Hyakka

This article is a stub. You can help Gintama Wiki by expanding it.

Hyakka (百華) is Yoshiwara's all-female law enforcement squad formerly deployed by Housen. Its original leader was Jiraia, succeeded by his student, Tsukuyo, who still remains on the post.

Appearance[]

While not having a uniform, all members wear similar kimonos with varying designs and obi. They also sport the same shimada hairstyle as any other courtesan in Yoshiwara. With some exceptions, the Hyakka have scars on their faces which are normally hidden behind masks.

Background[]

The Hyakka was originally created by Jiraia who trained Tsukuyo to be his successor after he faked his death.

Many of the members of the Hyakka are former courtesans who were disobedient or no longer considered desirable that Tsukuyo was ordered to assassinate. Instead she faked the women's deaths and absorbed them into the Hyakka, having them scar their faces to "give up on being a woman".

Story[]

Yoshiwara in Flames Arc[]

The Hyakka, along with Tsukuyo first appear when they intercept Seita and the Yorozuya. They soon leave after Tsukuyo seemingly kills the intruders. They quickly discover their Leader's betrayal and intercept her and the Yorozuya as they try to reach Housen. They cannot bring themselves to kill Tsukuyo, who refuses to fight back, as many of them owe their lives to her. Later, some assist Gintoki in fighting Housen, to little result, while others help Hinowa and Seita escape. They are stopped by the Hyakka who are still loyal to the Night King.

Red Spider Arc[]

Later, when Jiraia attempts to burn Yoshiwara down, the Hyakka and residents of the city prevent the fire from spreading.

Scandal Arc[]

The Hyakka play along with the ruse of Tsukuyo having slept with Gintoki and follow her as she demands payment form him while dressed as an oiran.

Host Club Arc[]

Tsukuyo bringa the Hyakka to Takamagahara on Gintoki's invitation.

Kintama Arc[]

The Hyakka are deployed to find Gintoki. When they try to attack him Tsukuyo is almost hit by a kunai causing Gintoki to take the hit to protect her.

Dekoboko Arc[]

The members of the Hyakka are transformed into men and round up the members of the Dekoboko cult while the main cast is freaking out about becoming women.
