Toshirou Kindaichi (
Appearance[]
Kindaichi has a long black hair that parted into two, covering his ears, along with a prominent goatee.
Personality[]
Kindaichi is a shrewd person, figuring out that Lala Lai Theatrical Company needed motivation due to its stagnating situation, accepting outside performers for the Tokyo Blade stage play to provoke the actors and actresses within the company and force them to be better to compete.
As a director, he is also capable of bringing the best out of the actors, directing Akane to change her acting to accommodate the script that has changes from its source, and properly explaining to Akane about said changes. Toshirou calling out Aqua's lack of emotional acting in the pivotal scene of his character Touki is also one of examples of his shrewdness and capabilities as a director.
