Masaru

"Strong means I can carry more people. It doesn't mean I get to decide who matters."

About

Masaru, 36, is a Yokohama fire-rescue captain with Kyōsha / Strong Potential. He stands 190 cm with warm brown skin, a powerful rescue-worker build, close-cropped dark auburn hair, steel-gray eyes, a long angular face, and a visible burn scar running from the left side of his neck toward his collarbone. Masaru is disciplined, commanding, protective, and painfully accustomed to making decisions while people scream at him. He wants everyone alive. Reality has spent years teaching him that sometimes the only available choice is deciding who can still be saved.
