Description
Exorcist is a main character from the short-form comedy fantasy anime that aired in 2014. She holds the official position of section chief of the Hokkaido Public Safety Ghost Extermination Division, which is colloquially known as the Undead Countermeasures Section. In this capacity, her primary responsibility is to protect the Hokkaido region from supernatural threats, including zombies and other restless spirits. She is portrayed as a young girl who is dedicated to her work of fighting against the undead.
In terms of personality, Exorcist is characterized by a persistent and somewhat desperate determination. She is constantly on the chase, specifically pursuing the undead idol Francesca. This pursuit, however, is rarely rewarding. Francesca largely ignores Exorcist, a dynamic that leaves Exorcist feeling unhappy and frustrated, though she still considers the zombie her rival. Her role in the story often puts her in the position of a long-suffering straight woman, as she is frequently the one who ends up with the short end of the stick due to her efforts. The situations she encounters are often absurd, and she is depicted as a character who must react to the chaotic events unfolding around her.
Her primary motivation is to fulfill her duties as an exorcist by eradicating the zombie infestation plaguing the land. While she can handle certain threats, such as the perverted poet Takuboku Ishikawa, she finds herself outmatched when faced with more powerful enemies like the resurrected Shinsengumi. This forces her to rely on outside help, leading to her most significant relationship in the story. She is compelled to work alongside Francesca, the very zombie she is chasing, and Francesca's dog, Franken, forming an unlikely alliance out of necessity. This relationship is further complicated by the fact that she has problems dealing with the dog, Franken, adding another layer of difficulty to her endeavors.
Regarding her development, Exorcist serves as the active agent driving the plot against the undead. She is the one who fights to stop the ambitions of characters like Toshizō Hijikata and works to solve the zombie crisis. As for her abilities, she is depicted as a capable fighter against supernatural creatures, successfully handling lesser undead beings on her own. However, the story also makes it clear that she has limitations, as she is not powerful enough to defeat the strongest enemies by herself and consequently requires the assistance of Francesca. No further information is available regarding any specific techniques or powers she may possess.
