The Shadow Organization (裏会, Urakai) is an umbrella group organizing all ability users and those who fight ayakashi and other demons. Originally the Shadow Organization was meant to be an ordinary organization. Yumeji Hisaomi wanted to gather the people who wanted to get away from their families, especially those with brothers to succeed the inheritance. To take in strangers, humans with proper connections. All this in order to form the pillar of the Shadow Organization.[1]

Shinyuuchi Hunters
The Shinyuuchi Hunters at first appeared to be a small, independent but powerful group of ability users that were gradually targeting and draining various shinyuuchi of their power. It was later revealed that they were acting on Yumeji's orders, partially out of spite because the Sousui had abandoned them in the past.[3] Since the death of Yumeji, the surviving hunters had been reabsorbed into the Sousui Faction, though not by choice.[4] With the failure of Kakeru's world destruction spell, the group has disbanded.[5]

Factions
The Yumeji Faction
Recognized as the "true" Shadow Organization, the Yumeji Faction (lead largely by Yumeji Hisaomi) is simultaneously upholding their original purpose of fighting ayakashi, but also resisting attempts at their corruption and systematic destruction by the Sousui Faction and its mercenaries. However, between numerous assassinations and internal disputes, the faction has been largely decimated, and is currently reorganizing to effectively survive and fight back.
The Sousui Faction

Oumi Nichinaga, founder and commander of the Shadow Organization, was determined to destroy it, and was using several of the organization's own resources and ability users in secret to do so. With Nichinaga's death, the faction has disbanded.
