Gedoumaru (外道丸) is a Shikigami of the Ketsuno Clan. She was given to Sakata Gintoki of the Yorozuya as a precaution, during the Exorcist Chapter, by Ketsuno Ana, who had requested the Yorozuya's assistance.

Appearance[]

She has straight, black hair and dark red eyes. On the top of her head, she has two small, yellow horns. Her usual attire consists of a black robe. She wields a giant, fortified club which she carries with ease.

Personality[]

Despite her innocent and cute looks, she is extremely strong and cruel. Gedoumaru will do anything to beat her opponent, as seen in Episode 195 when she tricked the other Shikigami into thinking her mother had just died, when it was all just an act to get them to lower their guard. If her master shows any sign of weaknesses, she will turn on him. She is loyal only to Ketsuno Ana. She also seems to respect Sakata Gintoki to some extent.

Relationships[]

Sakata Gintoki: From a rough start to a respected comrade, Gedoumaru threatened Gin on how she dislikes weak masters. Over time, Gedoumaru develops trust and respect for Gin. She also admires how Gin does not fear demons in Episode 249.


Skills[]

Combat: She has been shown to be skilled in combat. In Episode 195, she wipes out 4 surrounding shikigamis that are 10 times her size and in episode 249, she wipes out many demons/shikigami who surrounded her in an instant.

Diviner Arc[]

Episode 249

In Episode 249 She and the odd jobs crew went to the demon world in order to find a present for Ketsuno Ana. Gin got her a present but the demons refused to serve humans and surrounded the odd jobs crew. Gedoumaru slaughtered many of them in an instant. She then took Gins advice to buy something for herself.

Silver Soul Arc[]

Gedoumaru goes back to help the Yorozuya alongside Ketsuno Ana, Ketsuno Seimei, Shirino Douman and other diviners. Gedoumaru leads the Shikigami troop to fight the Amanto while the diviners scare them away using illusions.

After the first encounter, Gedoumaru helps Otae to take care of the injured people as well as bringing in nutritious food (Pandemonium) to those in need.

Etymology[]
