Anime Debut: JoJo's Bizarre Adventure Episode 1: Dio the Invader
Voice Actor: Shinobu Matsumoto

A butler of the Joestar Family. He works in the Joestar Mansion taking care of George, Jonathan, and Dio. One day while he is taking out the trash, he notices a wooden box inside the incinerator and figures one of the maids left it there. He turns on the incinerator until he hears a loud noise like someone pounding on the door. Realizing his mistake, he immediately opens the door and Danny bursts out completely on fire. The butler notices that someone tied together Danny's maws with wire so he wouldn't be able to bark or bite free. Guilt-ridden, he apologizes to Jonathan and tries to console him once Jonathan comes home to see Danny buried. In the anime, his feelings of guilt were removed as he was replaced with another caretaker during Danny's funeral scene.

The butler later appears to bring George Joestar tea, as well as his medicine afterwards. Dio offers to bring the medicine up to George instead, but Jonathan confronts him asking whether he's poisoned it. Jonathan soon declares that George should only accept medicine from a few trusted doctors who Jonathan brought over. This causes the butler to feel ashamed, crying that Jonathan doesn't trust him and the other caretakers to nurse George to good health. George calms down the butler, saying he doesn't know his son's reasons but he trusts him so they should follow his wish.

As they laugh at how scared he is, one of them steps on something strangely "elastic" before recognizing a face.
