Daikichi Washuu
CharacterDaikichi Washuu stands at the very root of the Commission of Counter Ghoul, remembered as the body that founded the agency and its first chairman. Behind that public role hid a secret truth: he was himself a ghoul, and the patriarch from whom the entire Washuu bloodline descended.
Appearance
The surviving material preserves no detailed description of Daikichi's physical features.
Personality
Little is recorded of his temperament beyond his standing as the founding head of the ghoul-hunting organization.
History
Daikichi established the Commission of Counter Ghoul and led it as its original chairman, all while concealing his own nature as a ghoul and his ties to the shadow group known as V. From him the Washuu line branched out across generations, his descendants coming to include Tsuneyoshi, Kishou Arima, Rize Kamishiro, Hairu Ihei, and Matsuri, figures who would shape the conflict between humans and ghouls on both sides. Counted among the kakuja, he did not survive into the present day.
