' ' Sick of grown-ups thinking their time is equal to ours. We've got lives, and we're not wasting them on your dumb, smug speeches! ' ' While unable to see ghosts, Mogari has the ability to forcibly exorcise them by consuming them. By touching or being touched by another person with spiritual powers, like Kaoru or Kotaro, he can temporarily borrow their own spiritual abilities and share that gift among those who are spiritually sensitive. Hailing from a lineage of spiritual mediums, he had to choose between training in the Akita Mountains or enhancing his skills by exorcising spirits in Kamakura. Opting for Kamakura, he sought a youthful experience.Mogari is a teenaged boy of average height with fair skin, bright red eyes, and thin, black eyebrows. He has medium length black hair that is usually styled in an unruly manner with a single bang that sits in between his eyes. As a pure-blooded Shishikuno, he was born with sharp, elongated canines that give him a vampire-like appearance, and a black tattoo of the kanji for "eat" (喰, ku) framed into a black box on the back of his tongue. While in school, Mogari wears the Ryuoh High School uniform which consists of a white dress-shirt, a blue neck tie, and black dress pants. He prefers to not wear the tan blazer, while also rolling the sleeves of the dress-shirt to his elbows and keeping the neck tie somewhat loose. The summer variation of the uniform is a white short-sleeved dress-shirt, a blue neck tie, and black dress pants. During the school's formal events, such as the entrance ceremony, he wears the complete uniform. His outdoor shoes are typically a pair of black converse-style sneakers, while indoors he wears white slip-on shoes called uwabaki (上うわ履ばき) with a red strip indicating that he is a first year student. Outside of school, Mogari doesn't seem to have much of an interest in fashion and favors simple discount clothing, most notably a white t-shirt, black sweatpants, and sandals. Though, his casual appearance varies such as different colored t-shirts, shorts, and his sneakers. In middle school, Mogari's hair was much longer and he was not as expressive as his current self. He wore a school uniform consisting of a black gakuran and black dress pants.Mogari is an energetic, impulsive, and enthusiastic person with a carefree attitude that makes him seem more relaxed than he actually is. He always has a smile on his face, carries an infectious energy, and has an easy-going way of socializing, though his occasional laziness and tendency to avoid unnecessary effort make some see him as unserious. However, beneath his carefree exterior, he is incredibly loyal and protective of his friends. While he is not the most strategic or academically inclined, he is perceptive in his own way, often picking up on things that others might overlook. His intuition and quick thinking make him far from a fool, even if he doesn’t excel in traditional studies. Coming from the Shishikuno Clan, Mogari inherited a unique ability that allows him to exorcize ghosts by eating them. However, his position as the clan’s heir has also made him a target. His relationship with his family is complicated because of that. While some members respect him, others see his status as a price to claim and would rather see him eliminated to take his place. This has led to a tense dynamic within his own household, particularly with his uncle, whom he strongly dislikes. It is established that he was not as extroverted in middle school. Before that, his status as heir to the Shishikuno Clan made him look imposing to other students, who compared him to a living god.One of his most notable traits is his habit of sticking out his tongue, a recurring gesture that seems to be more of an instinct than a conscious choice. He also has an insatiable appetite, which, aside from being a personal quirk, is a fundamental part of his fighting style. However, when he enters battle, his attitude shifts dramatically. He becomes more serious and focused, confronting ghosts without hesitation. He openly reprimands spirits for their actions, and if any of them harm his friends, he is willing to put himself at risk to protect them. He also becomes much more aggressive often yelling at the ghosts and attacking them like a vicious animal would its prey. Psychic Power ------------------ Spirit Devouring: Mogari inherited the Shishikuno Clan's ability to consume and digest spirits within his own body, allowing him to exorcise them without conventional purification methods. Initially, he was unable to fully digest them and required a special sake to induce vomiting and expel the spirits from his body. However, after Botan forcibly injected him with numerous vengeful spirits, Mogari's capacity to withstand and contain them greatly increased. Skills ----------- Mogari possesses exceptional physical abilities, particularly in terms of speed and reflexes. His movements are remarkably fast and instinctive, earning him a reputation as a physical "beast."
