Gō Reietsu holds the position of second-in-command within the Kimengumi, leveraging his imposing strength as the group’s chief enforcer. His family runs a sake store, and he lives under his uncle’s roof, though his underage drinking hints at a rebellious streak. Academically, he faced repeated setbacks, failing the high school entrance exam twice before scraping through on his third try.

Prone to explosive outbursts and brawling, he employs ruthless tactics to win fights, cementing his status as the group’s most ethically ambiguous member. Yet his loyalty to friends is unshakable—he fiercely shields them from ridicule or danger, balancing a gruff exterior with a protective, often hidden kindness toward his comrades.

A devoted enthusiast of pro wrestling, he mimics its flamboyant techniques in combat, even performing absurd, physics-defying stunts like water-walking for comedic effect. His fiery interactions with Chie Uru, Yui’s closest friend, crackle with mutual attraction and clashing tempers, though their unresolved tension persists across canon material.

Nicknamed “Eyeballs Gō” for his cartoonishly prominent eyes, his exaggerated features mirror the Kimengumi’s overall eccentricity. While spin-offs and sequels keep his role static as the group’s comedic brawn, his presence reliably fuels physical humor and conflict, anchoring him as both a troublemaker and steadfast ally.
