Naito Mudano

Naito Mudano (無む陀だ野の 無ない人と, Mudano Naito) is an Oni and an instructor at Rasetsu Academy. He is a member of the Oni Corporation and was an elite member of the Combat Unit before becoming a teacher.

Appearance

Mudano is a tall, slim man with black eyes and black hair that is parted to the left, two vertical black stripes are visible on his right cheek and he usually dresses in black formalwear; sometimes with white pinstripes. For the sake of efficiency,[2] he often wears rollerblades instead of shoes.

It is usually hidden, but Mudano also has an unfinished blackout tattoo;[3] only the sleeve is visible when he wears a t-shirt, but Oiranzaka states that it's a full-body piece Mudano updates when a friend is killed. The full tattoo is made up of blocks and shapes of black ink, as well as a few symbols that cover his arm, chest, and stomach.

Personality

Mudano is a quiet and serious man with a disdain for inefficiency, he's a very difficult person to impress, he'd never personally admitted anyone to the Academy prior to Shiki.[4] Although he comes across as cold and extreme in his methods, Mudano is a gentle person who cares about his students and pushes them only because he wants them to be strong enough to escape the threats they face as Oni.[5]

He is a patient individual who does not rise to mockery - whether it be from his friends or his enemies, it doesn't matter. Mudano seems to deliberately keep his distance from even those who appear close to him but quietly comforts and encourages his students when they are upset.

Despite his calm and collected nature, he does grow angry as well to the point of possible destruction, mostly in regards to what may happen to his students because of Momotarou.

Intro Arc

Mudano appears behind Shiki as he mourns Tsuyoshi's death at an abandoned construction site following the clash with Samidare Momoya , immediately knocking him out. He then calmly takes notes on his clipboard, complaining that a formal entrance exam for Shiki would be pointless.[6]

In an empty room at a different location, Mudano has an unconscious Shiki tied to a chair. While performing one-handed pushups balanced atop his upright umbrella, Mudano notices Shiki waking up startled. He introduces himself, explaining that he is safekeeping Tsuyoshi's body and that Shiki is there for an exam. This evaluation is exclusive to newly awakened Oni to determine if they are a viable asset for their organization.[7]

Mudano allows Shiki to ask questions but quickly becomes frustrated when Shiki asks about things already explained. As the exam continues, Mudano begins deducting points, which only serves to annoy Shiki further. Viewing Shiki’s blind desire for revenge as suicidal, Mudano decides to demonstrate a 'proper' method for handling such recklessness. He leaps behind Shiki, unties his own necktie, and begins strangling him. Mudano coldly states that Shiki must either prove his worth by escaping this dire situation or die.[8]

Mudano expresses disappointment as Shiki goes berserk, breaking his chair and aiming a Blood Machine Gun at him at point-blank range. Mudano effortlessly defends against the barrage using an umbrella fashioned from his own blood. After a brief struggle, Mudano emerges victorious, pinning Shiki to the ground and sitting atop him to end the confrontation.[9]

Noticing that Shiki has exited his berserk state, Mudano explains that Oni blood is notoriously difficult to control, only to be dismissed by Shiki's frustration. Mudano formally fails Shiki, emphasizing the discipline required to master his powers. Recognizing Mudano's overwhelming strength, Shiki asks to become his subordinate, but is promptly rejected. While Mudano maintains that berserkers are too dangerous to go unchecked, he subtly demonstrates the technique for releasing and shaping blood into an umbrella.[10]

In a final act of defiance, Shiki drags his hand against the ground to draw blood and charges forward one last time. Dismissing Shiki's attack as a desperate move, Mudano sprouts massive blood spikes from his umbrella. After calculating every possible outcome of the battle, Mudano is certain of his victory. However, to his surprise, Shiki uses one of the spikes as a stepping stone, leaping into the air while manifesting a Blood Rifle and firing a direct shot.[11]

Surprise quickly turns to disappointment as Mudano shatters the projectile with a single finger, dismissing the attack as a fluke. He notices Shiki on the verge of going berserk again and concludes that the boy still lacks control. However, as Mudano summons Blood Archers and prepares a massive barrage, Shiki begins to resist the takeover. To Mudano's shock, Shiki regains his composure through sheer willpower. Seeking answers, Mudano demands to know how he managed to suppress the berserk state on his own.[12]

