Personality

His personality is really unique, since he is one of the few characters who have inner speeches. He really has a strong reflexion sense but poor deduction skills, since he wasn't able to identify who was his videogame partner on his cellphone. He might seem serious and strict at first, but it is only in public affairs and while talking to superiors like Kuroda, who inspires him fear.

He is interested in pretty ladies, but knows that he is quite old for them and covers his youthness. He stays serious and gives detailed informations while staying harsh on suspects to solve cases quicker, like Curaçao, whom he threathens with a gun, and Kogoro. He doesn't hesitate to threaten suspects with his gun and fabricate fake proofs to capture suspects, although he will free them once he finds decisive conclusions.

Outside of his police life, he remains childish and friendly, and grants respect to Rei, to who he follows all of his advices. He hates celery and, sometimes likes to joke.

Appearance

He is a tall PSB agent, always in his green suit and his red tie. He has white skin and poorly shaved hair, which is always sassy. He wears oval glasses.

Abilities

He has the ability to fire a gun, but lacks of athletic abilities.
