Hyakuya Orphanage

The Hyakuya Orphanage (百夜孤児院) is a residence in the Seraph of the End series where Mika and Yu, amongst other orphans lived together before the apocalypse event.

History
While sharing the name of the Hyakuya Sect, this particular institution was not an establishment made by its vampire head, Saito.

"One day... ...I noticed an anomaly in what I thought was my organization. An orphanage had suddenly been added. The Hyakuya Orphanage. Looking into it, I found it was experimenting on... ...And killing thousands of human children."

- Having noticed the Hyakuya Orphanage had been formed, Saito noted its activities over decades.

Where it was instead formed by the first progenitor, Shikama Doji, it would come to harbor Mikaela Hyakuya, who bore a physical resemblance to the First's son, Mikaela. It is visualized how children were happy playing outside the orphanage.

Details
Located in Tokyo, Japan the orphanage was a gated, two story building. It appeared designed for young children to live in with it being colored green, red and blue on the exterior.

Inside there was an open stairway featuring wooden appearing panels on the walls, and balusters supporting the handrail. Natural light was provided by a circular window.

Overall the interior was in a similar theme with an upper room consisting of a vibrant decor including child like arts and crafts as well as being what appeared as a general play area. The walls and shelves of this room were decorated in winter Christmas related designs, with a pink and green rectangular carpet. There was a balcony area on the second floor used to air laundry.

The orphanage was well maintained with greenery on the premises from bushes to trees. Opposite the orphanage were residential like buildings.

Society
The orphanage took in children some who had been mistreated by their parents and maintained an ethos that all those at the orphanage were one large family. When Yu arrived, "welcome" was written in Japanese on the activity board.
