Personality:

Takemichi is an individual who has lost his sense of direction. Thus, he has low self-esteem, always apologizing for even the smallest things and crying easily. As noted by those around him and even himself, he only serves to apologize. He also holds a grudge against rich people because he himself is not very financially stable. However, repeatedly going back in time transforms Takemichi into a completely different person. Slowly, he goes from a coward to a man with unwavering conviction. Despite facing insurmountable difficulties, he refuses to back down. He becomes the one who holds Toman together during his difficulties and becomes his unofficial leader, guiding even Mikey and Draken on the right paths. Even during Toman's lowest points, it is Takemichi's unyielding spirit that pushes his teammates. Takemichi is completely loyal to those he considers his friends and fiercely protects them. He is willing to risk his own life to make sure they are safe and sound. This loyalty fuels his determination to create a better future for those he cares about. This is demonstrated through his countless time jumps to change the horrible outcome for his loved ones. In a fight, Takemichi never backed down. He is more willing to be beaten to death than to admit defeat. This became a great source of inspiration for Toman members and proved to be fundamental against all odds. Takemichi is known for having a very similar personality to Shinichiro Sano, with Draken pointing out that they are both "weak with women, weak in fights, but trustworthy". Being an adult, Takemichi tends to address others in a more polite manner. Takemichi has horrible habits and hygiene, as he neglects cleaning his room and becomes accustomed to its disgusting state.

Skills:

Authority: As captain of Toman's first division, Takemichi has power over his squad and can lead it as he wishes. His remarkable leadership was instrumental in strengthening Toman as a whole. Charisma: Takemichi is known by many people to possess extensive charisma similar to that of Shinichiro Sano. He constantly inspired Toman members in every fight. Reputation: Takemichi saw a noticeable increase in his name. As he travels to the past and becomes involved in many rather dangerous incidents and raises his status within Toman, this greatly strengthens his delinquent career, in stark contrast to his fighting ability. As his many exploits and deeds became public knowledge in the world of delinquents, it granted him a high status to the point of being targeted for recruitment by some of the most infamous gangs after the Tokyo Sengoku Period. Despite lacking the fighting aptitude normally associated with someone with such a background, those who witnessed him are quite aware of Takemichi, including many equally infamous and more powerful delinquents, which further boosts his image. Resistance: Takemichi is far from the strongest fighter, but he is known for being one of, if not the most resilient fighters so far. He has been shown to take blows that would have knocked out anyone else and still get back up and even retaliate. Among his greatest displays of durability are, but are not limited to: Being stabbed in the hand by a knife and still being able to fight competently and defeat a much stronger enemy; Being shot in the foot and still managing to run in pursuit of the enemy; Being ambushed with a brick to the head has no fundamental effect, although he has already been beaten to a bloody pulp. Thus, his willpower and ability to receive blows are his strengths.

Skills:

Fighting prowess: Takemichi greatly lacks attack power. His strength and fighting skills are close to that of an average delinquent. He rarely won alone, but his resilience crippled enemies enough to allow more powerful allies time to enter the scene countless times. If the situation is desperate enough, his willpower makes it nearly impossible to put him down and allows him to significantly weaken enemies stronger than him through exhaustion. Takemichi's strength increases depending on how high the stakes are. Normally, he has trouble against some regular delinquents, but earlier he temporarily took down an incredibly strong fighter in his desperation. However, his fighting skills improved over time. However, Takemichi lacks delicacy and technique in his approach, even resorting to methods considered shameful, such as biting. Time travel: Takemichi has a supernatural ability that allows him to travel through time. However, he can only travel exactly 12 years into the past. Additionally, whenever he is in the past, the present timeline does not stop, but continues as long as Takemichi is in the past. To activate this ability, he must shake Naoto Tachibana's hand in the present to return to the past and shake his hand in the past to return to the present. Everything Takemichi does has an impact on the present, allowing him to change the future
