Genjuro Kibagami (牙神 幻十郎, Kibagami Genjūrō) is a recurring Samurai Shodown character who debuted in Samurai Shodown II. He replaces Ukyo Tachibana's role as Haohmaru's official rival in the series. Despite popular belief, he has no relation to Iori Yagami.
Genjuro's design is centered on the scar on his back. Developers wanted to make him a character with "adult appeal" who would leave a lasting impression for the female players. In Gamest's 1997 Heroes Collection, he was ranked the staff's eighteenth favorite character and was the number one favorite character (from the development team and fans) at the time of his debut. He was the character inspiration for the younger design of Shishio Makoto from the Rurouni Kenshin series.
