Kamikaze (神・風, Kami Kaze, "Divine Wind") is a Japanese manga series written and illustrated by Satoshi Shiki, published in Kodansha's Monthly Afternoon magazine from 1997 to 2003.
Five elemental warriors, the pure-blood members of the mystical tribes of the Matsurowanu Kegai no Tami (化外の民) stood before the beasts.
In present-day Japan, the cursed descendants turn their backs on the warriors of Earth and Water and seek the gates to the dimensional prison that hold the 88 Beasts.
The story follows Mikogami Misao, the "Maiden of Water", whose blood can unlock the prison that holds the fabled 88 Beasts, and Ishigami Kamuro, the Warrior of Earth.
But when Ishigami comes forward asking for her help to stop the resurrection of the 88 Beasts, for the first time Misao speaks up on her own, and this gives her new sense of confidence and inner strength that she had kept locked away in her for so long.
In addition, the "true" self, Misao the Girl of Water, seemed to have awakened as a result of the newfound strength, and she will not hesitate to unleash her fury upon those who crosses her.
