== Appearance ==
Takamura appears as a petite, delicate elderly man with smoothly combed-back hair and perpetually closed eyes. Similar to his fellow male associates in the organization, Takamura dons a dark suit paired with a white button-up shirt. His katana is frequently observed in his possession, serving as a support when he takes a seat.
== Personality ==
Takmura is a very cold and quiet elderly man who prefers to whisper in his words. Making practically no expression in most of his appearances, he only intends to harm those who have malicious objectives, including targeting him. Despite his very old age, his instincts are extremely sharp, as shown when he is capable of cleaving a fly passing by in half out of reaction. Outside of enemies, he does have heroic intentions to assist in Taro Sakamoto, another assassin, to prevent the Tokyo Tower from crumbling.
== Abilities ==
Even at an old age, he is still deemed as a very dangerous barrier that may block his goal of bringing down the JAA, leading Slur to wish for his demise. Slur conjectured that Gaku might be the sole individual capable of surviving a confrontation with Takamura, underscoring the latter's strength.
* Master Swordsman: As a swordsman assassin, Takamura's swordsmanship is so incredibly high that he could easily counter any of his battles so far despite having his eyes closed with his superhuman prowess. Despite the standard length of the katana, his slashes cover an extensive range, frequently annihilating everything in their vicinity. Kashima remarked on the impeccable precision of Takamura's cuts, as evidenced by the vitality retained in the muscle cells of Gaku's severed limb, a testament to the cleanliness of Takamura's swordsmanship.
* Superhuman Speed and Reflexes: His velocity with the use of his sword is so extraordinary that observers can hardly register the swift slashes he executes. Additionally, he can unsheathe and cut with such rapidity that it gives the illusion of his katana being only partially drawn. Takamura demonstrated remarkable speed by halting bullets fired at him from point-blank range by employing his katana.
