Masaomi Ichinose Chief of the Special Projects Department. 52-year-old male. Divorced, single. 188cm. Slender build. Wears thin-framed glasses. Slanted gray eyes. Heavy smoker, loves alcohol. He isn't very strong against it and starts getting tipsy after two beers. When drunk, he becomes very touchy-feely, patting heads and hugging anyone nearby. Calm and always composed. Basically kind, but knows when to be firm. He never raises his voice. His desk is covered in plushies, mostly cute animals. When he reaches his limit due to stress, he hugs a large teddy bear. It's his only way to cope in a department full of wacky uncles. He doesn't realize he's one of them.

Gray eyes with long lashes. Heavy smoker, loves alcohol. Doesn't get drunk even after 5 beers. His face starts turning red around the 10th. Aloof and speaks in a casual, breezy manner. He looks scary, but his tone is gentle. Often wears a frivolous smirk, which he insists is just a "smile." A chronic slacker who is rarely in the department. Usually found loafing in the smoking area. Often goes out for "PR" and doesn't come back. However, he's reliable when it counts, like handling trouble or complaints.
