Einosuke is Takiko's father, and he is the one who translated The Universe of Four Gods. However, shortly after translating the book, Takiko becomes the priestess of Genbu. He can read about his adventures and includes the feelings of his daughter when she briefly returns to the real world. There, he apologizes and explains that he never regretted her being a girl, clarifying that he wanted to use the book's power to heal his wife's illness. When Takiko returns a second time and discovers that he is suffering from tuberculosis, Einosuke tries to destroy the book but fails. According to the original series, Einosuke will be forced to kill Takiko to save her from being devoured by Genbu, and he would later kill himself. Knowing from his own experience that the book could not be destroyed, Einosuke entrusts The Universe of Four Gods to his assistant, Takao Oosugi.
