Yoichiro Migiwa

is a major character in the 2017 light novel series Otherside Picnic.
He is the enigmatic director of the mysterious Dark Science Research Encouragement Association (DS Lab), who seeks out to help victims trapped in the mysterious world known as the Otherside, while personally interrogating and torturing those who are responsible.
Migiwa serves as an important ally to Sorawo Kamikoshi, Toriko Nishina, and Kozakura, starting from Volume 4 of the Light Novel, and has known the enigmatic Satsuki Uruma for a very long time, and has connections to a private military company known as Torchlight Inc. He is skilled in torture, interrogation, firearms, and traps.
==Appearance==
Migiwa is a tall man with long limbs and legs, a narrow face with sunken cheekbones, and nicely styled long, curly hair. His arms are tattooed with Mayan lettering, which he describes as 'of juvenile discretion.' He maintains a professional demeanour at all times, frequently donning an expensive-looking tailored three-piece suit.
==Personality==
Migiwa is a kind individual who treats others with respect. He has a mature demeanour that makes determining his age difficult.
He's also adept at looking after people, thanks to his position as director of DS Lab, which cares after the Otherside's victims.
But beneath Migiwa's kind and caring personality, he is more than he appears to be, and he appears to have experience, and he was really better experienced in violence when he needed to be. He once demonstrated it when he did not hesitate to show violence against one of Urumi's cultists after being arrested during one of his interrogations.
Sorawo Kamikoshi made the observation that Migiwa might not be a law-abiding citizen after all, as he borders more to a grey zone extremist, in spite of his egalitarian approach to save victims trapped in the Otherside.
==Background==
Migiwa used to work for Torchlight Inc., a private military company, but nothing is known about him prior to his role as director of DS Lab. He then joined DS Lab, and thanks to the funds the group obtained to continue operations, he was able to live his life according to his tastes for a while.
He would later play a role in saving Sorawo Kamikoshi and Kozakura, with the latter mistaken for Toriko Nishina, from Urumi and her own cultists who were affected by her ability Voice.
==Trivia==
*Despite being a researcher, in the past Migiwa devoted to the real-life American writer during his teenage years.