Struggling to comprehend Shiki’s emotional logic, Mudano ponders the contrast between his own control based on Reason and Shiki’s, which stems from Feeling. Shiki immediately asks to become an asset to Mudano, aiming to become the 'perfect weapon', but is rejected once more as Mudano dismisses his Blood Archers. However, to Shiki’s surprise, Mudano announces he will take him on as a student.[13]

He explains they are currently on Onigashima, an isolated island that houses the Rasetsu Academy. The institution was established to train young Oni to master their blood and study the history of the Oni-Momotarou conflict, eventually preparing them to join the Oni Corporation. Mudano clarifies his dual role as both an instructor and dormitory supervisor. Shiki agrees to join, but only on the condition that he becomes strong enough to eventually kill Samidare Momoya.[14]

Maintaining his eccentric habits, Mudano performs one-handed pushups balanced on his umbrella outside the locker room. When Shiki panics over horns sprouting from his head, Mudano calmly dismisses his concerns, explaining that they can be concealed with proper training. When Shiki inquires about his father, Mudano reveals that Tsuyoshi’s body is in the mortuary, leaving the funeral arrangements to Shiki.[15]

As they head to class, Mudano’s phone rings while Shiki nervously ponders his entrance. Irritated, Mudano kicks Shiki into the classroom before answering. He speaks with a mysterious hooded figure who remarks that Mudano hasn't brought a candidate to the school in years and notes his uncharacteristic excitement—a claim Mudano immediately denies.[16] After a brief bickering between Shiki and his new classmate, Jin, Mudano effortlessly repositions the boys next to each other. Deviating from the standard first-day orientation, Mudano stuns the class by announcing their first assignment: a game of tag.[17]

Tag Arc

Mudano assembles Shiki and his classmates at the entrance of Shinra Forest—located 12km south of the Academy—and tasks them with returning to the school grounds within an hour. He explains that he will act as the 'Tagger' and reveals that they must retrieve and bring back one of the balls he has thrown deep into the woods to succeed. Mudano warns that anyone caught will be restrained, and if the entire class is captured, they all fail. Juji quickly realizes the game is not just against Mudano, but also a competition among the students themselves.[18]

While performing one-finger pushups, Mudano raises the stakes by stating that anyone who fails will be expelled. Transitioning into one-finger handstand pushups, he outlines the essential qualities of an Oni and his expectations for the challenge. To even the odds, he declares he will not use his Oni powers, though the students are encouraged to attack him with everything they have. When Jin suggests this arrogance could lead to Mudano's death, the instructor coldly clarifies that anyone who kills him will graduate immediately.[19] After organizing the students into three groups—(1) Shiki, Jin, and Homare; (2) Juji and Ikari; and (3) Kuina and Rokuro—[20]Mudano grants Shiki's team a 15-minute head start.[21]

At the edge of the forest, Mudano warms up to pursue Shiki’s team when he is approached by the same mysterious hooded figure from the phone. Mudano reveals him to be the Principal of the Academy as they debate his decision to conduct outdoor training instead of a traditional classroom lecture. The Principal somberly notes that Oni—especially children—are killed every day or turned into research subjects. He implores Mudano to make the students strong enough to survive such a cruel fate. Their conversation is cut short by a massive explosion and smoke rising from the woods, prompting Mudano to leave and investigate the cause.[22]

Arriving at the scene, Mudano sees Byobugaura`s manifestation of blood taking the form of a towering titan wreaking havoc while she lies in anguish and quietly ponders how Shiki and Jin will handle the chaos.[23] Mudano observes the stark contrast between the two: while Shiki still struggles to manipulate his blood,[24] Jin demonstrates his proficiency by creating multiple objects simultaneously.Mudano notes that Jin's skill level is significantly more advanced than his peers.[25] Just as he considers intervening to prevent them from losing more ground, Shiki defies expectations by successfully manifesting his Blood Rifle.[26]

Reflecting on how Blood Eclipse Release functions, Mudano analyzes the differences among Shiki, Jin and Homare, noting that their powers stem from hobbies, experience, and trauma, respectively. Unexpectedly, Shiki fires a massive projectile that destroys the blood titan and causes Homare to faint. Mudano reveals himself just as Shiki collapses from anemia, having used an excessive amount of blood for his final shot; Mudano remarks that pushing such limits could have been fatal.[27]

Although Shiki asks Mudano to prioritize Homare's safety, Jin suddenly attempts to strike Mudano from behind, only to be effortlessly blocked. When Mudano emphasizes that his classmates' well-being should be his priority, Jin retorts that he cares nothing for them. Maintaining his composure, Mudano coldly states that Jin’s personality is the type he detests the most.[28]

