Katsuhito Masaki (柾木 勝仁)

Background

Tenchi Muyo! Ryo Ohki:
Katsuhito Masaki, also known as Yōshō Masaki Jurai, is the son of Emperor Azusa Jurai and his first wife Funaho. When Ryoko attacked Jurai on Kagato's orders, Yōshō fought her off. He chased Ryoko to Earth when she fled, eventually defeating her and sealing her within a cave outside the Masaki shrine. To protect the shrine's secret, he became a shinto priest. His half-sisters Ayeka (who also considered him to be her betrothed) and Sasami immediately set out after him, but failed to locate him for another 700 years. Despite this, Yōshō maintained contact with Jurai, eventually marrying Airi Masaki. Together, they had two daughters, Kiyone and Minaho Masaki. Katsuhito is also Tenchi and Tennyo's grandfather.

Tenchi Universe and movies 1 & 3:

Tenchi in Tokyo:
Katsuhito Masaki is a shinto priest with no special powers (surprise!). He had a daughter (name unknown) who married Nobuyuki. The daughter was the chosen guardian of the Earth; her necklace turned into a sword to help defend the planet. When she died, Tenchi became the new guardian of the Earth, although he didn't know it until Yugi started causing problems in Tokyo.

Named after AIC director Katsuhito Akiyama.
