Ashil

Ashil (アシル, Ashiru, Basil in the English Anime) is a fictional character in the anime series of Shaman King. He is a follower of Hao who took Boris' role of being the first on screen victim of the Archangels. He defied Hao by trying to "accidentally" kill Yoh when he was ordered to have Yoh live. He is killed by the X-Laws.

Appearance
He looks to be the same age as Yoh and most of the other main characters. He has brown hair in a pageboy style and grey eyes. His outfit seems to be based on that of Spanish nobles, and consists of a black coat with gold lining and white cuffs, a black vest, a white dress shirt, a red sash around his waist, black pants, and black shoes.

Personality
Ashil was rather cocky, believing it would be easy to kill Yoh and his friends because of his easily regenerating spirit. He was also revealed as having deep feelings for Hao and is jealous of Hao's interest in Yoh, allowing his deeper feelings to overpower his loyalty.

Travel through America
"Hao...sama''" -Ashil's last worlds

Ashil accompanies Asakura Hao as he travels through America and at one point, complains about Hao's interest in Yoh and how it is keeping them from going straight to Patch Village. Hao then sends Ashil and "Big Guy" Bill Burton to get rid of Yoh's friends. While Bill keeps Yoh out of the fight, Ashil uses Siegfried to easily take on Tao Ren, Horohoro, Lyserg Diethel, and "Wooden Sword" Ryu. However when Yoh fights past Bill's spirits, Ashil eagerly attempts to destroy him as well. However the X-Laws appear out of no where and Marco Lasso kills him with his Archangel, Michael.

Anime/Manga Difference
Ashil is an anime only character. Also in the anime, it is Ashil who reveals to Yoh and the others that Hao is his descendent, instead of Mohamed Tabarsi.
