Dokugakuji is a fictional character in the manga and anime Saiyuki, the bodyguard of Kougaiji. In the Saiyuki Reload and Reload Gunlock animes.

He is the older half-brother of Sha Gojyo, and was previously known as Sha Jien, and Gojyo has been searching for him for years. In the manga (original Saiyuki), the two first meet in book three. Unlike his brother, Dokugaku is a full youkai, the son of their father's legal wife (whereas Gojyo was the son of their father's human mistress). In the manga Sha Jien would often calm his mother's violent outbursts towards Gojyo by sleeping with her, acting as a replacement for his dead father. When his mother finally snapped and attempted to murder Gojyo Sha Jien killed her in order to save his brother.

Dokugakuji is now a loyal servant of the youkai prince Kougaiji, son of the Ox-Demon Gyumaoh whose revival the Sanzou Ikkou are trying to prevent. Dokugaku stumbled into Houtou castle one day roughly six years before the beginning of the manga, and was hired without question by the trusting prince. To quote the manga "I decided I owed you my all."

His weapon of choice is a sword which he summons in the same way Goku does his nyoi-bo, or Gojyo his shakujou. He usually fights Gojyo when the two groups meet.

Many years ago, humans and demons lived in harmony. But that unity ended when demons started attacking humans and plotted a mission to unleash Gyumao - an evil demon imprisoned for thousands of years. Now, Genjo Sanzo, a rogue priest, must team up with three demons - Sha Gojyo, Son Goku, and Cho Hakkai - and embark on a perilous journey to the west to stop these demons from resurrecting Gyumao and restore the balance between humans and demons on Earth.

Genjo is a Buddhist priest in the city of Shangri-La, which is being ravaged by yokai spirits that have fallen out of balance with the natural order. His superiors send him on a journey far to the west to discover why this is happening and how to stop it. His companions are three yokai with human souls. But this is no day trip—the four will encounter many discoveries and horrors on the way, and on the road, Genjo will wonder … can he really trust his supernatural companions?

Humans and yokai, science and magic... all exist side-by-side on a peaceful continent free of all order and regulation, widely known as "Shangri-La." The balance there was shattered when the Minus Wave caused all the yokai on the continent to rampage, an event known as the "Calamity." Continuing their journey west to stop Gyumaoh's resurrection experiments, the root of all the evil on the continent, the Three Aspects are finally drawing closer to India. But the closer they get, the more pronounced the influence of the Calamity becomes, and the more intense their battles become.

The fearsome foursome continue their journey west towards Shangri-La, encountering new challenges and new adventures along the way. Their legend precedes them, but not always in the way one might expect. The Minus Wave that apparently drove all the youkai in the land mad looks like it might have missed one, as Sanzo, Gojyo, Hakkai and Goku meet a lone guardian and the band of children he cares for. Fear and misunderstanding run throughout this particular leg of the journey, including between the members of the Sanzo group!
