Naito is a member of a small village.
Appearance[]
Naito has short brown hair and a mustache along with stubble on his chin. He is seen in a black-collared green jacket with a tan shirt underneath. In the manga he wore a dark shirt and a pair of jeans.
Personality[]
Naito was the first person to become suspicious that Shinichi wasn't Mitsuyo's nephew. He, along with other villagers, laughed at Nakano when he described the monster.
Plot[]
Naito is first seen walking with Taoka, where they cross paths with Mitsuyo, who is walking with a young man. Naito asks if he's her new boyfriend, to which she angrily replies that he's her nephew. Mitsuyo tells him to go away after he stares at Shinichi's missing arm.
A few days later Naito is seen with other villagers questioning Nakano about Kitayama's murder. They ask Nakano if he remembers where he was killed. Just then Taoka arrives and brings the suspected Shinichi in to possibly be identified as the killer. They find it unlikely as he is only a teenager, and handicapped at that. As Nakano begins retelling what he saw and what transpired, Naito and a few others laugh at the prospect of such a thing. While Nakano tries convince them that his story is genuine, the police arrive. When asked by the Detectives to bring them to the crime scene, Nakano initially rejects the idea, but Naito assures him that a large group of people would be much safer and that he'll go with them.
In the forest, Naito, Nakano, and Taoka along with the Detective search for Kitayama's body. They soon find his corpse and Naito is visibly disgusted. He looks around and screams in horror after seeing Kitayama's half-eaten head skewered through a branch. Once back in the village, Naito and the others are ordered to stay indoors the next few days and lock up their homes.
The next morning the whole village is informed that the creature had been found dead. It's likely that Naito went along to investigate.
