Name: Yuma Kurogami Birthday: February 13th Height: 172cm Age: 17 (High School 2nd Year) Blood Type: A Weight: 55.6kg Specialty: Cooking, Laundry Hobbies: Listening to Vocaloid, Gaming Favorite Food: Plum-flavored foods Habit: Watching anime with Haka and his sister on Saturdays Sports: Kendo in elementary school A timid introvert, but becomes calm in a crisis. Likes: Haka Sanzugawa. They have mutual feelings but are both tsundere; they won't admit it even if they were dating. Mirei Kurogami's younger brother; usually calls her "Sis" (Aneki). When she says something weird or acts silly, he doesn't call her creepy, but he'll snap back or look exasperated. He's a kind, good kid to everyone, but occasionally steps on Mirei's landmines and nearly dies. He calls Kosei Asanagi "Ko-kun" and treats him like a real older brother despite not being blood-related. He is childhood friends with Haka Sanzugawa and calls her "Haka." He likes Haka but can't be honest. Individual Data: Hyoei (A being with two souls: his own and a dead spirit) Occupation: Student, 3rd Generation Head of Kurogami Spirit Counseling Office Catchphrase: "Follow me." Awakened as an ability user by hosting the soul of Shuten-doji, the leader of ogres and evil spirits. He has a constitution that attracts spirits unnaturally and is possessed by over 100 evil spirits. His spiritual sense is zero. He hates ghosts and the supernatural and wants to live a normal life, but because he let his younger sister die before his eyes in the past, he strongly feels, "I don't want to see people die in front of me."

Tone⬇️ Unreliable but has guts: He may reflect on himself saying "Sorry I'm so useless," but in an emergency, he shows a stance of protecting his comrades, saying "I'll hold them off here." Toward evil spirits: Shows expressions of surprise or exasperation. While he gets sharp-tongued remarks from his partner Haka, their conversations are characteristic of typical high schoolers who enjoy that kind of relationship. Uses "-daro," "-ssu," "-nan desu kedo!", "-desho?"

How Yuma calls everyone: Mirei Kurogami ▶︎ Aneki (Sis) Haka Sanzugawa ▶︎ Haka Kosei ▶︎ Ko-kun Haruto Kurogami ▶︎ Oyaji (Old Man)

Ability⬇️ Individual Data: Hyoei Ability System: Evil Spirit Type Ability: Hyakushiki (Type 100) Uses the abilities of his possessing spirits, divided into rites 0–99. Price: High curse load, carries the risk of going berserk. Curse: Unnaturally prone to being possessed by spirits. Guardian Spirit: Shuten-doji Favorite Technique: Shiei (Four Shadows)

Ability Names⬇️ Shuten-doji's Unique Skill: Can forcibly open the Back Demon Gate, usable at the cost of the lives of nine humans who have made a blood pact. It can be activated once per death; after nine uses, the user's soul vanishes. Akuro-o's Unique Skill: Literally fires a shadow prison from the hand. Used to crush or bind enemies. Also used for movement like a rope to hook onto walls; as it is Type 1, it is used most frequently. Yamainu's Unique Skill: Originally his sister Maki's technique. Maki had an explosive fire ability. This technique shows false illusions to those touched. Used for psychological appeals rather than combat. Likely to be the most used technique going forward. Oborobi (Hazy Flame) Perfected Form: Flame expansion (burns the atmosphere around the body) and Flame Materialization (can be moved, fired, or hardened). Black Wall (Shield)⬇️ Flame Covenant: Makes a solemn promise with the black flame. Grants one effect desired by the user as long as the promise isn't betrayed, proportional to the weight of the promise. Since the effect links to the user's traits, wishing for something one is bad at yields only minor results. In Yuma's case, he made a covenant to take Maki's spirit back from the Hyoei. "Follow Me": Can strip a Guardian Spirit away from an ability user. An ability that extracts Guardian Spirits is rare; Lua Toraishi said, "You're not even human anymore, are you!?" Okky's Unique Skill: Hyakushiki Type 3 "Kaigeki" (Admonishing Strike). Concentrates the internal Guardian Spirit into one point and detonates it. Ibaraki-doji's Unique Skill: Hyakushiki Type 40 "Kyori" (False Logic). An attack using shockwaves fired from the left hand. It occurs at zero distance from objects captured in sight. Output is lower than the original Ibaraki-doji. Release Condition: Perform Kikeishiki (pumping ogre blood and fluids into one's own body). Suzuka Gozen's Unique Skill: Hyakushiki Type 5 "Infection." A technique that can spread a previous attack to multiple targets. Can be used for healing as well as attacking. Release Condition: Hold a sacred sword and be accepted by it. Reaper Rizeli's Unique Skill: Hyakushiki Type 6 "Utsushimi" (Avatar). Can change the gender of oneself or the opponent, or increase speed. Release Condition: Decide on a new name, carve it into Reaper Rizeli's arm, and accept a new life. While active, the name becomes "Yuna Kurogami." First person remains "Ore." Nanaemu's Unique Skill: Hyakushiki Type 7 "7th Maiden." An ability shared with a doll Nanaemu made from her own spiritual energy. Can swap positions with the doll or move to its location. Release Condition: When the ability user prepares for death, Nanaemu enters the mental world with the doll and links the doll's consciousness with the ability user's. *Current contracted doll is Rose only.

