Biography
Kagerou Shoukiin is Karuta's partner, Soushi's former master and Ririchiyo's fiancé. In human form he usually wears a mask and old-fashioned European clothing, while his youkai form has horns, pointed ears and a kimono. Bossy, blunt, arrogant and eccentric, he delights in categorizing others through his sadistic worldview.
Story spoilers
In the manga, despite that abrasive exterior, Kagerou cares about his friends. He dies in the demon raid, then appears twenty-three years later as a twenty-year-old incarnation who remains close to Natsume and Soushi. He later works with the others to prevent another demon parade and is prepared to sacrifice his future existence by traveling into the past before Karuta stops him.
