Suehiro Tetchô serves as a formidable member of the Hunting Dogs, a military unit dedicated to enforcing justice. His wild brown hair, streaked with longer strands at the back, frames a face marked by three distinct lines beneath his left eye. Clad in the unit’s signature uniform—a crimson coat, flowing cape, and precise military regalia—he embodies both authority and unpredictability. Renowned as the group’s strongest combatant, he deflects ultrasonic bullets with blade mastery and clashes fiercely with adversaries like Kenji Miyazawa. Beneath his stern exterior lies an eccentric spirit. He pairs monochromatic foods—sprinkling sugar on rice or dousing yōkan in noodle sauce—and crunches hard-boiled eggs shell-and-all. Ant colonies captivate him for hours, their hierarchies and loyalty mirroring his own ideals. Even during meetings, he flexes through muscle exercises, balancing discipline with oddity. A staunch enforcer of justice, he demands fair trials and openly opposes torture, clashing with peers like Saigiku Jōno over interrogation ethics. His ability, *Plum Blossoms in Snow*, morphs his sword into variable sizes and shapes, cleaving through vehicles and structures alike—a skill showcased when he bisected a midair plane during the Vampire Infection Outbreak. Survival instincts shine in battles: enduring a grenade blast alongside Kunikida Doppo and battling Kenji to mutual collapse. Recruited by Ōchi Fukuchi, Tetchô’s past remains shrouded, yet his loyalty to the Hunting Dogs is absolute. He challenges questionable tactics, pushing to re-examine the Armed Detective Agency’s framing. His dynamic with Jōno oscillates between friction and reliance, while his compassion surfaces in vows to protect Lucy Montgomery and ensure equitable trials. Throughout missions, duty and morality intertwine. At the Sky Casino, he bargains with a café owner to safeguard Lucy, rewarding honesty with action. When Jōno vanishes during the Vampire Outbreak, Tetchô aggressively pursues Kenji, later conceding his haste. His creed—“evil unpunished and good unrewarded”—fuels his blade, yet literal-mindedness contrasts tactical brilliance, as when he dissects Kenji’s combat style mid-fight or requests pudding amid Fukuchi’s flatulence. Trivia reveals a man yearning for a private gym, who claims never to have laughed. His surname, meaning “end” and “broad,” and given name, “iron stomach,” echo his unyielding resolve—a warrior balancing justice’s rigor with the quirks that define him.
