Unable to take no for an answer, pushing endlessly for Asuka to date him, even using his brother's muscle to get what he wants.

Using it, to break girls that fall for his good looks. He works as the gang's girl-scout, and makes his money by tricking women. Luring them in with dating and later breaking them, so they work in adult videos and entertainment, or provides them as maids/slaves for his high ranked contacts,

Early on he tried to do the same to Asuka, but his charm falls flat, even using his brother for help just results in both getting beat up by Asuka.

Able to get the upper hand though his contact with Nomad and Oboro, by attacking the DSO Japan Branch with a group of thugs and soldiers. He uses Sawaki Kousuke as a hostage against Asuka that also gets her limbs reprogrammed. Training her, with his bother afterward and humiliating her. However, Asuka is able to gain the control of her limbs back and is also able to recover Kousuke.

* Artwork of him is not used in TABA, but he is mentioned.

## Quotes

"*You know, Asuka-chan, trying to entice me by teasing me like that is futile. Seriously futile. I'm used to boring tricks from girls, and if you get carried away with standing me up or something like that, Asuka-chan will be resented by other girls. I have lots of fans, after all. I'm ignoring those fangirls to date Asuka-chan. Is Asuka-chan aware of that fact? Eh? Do you realize?*"
— After, Asuka, ignored his advances and skipped one of his "dates" for her job.[src]
