The Iga Clan is an ancient ninja dog clan led by Akame. In Ginga Nagareboshi Gin, the Iga Clan is in the midst of an intense fued with the Koga Clan led by Kurojaki, who is also the father of Tesshin. When Ben's platoon arrives in Iga territory, the Koga dogs trick the Igas into thinking that Ben and the others are Kogas. This causes the Igas to attack Ben's platoon where they kidnap Smith and lure the others to their base where they are poisoned by Akame. Akame soon realizes that he accidently hurt the wrong people and he and the other Igas cure them even though Ben is left with damaged eyesight. After the battle with the Koga Clan, Akame and several other Igas accompany Ben and the others and the rest of the Iga Clan are not seen again.
