Hina Tenkon

Hina Tenkon (転魂 火名) is a character in the Seraph of the End: Guren Ichinose: Catastrophe at Sixteen manga. He was the sorcerer involved with the Aoyama family. His influence would shape a case where school girls were being murdered as investigated by Guren Ichinose.

Appearance
He had thin long dark colored hair reaching down to his chin at the sides, and even longer down to his lower back. His eyebrows were either naturally, or trimmed short. Hina wore a kimono like garment with long loose sleeves that he had around his hands. Additionally he wore a tall dark colored hat.

Personality
Comfortable with a father suggesting to his child daughter that they embrace in order to give birth to her deceased mother, Hina also stood by as Aoyama attempted to carry that out. His response to Aoyama dying from a slash wound was to remark oh dear. He was of the view that nothing of value can be obtained without sacrifice. Hina's manipulative nature extended to trying to having extremely vulnerable children obey him.

History
Along with Aoyama, he joins him at his house where Mizuna Aoyama is spoken to. After Mizuna cuts her father’s throat for attempting to initiate birthing her mother together, Hina appears to regard Aoyama's demise as little more than a lost opportunity. Speaking to Mizuna that he would resurrect both of them, Hina asked her what she would do. Mentioning that resurrecting Mizuna’s parents and regaining her former happiness, Hina wonders how far would she go for that as he produced a kitsune fox shaped mask. On the topic of sacrifice, Hina questioned what Mizuna could offer to obtain that happiness. Handing her the mask and smiling as Mizuna placed it on, Hina would set her on the path of associating with Shikigami in a plot that resulted in around twenty high school girls being murdered.

Story
After a girl is seen murdered by the Aichi Police Inspector and a police officer, the ongoing influence of Hina is seen ten years in the making. Guren Ichinose helps Daigo Aoyama save his sister from a monster that it associated with his branch of magic. Hina is revealed to have been excommunicated.

Aoyama
A member of the religion Hina was a part of. According to Aoyama, he was the one who introduced the idea of having his wife returned. Accompanying him to his house, Hina would not care much for his rather violent death.

Mizuna Aoyama
Prepared to let this girl’s father advance upon her, even when Mizuna was sat blank-faced at the loss of her father, Hina had little regard for her wellbeing. He was however interested in telling Mizuna that he could resurrect both her father and her mother, if she would just obey him. His influence seems to have resulted in Mizuna adopting similar views to her father, in that intercourse with a family member could result in her parents being born through herself.
