Information: Miroku is a fellow who has earned where he is now... by cheating, lying, and stealing. His trick is to lure folks into believing that a dark spirit is stalking them, and then "helping" them out while getting to spend the night and eat a hearty supper. The next day he finds another poor sucker to set up and he leaches from them for a night or two, and so on.

He comes into contact with Inu-Yasha and Kagome early on and Kagome senses shards of the Shikon Jewel and the fight is on. During the battle, Miroku unleashes his trump card, and his curse. His great grandfather was cursed to have a black hole in his hand, called the Windtunnel, which sucks up anything in it's path. Miroku inherited that curse. He unleashes it, nearly taking in Inu-Yasha, but he closes it when Kagome jumps in the way as he didn't want to kill her.

He joins the quest for shards of the Shikon afterwards. Miroku becomes even more involved in the quest for the Shikon Jewel when he learns that Naraku had been the one who had stolen the jewel. Naraku had also been the demon who had cursed his grandfather (and now him) with the Windtunnel [Kazaana]. Now he has to take care of his own Windtunnel in order to prolong his life.

The Windtunnel is normally sealed by prayer beads wrapped around his hand. It will slowly grow over time and can be aggravated if treated badly. Unless Naraku is defeated and the curse lifted, the Windtunnel will eventually grow beyond his hand and become uncontrollable, engulfing Miroku himself before disappearing. That had been the fate of his father and grandfather.

Miroku introduces Inu-Yasha and company to his friend, the raccoon demon Hachi.

Name Meaning: Miroku's name is Japanese for "Maitreya" and in Buddhism, Maitreya is the promised messiah who is supposed to come back to earth and set everything right (Miroku's doin' a mighty good job isn't he?)

Kit's Comment: Miroku's not the most popular bishounen but he IS a bishounen, a perverted one too ^^

2005-04-10 [saneladynacho]: ~*swoons*~ Anybody seen the episode "Miroku's Dangerous Confession" Don't you love how telling all the titles are on these things? Anyway, LOVE IT! You think she's getting the "just friends speech" and then he ACTUALLY says something right for a change! well, sort of: Miroku: When the battle with Naraku is over, and my curse is gone, and I'm alive...At that time, would you live with me and bear my children? Sango: I . . . I will. Miroku: You'll bear them, 10 or even 20?! Sango seems to get increasingly mad after this episode whenever he hits on anyone else. He he he. "HOUSHI-SAMA!!!!" And the flames of hell surround her in the background. he he he.

2005-04-10 [Katisama]: *laughs* no i hadn't seen that episode but that sounds halarious!!!! XD

2005-04-10 [kitoky]: Hahaha! What episode is THAT?!

2005-04-11 [saneladynacho]: mmmmm . . . "Miroku's Dangerous Confession" 132 in season 6 I think.

2005-04-11 [saneladynacho]: Just wanted to add that Miroku is one of the most beautiful animated men of all time . . . ranking up there with aladdin . . . ~*grins madly*~

2005-04-11 [saneladynacho]: do we want a banner?

2005-04-11 [kitoky]: A banner for what? Blah 132.....too many episodes...

2005-04-12 [saneladynacho]: for this wiki . . . can't see how it would hurt

2005-04-12 [saneladynacho]: oh, and clearly not too many episodes . . . i'm 12 from the end and it's KILLING me. Oh, and it's looking like i can't put banners up because the page is password protected . . . darn people trying to keep their wiki's stable. ~*scowls*~ And i like my banner!

2005-04-12 [kitoky]: A banner for this page for Miroku? I'm the owner of this string of wikis so I'm sorry, but I really don't want anyone to erase the work I put into this

2005-04-12 [saneladynacho]: That's fine, I completely understand, it makes perfect sense . . . . but i did make a banner and I have it on my profile . . . is that okay?

2005-04-12 [kitoky]: Do you want me to post it up?

2005-04-12 [Katisama]: wow, a banner just for Miroku's page 0.0 i bet he'd like that xP

2005-04-12 [jLoBuTt]: miroku is cool

2005-04-13 [Katisama]: yea he be funny^^

2005-04-13 [kitoky]: lol - Miroku's already very perverted and highly XD Having a banner just for him is awesome-eth.

2005-04-16 [saneladynacho]: so i watched up to the last five episodes, and you'd be shocked at the guy, he's actually behaved himself. Hands on the shoulders for once. It's crazy. But then again . . . . there was an episode where a girl's family was trying to get him to marry their daughter since he did promise . . . and then the girl said that um, she had . . . mm . . . "bound" herself to miroku. OOOhhhh, Sango was not a happy camper. it was HILARIOUS.
