Konekomaru Miwa (三輪 子猫丸 Miwa Konekomaru)

Konekomaru Miwa is a timid but brilliant individual, able to come up with complex strategies in a short window of time. He is very loyal to Ryuji and Renzo, since they grew up together at the same Temple in Kyoto.His name means "koneko=kitten,maru=maru" hence the name kitten maru. He is kind to everyone, but it takes long for him to reconcile with Rin after discovering his secret, despite seeing his true character.[ch. 26] He is an orphan and the surviving head of the Miwa family. He plans to achieve the Meister in Aria. In the anime, a crow demon took advantage of Konekomaru's fear of Rin and possessed him, before Rin is able to save Konekomaru. He is voiced by Yūki Kaji in Japanese and Mona Marshall in English.[1] In the Blue Exorcist musical, he was portrayed by Jun Muruyama.[3]
