Takuma Ichijo

Japanese name:

一条 拓麻

Takuma Ichijo is the vice-president of the Night Class. He is a noble-class vampire nearly as powerful as Kaname, whom he is close to and respects. With his cheerful and enthusiastic demeanor, Ichijo appears very "un-vampire like", lacking the dark atmosphere that surrounds most vampires and making him appear more like a human. Ichijo maintains a close friendship with Senri Shiki. Ichijo is ordered by his grandfather Asato Ichijo to spy on Kaname while attending Cross Academy but refuses out of loyalty for his friend.

When Senri Shiki is possessed by Rido Kuran, Ichijo is forced to go against Kaname in order to protect his friends. Once Shiki is freed from Rido's possession, Ichijo rejoins Kaname's side and stops Kaname from killing his grandfather, instead asking that he be the one to handle the issue. It appears that Ichijo intended to end his life along with his grandfather. Takuma was discovered unconscious afterwards by Sara Shirabuki, who said that she always wanted "to have" Takuma.

Following the year time leap, Takuma remains at Sara Shirabuki's side and for unknown reasons he decided not to return to Kaname. He currently poses as Sara's brother at the elite school she is scouting.
