興家 彰吾

Sex: Male Occupation: Office Worker Curse Echo: The Whispering Canal (Shogo's route only) Shogo is an unremarkable young man entering his third year of working in the planning department at Hihaku Soaps, a chemicals company headquartered in Sumida. * * * Born in western Tokyo to an ordinary family around the same time as the birth of color TV, he grew up amidst the boom of special effects-heavy action films, anime, variety shows, professional baseball, and pop music. Shogo graduated from a famous private university in Tokyo, and has since settled into an apolitical mindset —common among those of his generation— with no strong ideas and no particular dissatisfaction with the world as it develops around him. He is content to just go with the flow, having stumbled into his current position by pure chance, and it is safe to assume he will follow the stereotypical path of working his way up the ladder, starting a family, and remaining at the same company until retirement. He plays folk guitar as a hobby and is currently looking for a girlfriend. [From in-game Persons of Interest profile] Shogo is a descendant of Tsuchimikado Seiman, making him a distant cousin of Hajime Yoshimi and Michiyo Shiraishi. Additionally, Shogo was unknowingly born with great spirit sense, making him the perfect candidate to summon Seiman's spirit (the Player) into present day. After the events of The Seven Mysteries of Honjo, Shogo gained tremendous spirit sense and took over the role of Suigen Gamyodo after the original, Natsue Yamamori, retired.
