Kumado Minai

Kumado Minai (薬袋 クマド Minai Kumado) is the current head of the Minai line of Mushishi.

Appearance
Kumado Minai is a tall man with tan skin and short black hair. He is seen wearing a dark yukata with sandals and carrying a medicine box similar to Ginko’s. In the flashback during Special Chapter: The Thicket Path, Kumado is seen wearing a white yukata while walking across the field towards Tanyuu Karibusa. Kumado is extremely stoic and is never seen smiling or laughing, although he frowns and glares quite a bit when around Ginko.

Personality
Quite literally, Kumado is a souless individual with very little emotions, feelings or personal opinions. Due to this, he comes off as unfriendly to Ginko after they met, and a young Tanyuu asks Tama if Kumado disliked being around her due to his lack of response too her friendliness. He is very focused in his pursuit of the Forbidden Mushi and seems to find Ginko bothersome, but put himself in danger to rescue Ginko from the Forbidden Mushi. Despite his hardened personality, Kumado is not shown to be an intentionally cruel or violent individual and shows respect to Tanyuu and Tama Minai, although he does criticize the former a bit.
