Yagura Karatachi (枸橘やぐら, Karatachi Yagura) was the jinchūriki of the Three-Tails, Isobu after Rin Nohara and the Fourth Mizukage (四代目水影, Yondaime Mizukage.
He is voiced by Miyu Irino in Japanese and by Johnny Yong Bosch (who also voiced Sasori, Izaya Orihara from Durarara, Zangetsu from Bleach and Izuru Kamukura from Danganronpa) in English up until Episode 430 of Shippuden, when Nicolas Roye started voicing him.
Personality[]
Yagura is very formal, outspoken and composed in an diplomatic manner when he welcomed Naruto on behalf of all the tailed beasts. He does have a defensive side as seen by his outburst at Naruto Uzumaki for thinking he was weaker and younger than him.
However, when he was placed under Tobi aka "Madara's" genjutsu, he became a tyrant who committed various crimes such as creating the Blood Mist Village. It was also known that his mandate exploited the poor and dissent was not allowed.
History[]
Yagura bloodsthirsty regime
Yagura was being manipulated
During his time as Mizukage, the village was known as the "Village of the Bloody Mist" (血霧の里, Chigiri no Sato), mostly because of the barbaric ritual where Academy students kill one another in order to graduate. This practice was discontinued when an entire graduating batch of Academy students were massacred by a young Zabuza Momochi. It is likely that Yagura was the Mizukage whom Zabuza tried to assassinate when he revolted. Yagura was also known to dispatch Kiri-nin who were suspected of being disloyal to the village immediately (commending and taking Kisame Hoshigaki as his direct subordinate after assassinating Fuguki Suikazan, a traitorous member of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist). Yet despite the terror of his reign, he appeared to be kind. Apparently the people of Kiri feared that Yagura was being manipulated, a fear which was confirmed by Ao, who saw through an unnamed genjutsu with his Byakugan, later identified by Kisame Hoshigaki as the work of Tobi.
