Masami Hirukawa

Masami is the father of Taeko, and a corrupt police officer. He accepts bribes and even takes loans from the Yakuza, but when the time comes to pay them back, he begs for more time.

He says he has no more chances of advancing in the force, and in order to better his family's life, turns to robbing people. And eventually he turns to drugs to cope with the immense pressure.

One evening as he's walking home, he by accident catches "Shonen Bat".

He alienates his daughter by putting a hidden camera in her room.
