Quentin Tarantino certainly knows how to create deranged characters: from Mr. Blonde to Stuntman Mike and everyone in between, these larger than life creations are what have us clamouring for more from the Tarantinoverse. If anyone stands out from the parade of colourful creations though, it's Gogo Yubari: dressed up in a schoolgirl outfit and with a penchant for violent murder, she is definitely a force to be reckoned with. To be the main bodyguard of O-Ren Ishii you have to have something about you, and Gogo is more than up to the challenge, bringing a mace/saw and a heaped serving of ice cold insanity as part of her arsenal. She's a remorseless killer who is fiercely loyal to the last and certainly the biggest challenge Beatrix 'Black Mamba' Kiddo faces in Volume I. The character is a love letter from Tarantino to the more bizarre aspects of the martial arts genre and she certainly delivers, thanks mostly to her bloody and viscerally affecting fight with the Bride.
