Midori Kohakobe (小繁縷 ミドリ, Kohakobe Midori), is a supporting character in the manga and anime series Call of the Night (Yofukashi no Uta). A stylish and self-assured vampire who belongs to Nico Hirata’s clique, Midori lives comfortably among humans and works at a maid café, where she has become a local celebrity due to her charm and popularity. Her confident, flirty personality and keen social instincts set her apart from other vampires, and she quickly becomes friendly with Kou Yamori, offering both guidance and teasing along the way.
Though she often acts playful and laid-back, Midori is no less sharp or observant than her peers, and she demonstrates a solid understanding of both human and vampire relationships, using her social skills to navigate both worlds with ease.
Background

Appearance in anime
Midori has adapted seamlessly to human society, maintaining a day-to-day lifestyle as a maid café worker in Komori. Her alluring personality, cute appearance, and ability to entertain customers have earned her the number one spot in her workplace, where she enjoys the attention and uses it as a convenient way to interact with potential blood donors.
As a vampire, she adheres to the rules of not turning humans unless they fall in love with her, and she rarely takes things seriously until she meets Kou Yamori, whose unique nature and sincerity intrigue her. Despite teasing him, she forms a genuine friendship with him and joins the growing cast of vampires supporting his quest to fall in love with Nazuna Nanakusa and become a vampire himself.
Appearance
Midori is a petite and attractive young woman, with short greenish-black hair and sharp golden eyes typical of a vampire. Her features are cute yet mischievous, often framed by a confident smirk. At work, she dresses in a maid uniform with stylish modifications, effortlessly drawing the attention of customers and coworkers alike.
Off-duty, she opts for fashionable, slightly edgy casual wear, reflecting her gyaru-like personality. Her posture and expressions radiate confidence, and she often leans in close when speaking, enjoying others’ reactions.
Personality
Midori is playful, confident, and cunning, with a strong sense of style and presence. She thrives on attention and loves being admired, especially at her workplace, where she enjoys competing for the top rank. She’s flirtatious, occasionally manipulative, and quick to poke fun at others especially Kou.
Despite her surface-level vanity, Midori is also loyal, clever, and surprisingly thoughtful. She quickly picks up on others’ feelings, especially when it comes to Kou’s romantic confusion or Nazuna’s emotional barriers. She offers occasional advice and knows when to back off, showing emotional intelligence beneath her teasing exterior.
While she enjoys games and competition, Midori doesn’t exploit others maliciously. She genuinely values her friendships and, over time, becomes an ally to Kou and Nazuna, even if she rarely admits it out loud.
