Detective from episode 1, he appears with Detective Fundoshi later to arrest the hermit. He hates J.J. because of his involvement in the case he is in charge of and solves it, and tries to "get in the way" (arrest) whenever he has a chance.

Comedy relief character in this work. His subordinate Detective Fundoshi does not play much in spite of his great mouth, and has a strong impression that he is an incompetent detective. The intertwining with J.J. and Fundoshi is exquisite and is also the taste of this work.

In the anime version, he is a full-time detective who bows his head to ask J.J. to conduct a sting investigation in order to arrest the hermit, and is portrayed as a better character than in the original.