Reiterating that he will not use his blood powers, Mudano parries Jin’s saw-blade attacks with his customized umbrella. He then deploys a smokescreen from the umbrella's tip to disorient his opponent. Capitalizing on the distraction, Mudano gains distance and fires rubber bullets, injuring Jin's right arm.[29]

As Jin launches a ranged counterattack, Mudano evades and faces another direct charge. Mudano detaches the tip of his umbrella and throws it at Jin, triggering another smokescreen explosion. Before Jin can react, Mudano delivers a sharp strike to the left side of his rib cage. Using his umbrella inverted to pin him down, Mudano restrains Jin to the ground. He then questions if Jin would go to such extremes just to meet his father. Shocking Jin, Mudano reveals he has researched every student and knows that Jin’s father is a Momotarou.[30]

While rising from the ground, Jin tells Mudano he is willing to face death to make his father pay for his atrocities. Visibly angered, Mudano dashes forward and pins Jin back to the ground with overwhelming force, lecturing him that one should live for their dreams rather than die for them.[31]

After tying Jin to a tree and calling a medical unit for Homare, Mudano turns his attention to a newly awakened Shiki. Mudano reveals he is in possession of one of the required balls and gives Shiki a choice: find the second ball in the remaining time or attempt to steal the one from his hand. To Mudano's surprise, Shiki chooses to flee, leading to a high-speed chase through the forest.[32] After a while, Mudano loses sight of his student and wonders if Shiki has returned to the forest entrance. Suddenly, he hears Shiki nearby and intercepts him, only to realize he has fallen into a trap. Unbeknownst to Mudano, Shiki had doubled back to release Jin, using himself as bait to set up a surprise attack from his classmate.[33]

Mudano evades the initial assault, impressed by the teamwork, but overlooks that Jin is still holding the rope used to bind him. In an instant, Jin lashes the rope around Mudano, pinning his arms. Shiki grabs the other end, and both students pull with all their might to disrupt the instructor's balance. While Mudano easily holds his ground, Jin fires a ranged attack as a diversion, allowing Shiki to lunge for the ball. The ball falls near Jin, and Mudano theorizes their alliance will shatter now that only one can win.[34]

To Mudano's shock, Shiki selflessly shouts for Jin to take the ball and run. Mudano is stunned by Shiki's unpredictable nature and altruism. As Shiki celebrates their 'victory,' Mudano coldly reminds him that only Jin has won, meaning Shiki still faces expulsion—leaving the boy devastated. However, in a surprising turn of events, Jin returns to offer the ball to Shiki. Their moment is interrupted by Muku, a tapir carrying a communicator, who Mudano identifies as the Oni organization's most reliable messenger. A distress call from the Kyoto branch echoes from the device, urgently requesting reinforcements.

Kyoto Arc

Heeding the distress call, Mudano and his students — with the exception of Homare, who remains at the Academy to recover — board a yacht bound for Kyoto. Juji Yusurube expresses concern about bringing students into a war zone, but Mudano clarifies that they will only assist with routine duties rather than active combat.[36] Shiki, frustrated by the prospect of doing chores, is told by Mudano that this decision is meant to prevent unnecessary casualties.[37]

Meanwhile, Kuina complains about the mandatory school uniforms, though Mudano insists they are necessary for blending in, while also sternly ordering her to stop smoking on deck. The hypochondriac Rokuro asks for clarification on their duties, leading Mudano to explain the Oni Corporation's structure: the Attack Squad, responsible for combat, and the Support Squad, which provides shelter and medical care for victims. Mudano specifies that the students will assist the latter. Noticing Shiki's lingering focus on Samidare Momoya, Mudano reassures him that his rival will not be in Kyoto. However, when Shiki asks about the identity of the Kyoto Momotaro, Mudano remains vague, only warning that they are 'dangerous guys'.[38]

Exiting the Keihan Railway Kiyomizu-gojo Station, Mudano leads the students to the Mizumoto Restaurant, where an elderly woman reveals a secret passage leading to Kyoto's underground. As they traverse the tunnels, Mudano explains the historical connection between the Kiyomizu-dera Temple and the Oni, noting that figures like Moreh and Aterui were Oni honored with monuments. Upon reaching a specific door, Mudano reveals the Oni Corporation Kyoto Branch hideout.[39]

