Hao's followers

Hao's followers are fictional characters who follow Hao Asakura from the Japanese manga series Shaman King.

In the anime, they are featured as the most prominent members and the most powerful in the group, though in the manga, they are only one of several powerful teams that follow Hao. They are later killed in by Peyote when he rebels against Hao. Their souls then attempt to beg Hao for help, but he only attempts to devour their souls to gain Reiroku. However this fails, and Anna saves and revives them, causing the Hana-gumi to respect Anna while their savior decides to force them to become maids at her Funbari Onsen resort.
