He was one of Shouin Yoshida loyal disciples. He, along with Kogorou, are on a mission to find their master, Shouin Yoshida, who has been missing for quite sometime, but ended up in a some town where they encountered the Ryouma where he got into a heated argument after he rudely questions the latter as to how he got Shouin Yoshida's guitar. He, together with Ryouma and Kogoru, later on formed a band where he is the band's bass player. He is ill-tempered, pessimistic, and often cusses a lot. Despite this, he is actually a dedicated person who cares for his friends and his master, Shouin Yoshida. Ryouma calls him "Cindy" because he thinks that his name was too cordial, much to his chagrin.
