He usually refers to himself as "Boku" and speaks politely, though he occasionally uses "Ore." He is one of the few sane characters and serves as the straight man (tsukkomi).

She infiltrated Earth to scout for the invasion, but while disguised as an old woman performing picture-story shows (kamishibai), she bonded with the people and decided she wanted to protect their smiles.
