CharlesLink to this section
Debut: Blackstar.
Charles (チャールズ, Chāruzu) is the pseudonym that Rohan Kishibe gives to the first known victim of Spaghetti Man. He was an American freelance journalist contracted to several news companies who ran his own news site on the side. He first learned of Spaghetti Man while he was taking photos for an investigative piece. He was photographing a town that had been reduced to rubble with nothing being in the photos except debris, but after he developed the pictures, he saw the strange man in each of them. Charles took pride in his good memory but he couldn't deny what he was seeing. He immediately wrote up a report about it on his own site. He asked its users to join him in the search for the mystery man's whereabouts. The article gained more views than any other on his site, but Charles went missing shortly after publishing it.
KanakoLink to this section
Debut: Blackstar.
Kanako (カナコ) is the pseudonym that Rohan Kishibe gives to the second known victim of Spaghetti Man. She was a Japanese university student living in Tokyo who always posted her amateur photography on social media. She had great technique despite her ordinary subjects, and each of her posts got many comments. One day, Spaghetti Man started appearing in her photos so Kanako stopped posting. She had thrown out her pictures of him as soon as she saw them. Kanako had been taking pictures of her dorm's courtyard, so there was no way a stranger

would show up there. Kanako stopped taking photos out of fear and complained about what she was seeing to a friend. Although she stopped taking photos, Spaghetti Man started getting closer to her. She would see the man everywhere in the corner of her eye.

Late at night, Kanako went to close the curtains of her room when she saw Spaghetti Man staring at her from the other side on the balcony. Kanako's roommate ran in after hearing Kanako scream and called an ambulance when Kanako started having intense convulsions of terror. Since there was no evidence of forced entry, the police dismissed her concerns and urged her to see a psychiatrist. A few days later, Kanako told a teacher she would be moving back in with her parents. On the drive home, she vanished, with only her suitcase left behind. Her family devotedly searched for her, but couldn't find a trace of her whereabouts.

By the time Rohan tried researching her disappearance, her roommate and friends from university had dispersed all over the country. In addition, her dorm had been razed as the lot was sold to a private company. Most people dismissed what happened to her because of mental health concerns being common in university students. However, Rohan eventually finds an old lady who witnessed what happened that day. She saw Kanako screaming obscenities before disappearing at an intersection near the dorm.

ChanLink to this section
Debut: Blackstar.
Chan (チャン) is the pseudonym that Rohan Kishibe gives to the third known victim of Spaghetti Man. He was a Chinese university student living in Shanghai. He worked in news and social media censorship as a part-time job. He wasn't patriotic, but this position allowed him better access to information on the internet he wouldn't normally be allowed to see. Taking advantage of his position, Chan started a forum calling users around the world to investigate the previous two encounters. He was able to verify that both "Charles" and "Kanako" were real and had gone missing, as there were strange remains found at their disappearance sites. Their belongings such as smartphones, pens, and lipstick, were all stretched impossibly thin and twisted bizarrely, resembling spaghetti. Thus, Chan coined the alias "Spaghetti Man" for the mysterious man. In a thread with his friends, he half-jokingly said he'd upload a video of him boiling and eating the spaghetti evidence if someone sent him it.

Around this time, Chan was fired from his job for posting delusional information online. He complained that he was seeing the man everywhere and that there were more than one, thinking it was government agents watching him and trying to oppress him. He posted a desperate plea for help online and then vanished as well, leaving behind twisted remains of the electronics in his apartment. Since then, people were afraid to talk about Spaghetti Man, but sightings continued to be reported.

Maurice LegrandLink to this section
Maurice Legrand.png
Debut: Rohan au Louvre (Film)
Live Action Actor: Arno Le Gall
Maurice Legrand (モリス・ルグラン, Morisu Ruguran) is a man that is part of an art theft group, whose leader is Ryunosuke Tatsumi. Since Maurice has exceptional skills in reproducing paintings, he is tasked with painting forgeries while hidden in the abandoned underground warehouse Z-13 at the Louvre museum. The group would take original masterpiece paintings from there, then Maurice would create a detailed forgery. The firefighters in the group sent the forged painting to the Louvre's new storage room, while Maurice hid the original painting in the back of one of his other paintings. He then shipped it overseas to Japan, where his gang members would bid on the cheap painting in an auction, so they can retrieve the original painting from the back. Their plan was often successful since Maurice was an unknown painter, so nobody would bid on him overseas.

At some point, Maurice regrets making money from all the forgeries he was creating and tells his group that he wants to quit, but Tatsumi tries persuading him not to since they cannot operate without him. Maurice then comes across Nizaemon Yamamura's Black Painting. In his state of terror, he paints an imitation of the Black Painting, which he calls "Noire", and then dies. Noire is shipped to Japan, where Rohan outbids Watabe and wins it in the auction. Kawai manages to steal it from Rohan but when he peels off the oil paper covering the back, a swarm of black spiders covers his hand before he sees a car appear which runs over him.

It is implied that Maurice committed suicide as Tatsumi feels regret thinking Maurice died because of him. Tatsumi hallucinates the ghost of Maurice from the Black Painting, who strangles Tatsumi to death.

WatabeLink to this section
Watabe.png
Debut: Rohan au Louvre (Film)
Live Action Actor: Ryo Ikeda
Watabe (ワタベ) is a man that is part of an art theft group, whose leader is Ryunosuke Tatsumi. Along with his partner Kawai, the two would participate in auctions to purchase forged paintings by Maurice Legrand for a cheap price which would secretly have real paintings hidden in the back, which were smuggled out from the Louvre. Watabe competes against Rohan Kishibe for Legrand's "Noire" painting in a Japanese auction. He has the paddle number 9 and raises the minimum bid from 200,000 yen to 320,000. Rohan and Kyoka refuse to give up, so Watabe ends up raising the bid in higher increments again to 500,000 yen and 1.1 million yen. However, Rohan ends up winning in the end with a bid of 1.5 million yen.

Afterward, Watabe and Kawai head to Rohan's house to steal the painting. Watabe stands outside to serve as a distraction, luring Rohan to pursue him. Meanwhile, his partner would go inside to retrieve Noire. Rohan uses Heaven's Door to incapacitate him. Watabe manages to escape after Kyoka screams, causing Rohan to go after Kawai instead. Kawai suddenly disappears after handling the painting, so Watabe tells Tatsumi on the phone that he's backing out since something is off about Rohan. Kawai was not at the arranged escape route and all Watabe saw was Rohan and Kyoka picking up the discarded painting. Believing the job wasn't legitimate, Watabe quickly ends the call after telling Tatsumi that there was nothing on the back of the painting.

During a Japanese auction for Legrand's "Noire" painting, Kawai advises Watabe on the bids he should make. However, Rohan ends up winning the bidding war.

Kawai and Watabe go to Rohan's house after the auction to steal the painting. While Watabe lured Rohan outside, Kawai went inside and shoved Kyoka to the ground, snatching the painting. As he runs away from Rohan, Kawai flips over Noire and peels off the oil paper covering the back. However, whatever he was looking for wasn't actually there. Anxiousness takes over him, as he and his partner just invaded a house and stole the painting for no reason. Kawai notices a black mass resembling tar on the corner of the frame. Suddenly, a swarm of tiny spiders covers his hand. A classic car then mysteriously appears behind him and chases Kawai, who abandons the painting and desperately runs away. By the time Rohan finds the abandoned painting, Kawai and the black mass had disappeared.
