Kantarou Ichinomiya

Driven by a deep empathy for the supernatural, this brilliant young folklorist serves as a part-time exorcist with the unique power to perceive youkai. Though often labeled a cunning tactician for his manipulative and predictive intellect, he possesses a kind heart that seeks peaceful resolutions rather than violence. While he prefers reasoning with spirits over destroying them, his compassionate approach frequently draws criticism from allies like Haruka and Sugino, who fear his mercy puts him in danger.
