'''Yajirou Kojima''' is a swordsman also known as the "Rearguard Tiger" or "Tiger of the Rearguard", who battles in an attempt to become the world’s greatest samurai. He is called the Tiger by Templar because the more cornered Yajirou becomes, the greater his abilities become. A former rebel, he was working as a mercenary until he met Rushuna. Although Yajirou disdains the use of firearms, he is very skilled and can dodge bullets and parry them with his sword. He is also shown to be physically very strong by tossing and crushing boulders with his bare hands. He can also slice massive cannon shells in half. He belonged to a branch family of the Kojima clan. This clan was led by Midare Kojima and his sister, Suguna. Yajirou intended to go out and make a name for himself, ensuring the safety of his village. While on a journey, Suguna gave her life to save Yajirou's own. After the events in Volume 7 of the manga, Yajirou is said to have never lost a fight after that. He and [[Rushuna Tendo]] go on to get married.

He is also shown to be physically very strong by tossing and crushing boulders with his bare hands. He can also slice massive cannon shells in half. He belonged to a branch family of the Kojima clan. This clan was led by Midare Kojima and his sister, Suguna. Yajirou intended to go out and make a name for himself, ensuring the safety of his village.
