Akio Tademaru

Akio Tademaru is a human.

History
When he was a student, he followed his older brother on a investigation in Kinshi-Go folklore. On this trip, they met a female kemono Arachne, Kumi Yamagumonoko, that his brother fell in love with.

Before Shiki's birth, his brother died after losing footing in the forest.

After Kumi came to him after her son had gotten a fever, he made a proposal to her to use her abilities to make money and she agreed as she would do anything for her son. So he decided to pair her up with different types of kemono and creatures from the forest to try and create the spider that produced the golden thread in the legend artificially. At last with Aya born, he successfully created a being with a thread that can heal injury and illness. At some point in time, Lady Inari found out about this incident and blacklisted him. Then hid the threaded Kumi in a pool of water with a few skunk tail cabbage flowers spread near it the outside of it.

As Shiki returned back to Kinshi-Go, he lied about what happened to Kumi to Shiki and the Kemono Office. After they found out that he might have killed Shiki's mother, he uses the children from previous attempts to attack them and fail. With the help of Aya, the group learned that Shiki's mother isn't dead and that Aya's cocoon has Kumi in the pool of water.

Running away in the forest, he met Nobimaru and he talked to him for a bit before an explosion ensued.
