Sukeyo and later Kasane's manager. He is one of the few people who knows the truth of Kasane's and Sukeyo's appearances and how they changed. He greatly admires both of their acting skills. He begins to help Kasane on the request of her mother before she passed away, and now he hopes to make Kasane into an actress as well known as Sukeyo, and hopefully even better. He was originally a director and he had cast Sukeyo.

Spoiler

Kingo knew Izana as a child and related to her since they were both treated as unwanted by those around them (him being the product of a rape, her being ugly). When Izana burned down Akeiwa village and killed his family (among others), Kingo felt grateful for being set free. Years later, he reconnects with her at a performance and, through her influence, becomes a stage director.
