Kirin Jodo

Kirin Shoudou (浄堂麒麟, Jōdō Kirin) is a haughty psychic and the President of the Sun Psychic Union.

Appearance
Shoudou is balding on the top of his head and combs his remaining hair over the spot. He also appears to have angry, sunken in eyes that are very circular, along with a perpetually pinched expression. His forehead and the space between his (nonexistent) eyebrows are both very wrinkled. He also wears robes and several necklaces around his neck. Generally, he appears with bodyguards flanking him.

Personality
Shoudou seems to think of himself as a great psychic, which appears to have made him vain. He refers to himself as a very powerful man and is enraged when he learns Reigen punched him in the face when he was possessed by Mogami's spirit. He also seems very petty and fears being eclipsed by other psychics. Because of this, he attempted to destroy Arataka Reigen's career through public humiliation on television.

History
Shoudou seems to have established himself as a psychic and rose to power after establishing the Sun Psychic Union.

Plot
Shoudou was one of the many psychics called to the Asagiri home to assist in the exorcism of Keiji Mogami from Minori Asagiri's body. He was flanked by bodyguards and seemed to be greatly respected by the other psychics who were called. During the exorcism he was incapable of doing anything against Mogami's spirit and recognized just how powerful it was. However, he was also possessed by Mogami and Reigen punched him so as to cause harm to the evil spirit using his body. However, Shoudou continued to hold a grudge against Reigen long after. Because of this, he decided to ruin Reigen's career as a psychic through public humiliation on television. He set up a fake televised exorcism and watched as Reigen attempted to entertain the crowd through a fake exorcism, before standing to tell them that there had been no spirit all along. This damages Reigen greatly and satisfies Shoudou.

Powers & Abilities
Like many other self-proclaimed psychics, Shoudou possesses no special abilities. However he was able to produce a noticeable aura in his ultimately fruitless attempt to exorcise Keiji Mogami from Minori Asagiri's body.
