Ashitare is one of the Seiryuu Seven, sworn to protect the Priestess of Seiryuu from harm. Born as a werewolf with the ability to transform into a wolf, Ashitare was shunned and unwelcome in any place he visited, even his own home. As a result, he turned hardened and angry, and began to eat the flesh of humans after killing them. As one of the Seiryuu Seven, Ashitare was found by Nakago and taken into the group, where he could utilize his strength to the fullest.
After a failed attempt by Soi to kill Miaka and the Suzaku Seven, Ashitare is unleashed on them to block their attempts to find a way to summon Suzaku (by finding the Shinzaho, a relic of great power). Ashitare's brute strength are dominating and seemingly unstoppable. However, both times he tries to kill Miaka are unsuccessful because of Nuriko, one of the Suzaku Seven who manages to burn out one of his eyes and seriously wound him, nearly destroying his physical body. For his failures, he is whipped like an animal by Nakago, and in the end, Nakago is found to be merely manipulating Ashitare in order to use his great strength, as shown when Ashitare successfully steals the Shinzaho relic from the Suzaku Seven.
