Hint 1: He is president of a company that specializes in handling problems of a magical or supernatural nature.
Hint 2: His right eye gives him the ability to sense magic and the weaknesses of magical foes, but using it is dangerous and causes him pain. His personality also changes when he uses it.

I think the third hint is probably enough on its own to look up who it is, but here is another hint.

Hint 1: He is president of a company that specializes in handling problems of a magical or supernatural nature.
Hint 2: His right eye gives him the ability to sense magic and the weaknesses of magical foes, but using it is dangerous and causes him pain. His personality also changes when he uses it.
Hint 3: This anime is adapted from a light novel written by Makoto Sanda.
Hint 4: This anime is a TV series from 2007, which was directed by Itsuro Kawasaki.

Well, no one guessed. The answer was spoiler[Itsuki Iba from Rental Magica]. If anyone is here and wants to post an image, feel free to do so.

I'm going to post one more image to see if anyone is here. I think this forum really needs to be more visible if we're going to get more players though. Right now there it is only visible from the main forum index, which I doubt a lot of people visit. Anyway, here is the image:

Upon first seeing the image, I thought it was a spoiler[Macross] character, but it still took me this long to figure out who it is. I'll guess spoiler[Kim Kabirov from Macross: Do You Remember Love?] Apparently her hair color is totally different in that compared to the TV series.

Yeah, that part threw me even though the clues were clearly pointing towards that part of the franchise. Never have had a chance to see the movie.

I'm still around (and will probably remain at least semi-active), but just had a busy week.
