Hideomi Iba

At just 29 years of age, Hideomi Iba serves as a seasoned field operative within the Imperial Army's most secretive intelligence division, the Kudan Branch. Originally stationed in Harbin, he was urgently recalled to Japan following rumors implicating the Home Ministry in illicit dealings with foreign entities, tasked with conducting a discreet surveillance operation against the shipping company known as 'V Marine'. Adopting the alias 'Tada' and posing as a freelance crime journalist, Iba leverages his extraordinary photographic memory and analytical acumen to monitor a series of unsettling incidents linked to vampires and the shadowy organization known as the Hunters — all from a strictly human perspective.
