Kyouichi Mejiro

Kyouichi Meijiro is a side character in Call of the Night and the father of Kyouko Meijiro, who would later change her name to Anko Uguisu.

Appearance
Kyouichi was a middle-aged man of average build with short, dark-colored hair and a stubble beard. He wore a pair of round glasses which would later get passed down to his daughter. His outfit consisted of standard office worker attire: Dark-colored pants with a belt, a suit, and a white shirt with a striped necktie.

Personality
Kyouichi typically had a calm demeanor and was a loving father. But as time went on, he started to neglect his family, frequently fought with his wife, whom he cheated on, and often didn't come home so he could see his mistress. While denying it at first, he later confessed his affair and showed great remorse for how he treated his family.

However, it's likely that he only did that after getting dumped by Kiku Hoshimi when he turned into a vampire. He wasn't aware that he had become a vampire and hit Anko after the lighter she put in his hands caused him significant pain. After that, he completely lost touch with reality, believing it was all a dream. Consequently, he had no reason to hold back his vampiric urges, killed his wife by sucking a lethal amount of blood, and assaulted his daughter, forcing her to kill him in self-defense.



Anko Uguisu
Kyouichi held Anko dear and raised her with love and affection. Despite that, he eventually started to make her miserable through the constant arguing with his wife and his fake smiles. He also became less caring, later mentioning that Anko hadn't received a gift in years and not being concerned when his teenage daughter slept elsewhere without her parents' permission.

Still, he loved his daughter dearly. She gifted him a lighter for his birthday, which made him very happy. He didn't use it for a long time because he was afraid of dropping and losing it. That love later ended up being his undoing, as that same lighter eventually killed him.

Abilities
After turning into a vampire, Kyouichi possessed all the vampiric abilities.
