Line 297:
The director of the Diclonius research facility. He is a repulsive, power-hungry man lacking any sense of morality and will do whatever it takes to achieve his goals. {{spoiler|He is from a long line of Diclonius ancestry that has been watered down by inter-breeding with humans. As a result, he has no vectors and much smaller horns on his head. The aim of him and his son is, in part, to replenish their bloodline with the Diclonius they are experimenting on (of which Lucy was the first specimen capable of reproducing) and consequently become "kings" of the new race.}}
----
* [[A God Am I]]: {{spoiler|His ultimate goal.}}
* [[Authority Equals Asskicking]]: A villanous ''extreme'': he will kill a subordinate if they decide not to obey.
* [[Bad Boss]]: Putting it lightly.
Line 303:
* [[Blasphemous Boast]]: "Not even ''God'' can stop me now!"
* [[The Chessmaster]]
* [[Complete Monster]]: In the anime. Has tendencies of this in the manga too, though he at one point at least loved his daughter.
* [[Contemplative Boss]]: Almost always.
* [[Even Evil Has Loved Ones]]: His daughter, Anna, in the manga.
Line 381 ⟶ 382:
* [[Bishonen]]: Just ''look'' at his face!
* {{spoiler|[[Cloning Blues]]: He cloned Mariko.}}
* [[Complete Monster[[: If one believes his one good deed was done out of curiosity rather than true remorse, then he's this.
* [[Dissonant Serenity]]: He performs brutally horrific experiments on Diclonii while having a calm expression all the time.
* [[Even Evil Has Loved Ones]].
* [[Karmic Death]]
* [[Heel Realization]]: Feels regret over his tortuous experiments after realizing {{spoiler|he lovedfelt the clones of Mariko he created aswere iflike theydaughters wereto his daughtershim.}}
** [[Heel Face Door Slam]]: See [[Alas, Poor Villain]].HARD!
* [[Mad Scientist]]: ''Oh so much...''
** [[Morally-Ambiguous Doctorate]]
Line 402 ⟶ 403:
** [[Badass Normal]]: The only person to defeat Lucy. Even though it was a cheap shot.
* [[Combat Pragmatist]]: Ruthless, but not sadistic. Will use ''any'' means to win.
* [[Cool Shades]].
* {{spoiler|[[Disney Death]]}}
* [[Kick the Dog]]: Shooting Kouta was a dick move.
* [[Genre Savvy]]: {{spoiler|She recognizes that removing the mind-control device from the clones leads to dangerous things (See Nousou's entry). So when Arakawa does it, she quickly put it back in right before the clone went all [[Ax Crazy]]}}
* [[Hidden Depths]].
* [[Sunglasses At Night]].
* {{spoiler|[[Reverse Mole]]: Works for the Japanese goverment. Sent to Kakuzawa as a spy.}}
* [[The Stoic]].
** {{spoiler|[[Not So Stoic]]: Stays behind to face certain death so Arakawa can escape with the Diclonius vaccine. Starts crying as soon as Arakawa is gone.}}
 
Line 416 ⟶ 417:
The ringleader of the children who tormented Lucy as a child. Is also the one most responsible for her hatred of humanity.
----
* [[Complete Monster]]: He has no excuse for being so cruel. He just ''is.''
* [[Creepy Child]]: Ironically more so than his victim.
* [[Enfante Terrible]]: Probably would grow up to be a serial killer if Lucy hadn't killed him.
Line 421 ⟶ 423:
* [[Kick the Dog]]: More like '''''KILL'''''
* [[Kids Are Cruel]]: Of the utter sociopath kind.
* [[Karmic Death]].
* [[Oh Crap]]: Just before Lucy kills him his look is one of pure shock and terror.
* [[The Bully]]: You bet he is!
Line 434 ⟶ 436:
** [[Abnormal Ammo]]: Let's just say that heavy spiked balls coated in potent toxins isn't exactly what you'd expect a ''crossbow'' to fire.
* [[Ax Crazy]]: Perhaps the craziest. And considering the likes of Bando and Lucy, that's saying something!
* [[Badass Longcoat]].
* [[Complete Monster]]: THE Complete Monster of the series!
* [[Dirty Coward]]: He gleefully tortures and rapes defenseless Diclonii and normal children, but runs away when he confronts [[Badass Normal|Bando]].
* [[Eviler Than Thou]]: definitely worse than [[Psycho for Hire|Bandou]] and/or [[Woobie, Destroyer of Worlds|Lucy]], and arguably worse than even Kakuzawa Sr.
Line 446 ⟶ 449:
* [[Rape as Drama]]: Does this to Number 28, and tries (and comes terrifyingly close) to do it to Mayu (And probably would've done the same to Nana).
** It's also implied that he was allowed to rape many more Silpelits by the staff of the facility.
* [[The Sociopath]].
* [[Sunglasses At Night]].
** [[Lennon Specs]].
