Quotes

ou were too greedy, Bankotsu. Your bare hands were strong enough.

I’ll show you what’s different between us. (…) The difference is I would never betray my buddies.

You’re greedy for life. Inuyasha, you are no different from me. There’s that priestess, and you… You guys are around because of your desire to live. We’re not the only evil ones here. Why do you just point fingers at us?

Alright! Suikotsu and Jakotsu, you guys go finish off that guy called Sesshomaru.

Ehhhh?!

Not satisfied? I thought you’d like any guy.

Inuyasha is the only one I like!

It’s definitely an unrequited love. Give it up. I’ll take care of Inuyasha.

I’m not Bankotsu for nothing. I didn’t become the leader of the Shichinintai just for fun! Even before I was revived by the Sacred Jewel fragments, I controlled that group of murderers, with my own capability!!
