Shirogane

Clad in a signature top hat and black coat, this enigmatic figure thrusts Akira into the escalating conflict between the human and shadow realms. While he initially presents a calm, smiling exterior, his true nature is far more aggressive and sharp-tongued. Utilizing a cane infused with spiritual energy to repel Kokuchi, his combat style even shifts to a deadly katana in the manga. Though his bond with Akira hints at a potential romance in the anime, his motives remain shrouded in mystery.
