Hayato Nakano

Hayato Nakano (中野隼人, Nakano Hayato) is a high-spec human teenager who lives in Kagamino City, a city that has just recently became classified as a jūreichi (重霊地, Important Spirit Ground) because of the incomprehensible increase of spiritual activity and the appearances of spiritually-aware humans and spiritual beings. Hayato is student at Kagamino High School, where he is in the same class as Rikuto Kimura. With the help of Rikuto, Hayato protects Kagamino City against Hollows and other spiritual beings with evil motives.

Later revealed by Jaken Akishinō, Hayato is the current Shinenju, a sentient object composed entirely of memories of Souls that have lost their way in the Dangai. And he is in fact the first known Shinenju who has shown capable of creating their "memories" by using/taking bits of the memories that already exist in side of him. He is a major plot component in the Kagamino City arc in which he brainwashed by Jaken to summon Blanks so he can fill them with false memories in which they are devoted soldiers in his army.
