Nyuudou Rensuke

Nyuudou Rensuke is a student at Hyakki Academy. He is a Hitotsume-kozou.
and is a class representative of Class 2-3

## Appearance

Nyuudou has dyed orange hair, and his natural hair is dark brown. He has one eye and no nose, due to his youkai type. He wears the boys uniform with a white shirt underneath his uniform shirt.

He typically wears a button up with jeans outside of school.

## Personality

Nyuudou comes off as very mild-mannered and rather kind, as a class representative. When it comes to his best friend Tamao or Utagawa, he tends to be very protective over them whenever someone tries to attack or harass them.

However, whenever he gets angry, he can be quick to violence, such as punching Mujina in the face in Chapter 20 or bashing Hijita's head in when he first moved in with him. He tends to be threatening to most students and will attack usually as a preliminary thing with his initial anger. He can also be rather vulgar when he's angry, swearing at some of the youkai who were trying to keep him in his room.

## Powers

With his single, giant eye, he can see a far distance. He has a remarkable, "better-than-120-vision" with his sight, being able to spot where the mall was on fire and that Haruaki was hiding in the clouds, waiting for Nyuudou to go onto the roof.

## Relationships

### Haruaki Abe

Nyuudou is more like the teacher out of the both of them, Nyuudou usually being the leader when it comes to school trips. Haruaki praises Nyuudou often, usually for his academic skill or his abilities of being a youkai. Nyuudou states that he was jealous of Haruaki for being a human, and says that he wishes he was a human so that the girl he liked wouldn't have been scared of him. He feels comfortable enough with Haruaki to discuss his past and talk about Ruri.

### Kuniko Utagawa

Nyuudou and Utagawa get along very well as class representatives. They work together often and complemented each other with Nyuudou's violent nature contrasting Utagawa's very kind nature. They both are the most responsible students and tend to be the leaders when it comes to class trips. They study together on occasion.

In his past, he knew a young, sick girl named Ruri. When Ruri learned that he was a youkai, Nyuudou ran off, and took the elevator. A few days later, when he tried to visit his mom, he learned that Ruri was "discharged". However, after listening in on the nurses, he learned that she had fallen down the stairwell and passed the day he ran off. He blamed himself for her death and his mother's death, due to it being stressful on a human's body to give birth to a youkai.

Years later, when he learned about Utagawa being Ruri, he decided to start fresh with her, and developed a crush on her. He decided to throw the rings with Utagawa into the ocean and promised to himself to find a ring that suited Utagawa.

### Koutarou Hijita

The two are roommates, starting from their first year. They didn't get along at first, due to Hijita thinking that Nyuudou was an annoying goody two-shoes and wanted nothing to do with him. Nyuudou was initially just going to spend a week with him at the request of Hijita's former roommate, however, after seeing how Hijita acted towards him and Tamao, he decided to room with him for the rest of the year and into the following year to fix his attitude. Even though Nyuudou and Hijita get into a lot of arguments, they are rather close, with Nyuudou telling Hijita about how he's run away from home before.

### Hajime Nyuudou

Hajime is Rensuke's father, though the two have a rather strained relationship. Hajime is very cold towards everyone, including his son, being willing to pull his son out of Hyakki Academy in order to "protect" him from Haruaki. He has very little regard for what his son wants, opting to do what he believes is best for him always and never listened to him. After seeing Rensuke fall out of his window in order to avoid the people in the hallway, Hajime finally sees his son as a teenager. When Rensuke falls off the roof to let Haruaki catch him, Hajime accepted defeat and was willing to let Haruaki continue teaching Rensuke.

After the Renren Arc, Hajime tries to be more active in Rensuke's life and be a better father to him, joining Kurai and one of the maids to Parent Observation Day. Though Rensuke hides it, he's rather happy to see his father there.

### Akisame Tamao

In their first year, Tamao did not like Nyuudou. He believed that he was a smart, good-looking guy who got all the girls, and who had attracted the eye of Kuniko, who Tamao had a crush on. On one of their Japanese exams, Tamao challenged Nyuudou to see who could get the higher score. Nyuudou got a much higher score than he did and Tamao was dismayed by this. However, Nyuudou pointed out that Tamao managed to get a question right that Nyuudou had gotten wrong. They both made a promise to see if by the end of their high school career if Tamao would finally be able to get a higher score in Japanese than Nyuudou.

They are currently best friends and Tamao's first dream is to become Nyuudou's pet cat when he gets a wife and a daughter. Though, he knows that Nyuudou would find this to be a stupid dream, which is why he never told him. Nyuudou likes seeing how Tamao gets better with his academics, being very proud of him when he managed to get a 38 on an exam, though he hid it when he first heard about it,
