Kita, Michiru

紀多みちる

Michiru has Shinigami Eyes, which let her see a ring around a person's neck that signals their approaching death. She has despised this ability since witnessing dark rings around her parents' necks; they died in an accident after the rings turned jet black. She wears glasses to suppress her power, enabling her to live a normal life. However, following her parents' death, she has felt a numb complacency, going through the motions of life without any drive to achieve anything or even care whether she lives or dies—an attitude that disgusts Shito. As the manga progresses, Michiru develops the will to live and grow stronger to protect her friends.
Michiru first encounters Chika and Shito in her school hallways, where she accidentally trips over Chika's hand. After discovering their secret, they initially consider killing her, but upon learning she has Shinigami Eyes, they tell her she will use her powers to help them hunt and fight zombies, despite her protests. After several failures and meeting other members of the Z-Loan office, Michiru accepts her new role. She frequently bears the brunt of Chika's abuse and is initially called "500-yen" by him because he believes she owes him ¥500. He later starts calling her a "gopher" since she often does what others ask without question.
She is often attached to Zarame, the Grim Reaper, whom she communicates with because she always understands what he says, and he rarely leaves her side. She is very fond of cute things.
