Under that mask lies a man loyal to Aoshi Shinomori. Hannya was born in a poor village where children were killed because parents had little or no money to support them. Somehow, Hannya had escaped his village and was forced to live like a wild animal. He had been living all by himself until Aoshi had found Hannya and offered him a position at the Edo Castle and in the Oniwabanshu.

The face of Hannya is deformed; burnt skin and lips, no pupils, smashed cheekbones, and cut off ears and nose. All this just to make his job as a spy easier. Another part that's deformed is Hannya's arms. They are a bit longer than a normal person's, so he uses his flaw as a tool in combat. By wearing stripes on his arms, Hannya is able to make his opponents think that his arms can extend.

Hannya is perhaps the only person to acquire much of the kenpo skills taught by Aoshi. He can combine kenpo with the deadly metal claws he occassionaly wields. When the Meiji Era began, the Oniwabanshu, which was at one time very large, split up. Hannya was one of the four men to remained loyal to Aoshi. He had remained loyal to Aoshi from the beginning to the end when he sacrificed his life to save Aoshi and allow Kenshin the time needed to defeat Kanryu's gatling gun.
