History

During the operation against the Tsukiyama family, Tycho gathers at the Luna Eclipse building alongside Kurei, Jirou Asada, and their followers, all of them braced to stall the CCG and shield Shuu Tsukiyama's escape even at the cost of their lives. While waiting, he muses that he might have had Shuu pose as a model for him. He comes through the ordeal alive and unharmed. Later he supplies a batch of white suits at Ken Kaneki's request, and once aligned with Goat he notes that his firms, being unconnected to the Tsukiyama conglomerate, remain firmly under his control.
