Mitsurugi Hanagata (花形美剣)

Initially a wealthy, spolied, prettyboy enemy of Otaru's, later revealed to have gay feelings for him. He despises Otaru's marionettes, seeing them as rivals, and is frequently physically abused by them (especially Bloodberry) for comic relief. Hanagata often tries to seduce Otaru with his underdeveloped, rib-exposing chest. Eventually the five of them settle in a somewhat peaceful coexistence and friendship. Has a younger brother named Yumeji.
