Tenri Hīragi

Tenri Hīragi「柊 天理, Hīragi Tenri」 is the General of the Japanese Imperial Demon Army, and the leader of the Hīragi family. He will impose ruthless sanctions to those who threatens the Hiragi family.

Appearance
Tenri has a grayish-purple hair like Shinoa and Mahiru, and he has a large build.

He wears the JIDA uniform which consists of a long-sleeved black coat with red details, two rows of gold buttons and a green Sam Browne belt passing diagonally over his right shoulder. Over this is a maroon military overcoat with shoulder epaulettes which have a gold bullion fringe along with an aiguillette on his left shoulder. He also wears a pair of white gloves and the uniform trousers with black shoes. He has a black eye patch around his right eye that also goes over the right side of his head and connects to his neck which along with his right shoulder appears to be mechanical.

Personality
Tenri is best described as a proud and harsh individual. Like the rest of the Hīragi family (with the exception of Shinoa and Mahiru), he looks down on lower houses.

Idealistically, he strongly believes in the concept of survival of the fittest. Due to the weight of this savage principle he abides by, he would see that the strong lived and the weak died.

Furthermore, Tenri is not at all happy with Guren's defiant attitude.

History
Tenri was born as the heir to the Hīragi family. He once had a lover, but she was deemed unworthy of the Hīragi family name. His parents had her killed.

Second Shibuya High Arc
He first appears in chapter 5 at the Japanese Imperial Demon Army Headquarters in Shibuya. There is an expansive political meeting taking place, but Guren is sleeping and snoring. Tenri tells him that he should know his place. Guren sarcastically apologizes to him and says he was bored and Tenri tells him to not get full of himself. Shortly afterwards, Guren leaves the meeting.