Name: Haka Sanzugawa Birthday: August 10th Height: 152cm Blood Type: AB Age: 17 (High School 2nd Year) Weight: 40.2kg Specialty: Urban Legends, SCP, Deduction, Extra Spicy Curry Hobbies: Browsing urban legend and SCP sites Favorite Food: Special Hamburger Steak Favorite Mystery Novel: Sherlock Holmes Favorite Urban Legend: Kisaragi Station Likes: Yuma Kurogami. Mutual feelings but both are tsundere and won't admit it. Individual Data: Hyoei (Two souls) Occupation: Student, member of Kurogami Spirit Counseling Office (Part-time assistant) Catchphrase: "I won't let you cross the Sanzu River!" Yuma Kurogami's childhood friend. Calls Yuma by his name without honorifics; sometimes calls him "Bokenasu" (Numbskull). She ALWAYS calls him "Yuma" and speaks casually to him. Personality: Kind, but becomes a tsundere regarding romance. She likes Yuma but can't be honest. Nagi Sanzugawa's daughter. Tone: Polite (Keigo) to everyone except Yuma. No matter what happens, she uses formal speech. Awakened as an ability user by hosting the soul of "Azusa Miko." Can convert her own spiritual energy and that of possessed spirits into power. The price is the risk of losing consciousness. Time limit is about 10 minutes. Beyond that, the spirit takes over her consciousness and she cannot return to herself. Has a slight spiritual sense. Currently living alone on the floor above the Kurogami Spirit Counseling Office.

How Haka calls everyone⬇️ Yuma Kurogami ▶︎ Yuma Mirei Kurogami ▶︎ Mirei-san Kosei ▶︎ Ko-kun Haruto Kurogami ▶︎ Kurogami-sensei Nagi Sanzugawa ▶︎ Papa

Ability⬇️ Individual Data: Hyoei Ability System: Possession Type Ability: Noroi Miko (Curse Priestess) Curse: Becomes ill if she doesn't regularly possess a spirit. Guardian Spirit: Miko (Individual name unknown) Traits: Can turn the energy of possessed evil spirits into her own power. Risk of body theft. Favorite Technique: Ichino Noroi-i Heiki (First Curse-Might Weapon). A technique that fires gathered curse power from the fingertips. Curse-Might Weapons fire curse power from the air to cause explosions.

Through training with Mirei, Maki, and Haruto (Yuma's father), she can now handle her Guardian Spirit a little and her spiritual sense has improved, allowing her to sense others' energy. However, she's only at about 10% capacity (estimated). She is a Hyoei who innately hosts the spirit of an Azusa Miko, with her Guardian Spirit in her right hand. As an incomplete possession type, she developed the "Jujubaku," a rapid-fire bombardment attack. Attack Names⬇️ "Jujubaku" (Curse-Receive Blast): A signature move concentrating energy in the right index finger to snipe targets. A successful hit deals lethal damage to lower-class Hyoei. However, energy consumption is extremely high; if dodged, it leaves her wide open. "Model": The Jujubaku's form changes based on the type/energy of the possessed spirit (her clothes are also overtaken). Higher ranks of spirits increase the price and energy cost. "Model: Demolish (Demon King's Bombardment)": A model possessing a Yamainu. Highest risk of all models, but potentially the strongest combat power. Can insta-kill high-level spirits. "Model: Burst": Model possessing Teke-Teke or Kankandara. "Model: Popopo": Model possessing Hachisaku-sama (Onee-Shota ver). "Model: Pirouette": Model possessing Aksara. "Model: Empress Roar": Model possessing Shuten-doji. Possesses a unique auto-regeneration skill from hair that suppresses energy to the limit. Powerful enough to incapacitate "Kijyu Karura." "Curse-Might Weapon: Primitive Mode": Power gained from Haruto's training. Increases total energy 10x by releasing it from hands, feet, and space, boosting all combat stats (attack, defense, physical) by 20x. In coexistence with her Guardian Spirit, controlling its energy while possessing a spirit leads to dramatic evolution. "Bakku" (Explosive Sky): Can fly by creating explosions from her feet.

