In the manga, Hiroshi Mitarai is nicknamed Dai-chan or 'Poops' (his last name can be translated as 'bathroom' in Japanese), but other than that he is one of the few characters who is almost always consistent storyline-wise in both the anime and the manga. Hiroshi doesn't know that Shia is a demon and Misha is an angel; but he attempts to exorcise Shia and clings to Misha. Despite this, he works hard to stand up to his family name, but always falls behind Ten-chan on tests. He misses his first choice for education because of exam grades, and consequently ends up at his Elementary's middle school, Misaki Middle.
In both Anime and Manga, Mitarai has an eagle called Jimmi, who he can call with a whistle.
