Goiri

Goiri is a term that can refer to several distinct entities, the most prominent being a Japanese manga and anime series. The manga, titled "GoRi" (ゴリ), was created by Haruhiko Mikimoto and serialized in Kodansha's Weekly Shonen Magazine. It tells the story of a group of young individuals who stumble upon an ancient artifact that grants them extraordinary powers, leading them on a quest to protect the world from a growing evil. The anime adaptation, which premiered in the late 1990s, closely followed the manga's narrative and character development, gaining a moderate following.

Beyond the fictional work, "Goiri" can also be a surname of Japanese origin. While not as common as other Japanese surnames, it exists and is present within the population. Additionally, the term might appear in other contexts as a place name or a less common word in certain dialects, though these are less widely recognized. When encountering the term "Goiri," it is important to consider the context to understand which specific meaning is intended. The manga and anime series are the most likely reference point for a general audience.
