Rokken Sect
CharacterThe Rokken Sect is a guild of exorcists that, by Seiko's account, is made up of elders. Little else is established about the organization, though its name surfaces in connection with a major exorcism she arranges.
Overview
According to Seiko, the Rokken Sect operates as a guild of exorcists whose ranks consist of older practitioners. The group has only been mentioned rather than shown in any depth, so its size, leadership, and methods remain undefined within the story so far.
Role
The sect's clearest tie to events comes through the Onbusuman Operation, the exorcism Seiko organized. The dashi float hauled by the float carriers she hired bore a plank inscribed with the words Rokken Sect, a detail that points to some degree of affiliation between the group and that undertaking, even if the exact relationship is left unstated.
