Tatsuo Saeki

Makoto's father and also the Saeki Shrine's priest. He does not possess the sight to see Gintaro, unlike his daughter and deceased wife as he was married into the family. However, he knows about Gintaro and hopes to be able to see him. He was born Tatsuo Toyokura, but adopted his wife's surname when he chose to become a priest instead of a brewer.
