He had been living a quiet and normal life, as he could not accomplish anything without any magical powers. When he was young, he made a promise to Natsume Tsuchimikado to become her shikigami and protect her. He goes to school with two close friends: Touji and Hokuto. In the first few episodes, shows his strong feelings for Hokuto and cares for her deeply. After witnessing the tragic death of Hokuto, he became Natsume's shikigami to keep the promise he made to her many years ago. Hokutuo's death also was another reason he was driven to transfer to the academy, in search of Hokuto's master. He seems to have some sort of "bad luck", which he considers to be an ancient curse passed down by his ancestors. He is extremely weak academically and is usually tutored by Natsume to avoid being held back a year. Later in the series, the real identity of Harutora is revealed. He is the real reincarnation of Yakou Tsuchimikado. When he and Natsume were born, their places were exchanged. He was sent to a branch of the family whilst Natsume was sent to the main family. Shortly after he gains the Raven Coat tool, Natsume is killed while under the effects of the tool. He performs the Taizan Fukun Ritual to revive Natsume after regaining his memory when Kon destroys her 5 seals. He is later shown staying by Natsume's side as she wakes up, and then kisses her. He tells her that he is sorry, and he hopes that one day they will meet again.
Natsume Tsuchimikado
The main protagonist of the second arc, Natsume is Harutora's childhood friend and the daughter of the main family of the Tsuchimikado clan. She is a prodigal onmyouji attending a school in Tokyo. During her summer break, she comes to Harutora's town and interrupts his peaceful life by holding him to the promise he made long ago, to become her familiar. She is heir to the Tsuchimikado family and is assumed to be the reincarnation of Yakou Tsuchimikado. As a family tradition, she has to present herself as male in front of other onmyouji families, a tradition that was created to hide the true identity of Yakou's reincarnation. However, they found out that she was actually a girl when her clothes were torn apart. She has a Gohou-Type shikigami (Defense Familiars) called Hokuto, a true dragon spirit who has served the main family of Tsuchimikados for generations. She deeply cares about her family reputation and holds the burden of being the next heir of the Tsuchimikado clan. After the incident with Suzuka Dairenji, she is shown to be wearing the same ribbon Hokuto won from Harutora in the shooting game. She cares about Harutora and has had a crush on him since childhood.
Touji Ato
A former delinquent well known for always wearing a green bandanna, who is also Harutora's best friend from school, Touji is capable of special spirit sensing and has a vast knowledge of onmyodo. He realized that Natsume had conjured Hokuto well before Hokuto herself. He is enrolled at the Onmyo Academy in Tokyo along with Harutora, and will usually help Harutora if he gets into trouble. He was a victim of the Spiritual Disaster, two years prior to the story. It was revealed that he had been possessed by the oni which caused the Spiritual Disaster; Harutora's father, who is a doctor, treated him although the after-effects remain. Thus in the end he became a half-oni and now tries to gain control to contain the oni inside him. The reason he enrolled to Onmyo Academy was to purify his inner oni.
