Yasuaki Abe no

Оригінальне ім’я: 安倍泰明

One of the Hachiyō, he is the Genbu of Earth. Yasuaki is an Onmyōji, and the successor to the famous, historical Onmyōji Abe no Seimei. Unlike his fellow Hachiyou, Yasuaki was not "born" a human, but created through Abe no Seimei's magical skill, and crafted into his current form through that same ability (in the manga he even talks about Seimei using a Tengu's power to help form him, although this is not explained in the anime). For this reason, despite having the physical appearance of a twenty one year old adult male, Yasuaki has only actually been alive for two years. This in many ways explains his emotional simplicity and naivety, since he has not yet learnt many of the things his companions have grown up absorbing. For the most part, Yasuaki is a composed, detached individual that operates largely on logic and is sometimes perceived as cold or strange. When it appears that Eisen will die if he exorcises the eight-stringed Kin, Yasuaki states the fact bluntly and without any concern because he sees it simply in black and white - to save the Miko, a Hachiyou must be prepared to do his duty. As he puts it - "If there is no Miko, there is no point in the Hachiyou."
