Arataka Reigen

Who he is

He is Mob's mentor and boss. He is the self-proclaimed "Greatest Psychic of the 21st Century" as well as owner and operator of the Spirits and Such Consultation Office. He used to work in a call center office until he got tired of it and decided to make a change. He's stated many times he wants to be "someone in life." Reigen is only 28 and he has a very complex personality, while he might appear slightly shallow, confident and playful, there's much of him underneath.

Appearance

Reigen is a tall man with dark brown eyes and short, reddish-blond hair with messy bangs. He is also very vibrant with his facial expressions ranging anywhere from attractive to terrifying, and he tends to sweat profusely. He is usually shown wearing a dark grey business suit with a pink or black tie.

Personality

Reigen has few to no qualms about manipulating clients, enemies, allies, and even spirits to his own advantage. Later in the series, he feels guilty about manipulating Mob in particular. The gift of the gab or conversation is his specialty. Throughout the series, he has been shown to remain composed in almost any situation, and he is extremely reluctant to admit to his own mistakes. Reigen seems to be a man guided by principles and is very socially and emotionally intelligent. He believes hurting others is wrong and reminds Mob of that often, demonstrating his honorable and noble side covered by his shady business. He is also a very intelligent man, capable of analyzing a person's psychology fairly well and giving advice to several people, while he doesn't have supernatural powers, his keen intellect and ability to read people is so strong it can mimic, if not surpass real espers. He often acts like a funny guy and confident, being charmismatic to keep up his facade.

Relationships

He doesn't gets along with his parents though they do talk sometimes. His relationship with Mob has changed him, making him a better person. Reigen was about to quit his job and do something else, but at that time, he met Mob. Despite initially wanting to give him improvised advice so he could get rid of him, Reigen hired him as his personal assistant after witnessing Mob's psychic power. After a couple of years of working together, their relationship became close, with Mob looking up to him as a mentor, while Reigen sees Mob as someone he can actually help and support whenever he needs it.
