Tanaka
CharacterTanaka is a bit player in the Lab Arc, one of the kidnappers tied to X's Organization. These days he reportedly makes a living selling crepes. His sloppy attention to detail helped botch the group's abduction job, and he scrambled to cover the error rather than own up to it.
Appearance
A bowl cut tops Tanaka's head, and his features give the impression of middle age. Like the other kidnappers on the job, he goes about his work dressed in a lab suit.
Personality
Tanaka is careless, the sort who glosses over obvious details. When Seba cautioned him that the man they had grabbed was actually Shin rather than their intended target, Tanaka brushed the warning aside. Once it turned out Seba had been right, panic set in over how their boss might react, and he readily backed Seba's scheme to pass Lu off as Shin instead.
