Zen Touno

Zen Touno serves as the temporary homeroom teacher for Miko's class. Surrounded by a swarm of cat spirits and a formidable evil spirit that warns others not to look, he was initially mistaken by Miko for someone who harmed cats. In reality, he is a gentle man who dedicates himself to rescuing stray cats. The malevolent spirit clinging to him turns out to be his deceased mother, who even after death sought to maintain control over him. Thanks to Miko's involvement, Zen is ultimately freed from the long-standing shackles that had bound him and finally reclaims his freedom.
