Tetsu is an overprotective, anxious, and high-strung older brother and guardian. He is known for his politeness, soft-spoken nature, and grounded personality. Following the tragic loss of their parents, Tetsu took on the responsibility of caring for himself and his younger brother. True to his pacifist views, he works as a bookkeeper for the Shinsengumi. Although he has managed to set aside thoughts of revenge for his parents' deaths, persuading his younger brother to do the same has proven more challenging. Tetsu often finds himself apologizing for his younger brother's actions.
