He is easily provoked by making fun of something he is wearing. It is also revealed that Chuuya has some insecurity about his looks and has gone to great efforts to make himself look good through his clothing. He expresses disinterest at fighting those who can’t challenge him, but doesn't care too much about who his opponents are if they can provide a challenge as he kicked Kenji into a wall with no hesitation despite the latter being only fourteen. Chuuya is rarely unnecessarily violent during missions, as he quickly stopped fighting with Yosano and Kenji to negotiate with Fukuzawa, though he can become violent when provoked. He also has at least some sense of morality as shown when he was openly disgusted by Dazai shooting the corpse of one of his victims repeatedly. He isn't particularly homicidal or overly brutal, but he will happily kill or torture if it's his mission. When it comes to killing, Chuuya has the same mission-first attitude.

Despite his haughty, short-tempered attitude, he has always put the mission before himself. This won't, however, keep him from completing the job. He dislikes having to bargain or deal with the enemies and would much rather just fight them. He frequently smirks while in combat and is the type to criticize his opponents during combat. In general, Chuya comes off as an irritable and arrogant character, especially around Osamu Dazai, his former partner turned enemy and rival. He was voiced by Kishō Taniyama in the Japanese version, and by Nicolas Roye in the English dubbed version.


He is a direct reference to the Japanese author with the same name.
