Tadashima

Tadashima (多田島 Tadashima) helps Rentarō defeat the Gastrea in the Tokyo Area before the virus spreads.

Appearance
Tadashima is a bulky detective of medium frame, and light skin. He has thick eyebrows arching upwards with thin eyelashes and small lips. His entire jawline and portions of his cheekbones, as well as his arms, is covered in strands of hair slicked down. Further; he also has a small round nose and small ears. Tadashima also portrays a set of dark irises.

Tadashima's wardrobe consist of an open white, lab jacket and an unkempt dressing shirt underneath. On top of the buttoned up shirt is a dark tie tangled around his neck. He dons a pair of pants with a black belt circling his waist, and dark shoes.

Personality
Tadashima judges people by their appearance alone, but nonetheless listens to what people tell him before reaching a full conclusion. When he first met Rentarō, he solely disregarded the teen's claim of being from Civil Security because of his age and school uniform, even to the point of asking him to show him his licence. However, when it comes to work, he does not delay or waste time to solve the issues promptly. When he takes Rentarō inside the building where a Gastrea is sighted, and knowing that he spoke the truth when asked for his occupation, Tadashima listens to every command Rentarō gives him without questioning him. Regardless, he shows kindness to him and even congratulates Civil Security's outstanding work; and talks highly of them.

Civil Security arc
Visibly amazed that the reinforcement sent by Civil Security Corporation is a mere teen, Tadashima looks at the boy's uniform and dictates that he is a student, subsequently asking him to reveal his license. After looking at it and confirming that he is indeed from Civil Security, he ponders the company's name and then shows Rentarō to the building where the incident happened; second floor of an apartment building. He explains to the young teen that there was a blood leak on said floor according to their combination of Intel; somehow connected to Gastrea, which shocks him. Explaining to Rentarō that after they go in they will be more certain, he thanks him due to the fact that it's thanks to Civil Security that they now have permission to enter.

Once inside the building, Tadashima questions Rentarō's Initiator's whereabouts, met by a short and shaky reply, Tadashima is informed that he believes he is enough for the mission even without his Initiator. When they finally arrive to the room where his men are keeping watch he is told that two men went inside through the window, but contact with them was lost shortly thereafter. Tadashima angrily grabs his soldier and confronts him for entering the room without his consent. Their conversation is quickly brought to an end when Rentarō puts his hand on Tadashima's shoulder and tells him to step aside. When he does so, Rentarō grabs his gun and strikes the door down.

Several minutes pass after Rentarō fights a masked man, when Tadashima walks inside the room and brings Rentarō out of his train of thought. He tells him that they should begin searching around for the source of the infection immediately. The two look around and find nothing, until Tadashima is asked by Rentarō if the owner of the room they are currently in lived alone. He informs the teen that he did, as he was divorced. The two converse about the Gastrea and the infected, and reach to the conclusion that they are both wondering about freely in the Tokyo area. He is told by Rentarō to give the signal to evacuate the civilians so that the infection won't spread.

They leave the room and head out in search for the Gastrea and the infected. Along the way Tadashima talks with his men, whom inform him that they have not spotted the Gastrea. However, before he continues to look around, Rentarō notices a trail of blood on the ground, sighting a Spider Stage I Gastrea in front of them afterwards. He grabs his gun and shoots the Gastrea, but it has no effect. He is pushed out of the way in the nick of time by Rentarō. He is told to stand back as regular bullets have no effect on Gastrea, which he does. He watches as Rentarō shoots the Gastrea and harms it, which makes him ponder. Moments later, when the Gastrea overpowers Rentarō, a young figure steps in and saves the two from the Gastrea. Tadashima looks at her and asks if she is Rentarō's Initiator. Responding affirmatively, he is informed by the girl that her name is Enju Aihara.

After he is informed of what transpired ten minutes prior to their arrival by Enju, Tadashima looks at the spider type Gastrea and is amazed to hear that humans infected with the virus turn into said creatures. His attention is called by Rentarō when the latter apologizes to him for being careless with a low level enemy. However, he dismisses it and is more intrigue in the reason behind Rentarō's effective bullets. He is told that, since they are made of Varanium, they were able to harm the Gastrea. He takes a bullet and inspects it closely, giving it back to its owner momentarily.

He then questions Enju's eyes that were flaring red. Receiving the answer that when Enju, being an Initiator, releases her powers her eyes turn red. He then watches as Enju and Rentarō converse, only to notice the big wound on Enju's back. Much to his shock, however, Enju heals herself with little to no effort. Rentarō explains to him that, that is merely one of an Initiator's ability, but states that Initiators have human hearts and thus why he must show her the way. Before parting ways with them, Tadashima thanks them for their hard work. When they leave, Tadashima is approached by one of his men, whom he converses with about the Monoliths around Japan and the duties of Civil Security. He takes his cigar as he laughs loudly. Recalling Rentarō and Enju's names, he smiles happily.

A Day of Civil Securities
Momentarily appearing and congratulating Rentarō and Civil Security for killing a Gastrea that appeared nearby not so long ago, Tadashima is met by a dry reply when Rentarō simply informs him that he was not the one who defeated the Gastrea. Whilst smoking his cigar, he admits that he knows it wasn't him, rather; the strong looking figure. Before he can continue talking, he is told that they are different, the police and Civil Security. He is told that Civil Security is here to kill the Gastrea, while the police is only required to clean up after them. Tadashima solely tells him not to get ahead of himself. When suddenly, Rentarō's phone rings, and the latter picks up; leaving Tadashima behind in the process.
