An average journalist who fell into the paranormal investigation by chance, not choice. Fresh out of college, his first job was with a tabloid focusing on the spooky and unexplained, a placement decided by HR rather than personal interest. Initially indifferent to the occult, the Reporter's viewpoint shifted over time. He discovered intrigue not in the supernatural itself but in the eccentric characters drawn to it.

Now, he's on the hunt for a credible story about the curse of Kotori-bako, a pursuit that exemplifies his evolved approach to his work. He quips, "The occult? Boring. But the crazy people it attracts? That's where the real story is."
