Reiji Tokisaka
Occupation: Private Detective
A man shouldering dark memories and a difficult past. He’s solved many cases, made friends as well as lost them—and all the while, he’s been desperately searching for a girl who disappeared.
Yukari Tokisaka
Occupation: Student
Reiji Tokisaka’s little sister is the perfect model of a Japanese woman, always kind and caring towards her older brother. Currently having difficulty planning her future, since it’s tricky to make a living as an artist.
As she blossoms into womanhood, she still has the same relationship with Masaki as ever: not too close, but not too far. (She’s starting to have thoughts about this.)
Tomoyuki Masaki
Occupation: Assistant at the Tokisaka Detective Agency
Ever since Yukari stopped him from committing suicide in Inokashira Park, Masaki has been doing what he can to help her brother out at the Tokisaka Detective Agency.
Emotionally distant to the point that even the death of a close acquaintance can’t shake him, he’s recently resumed his treatment at a psychologist’s clinic.
He assists Reiji’s investigations in the hopes of finding his childhood friend who turned to crime and disappeared.
Ayumu Sato
Occupation: Student
Yukari’s underclassman at their girls’ school who has a powerful sense of justice and dreams of working as a detective’s Watson. Having come to understand how hard an assistant detective’s job is (largely because Reiji won’t take her on), she’s been thinking more seriously about the future of late.
Her androgynous looks have also won her a certain popularity on campus.
Kyoko Hazuki
Occupation: Cafe Owner
This resilient woman runs the Moon World cafe, which she inherited from her late husband.
Previously had a physical relationship with Reiji, who had also lost someone important to him, and believed that the two could heal each other’s wounds, but the two are now moving in different directions. She still struggles with the fact that Reiji’s heart is elsewhere. However, someone else might be looking her way...
Toji Aoki
Occupation: Freelance Reporter
Formerly a high-ranking member of the Ueno-based organization known as the Hand of Death, after the case involving the Senri cult, she awoke to the joys of journalism.
Now, she runs independent investigations into various social issues, and sometimes cooperates with both Reiji and the police. Most famous for her keen eye and physical abilities, which let her go toe to toe with dangerous criminals.
Natsume Takashiro
Occupation: Coroner
The head of the Takashiro Clinic, and a skilled doctor who prefers dissecting murder victims to healing those who are still alive.
Though professionally reliable, her eccentric personality and deviant proclivities leave her in a perpetual state of frustration.
Maris Stella
Occupation: Museum Curator
A curator at the Tokyo Metropolitan Art Museum. She first met Reiji during his investigation into the Girl In Shell case and has deep connections to both Toji and Rokushiki. Typically difficult to engage in conversation, she becomes surprisingly fluent when the topic turns to art.
Between the discovery of Mamiya’s unannounced work Exile of Paradise and the situation with Rokushiki, a new void is opening up in her heart. Where will the currents of fate take her...?
Kaede Watanuki
Occupation: Psychiatrist
A mental health specialist who works part time at the Kuchiki Clinic. Responsible for both Masaki and Michiru’s treatment. Kaede views Masaki as a fascinating subject because he received counseling from Rokushiki in the past.
She, too, formerly sought interviews with the latter and attempted to analyze his mind, but found the task more difficult than she bargained for.
Sei Maezono
Occupation: Art Gallery Staff
A laid-back, somewhat sloppy woman who works at the Sasakura art gallery in Kichijoji. Her work with old art materials for the gallery has partially morphed into a collecting hobby, and her clothes are often covered with paint stains.
Masaki also worked at the gallery for a time, making the two of them former coworkers. Sei seems to have trouble remembering names, however, as she calls Masaki something new every time she encounters him.
Toko Kuchiki
Occupation: Student
A girl who met the detective Reiji Tokisaka in Inokashira Park in the March of 1956. She asked him to find her true self. Deeply lonely, the better he came to understand her, the more she was drawn to him, and their wounded souls came to find comfort in each other.
However, she was caught in an accident and, while she managed to hang onto her life, was left incapacitated and kidnapped shortly thereafter. It seems there had been a new life growing inside her belly at the time...
