Chiriko (張宿) is a character in the manga and anime series Fushigi Yūgi.

Chiriko is the youngest and the genius among the seven seishi. He is an extremely intelligent child who becomes attached to Tasuki, and likewise Tasuki becomes attached to him. When he first appears, it is revealed he was studying to take an exam to take a seat in the government. He and Chichiri are the two technical minds of the team, but Chiriko is ruled by his character: when it is not on his body, he is a rather average child with limited intelligence, which is a source of frustration for him. The youngest and weakest member of the group, it is unusual that he would gravitate towards someone like Tasuki; however, the reasoning behind it is that Tasuki always wanted a younger brother and is more than happy to fill the roll for Chiriko. His body was taken over by Seiryū Seishi Miboshi, but after regaining control, he stabs himself, taking Miboshi with him to his death.

[edit] Personality

Because he is so small for his age, he looks almost like a toddler. His incredibly high IQ gave him an interest in research at a very early age, and his experience of the world has mainly been through books and study. On the other hand, his intelligence is tied to the appearance of the Chinese character on his foot, and when it disappears, he is even less mentally adept than a normal child his age. (He also becomes something of a crybaby.) He is very sensitive about his height and his peculiar intelligence, and this had made him strive to grow up to be a "man of strength." He is a nice, quiet, good-student type.

In Fushigi Yugi Eikō Den, Chiriko is revived as a child of a politician. He is the only character to remember who he is, but has to fully revive quickly, otherwise, he will be a normal boy.
