Appearance

A middle-aged man in glasses, Armored Chief Clerk otherwise dresses much like a regular company employee. What breaks the look is the metallic armor encasing his arms and legs, and an anxious, worried expression seems permanently fixed on his face.

History

To chase his dream of heroism, he walked away from his white-collar job and spent the severance pay on a suit of armor before registering as a professional. He first turns up trading talk with other heroes about the monster rumored to haunt Z-City. Later he joins the crowd of heroes who converge on the ruined Z-City ghost town after Tatsumaki upends the area, where the group weighs Garou's fate until King steps in to intervene.

In the omakes he shows up too late to help against the monster wrecking the Z-City police station, since Saitama has already killed it, and on another day he swallows stomach medicine to steady himself before facing Hotdog, only for Tatsumaki to vaporize the creature before he can act. His low C-Class standing marks him as no great fighter, yet he was bold enough to take on a Wolf-level threat by himself, a job that normally calls for three such heroes. He battles bare-handed with his armored fists and keeps a packet of antacid on hand.
