Kasegi

Appearance
Kasegi is a short, stout man with short black hair and glasses.

Personality
At first, Kasegi appears to be a man with a curiosity (or fanaticism) of extraspecies of various kinds. He portrays himself as a man gathering information on extraspecies out of interest.

This façade is used to hide his true intentions of getting rich off of the popularity of extraspecies through various means. Truthfully, he doesn't care at all for extraspecies outside of the potential money he can make off of them.

Skills and Traits
He has evaded Smith's pursuit several times, being a con artist.

Plot
His only appearance, so far, is in Chapter 14. He arrives at Kimihito's house at the same time Papi is about to lay an egg. He claims to want to video tape Papi's laying for informational purposes, but plans to profit off of selling Papi's egg, as harpy eggs can sell for up to three million yen. He is also given Miia's old shed skin, which he also plans to sell.

His plans go south, however, as Centorea and Miia crash the filming. Kimihito also baits Kasegi by throwing "Papi's egg" towards the Kasegi, catching him off guard with a punch to the face. The egg turned out to be a chicken egg.

Kasegi promptly disappears and is seen back at his own home, furious over his failed plans. After some harsh words thrown towards a certain arachne, the last we see of him is tied up in spider web.
