Summary
Ginko works as a mushishi, a Mushi master who travels from location to location to study Mushi and assist those afflicted by the troubles they cause. He is a rare individual who naturally attracts Mushi, a trait that necessitates his wandering lifestyle; remaining in one spot for too long would accumulate a potentially hazardous number of them. To help keep Mushi at bay, he smokes constantly. In terms of personality, Ginko is generally laid back, though he becomes intensely serious when it comes to shielding people from Mushi-related dangers. He frequently emphasizes that Mushi are not evil entities, but simply exist as part of nature, striving to survive just like any other living being.
