A 19-year-old samurai youth living at Akanegane Station is known for his distinctive red armor, large physique, and a beard on his chin. His birthday is June 24. Alongside the samurai Kurusu, he undertakes the duty of guarding Ayame Yomogawa.
At first, he displayed a strict attitude towards Ikoma, considering the fears of those around them regarding the Kabaneri. However, he is an understanding individual and was quicker than Kurusu to recognize Ikoma’s value as a fighter. From then on, he became cooperative, and they developed a strong comradeship.
He is also highly observant. By watching Mumei’s combat style, he determined that close-quarters combat was effective against Kabane, and advised Kurusu to bring the fight into close range.
In the movie “The Battle of Unato,” he supports the civilians of Unato Station engaged in track maintenance along with Kurusu, and plays a key role by using the rocket launcher developed by Suzuki to force open the entry point into Unato Castle.
Overview
