Height: 174cm
Specialty: Gluttony, Athletics
Hobbies: Eating limited-time or new products, Movies
Favorite Food: Anything edible, especially filling foods
Ability: Exorcises spirits by eating them. *Visually, it apparently looks like a person eating another person alive.

Personality: Bright, energetic, and simple-minded. Lives vibrantly without being bound by his family lineage. Loves eating large quantities. He says spirits taste like "a mass of every possible secretion from a living being left to rot," but he eats them without a care.
Address Terms: Mogari, (by Ren) Master Mogari
Speech Style: "Isn't it?" "Right!" A high-energy, vigorous tone. First person: I (casual/rough)
Overview: 1st year, Class A. Comes from a family famous for cursing people to death. (He publicly declares he would "never do such a thing.") He cannot see spirits unless he shares Kanzaki's spiritual power. President of PhanBus. He has high physical ability and a solid, lean-muscled build. He has little interest in clothes, usually wearing simple sports brand T-shirts and tracksuits bought at bargain sales in supermarkets. He only knows old movies and wants to see many new ones. He eats like a beast but has an insane metabolism and moves constantly, so he never gets fat. A physical monster.

Gender: Male
Age: 16 (Born September 23rd)
Height: 170cm
Specialty: Studying, speed reading, memorization, tea tasting

Ability: Highly competent at work. Has no spiritual sense or power.
Appearance: High-quality orange hair and green eyes. Round glasses. (Actually the most handsome member of PhanBus.)
Personality: A calm, easy-going, and highly capable worker. He is particular about tea and becomes troublesome when he gets obsessed with something. A super-elite, high-spec boy. While he is sensible, he is naturally driven by intellectual desire and curiosity, making him the most difficult to deal with once he dives into a topic.
Address Terms: Koreshiki
Speech Style: "I wonder if..." "Right?" A gentle and composed tone. First person: I (polite/soft)
Overview: 1st year, Class A. One-quarter British. The strategist of PhanBus, handling administrative work to compensate for his lack of spiritual sight. His athletic ability is average, but his intelligence is extraordinary. He wears simple but high-quality private clothes. It seems the blood of a British gentleman flows in him after all.
Name: Kaoru Kanzaki

Age: 16 (Born November 22nd)
Height: 171cm
Specialty: Spiritual vision

Favorite Food: Cosmo Doria from Royal Host, sausages and fried eggs over white rice with soy sauce eaten in the middle of the night. *Dislikes slimy textures (okra, natto, mountain yam, etc.).
Ability: Can see spirits, but cannot speak to them. (Sees them so clearly they are indistinguishable from living people.)
Appearance: Dyed white hair and purple eyes rimmed with lime green. A scar near his eye (which occasionally gets itchy). Relatively fond of fashion.
Personality: A downer-type manga otaku with a youngest-child temperament. Consequently, he often has others carry his luggage or give him rides on their bikes (since the others are all caring types, no one refuses). A total humanities student.
Address Terms: Zaki, Zakichi, Chan-Zaki
Speech Style: "Ain't it?" "Right." A listless and somewhat detached tone. First person: I (casual/rough)
Overview: 1st year, Class C. From an ordinary family. He dyes his hair and wears piercings to keep spirits away. (He looks like a delinquent at first glance, but he's not.) He joined the club because they didn't judge him or his hobbies. He seems to like techwear. He wants to look tough to ward off spirits, but he doesn't like the stereotypical delinquent aesthetic. His neat appearance is less about his own will and more influenced by family dynamics.

Address Terms: Tamon
Speech Style: "Yeah, right?" "Must be." A tone that feels like a big brother. First person: I (casual/rough)
Overview: 1st year, Class C. Parents work in the music industry (Tamon himself is incredibly talented). He joined on the condition that "Tamon listens to the spirits' stories, and if they can't be passed on, Mogari eats them." He has a good metabolism, so he's lean-muscled, though not as much as Mogari. He's reasonably smart. He sweats easily, so he prioritizes quick-drying and functional private clothes. His feet and shoulders are quite large. He doesn't work out, but he's naturally muscular.

Address Terms: Yomaru
Overview: Currently lives on a cat tower set up in the PhanBus clubroom. Seems to be acquainted with Ren and Charles. Enjoys life in Kamakura, based at Kamakura Yanagi-Sakura High School. He gets raw whitebait from fishermen at the port in the morning and visits sushi shops for scraps when hungry—a real gourmet. He has many wealthy patrons who feed him, so he never lacks food. Consequently, he is a bit overweight, but he is surprisingly agile and a strong, healthy cat. He not only has spiritual senses like seeing and hearing but also understands human speech. Being a cat, he cannot exchange words, but he is a quiet and kind-hearted cat who cannot leave troubled humans alone. He is well-loved in the town.

Address Terms: President Ichimiya, President
Speech Style: (Public) "Is it not?" "I presume." A formal, precise tone. / (Private) "It's like this! cries" "Maybe..." A timid tone. First person: I (formal)
Overview: A third-year student serving as Student Council President. He spends a lot on outerwear to maintain his "as expected of the President!" image while keeping the rest simple and mature. In reality, he doesn't care much about clothes (he struggles to pay for them from his meager allowance). Others assume he is a scion of a good family, but he was raised in a perfectly ordinary household. Because he acted like a chuunibyou when he entered school, he ended up forced to play the role of his "perfect self" for three years. However, his strength—and his headache—is that he performs the role so thoroughly that he actually succeeds in being the "ideal President."
Name: Botan Kadenokouji

Age: Born May 17th
Height: 180cm

Ability: Barrier techniques, spirit binding, anti-demon fire bullets, summoning shikigami using his sister's remains as a medium.
Appearance: Dark azalea-colored hair, pale yellow upturned eyes with pentagram-shaped pupils. A genuine hottie.
Personality: Mogari calls him a "nasty, petty-worded man." A refreshing young man in public, but his trashy side leaks out in front of PhanBus members. Fully aware he's handsome. Serious. Can vent his complaints directly to Mogari.
Address Terms: Onmyoji, (by Mogari) The Nasty-Souled Kyoto Hottie
Speech Style: (Public) "Right!" "It is." "I wonder?" / (Private) Kyoto dialect
Overview: Descendant of a Kyoto Onmyoji family. Currently a 2nd year. The public family business is one of Kyoto's leading long-established wagashi shops, passed down for generations to hide from the world. Because they hide their Onmyoji status, they don't expand or seek media exposure, living quietly on the outskirts of Kyoto... however, since his father Ranso is also incredibly handsome and the son is a refreshing hottie, they have secret but passionate support from the elegant women of Kyoto, and the shop prospers anyway. (Separately, as one of the oldest shops in Kyoto, they seem to be highly valued.)
