Description
Howaito, known in some versions as Mr. White, is an elderly man who owns the Shop of Wonders. This seemingly modest establishment is of great significance as it houses the Transdimensional Portal, a gateway between Earth and the world of Quarton. Howaito himself admits that his shop is not very successful, having had no customers for months, which adds to his unassuming and quiet presence. His personality is marked by a secretive and mysterious nature, often speaking in riddles and revealing information only when he deems the time is right.
Regarding his background, Howaito has a deeper connection to Quarton than he initially lets on. He has mentioned that he once traveled to Quarton himself, a journey that few have undertaken. During that time, he was given a silver core brick and the Portal Weapon, which is linked to the Transdimensional Portal. These items were entrusted to him by Guardian Boreas, a powerful figure from Quarton, establishing Howaito as a chosen custodian of the portal’s secrets.
In the story, Howaito serves as a mentor and guide to the main protagonists. The young heroes frequently come to him with questions about the strange events occurring on Earth, such as brickification, and about the nature of their enemies. Howaito consistently has answers for them, demonstrating his extensive knowledge of Quartonian history and technology. For instance, when brickification occurred, he knew how to temporarily fix the problem, proving that his understanding is both practical and profound. His primary motivation appears to be the protection of both Earth and Quarton, a duty he fulfills by aiding the Tenkai Knights from behind the scenes.
Howaito’s key relationships are primarily with the young heroes and with the legacy of Guardian Boreas. He acts as a link to the past, possessing artifacts and wisdom from a previous era of conflict. His development throughout the series is subtle, as he gradually reveals more about his own past, such as his prior voyage to Quarton. He does not undergo a major personality shift but rather becomes more forthcoming with crucial information as the stakes escalate. His notable abilities are not combat-oriented; instead, his power lies in his profound knowledge, his guardianship of the Transdimensional Portal, and his ability to operate and maintain its associated technology, such as the Portal Weapon.
