Movie
Description
Tetsuya Kitano serves as a tactical officer in the Earth Federation Cosmo Navy, first deployed aboard the space battleship Yamato during its 2199 mission to Iscandar. He starts as an aide to Artillery Chief Yasuo Nanbu before rising to Chief Tactical Officer, commanding weapons systems—main batteries, torpedoes, fighter wing, and the wave-motion gun—while directing deck officers and critical combat operations.
After the Iscandar mission, he transfers to the combat aircraft carrier *Hyuga* (DCV-01) in the 28th Escort Squadron as Tactical Department Chief. Here, he fights in defensive operations near Mars during the Grand Reverse interception battle, witnessing conventional weapons' failure against Dezarium’s phase armor—a threat first encountered in the Goruba conflict.
Pragmatic and logical, he prioritizes decisive action. Observational data aligns with an ESTP personality type, highlighting adaptability under pressure and direct communication. Further analysis suggests an Enneagram Type 8w7 ("The Challenger"), reflecting assertiveness, leadership drives, and a need for control in critical moments, evident in his command style and confrontational reactions when challenged.
Interpersonally, he clashes initially with rookies like Ryusuke Domon during Iscandar but fairly assesses their potential. He maintains professional respect for superiors like *Hyuga* Captain Hiroki Shinohara. A key familial tie binds him to older brother Seiya Kitano, commander of the supply carrier *Asuka*. Known for strategic brilliance and strict leadership ("Devil Kitano"), Seiya mentored personnel later serving with Tetsuya, including Domon.
During Dezarium’s Earth invasion and occupation, Tetsuya conducts covert resistance while upholding military duties. After the *Hyuga*’s capture and crew release—which exposes Dezarium-Earth Defense Force collusion—he joins organized partisans. Notable operations include infiltrating the fitting-out battleship *Arizona*, activating its main guns to bombard the Grand Reverse and disrupt occupying forces.