In the hallway, they encounter Oiranzaka Kyouya, the Kyoto Support Squad Commander, who is familiar with Mudano as they were classmates at Rasetsu Academy. Mudano bluntly announces he is heading to the front lines, and despite Shiki and Ikari's demands to join him, Mudano ignores them and departs, leaving the students under Kyouya's command.[40]

Arriving at the battlefield, Mudano takes Tsubakiri Momomiya and Yomogi Momokusa by surprise, unleashing a barrage from his Blood Archers and creating a smokescreen. As the haze dissipates, it is revealed that Tsubakiri used the corpses of the squad's Captain and Lieutenant as human shields, infuriating Mudano. Tsubakiri taunts him about discovering the Kyoto branch's secret base, but Mudano remains undeterred as the surviving squad members cheer for his arrival. When Tsubakiri mockingly asks for sightseeing recommendations — a thinly veiled attempt to locate the hideout — Mudano coldly suggests 'Hell' while manifesting his Blood Umbrella.[41]

Tsubakiri dismisses Mudano’s last comment as a joke before asking if his 'gift' has arrived, noting that it should be delivered any moment—much to Mudano’s confusion. Tsubakiri then reveals the truth: he infected the Oni corpses with black bacteria to remote-control them once they were brought into the hideout. To Mudano's horror, Tsubakiri begins activating the bacteria, testing the corpses to confirm they have already reached their destination.[42]

During Tsubakiri's test, Shiki finds himself in a dire situation. He remembers that Mudano had given him a handgun with bullets made from his own blood, as a precaution since his control over his powers is still unreliable.[43]

Mudano attempts to pierce Tsubakiri with his blood umbrella, but Tsubakiri defends himself using three Oni corpses while taunting him. Caught off-guard, Mudano is suddenly attacked by Aguri, Tsubakiri's 'pet' weapon. He barely manages to dodge, only for Aguri to repeatedly strike a nearby Oni's corpse, much to Mudano’s sorrow. After a heated exchange of insults, a worried Mudano orders the remaining Oni Squad members to retreat to the hideout. However, before they can act, Yomogi creates a massive barrier that traps them all. Tsubakiri then reveals that the corpses also contain transmitters, allowing him to pinpoint the hideout’s location beneath the Kiyomizu-dera Temple. Before departing with Yomogi, Tsubakiri allows Aguri to enter the barrier, coldly noting that such creatures are mass-produced and expendable. The creature begins to swell and eventually explodes; though Mudano orders everyone to take cover, he is caught in the blast. Once the barrier dissipates, Mudano is left wounded and unconscious on the ground.[44]

Mudano is woken up by the Oni Squad, who inform him that he has only been unconscious for fifteen minutes. Immediately, he gets up and departs for Kiyomizu-dera Temple, stating that his students are still there.[45] Upon arriving underground, Mudano and the Oni Squad are faced with a massive black barrier enveloping the hideout. Mudano notes that while he could break the barrier, doing so might damage the foundation of the Kiyomizu-dera Temple directly above and cause it to collapse. He then runs into Juji, who informs him that he has successfully scouted the enemy and evacuated all patients to the surface. Before Mudano can focus on evacuating the tourists from the temple, an Oni Squad member reveals that Homare has arrived. After a disturbing interaction between her and Juji, Mudano realizes there may be a way to evacuate all the tourists at once.[46]

Mudano stands at the foot of the mountain by Kiyomizu-dera’s Amida Hall with Homare, communicating with Juji via phone. His plan is to have Homare’s titan form cause a landslide to force an immediate evacuation of the tourists. The Oni Squad would then guide them out while Juji uses his abilities to ensure the area is clear. Although Homare was initially hesitant to release her blood titan, Mudano convinces her; the titan eventually triggers the landslide while attempting to attack Mudano. Once Juji confirms the evacuation is successful, Mudano puts Homare to sleep, dismissing her titan. Mudano and the Oni Squad then head back underground, where he unleashes a barrage from his blood archers to shatter Yomogi’s barrier.[47]

Mudano and the Oni Squad arrive at the scene of the confrontation between Yomogi and his students, Ikari and Jin. Together, they corner her, preparing to take her on as a united front.[48] Yomogi confines herself within one of her boxes to avoid combat with Mudano. Realizing the underground is collapsing, Mudano orders the Oni Squad to leave her be, as they have the pressing matter of searching for survivors. Mudano and Jin rush toward the medical ward, where they find Kyouya providing first aid to Shiki. Mudano shifts his attention to a dying Tsubakiri, and they exchange words regarding Shiki’s Kishin powers; Tsubakiri reveals that the boy’s flames appear to be burning away his life. Mudano mercifully puts an end to Tsubakiri's misery before evacuating the underground with the remaining Oni.[49]

