Atsuko Chuuzenji

Noritada Amemiya

An antique book dealer christened "Kyougokudou" after the name of his store. Also a part-time Shinto priest who performs pseudo "exorcisms" to solve psychological problems, despite the fact that he himself does not believe in the supernatural.   He is fond of spouting knowledge on a variety of obscure subjects, and enjoys philosophical discussion.  He solved the case of the dismembered murder and revealed everything in the last 2 episodes of the anime.  He is friends with Sekiguchi, Eno and Kiba. Also, he has a little sister named Atsuko who is a reporter.

Akihiko Chuuzenji

He's a novelist but, as his short stories don't allow him to live properly, he often works for the press. He was in the same college as Kyougokudou and hangs around with him. He's often teased by his friends in regards to his poor social skills.  During the war, Sekiguchi fought with Kiba in the same regiment. While the details about this period are unknown, it is implied that Sekiguchi is a deserter who suffers from psychological disorders because of what he saw and did during the war.  He has a wife named Yukie.

A young reporter and a friend of Sekiguchi that begins to investigate the dismemberment case.
