He is stabbed outside of his house by her and becomes one of the Saika Army. Once he is recovered, Haruna has him attack Anri Sonohara. He is stopped by Kyohei Kadota and his gang, as well as Celty Sturluson and, ultimately, Shizuo Heiwajima. Although taking damage that would otherwise kill a person, he appears to still be alive and have no memory of what happened to him after getting stabbed.
