Description
Director Ton leads the accounting department at Carrier Man Trading Co., Ltd., serving as Retsuko’s direct supervisor. His Duroc pig-inspired design features rosy-brown skin and an overweight build, often depicted sweating and using a handkerchief. He consistently wears a white dress shirt, green tie, black pants, and brown shoes both in and out of the office.
Ton displays a contradictory nature: he routinely makes sexist remarks, overloads Retsuko with work, and belittles her while favoring Tsunoda—excusing her from duties and reassigning tasks to Retsuko. Yet he keenly recognizes Retsuko’s emotional strain, sporadically easing her workload and offering grounded counsel during personal crises. After drunkenly admitting Retsuko could become a "boss," he implies regret over his conduct.
Despite technological illiteracy, Ton proves a proficient accountant who maintains departmental control even while prioritizing golf practice during work hours. His loyalty surfaces when he defies CEO Himuro’s order to select employees for layoffs, resulting in demotion to a token department. This isolation triggers severe depression, leading him to take a convenience store part-time job. There, he aids Retsuko’s YouTube analytics, revealing adaptability and latent dedication.
He shares a home with a wife and teenage daughters but feels intimidated by them, dreading events like Family Appreciation Day. His excessive affection alienates his daughters, though he openly cherishes them as his life’s foundation and keeps their photos on his work computer.
Komiya, his subordinate, reciprocates Ton’s admiration and encourages his negative behavior while bonding over golf. Ton’s interactions with colleagues like Tsubone hint at longstanding professional ties within accounting, though he remains largely detached from deeper workplace connections beyond his core circle.
