Menō is a young girl whose father, Kazua Sakura, served as one of Genjuro's lab assistants. Genjuro believed that her hair was of superior quality, making her the perfect candidate for infusion with the Shikigami, a madōgu that controls hair. Her father opposed the plan, but Genjuro uses his madōgu Mugen to shrink him and use him as a hostage to make Menō allow the surgery.
