Hisashi Ogura (小倉 久志, Ogura Hisashi) is a ghoul researcher. He often goes on TV programs to speak about them.

According to Yukinori Shinohara, Ogura is not an expert researcher but a minor one who takes advantages of any information from other sources to shine in the media.

Manga Depiction[]

Personality[]

Ogura is a publicity hound who pretends to be an erudite when it comes to ghouls so he can get media attention. He can be very boastful and egotistic as well. During one of his interviews he sarcastically remarks about a news staff's qualification publicly.

After reading Sen Takatsuki's latest book, King Bileygr, Ogura joined many ghoul sympathizers who advocated for "ghoul rights" as he began calling them interesting and very intelligent creatures while wearing a headband that reads "ghoul lover."

Past[]

Ogura studied at Teihou University, at the Ghoul Research Society. Akihiro Kanou was introduced to him and his classmates. Ogura mentally noted that Kanou looked at them as if they were bugs.[1] At an unspecified point of time, he learns about Kanou's past through an associate.[2]

After Eto Yoshimura's revelation to the public that she was a ghoul, Ogura was asked for his opinion on her new book King Bileygr. He had no comment as he was instructed by the "higher-ups" to not talk about it.[5]

Post-Third Cochlea Raid[]

To get help for Akira Mado, Kaneki and other member of Goat decided to meet with the Great Wheel Act, the human introducing himself to them was Ogura.[6]
