Profile[]
Background[]
The only child of the Fumizuka family, which has close ties with the Aozaki family. He was once apprenticed to the Aozaki family and happens to be Touko's first love,[2] but Touko does not retain any feelings for him as of the events of Mahou Tsukai no Yoru. He was not a student of magecraft, but studied spiritual matters under Touko's grandfather. According to Touko, when she was still the heir to the Aozaki family, her grandfather was killed by Fumizuka on a whim.[3]
Appearance[]
Personality[]
Despite his gentle personality, his advice is often critical and harsh. Touko Aozaki describes him as someone that is "trained to be living proof that spontaneous homicide is possible", an automated killer that will cut down anyone when ignited, with no need for a motive and no regard for his past together with his victim.[3] However his actions shows care for both Aoko and Touko, offering to run away to Mexico with Aoko if she felt too pressured by her sudden new responsibilities as a Mage and the Aozaki heiress.[4] He cut down his friend, Mr. Aozaki because he made Touko cry, Touko misunderstood this as Eiri killing him because he showed an opening, but Eiri simply killed him because he acted on his impulse of emotion after he saw Touko's tears.[3] Eiri is also shown to be able to understand Soujuurou Shizuki and gives him advice and insight about Aoko and Soujuurou himself.
Role[]
Mahou Tsukai no Yoru[]
Abilities[]
Eiri is a swordsman that is described to have "divine skill", he is talented in the "single stroke" style of swordsmanship. He was able to destroy the body of Mr. Aozaki, a magus who had been infinitely close to being a Magician, in a single slash after the old man made Touko Aozaki cry. Upon returning to Misaki town, Touko is unsure of who would win in a fight to the death between them. When walking around Misaki town he carries three blades hidden under his cape. Although Eiri is unable to use Magecraft he is able to conceal them so that Touko is unable to accurately tell how many weapons he carries despite being on high alert.[3]

Nasu's comment: A staple of Type-Moon fiction, the Priest of the suspicious Church... Although one might say as a warrior-priest his disposition is completely different from Tsukihime's Ciel and Fate's Kirei and Caren. I gave Koyama-san his background setting which wasn't shown in the first episode, and he gave me various rough designs. Eiri is a product of the latter half of the 90s when I was wrote the original version of the story. Back then I was still devoted to the archetype of "transcendent strength with transcendent beauty" in characters. These days, such a straightforward approach is still valid, so I decided to keep his old setting. If Soujuurou has a wild beauty to him, then Eiri has something like a mechanical and stylish beauty to him. His turn to shine isn't in the first episode though!
Koyama's comment: The enigmatic Mr.Priest. He is surely hiding something under his cloak. His design was rejected many times. How about you quit the Church and try Shintoism or something? -I drew him with that kind of vibe. His design was another one that Nasu-san already had a mental image of in his mind, so we just settled on that. It seems that the true role of this person will be told in the story after this story.

型月伝奇の定番、怪しい教会の司祭さん。......といっても月姫のシエル、Fateの言峰、カレンとはまったく毛色の違う武人系神父です。一話では 語られない経歴をこやまさんに提出したところ、様々なラフデザインがあげられました。旧版を書いていた90年代後半、まだ“超絶美形で超絶強い" 人物に傾倒していた頃の産物。いまならそういうド直球の立ち回りもアリなので、あえて旧設定のまま通してみました。草十郎が野生の美しさなら、 詠梨は機械的かつスタイリッシュな秀麗さ、みたいな。一話じゃ出番ないけどネ!
こやまひろかず
謎の神父さん。マントの下にきっとなにか隠してます。没が多いですね。教会はやめて神道とかどうよ?みたいなノリで描いてみたり。 これも奈須さんにもともとのイメージがあったようで、それに落ち着いた形となります。この人も真の活躍はこの物語以降のお話となりますね。 - Birthday: May 25

Q: This is just a sudden thought, but is there anybody that Touko likes? Or maybe, somebody that she liked in the past?Q: This is just a sudden thought, but is there anybody that Touko likes? Or maybe, somebody that she liked in the past? <MADLAX>
Takeuchi: At the very least, Kinoko loves Touko.
Nasu: Whenever I fall in love it’s always a one-way crush, hahaha. Somebody needs to hurry up and invent the Matrix. Now, to give a real answer, she doesn’t have anything serious going on at the moment. Though it seems that when she was still living in Misaki there was one guy she might have been really interested in. - ↑ 3.0 3.1 3.2 3.3 Mahoutsukai no Yoru - Extra Chapter: "A Honeyed Adventure"
