Taketo is the vocalist of the indie band "Pink Punk Gadget" who was financially supported by his former girlfriend, Yuna Tachiki. His personality exhibits significant pride, driven by the band's popularity, and he struggles in interactions with women. After Yuna ends their relationship, Taketo reacts violently. He physically assaults Setsu Sawamura by punching him in the face and threatens to break Setsu's arm unless Yuna returns, using a photo of the assault to pressure her. Following Yuna's departure from Tokyo, Taketo begins frequenting the apartment she previously shared with Setsu, stating he finds the location relaxing. His actions, including the aggression towards Setsu and attempts to manipulate Yuna through intimidation, contribute to the narrative's early conflict.
