Overview

Insert the text of the quote here, without quotation marks.

— To Asta in The Other New Member

Yami Sukehiro 「ヤミ・スケヒロ Yami Sukehiro」 is a foreigner from the Hino Country[3] and the first captain of the Clover Kingdom's Black Bull squad of the Magic Knights.[4][5] He is also a former member of the Grey Deer squad.[2]

Appearance

Yami is a tall man with a very muscular build. He has grey eyes and black hair of medium length that is messily combed backward, making it stick outwards. Additionally, he sports a stubble mustache and beard.

Yami's attire is very simple and consists only of a white A-shirt and black trousers. The trousers have an extra layer of tan leather that covers his outer thighs and down to his knees. The trousers are only supported by a belt around his waist. Yami wears another pair of belts, one of which he uses to carry his grimoire. Lastly, he wears black high boots that cover most of his calves.

As the captain of the Black Bull squad, Yami wears a black banner with the squad's insignia on it. He wears it over his right shoulder and it is attached by two strings to his left shoulder. The banner also has tattered edges, seeming to have been ripped off from a bigger banner.

For the Star Awards Festival, Yami wears a simple robe over a fundoshi, and a twisted hachimaki tied in the front. He also carries an uchiwa. The fan and the back of the robe bear the kanji 祭 ("festival"), and the linings of his robe bear the kanji for "raging bull" 「暴れ牛 abare ushi」.[6]

In Yami's youth, he wore the same thing, but his build was not as muscular.

Personality

Yami angered by Asta

Yami after Asta bumped him.

Yami is uncouth, reckless, slightly hypocritical, and prone to delivering death threats at the slightest provocation. Nevertheless, he is a powerful and well-respected Magic Knight who was able to recognize Asta's merits when none of the other Captains would give him a chance.

He is typically a stoic man who believes more in actions than in words. He is very hot-headed, who can be easily angered by small matters such as being bumped by another person or interrupted when talking .[7] Yami also has a penchant for intimidation whether he uses threatening words or physically harms his target.[8][9] He also tends to immediately go straight for a more physical solution to any problems or confrontations, such as when he destroys a part of the squad's headquarters to calm his subordinates.[10] Despite being very bull-headed, reckless, and unrefined , Yami is an experienced and perceptive warrior, picking apart his opponent's strategies with a glance and is constantly trying to come up with counters for them.

Furthermore, he also prefers instilling tough love to his subordinates by giving them dangerous missions. He believes that it is the best way for them to overcome their limits and grow stronger.[11][12] Yami also does not discriminate people according to their social status or circumstances where he is willing to accept Luck Voltia, Noelle Silva, and Asta to join his ranks, even though he is aware of each of their problems.[12][13][14] His concern for them is likely tied to his own circumstances, being treated as an outcast in his youth like they are.

Battle Prowess

Magic

  • Dark Magic: Yami uses this magic attribute to generate and manipulate the element of darkness.[15] He primarily uses this magic by channeling it into his sword.[16] This magic has the ability to draw in other forms of magic, namely Light Magic, absorbing it into the darkness.[17] His magic can also affect the other world.[18]
  • Reinforcement Magic: Yami uses this form of magic to increase his physical abilities. It also allows him to make up for the slow speed of his Dark Magic.[19]

Abilities

  • Master Swordsman: Yami has described himself as a magic swordsman.[21] He is extremely skilled in swordsmanship; he easily fights on par with Patolli, the leader of the Eye of the Midnight Sun, with nothing but swordplay in conjunction with his Dark Magic, destroying the surrounding environment.[22]
  • Enhanced Strength: Yami has incredible physical strength which he further increases with magic. He easily throws Asta a considerable distance with just one hand.[23][24]
  • Enhanced Reflexes: Using ki, Yami can predict and react to attacks that others cannot keep up with[25] and nonchalantly counters these attacks without having to turn around.[26]
  • Immense Durability: Yami is an extremely durable fighter, remaining unfazed when hit by Patolli's light blades,[27] and emerges completely unscathed at his attempted cave in.[28]
  • Enhanced Speed: Yami is very fast, able to keep up with and surprise someone as fast as Patolli with his speed.[29] When Lotus Whomalt attempts to launch a surprise attack on William Vangeance, despite having to climb a massive tree,[30] Yami arrives just in time to intercept him.[31] He is also capable of dodging Marx's elf-enhanced arrows[32] that are faster than normal.[33]
  • Ki: A principle originating from his homeland, this skill allows Yami to use a sixth sense to perceive and react to unseen attacks and persons.[34]
  • Immense Magic Power: As a captain of a Magic Knights squad, Yami possesses an immense amount of magic power, as shown when the anti-birds flee as soon as they realize his presence.[35] This is further proven when the slightest release intimidates multiple people.[8] After Yami blocks and counters Patolli, Valtos wonders if the captain could rival the Magic Emperor.[36] Gifso, the High Priest of the Seabed Temple, acknowledges Yami as being too powerful for his game.[37] After watching his squad fight at the brink of death, he surpasses his limits to escape the Eye of the Midnight Sun's dimensional trap, and becomes powerful enough to easily defeat Vetto.[38] Julius Novachrono states that Yami has grown more powerful after he returns to the kingdom.[39] He estimates that his amount of magic power outclasses most commoners and nobles, with only very powerful royals such as Nozel, the strongest of elves such as Licht and Charla, and devils surpassing him in this regard.[40] Yami is ranked as a Arcane Stage mage.[41]
  • Mana Zone: Yami can control all the mana in an area around him to increase his spells' power and range.[42]

Equipment

  • Katana: Yami uses a katana in combat.[44] It is from his homeland, the Hino Country.[45] It was broken by Vetto during their first encounter,[46] but replaced with a brand new one afterwards.[47]
  • Communication Device: Yami possesses a small device that allows him to communicate with the members of his squad. It can only transmit audio.[48]

  • "I like strong women, ya know? But there's nothing wrong in relying on others sometimes, right? And there's plenty strong people you can trust... among us Magic Knights, don't you think?" 「強えー女は好きだぜ? だがたまには誰かに頼ってもいんじゃねーの? そんな頼れる強ぇーヤツらがいっぱいいんのが オレ達魔法騎士団だろ? "Tsuē on'na wa sukida ze?
