Jii-ya/Sakamoto

Jii-ya (じいや Jiiya) / Sakamoto (坂本 Sakamoto) He is the Minazuki's butler and takes care of Karen when her parents aren't home. He is very respectful to her and calls her 'ojou-sama' ("young lady"), but he also seems to be fond of her, like a father. Jii-ya is the term which an old servant is called (similarly Baa-ya means an old nanny or housemaid), and not his own name.
