YVS

YVS (ヤービス, Yābisu) (フラ・ヤービス, Fura Yabisu) is a fictional character in the manga series Shaman King Flowers. He is the seventh Shaman King.

Appearance
In his compact spirit form, YVS takes on the form of a golden pyramid with two arms, two legs, and a single, green eye. His true form consists of a hunch-backed humanoid with a white cloak and a horned mask. He appears to wield a scepter with a pyramid resembling his other form at the top.

Personality
As the Seventh Shaman King from 500 years ago, he is said to hate Asakura Hao the most out of all of the G8. He also believes that the world he has created is already a utopia and is determined to maintain the status quo at any cost. Apparently, he doesn't like crowds as seen when he refused to go down into a mall.

Past
500 years ago, YVS had participated and ultimately won the Shaman Fight and was crowned the Shaman King. Sometime after becoming the Shaman King, he would be responsible for creating the capitalist society that exists during the present time.

Flowers
YVS first appears together with Kamogawa Yosuke observing the fight between Amidamaru and Oboro Daikyoh. Yosuke praises Amidamaru's abilities though YVS calls him a "worthless scum". When they later learn that they are going to a mall, YVS refuses to go himself as he does not like crowds. After Yosuke acknowledges what YVS had done for him, he promises to participate in the Flower of Maize on his behalf and eliminate any strong rivals in Japan, before it begins.

He is later seen with Yosuke in the Asura realm as the latter teams up with the spirits of the American Navy from WWII to prevent Hana from coming back to life.

As Hao and Yoh's duplicate discuss recent events and Hao's determination to win the Flower of Maize and change the world, YVS suddenly appears and states his determination to defend his work at all costs.

Anime/Manga Difference
YVS originally debuted in Takei's Yahabe, which was both a manga oneshot and an anime OVA.
