Guillotine Cutter (ギロチンカッター, Girochin Kattā) is one of the three vampire hunters that targeted Kiss-Shot Acerola-Orion Heart-Under-Blade. It is implied that he is a priest of a certain church.
Appearance[]
Koyomi Araragi describes him as a standard man with hedgehog hair. He always keeps one eye closed and is seen wearing a priest robe with a red scarf around his neck. He does not have any weapon.
Despite being the only vampire hunter out of the three that is not a vampire himself, he has pointy, elf-like ears, a characteristic typically found in vampires and other humanoid oddities like Yotsugi Ononoki.
Personality[]
Guillotine Cutter denies and eliminates the existence of oddities. Koyomi describes him as a calm but dangerous person. While the only of the three vampire hunters that is not a vampire himself, Guillotine Cutter is not an average human as he was able to take both of Kiss-shot's arms.
He refers to himself as God and will stop at nothing to accomplish his goals.
Background[]
He is an archbishop of a "history-less" new religion. The religion, which is nameless, does not acknowledge the existence of oddities. He serves as a commander of the special forces to eliminate the oddities for the religion. Kiss-Shot's literal translation is that he is the shadow commander of the black team serving under the umbra fourth group of the dark special duty forces.
Plot[]
Koyomi Vamp[]
Before Koyomi goes to fight Guillotine Cutter one-on-one, Meme Oshino tells him that Tsubasa Hanekawa was kidnapped by him. Since Guillotine Cutter does not use any weapon, he uses Tsubasa as a weapon against Koyomi. He proposes that Koyomi surrenders in order to stop him, as killing her would be easy.
Koyomi, using the vampire's ability to shape-shift, turns his arms into self-controlled plants and subdued Guillotine Cutter, causing him to faint. After that, he returns the arms as he promised, much to his dismay.
After Kiss-Shot regained her true form, Guillotine Cutter discovered her, and she killed and ate him.
