Mito Jūjō

Mito Jujo (十条水戸 Jūjō Mito) is a colonel of the Japanese Imperial Demon Army and a member of Guren's squad in the Moon Demon Company.

Appearance
In the light novel, which occurs nine years before the manga, she has short shoulder length curly red hair and dark blue eyes.

When she appears in the manga, her hair has grown and she wears it in a ponytail. She wears the standard JIDA uniform.

Personality
Mito is stubborn.

Mito is the classic tsundere Ojousama. She is well-bred, gets riled up easily, and is attentive to etiquette and station.

History
The Jujo's were one of the subordinate houses serving the Hīragi's. They excelled in melee combat and were often used as guards or escorts. Due to the prestige of the house, since she was young, Mito had never been treated by the people around her like a normal girl, until she met Guren. While Guren frequently frustrated her with his snide comments and jokes, she developed an unrequited crush on him due to the refreshing treatment. Seemingly ignorant of the feud between the Hīragi House and the Ichinose House initially, she frequently encouraged Guren to do better and develop a better attitude towards the Hīragi's. She was assigned to Guren's squad by Kureto on several missions. Saved by Guren multiple times, she was immensely grateful to him, and confessed her love to him while she was on the verge of being killed during an all-out assault by the Hyakuya Sect on Shibuya First High. She accepted the Kiju (Demon-Curse) from Kureto in order to save Guren.

Manga
Colonel Mito Jujo first appears in chapter 11. She joins up with Guren and the rest of their squad during the vampire attack on Shinjuku. When a vampire attempts to kill Sayuri from behind, she kills him in one strike. The battle commences. She fights vampires and has her hands full when Mikaela Hyakuya and Seventh Progenitor Ferid Bathory give Guren a thrashing. After Lieutenant General Kureto Hiragi arrives with reinforcements, she is with the other members of her squad and is talking with Goshi.

In chapter 24, she meets with her squad in the Ebina Rest Stop and reports that there was no sign of any vampire presence there. Goshi teases her, asking her to put on a bikini because Guren wanted to see it, which is a complete lie, but he ignores her blushing and outraged response. Along with the other two girls, she blushes after he gives a brief speech.

When Yuichiro Hyakuya enters the rest stop for his punishment, she informs him that that squad has been partnered with Guren since they were fifteen years old. She asks Guren why he lets Yu talk to him like that and asks who he is, and he half-heartedly orders Yu to be more respectful to his superiors. As punishment, Guren challenges Sergeant Shinoa Hiragi's squad to a match: Guren Ichinose, Mito Jujo, and Shinya Hiragi against her entire squad. He gives the kids ten seconds to prepare. Mito approves of it until Shinya points out that Shinoa's squad has three Black Demon Series weapons, and then she becomes alarmed.

Once the match begins, Mito easily punches through Second Lieutenant Mitsuba Sangu's demon dummies. After getting past Mitsuba's attack, she stands on Shinoa's scythe, disabling her movements for awhile. Guren's squad wins easily. Afterward, she calls Shinoa utterly incompetent as a squad leader and scolds her.

In Nagoya, she acts as a member of Guren's squad to kill Nineteenth Progenitor Mel Stefano. A soldier named Kusunoki makes it to Guren, informing him that ten soldiers were killed and twenty held hostage. He expires, and Guren orders them to reinforce Shinoa and Narumi's squads before going after Thirteenth Progenitor Crowley Eusford in Nagoya City Hall.

The Moon Demon Company regroups, and Team Leader Aiko Aihara arrives with only seven survivors from her squads. Guren Squad, Shinoa Squad, and Narumi Squad leave to hunt Thirteenth Progenitor Crowley Eusford, Seventeenth Progenitor Chess Belle, and Horn Skuld while Aiko waits for other survivors to pass them the order to reconvene at Nagoya Airport.

Manga

 * "Your squad? I am a daughter of the prestigious Jujo family.  I am not part of your squad."--Mito to Guren, Chapter 11, "Vampire Attack"
 * "The rookies these days have appalling manners. We need to remind them of their place."--Mito to her squad prior to fighting Shinoa's squad, Chapter 25, "Narumi & The 20-Year-Old Yu"
 * "No. There was a way to prevent further casualties.  You were utterly incompetent as squad leader.  When fighting vampires, if your formation is broken, withdraw immediately.  As everyone knows, vampires are much stronger than us.  That is why we form squads in the first place."--Mito to Shinoa after their match, Chapter 26, "Thirst Logic"
