Shousei Idera is a towering White Suits ghoul and a devoted follower of Naki. Once part of Aogiri Tree, he carries his loyalty into Goat and later the United Front, fighting through the CCG's major operations and ultimately dedicating his life to serving his boss.
Standing just over two meters and built like a wall, Shousei cuts an imposing figure. His face carries a heavy, beak-shaped nose and a broad cleft chin, and a long scar runs across his left eye, a mark that hints at a hard past. He wears the same white three-piece suit that identifies every member of his crew.
Devotion to Naki drives almost everything he does. Shousei would lay down his life for the man and refuses to speak ill of him under any circumstances. On assignments he keeps a certain courtesy, telling his partner Hooguro that he would rather handle their work cleanly than messily. Like the rest of Aogiri's fighters, he accepts killing as part of the job and knows the Commission could end him on any given day.

Naruto vs Luffy with the twist nobody asked for: Luffy tickled Hinata on date night, and she kind of liked it. We break down the whole fight and commit to a winner....

There are no women on Namek. That isn't an oversight, it's the biology. Why we handed Piccolo the one thing his own species rules out, and why it had to be trap soul....
Kanae von Rosewald hired Shousei among the assassins meant to wipe out the Quinx Squad. Working with Hooguro, he drew Sasaki away from his teammates, but the White Suits were swiftly outmatched and fled once the rest of the squad returned. Back at Aogiri's base, Naki briefed the group on Kanou's scheme to revive Gagi and Guge. Shousei later joined the ambush on the CCG convoy after the Tsukiyama extermination and made off with Ginshi Shirazu's body. When Aogiri disbanded and Naki threw in with Ken Kaneki's Goat, Shousei followed. During the Rushima landing he clashed with Squad 3 and escaped alongside Aogiri's leadership, and he was present for the tense gathering when Naki and Kaneki came into conflict afterward. In the years that followed he stayed with the united effort, minded Naki's children, absorbed human learning to teach other ghouls, and gave his life over to standing by Naki. In combat he wields an ukaku kagune that fires off sizable spikes, and he shares a finger-cracking habit passed down from Naki, who picked it up from Yamori.