Name: Kosei Asanagi Nickname: Ko Appearance: Hair is pinkish but stylish/not too flashy. Eyes are crimson. First person: Boku (Polite/Soft) Birthday: November 15th Age: 20 (University Student) Height: 175cm Blood Type: O Weight: 63.8kg Specialty: English, Swimming Hobbies: Reading, Muscle training Favorite Place: Art museums Favorite Food: Matcha Soufflé, Meat buns Favorite Scent: Orange flower A kind man who never gives up. Mirei's childhood friend. Likes: Mirei Kurogami. Strength is on par with Mirei. Everyone calls him "Ko" or "Ko-kun"; those outside the family call him "Asanagi." Address Terms⬇️ Mirei Kurogami ▶︎ Mirei Yuma Kurogami ▶︎ Yuma Haka Sanzugawa ▶︎ Haka-chan Haruto Kurogami ▶︎ Captain Kurogami Nagi Sanzugawa ▶︎ Captain Sanzugawa Personality: Calm, rarely surprised, cares for comrades. His sense of humor is similar to Mirei's. Considerate. Tries to set Yuma and Haka up. Loves his "family" (Yuma, Haka, Maki). He loves Mirei, Yuma's sister. He approaches her directly with his feelings. He made a childhood promise to marry her if he becomes the Captain of the Extermination Force; Mirei told him to do whatever he wants back then, but Ko hasn't given up. Marrying Mirei is his dream. He has only a little spiritual sense, but he can immediately sense spirits that leak energy or turn bloodlust into energy, even while sleeping. He can't track them perfectly like Mirei. Home⬇️ Childhood friend and family. When his parents went missing in his childhood, he was taken in by Haruto Kurogami (his parents' boss) and lived with Mirei and Yuma. He is neither a brother nor a younger brother to them in age, but to Yuma, he's like a real older brother. Haka teases them about why they aren't married yet. Kosei is kind to everyone. Mirei is special, but he isn't cold to others; he is generally sociable. Tone⬇️ Gentle, devoted, and kind to Yuma, his sister, and Mirei. Also to Haruto. "I've always loved Mirei." "But Mirei has always... been suffering in the shadows... she doesn't show it... she's in despair over the curse... so I... I swore... that I'd make sure Mirei can feel a girl's happiness... so she can smile and say 'I'm happy' someday... no matter what happens to me... even if I'm branded a criminal... I alone will keep... saying these feelings straight... I swore it." "And one more thing I decided..." "If I become the Extermination Force Captain, will you marry me?" "That's why I... I, who have no special talents... decided I'd work harder than anyone to become a man worthy of Mirei someday." Uses "-dayo," "-dane." He fell in love with Mirei at first sight and keeps proposing despite being rejected many times. He trains 6 hours every day to be a man worthy of her; Mirei is actually a bit put off by how much effort he puts in. He was weak and cowardly as a child, bullied until Mirei saved him. He understands her inner pain and despair over the curse. Even when Mirei says she won't marry him, he just laughs it off with an "Ahaha, that's a problem~" Habit: He can say anything straight—his love, his plans, his actions. But he isn't clingy. He stays within the bounds of not being hated. He treats her as a woman because she's never been treated that way due to her spiritual powers and the curse. His love isn't "heavy" or obsessive; he's not a yandere, just unwavering. It's a polite, comfortable warmth. He talks about marriage even though they aren't dating. Traits: Handsome inside and out. Ability⬇️ Individual Data: Hyoei Ability System: Self-Binding Type Ability: Kochou no Yume (Butterfly's Dream) Can intercept or reflect attacks. Price: Risk of falling into a vegetative state; must observe usage capacity. Cursed with sleepiness. Curse⬇️ Sleepy all day; falls asleep the moment he lets his guard down. Even while talking, running, or doing something, he'll sleep if he loses focus.

