Yoshimura (芳村, Yoshimura) is an SSS-rated ghoul and was the manager of the Anteiku cafe. He tries to help ghouls who can not hunt or kill human beings for themselves. Yoshimura takes in Ken Kaneki, a half-human and half-ghoul, and shows him the way of living as one. Under the moniker of the One-Eyed Owl (隻眼の梟, Sekigan no Fukurō), he repeatedly tried to cover up for the real Owl's behavior. When they had realized that there are two Owls, the investigators began to call him the Non-Killing Owl (不殺の梟, Fusatsu no Fukurō). The One-Eyed Owl is the offspring of Yoshimura and a human called Ukina.
