Fumika

フミカ

Fumika serves as the protagonist of the anime series. She appears to be a young girl, although her actual age is never stated. She works as a mail carrier from the afterlife realm of Shigo, delivering items known as "shigofumi" to residents of a Japanese city to which she has been assigned. These shigofumi are letters.
Fumika is nearly always calm and speaks in a low, monotone voice. She takes her job seriously and fulfills her duties even if delivering a specific letter takes longer, such as when she must follow a recipient by train to another part of Japan. She dislikes normal people interfering with her work and often resorts to violence or threatens others with the large gun she carries to complete her deliveries. Because of her unusual occupation and uniform, people generally do not take her seriously when she tells them she is delivering an "after death letter," but she persists until she hands over the letter. The only time she shows any expression is when around cats, which agitates her to the point of losing her composure entirely.
While still the main focus in the light novels, her character is somewhat different. She still appears the same and generally retains the same personality, though Fumika in the novel, for one, hates all insects vehemently and will not even go near them. She loves to play shogi (Japanese chess), though she plays on intuition alone.