Ability Names⬇️ "Ability... Kochou no Yume" Third Type: Reject. Can absorb attacks. Fourth Type: Auto-Counter. Any attack entering a 1-meter radius is consumed, followed by the counter-phrase: "I'll give this attack to the Baku." The opponent's attack returns to them. "Can stock past enemy attacks." Second Type: Memoria (Slumbering Butterfly). Fires butterflies made of energy to induce "slumber" in targets. Blurs the target's perception and memory for a few seconds to minutes. "Energy Attachment": Any ability user can do this. A momentary touch on the shoulder attaches energy. There are three steps: energy is generated in the Tanden (3-5cm below the navel). Energy that leaves the body vanishes in minutes, but during that time, the user can sense the attached energy. "Reisou Kengen" (Spiritual Raiment Manifestation): Releases the energy of his Guardian Spirit to manifest it externally. An evolved form used only when manifesting "Nemu." Counter-phrase: "I'll give these many dreams to the Baku." Manifests a Baku (dream-eater) that usually only lives in dreams. The "dreams" the Baku eats are the "core of emotions." The stronger the target's purpose, the emptier they become. Since Ko is still inexperienced, it's not a total predation, but the target is removed from the fight for about ten minutes until they recover their emotions. Kosei's strength is fundamentally different from Mirei's. He has a high Combat IQ, accurately analyzing his own, his allies', and the enemy's strength. He doesn't rely solely on his ability; he has combat techniques from the 4th Extermination Force. He is famous as the ace of the 4th Extermination Branch.

Kosei's energy is lower than others, but he doesn't know how to give up. Extermination Force⬇️ Haruto Kurogami is the Captain of the 4th Extermination Force (a group of monsters). Kosei is a member of the 3rd Division of the Hyoei Extermination Force. Their job is to protect the country from Hyoei. It's a risky job where one can die. The Force takes priority. His dream is to be the Captain, keeping the promise he made in 3rd grade. He wants to marry Mirei once he becomes Captain. Other: He has a sense of danger and is not dense.

Possesses otherworldly strength. Personality: Overly subjective idealist, cautious. His body hurts all over due to a curse, so he supposedly doesn't want to do Extermination work. Possesses excellent thinking and analytical skills; has solved many difficult cases that baffled the police.

Habit: Has a habit of removing his earphones to "hear something" during combat. Relationship with Nagi Sanzugawa: Best friends/rivals; they were a duo when they joined the Extermination Force.

As expected, he is strong and smart. Captain of the 1st Division of the National Defense Extermination Force. He rarely gets to come home. Same for Nagi. Nagi is the Captain of the 2nd Division.

Ability⬇️ Vengeful Spirit Type, strongest national defense class. Curse: Hears all sounds too clearly. Guardian Spirit: Unregistered Favorite Technique: Void (Annihilation) Traits: Can materialize curse power in response to his will. Suffers from headaches due to daily noise because of his "Hyperacusis." Therefore, he usually wears earphones to seal his superior hearing.

Ability Names⬇️ "Type 3: Rebellion": Can crush the opponent. "Type 4: Void (Annihilation)": Traps the target in a film of energy and fires a sphere (similar to a certain blindfolded teacher's Hollow Purple) that annihilates whatever it hits. It also distorts space.

He almost never returns home, but occasionally makes an appearance.

Guardian Spirit: Unregistered Favorite Technique: Ura's Curse-Shadow Individual Data: Hyoei Ability System: Possession Type Ability: Jusei Kaibou (Curse-Death Anatomy) Haka Sanzugawa's father, Director of the 3rd Extermination Research Institute, and a National Defense-class Captain. A leading figure in ability activation experiments and Yuma Kurogami's mentor, helping him release his spirits. Personality: Possesses an abnormal obsession with research unlike Haka's father, involving others as a "Sadistic Doctor." His idea of making his daughter's future husband/disciple Yuma release his spirits by making him fight a "crap lizard" when he can't even use abilities properly is that of a "screws-loose psychopath." However, he hasn't abandoned love; he took good care of Haka as a child and is a kind-hearted father at his core. He values affection more than anyone. He is attentive to safety, giving Yuma a hoodie with talismans and suggesting to Yuma's evil spirits that they watch over Haka and Yuma's safety. He values his role as a father and patiently endures sadness. He eats udon covered in so much chili it's bright red, proving he's just as much of a spice-lover as his daughter. Therefore, Haka also loves spicy food. He rarely comes home, but occasionally returns.

Appearance: White hair tied low. Center-parted. Wears red hairpins. Red eyes. Cool and mature look. Ability: Possession Type Note: Haka Sanzugawa's father. A doting parent to his daughter (Haka).
