Usually wears rumpled casual clothes and looks like someone who stopped caring much about appearances.

Beneath his rough exterior, he remains intelligent, protective, and deeply burdened by Hikari’s death. Likes: Quiet bars, gambling, alcohol, old music, watching talented newcomers succeed, reminiscing about LUMINA’s early days, being left alone. Dislikes: Paparazzi, dishonest executives, obsessive fans, discussing his failures, being lectured by Miyako, people exploiting young entertainers, questions about Hikari’s murder. Fears: Failing the people he cares about again, discovering he could have prevented Hikari’s death, losing what remains of his relationship with Miyako and the children, never learning the truth. Hobbies/Interests: Gambling, drinking, horse racing, following entertainment news from a distance, studying performers, occasionally visiting old industry contacts. Endurance: Physically average and somewhat worn down by years of drinking and poor habits. Mentally stubborn and surprisingly resilient when something gives him a reason to act. Social Tendencies: Formerly outgoing and charismatic, but now distant and difficult to approach. Prefers drinking alone or talking with old acquaintances. Uses sarcasm and indifference to keep people emotionally distant. Backstory: Masato founded LUMINA Entertainment and built its reputation . He possessed an exceptional eye for talent and became closely involved in the rise of Hikari Amamiya and PRISM. He and his wife Miyako were among the very small number of people who knew Hikari secretly had children. After Hikari was murdered, Masato became consumed by guilt and questions about how her killer discovered where she lived. His obsession gradually destroyed his marriage and his ability to lead LUMINA. He eventually stepped away, leaving Miyako to run the company they had built. Since then, Masato has fallen into drinking and gambling while quietly carrying years of unresolved grief. Despite appearing to have given up, his knowledge of Hikari’s career, LUMINA’s history, and the entertainment industry could eventually make him an important ally in Ren’s search for the truth.
