Majiri Agakura

Majiri Agakura (阿牙倉·マジリ Agakura Majiri), formerly "Godhead Restorer" Riddhe Malacougar (『神祖返』リディ·マラクーガー), is a vampire who surpassed all other vampires in the Other World and attained a legendary reputation as a martial artist. She is the eldest sister of Japan's Agakura Clan on Earth, a dangerous family of mercenaries and killers-for-hire.

Appearance
Majiri is a young woman with straight black hair that nearly reaches her waist in the back and slightly exceeds shoulder length in the front; her hair is adorned with an ornament, and her ears with two large hoop earrings. She wears a short-sleeved sailor-themed uniform of dark hue, the left sleeve of which sports an armband displaying kanji that reads "Head of the Family."

Her large, light-hued umbrella features a black splash design over a grey circle; in the middle of the splash is the white outline of what may be an eye.

Personality
Although Momoya Agakura has remarked Majiri cannot ever focus on a single person for very long, she appears to be possessive of her family and extends that possessive streak toward those who catch her interest by inviting them to join the Agakura Family as adoptees; not only does she extend this invitation to Xiaoyu Lei when de-limbing him, she renews the offer upon their reunion nearly a decade later. She furthermore uses endearing language when addressing or referring to Xiaoyu and Momoya, such as "sweet little kid assassin-kun" and "silly little brother," and calls them both 'cute' and 'adorable'; by constantly referring to her status as sister and Momoya as her brother, she invokes and reinforces their family bonds.

Her threats of punishing Momoya are similarly reinforcements of and reinforced by the family bonds she holds in such high esteem. Meanwhile, her disarming smiles are threatening in and of themselves; they belie the confidence, authority, and dangerous skill she wields with pride.

Other World
Over a hundred years ago, when Majiri was Riddhe Malacougar, her older sister Silk Malacougar was one of many vampires belonging to a certain country's aristocracy. These vampire aristocrats dabbled in assassination for supplemental income until the country's ruling powers ordered them into exile, after which Silk and her peers became full-time assassins to make ends meet.

In circumstances that have yet to be understood, a group of unknown individuals 'abused' Silk and framed her for deeds she did not commit "in order to impose succession" on Riddhe. Riddhe retaliated by extirpating the country's vampire population, pursuing Silk's absolution via their kind's unilateral slaughter. The necromancer Easlies Swordfrail would intercept Riddhe in the immediate aftermath of one such massacre at a vampire castle; with Easlies was her apprentice Corpse God, whom she passed off to Riddhe as a younger brother rather than her heir.

Earth
Riddhe is one of many stowaways who follow members of the Bastard Children of Sabaramond through a hole to Earth. About one hundred years before Corpse God's reincarnation, she singlehandedly crushes a Bastard subordinate organization whose members have been brainwashing children, such as the eighteen, whom she discovers in a cage set ablaze. Sixteen children are already dead; she offers her umbrella and assistance to the two who remain alive. The children, Mitsu Haigawara and Takajirou Toura, will later establish Fire-breathing Bug, an 'entity' of individuals that Riddhe will encounter again in the following decades.

Meanwhile, Riddhe adopts a new identity as Majiri Agakura in Japan and 'adopts' numerous siblings of her own; those who join the family in the latter third of those hundred years include Dalhia, Kana, Momoya, and Yumeji Agakura. Majiri instills within her siblings such family values as a fundamental commitment to family above else and killing as a way of life. The Agakuras developed a fearsome reputation as hired killers in Japan.

Almost a decade before Corpse God's reincarnation, Majiri, Kana, and Momoya together slaughter a small-time group of terrorists that have been causing trouble for more than one organization—including the Lei Family, who also sends its young assassin Xiaoyu Lei to slaughter everyone in the building that houses those terrorists. Thus when Xiaoyu arrives late to the Agakuras' slaughterfest, he ruthlessly attempts to cut Majiri's throat. Impressed, Majiri extends an offer of adoption. Xiaoyu refuses. Since the Heilei condemns its 'useless' or 'dead end' children to becoming t'ing fu, Majiri severs Xiaoyu's limbs and promises to return them only when Xiaoyu changes his mind about being adopted. She tells him her name before departing with his limbs and her siblings.

Ten Years Later
About two days after the Shinoyama estate arson incident, around the time Tsubaki Iwanome and Kōzaburō Arase are leaving a curry restaurant, someone on Shinjuku's streets mentions having heard that Majiri will be arriving in Tokyo soon. The speaker's identity is unknown, as is the specific context for Majiri's travels.

Roughly a week later, Majiri, Dahlia, and Kana murdered at least two people in a sheltered parking lot. When Momoya fails to answer Majiri's phone call, his sisters track him down to a warehouse on Shinjuku's east side. A swarm of Bugs singing outside the warehouse scatter when Majiri tells them to leave.

Inside the warehouse are four people: a prosthetic-outfitted Xiaoyu; Misaki Sakimiya; a mildly injured Takumi Kuruya; and a grievously injured, passed-out Momoya. Majiri severs Xiaoyu's prosthetic right arm at the elbow by way of a delighted greeting and reminds Xiaoyu of what he must do to have his limbs returned; Xiaoyu affirms his allegiance to the Shinoyama Group over both the Agakuras and the Heilei, then attempts to kick her with his right leg.

She crushes his offending knee with prejudice targeted at the Shinoyamas, who have dared to interfere with her chance to recruit Xiaoyu. Momoya wakes up only to laugh at her, risking punishment, before warning Majiri that Misaki, not Xiaoyu, inflicted his wounds. Misaki swings her prybar at Majiri, who catches it with her teeth and swipes her hand at Misaki's torso—which dissolves into a flock of bats. The vampire trick momentarily shocks Majiri; she tosses the prybar back to Misaki, demands her name, and suggests she change her family name to Agakura.

When Momoya coughs up blood, Kana retrieves him at Majiri's signal while Dahlia prevents Misaki from interfering. Majiri unilaterally deems the encounter a draw before apologizing to Xiaoyu for breaking his prosthetic(s). However, she cannot resist reiterating that he only has to join the Agakuras to have his limbs returned. She tells Majiri that they will see each other again, then departs with her sisters to seek life-saving medical treatment for Momoya.
