Yusuke appears and prepares to use his Spirit Gun. He summons another, smaller demon and then tosses it into the lake to be devoured with the purpose of taunting Yusuke about his impending, gruesome fate. Rando decides to show off another technique which involves summoning and controlling creatures known as Hate Fish from the depths of the Spirit World, which he summons into the lake below where Yusuke is hanging. He then uses the Life-Force Thread technique to subdue Yusuke and swings him wildly around the forest before hanging Yusuke above a lake. Completely drained from his fight against Rando's human form, Yusuke's attacks do not harm Rando at all and only results in Rando taunting Yusuke about how it will give him time to decide what technique with which to torture his opponent. Rando then reveals his true form and battles Yusuke once more. Yusuke believes he had won the fight and walks over to Genkai to gloat, only for her to inform him that a demon like Rando would not be defeated so easily. However, to everyone's surprise, Yusuke was able to endure Shorin's painful attacks without passing out and renders Shorin unconscious with a counterattack. Shorin unveils another technique during this battle that involves violently draining the blood out of Yusuke's wounds, once again revealing Shorin's sadistic nature. After Kuwabara's defeat, Yusuke steps up as Shorin's final opponent and an intense battle ensues. However, Shorin then used the Shrinking Curse technique to shrink Kuwabara down to the size of a doll, where he sadistically taunts Kuwabara before breaking his arms, legs, and rib cage, much to Yusuke's fury and Genkai's disgust. During the match, Kuwabara initially seems to have the upper hand, using his Spirit Sword to deflect Shorin's Spirit Energy fireballs onto Shorin. As he reached the finals, he was paired against Kuwabara. During the quarter finals he fights Chinpo and wins, although he suffered some injuries. He originally joined the Genkai Tournament under the disguise of Shorin. It is also possible that it was this event that resulted in him becoming far more careful with his identity and staying in the shadows so he wouldn't be put into another life and death situation again. Though this means she was the only other person prior to see his true form and survive to tell about it. During this large span of time, he at some point fought Genkai and somehow managed to escape. He would additionally experiment with these techniques on humans to gain a greater understanding of the soul and the secrets behind it. Not much is known about Rando's backstory prior to his first appearance aside from the fact that he was responsible for the deaths of many humans and actively hunted psychics and martial artists for hundreds of years. While fighting Yusuke, it is revealed that Rando is a sadist when he says that he tested each of the techniques that he stole from the psychics (fighters) on them, and did so because he wanted them to experience fear. He steals techniques from those who have mastered them, and kills the victims after he masters them himself. This amalgamates into his true persona, Rando, a demon only concerned with power. As the Genkai Tournament progresses, however, his extremely sadistic nature begins to emerge. Shorin initially seemed to be a somewhat innocent young man. He also bears blue tribal markings on his face that resemble a spider. His skin is chalk-white and he has an odd-looking scar on his chest that appears to spread across his torso. However, in his true form, Rando's hair is a long, bright cherry red color, similar to Kurama's in his human form. This likely contributed to Shorin's relatively plain looks, and unassuming attire. It is assumed that Rando took the form of Shorin in order to remain inconspicuous when he wasn't hunting his human prey. Apparently, the concept art for this form was a reference to the Shaolin monks, famous for indoctrinating disciples at very young ages. Shorin has dark eyes and eyebrows coupled with an innocent, almost doll-like appearance. When disguised as Shorin, his appearance is akin to that of a small child with a shaved head, who wears a black cap, blue Buddhist monk attire, and a simple necklace.