The next morning, at an Oni-run hostel, Mudano greets the newly awakened Shiki and congratulates him on defeating Tsubakiri. He advises his students to never forget those they have lost—such as Mei’s parents—but to keep moving forward. Later, Mudano and his students head to the harbor to depart for Onigashima, where he watches Kyouya and Mei bid them farewell as they board the ship.[50]

Upon arriving at the school, Mudano begins his lecture on the three subdivisions within the Oni Corporation: the Combat Unit, the Patrol Unit, and the Medical Unit, explaining that students will enlist in one of them upon graduation. Following the lesson, Mudano discusses room assignments for the boarding school. Since there is an odd number of students, the remaining person must pair up with him. After much bickering and drama among the students, the pairings are finalized: Mudano and Juji (Room B-1), Jin and Shiki (Room B-2), Ikari and Rokuro (Room B-3), and Kuina and Homare (Room A-1).[51]

Nerima Arc

Three weeks after the Kyoto incident, Mudano takes his students on a field trip to Tokyo. To remain unnoticed, everyone—including Mudano, who goes by the name Kondo—is in disguise. Upon leaving Hikarigaoka Station, Mudano reprimands Shiki for complaining that they aren't closer to central Tokyo. He instructs the students to head to the hotel and prepare for the next day's Patrol Unit tour. Mudano also assigns Shiki a special task: he must have his blood collected after the tour, handing him a card with the designated address. With everything settled, they head to their hotel.[52]

The following morning, Mudano takes his students to a used bookstore in Nerima called Tougen Bookstore. Before entering, he warns them not to wander off as Shiki had done the previous night—an act for which he had already been reprimanded. Inside, Mudano selects three specific books and speaks to the clerk in code, disguising their exchange as a casual conversation. Recognizing the signal, the attendant welcomes them to the Nerima Patrol Unit’s undercover base. Introducing himself as Kaoru Namikido, he explains that most members are out on reconnaissance and that high-level data is secured underground. Kaoru also provides a brief overview of the Oni Corporation's three main subdivisions. Before dismissing the class, Mudano notes they will visit the units that interest them most the next day and reminds Shiki of his scheduled blood collection.[53]

Later that night, Mudano and his students—with the exception of Shiki—are heading back to the hotel when Jin unexpectedly saves two girls from an out-of-control truck. Mudano notes that Jin used his powers and warns him that the street cameras are under Momotaro control; whenever an Oni uses their blood, it triggers an alert for the Momotaro in the city. Over the phone, Mudano coordinates an evacuation with Kaoru, ordering the students to prepare for departure while Kaoru sends a unit member to retrieve Shiki. Once Shiki arrives, Mudano reassures Jin that if he hones his combat skills, he will eventually be able to save people without relying on his powers. Kaoru informs them that the rooms are ready for a brief rest, and they prepare to depart at the break of dawn.[54] Mudano finds a note from Jin that simply reads, 'I'm very sorry,' as he informs the other students and Kaoru that Jin has slipped away from the hideout.[55]

Mudano and Kaoru ponder whether the Combat Unit could assist in rescuing Jin, but Patrol Unit Commander Masumi Yodogawa appears, stating they will not help. Having already analyzed Jin’s note and investigated the matter, Masumi deduces that this was not the work of the Nerima Momotaro; therefore, the Combat Unit cannot intervene as they might be left shorthanded against a potential Momotaro strike. Masumi points out that Jin is being held by a human gang called the Kanto Nuts and selects only Mudano and Kaoru to help him. Masumi, an old academy acquaintance, taunts Mudano for stepping down from the elite forces to become a simple teacher. Despite this, Mudano's students volunteer to help, forming two groups: the Combat Team, consisting of Mudano, Shiki, Kuina, Rokuro, and Ikari; and the Recon Team, led by Masumi alongside Kaoru, Homare, and Juuji. Together, they set off for the gang's hideout.[56]

Mudano and the others stand on the rooftop of a building overlooking the gang's hideout, an underground nightclub.[57] Masumi orders Kaoru to map out the building's layout and determine how many people are inside. After pouring his blood into a vial, Kaoru shakes it, letting the sound reverberate before placing it next to his ear. He explains that the technique acts like an amplified sonar to pinpoint everyone in the building, adding that anyone can use it as long as they hold the container. Kaoru remarks that the hideout looks oddly deserted, with just a single, lone Oni in the innermost room. Masumi then licks his own blood to turn invisible, ordering the rest of the group to stay put while he reconnoiter the area.

