02Appearance
Kaigamori is a young man with an average build and slightly chubby face. He has small eyes and sideburns that are long and stylized, pointed toward his mouth. His outfit consists of a long-sleeved coat and pants adorned with a crosshatch pattern. His coat has a wide, upturned collar, with light frilled trims running below it on each side. In the OVA, the trims are changed to stripes on the coat. He also wears a matching beret decorated with small circular beads. He wears a watch on his left wrist.↗
03Personality
Kaigamori is a courteous manga editor, though doesn't know how to react in meetings with Rohan Kishibe. His knowledge outside of manga appears somewhat lacking, as he mistakenly assumes an art book of De Staël is related to a new music band. Rohan shows surprise that an editor like him wouldn't know that, though Kaigamori is disinterested at Rohan's explanation of the artist. When Rohan calls him out for arriving to their meeting a few minutes early, Kaigamori is shocked but apologizes for not knowing it would be rude.↗↗

Mutsu-kabe Hill
Kaigamori meets Rohan because Rohan requests an advance payment for his manuscript. However, Kaigamori arrives six minutes early and is scolded by the manga artist, who thinks arriving early is just as rude as arriving late. Rohan explains that he has gone bankrupt and is currently living at Koichi Hirose 's place, and that his only possession is an art book of De Staël.↗
Rohan explains that for his research about the yokai legend, he bought six mountains in order to stop a corporation who wanted to build a resort in that area. When the resort plan was abandoned, Rohan's land lost its value and he is unable to recover his money. Kaigamori starts to worry about Rohan's mental state, and glances the other way to avoid saying anything. However, Rohan tells his editor the research was a success and begins telling him about it.↗↗
