Kyutaro Kugi

"We could all die tomorrow. Others might resent us and seek revenge on us. There's a chance that we could put others in our lives in danger. Are you prepared to accept that? Then don't regret it."

- Kyutaro to Kazuki and Rei in Crunch Time

Kyutaro Kugi (九棋久太郎) is one of the characters of the anime series, Buddy Daddies. He operates a small pub that acts as a cover for his dealings with the other assassins he encounters.

Overview
Kyutaro is a middleman who helps Kazuki and his friends find work. Normally, he appears as a pleasant gentleman at the café Yadorigi. He has a good understanding and is very insightful. He knows a lot about Kazuki and Rei's past, but he stays out of their way, preferring to treat them as business partners. He is a friendly older brother most of the time, but he also has a dry demeanor that easily derides them when they screw up at their jobs. He is a dependable but unforeseen partner for Kazuki and his colleagues.

Appearance
Kyutaro is a gentleman in his early thirties who is a little taller than average. His hair is brown in tone. He wears glasses, which could be assumed to be for his vision. His first appearance is in a conventional waiter's uniform with a faded black long-sleeved polo beneath.

Personality
Kyutaro has a calm and serene demeanor. Regardless of how furious he is over Kazuki and Rei's unsuccessful work, he conveys it in a very civilized manner. He starts getting fed up with Kazuki and Rei after they take in Miri as it interferes with their assassinations, however he's still skeptical about it based on the information that Kazuki is requesting him regarding Atsushi. Even Kazuki is terrified of him as he looks at him calmly while attempting to tidy up their mess. It has been noticed by Rei that Kyutaro seems to be popular with women.