Juji feels useless after observing Kaoru and Masumi's skills, but Mudano points out that their abilities were once much weaker. He emphasizes that they put a lot of effort into refining them to what they are today, encouraging Juji not to let this setback hinder his growth but to use it as motivation to train harder. After ensuring the hideout is safe to enter, Masumi calls Kaoru, instructing him to bring everyone to his position. Soon, they stand in front of a secure door, which Ikari slices through to free Jin.[58] Jin tries to hastily leave, claiming there is another hostage—a girl at the hospital. Masumi refuses to let him go without interrogating him first, but Shiki points out to Mudano how agitated Jin is. Mudano grants Jin permission to leave on one condition: he must be accompanied by Shiki and Mudano himself, and upon their return, Jin will submit to a thorough interrogation led by Masumi.[59]

They depart for the hospital, but Mudano soon notices they are being followed. He instructs Shiki and Jin to keep moving while he stays behind to fend off the pursuers.[60] Mudano leads his pursuer to Hikarigaoka Park, where the tracker is revealed to be Osuke Momokado. Noticing that Osuke is completely alone, with no cameras around and no civilians to protect, Mudano readies himself for the upcoming fight.[61]

They begin by exchanging blows until Osuke, feeling provoked, releases his bacteria to form a Great Scythe and a Kama connected by a chain. Mudano responds by creating his blood umbrella, immediately using his blood archers to rain a barrage of arrows down on Osuke. Spinning the Great Scythe at high speed, Osuke manages to deflect every single shot before retaliating with a long-range Kama attack. Mudano evades just in time, but the strike cleanly splits a nearby tree in two.[62] Mudano provokes Osuke, who responds by hurling the Great Scythe at him. In an impressive display of strength, Mudano catches the massive weapon and throws it right back at its owner. Dismissing the attack as futile, Osuke dissolves the Great Scythe into thin air. However, the moment the bacteria dissipates, Mudano blindsides him with a flying kick, slamming Osuke into the dirt. As Mudano prepares another barrage from his blood archers, Osuke desperately tries to spin his scythe again, only to be struck squarely in the stomach by Mudano's umbrella. Despite the pain, Osuke is exhilarated by the fight; he materializes his Great Scythe once more and charges ahead. Mudano fires a volley of blood arrows, but Osuke bursts through the smokescreen blood-soaked and pierced by several shafts—refusing to slow down. Anticipating the charge, Mudano lands a brutal kick to Osuke's face, sending him flying back several feet. Thrilled by the intense conflict, Osuke forces his weapon to mutate into a Giant Scythe and swings it to cleave his opponent. Mudano leaps into the air to evade the massive arc, utilizing the blood splattered on the ground beneath Osuke to summon twin dragons that strike with devastating force. Osuke collapses to the ground.[63]

Mudano spares Osuke's life and interrogates him, but the moment is cut short when Tsukuyomi Momoka summons three armor-clad knights to attack Mudano while a fourth retrieves Osuke. Tsukuyomi points out that he and Mudano are not fated to fight today because a civilian is approaching, and they leave the vicinity.[64] Mudano resumes his journey to the hospital, only to find it burning and hear patients reporting that they were saved by two boys, whom Mudano presumes to be Shiki and Jin.[65]

Upon their return, Jin is taken to an interrogation room, where he accounts to Masumi for everything that has happened since he left. Once the questioning is complete, Masumi leaves Jin isolated in the room and goes to share his findings with Shiki, their classmates, Mudano, and Kaoru. Based on Jin's account, Masumi deduces that some kind of hidden surveillance ability must be at play. He warns the group that the Kanto Nuts gang might all be killed off if the responsible Momotarou is not found. However, Masumi reassures the students that every ability has a weak point and they will eventually uncover this one's weakness, before gathering Kaoru and Mudano to devise a plan.[66]

They didn't initially get along because of Mudano's lack of knowledge on cooperation, but Kyouya gets over that after their first fight together. As adults, Mudano seems to not mind Kyouya's teasing and even seems to like him in his own way.

They seem to be rather close, with Kyouya even knowing the meaning behind the tattoo that Mudano hides under his sleeves. He also seems to have a bit of a window to how Mudano feels about his students, especially Shiki.
