Bang Shishigami

Bang Shishigami is a Ninja, and a playable character in Calamity Trigger and Continuum Shift.

Summary
After losing his home in the Ikaruga Civil War and his master Tenjo at the hands of Jin Kisaragi, Bang and his followers began living in Kagutsuchi waiting for the right moment to strike back at Jin and the NOL. There, he declares himself a hero of love and justice and dedicates himself to exterminating evil and overturning injustice wherever he goes. He is quite over-exuberant, prone to speeches and tangents as well as making dramatic entrances.

He has a romantic fascination with Litchi, always willing to go charging in headlong if he sees someone making her upset. He is overzealous in every way, subtlety not usually at the forefront of his mind, however his fiery spirit and will have earned him the respect of a few characters, most notably Hakumen. He also wants Ragna's bounty to rebuild the glory of Ikaruga.

In BlazBlue Continuum Shift, he goes on a mission to find his Master's Son. It is also rumored that there is an inactive, unknown Nox Nyctores within his possession. This is earlier stated by Rachel in Calamity Trigger.

In the console versions, when he uses his Fuu Rin Ka Zan move, its own theme song, "Omae no Tetsui ni Kugi wo Ute", sung by Hironobu Kageyama, will start playing. This song, along with his choice of clothing, movement and mannerisms, is derived as a parody of the "Tokusatsu Tokusatsu" hero concept, more specifically Kamen Rider.

Trivia

 * While almost everyone in the Blazblue universe (except Hakumen) treats him like a foolish joke, Bang is very popular amongst the players for his over the top mannerism, the same reason why he gets no respect in the universe.
 * Bang is the counterpart of Guilty Gear's Chipp Zanuff, being the respective ninjas who was over the top in their mannerisms. However, while being a ninja, Bang's status is atypical to most ninjas, instead of being overly speedy with high damage, he moves quickly but has fairly slow attacks.that deal mediocre damage.
 * Some of Bang's palate swaps are references to the following characters:
 * 1) Akuma (Street Fighter)
 * 2) Ryu (Street Fighter)
 * 3) Ken (Street Fighter)
 * 4) Dan Hibiki (Street Fighter)
 * 5) Super Saiyan Goku (DragonBall Z)
 * 6) Strider (Strider)
 * During his Astral Finish, for a second, there is an image which is a direct parody of an image from the popular Ninja-based anime, Naruto.
