Design

Profile

Skins appears in Tokyo. He is a former member of the Counter-Demon Force, and is a battle-hardened man, both in features and demeanor. His face was cut apart by the angels and has been patched together.

He's never seen without Masakado's Katana, a weapon he obtained when he was on a mission with a younger comrade to slay its former owner. However, he cannot unsheathe it. Along with Hikaru and Fujiwara he tells the Samurai of their desire to emigrate to the Eastern Kingdom of Mikado and warns them that Midtown is protected by a powerful demon.

Despite insisting that he doesn't want to add to his already numerous facial scars, Skins is still an active Hunter and has a consistent high showing in the Hunter Rank Listings to prove it.

If Flynn remains neutral throughout the game, Skins relinquishes Masakado's Katana to him after being able to unsheathe it, in hopes that he may resurrect Masakado to lift the ceiling over Tokyo.

Returning to the Counter-Demon Force Base in Blasted Tokyo on the Neutral and Chaos routes has a Undine reveal that he faced Pluto. It is implied that he is the one who got the intel on Pluto Castle and Pluto, who eventually died after returning with the info.

Etymology

Skins' name in Japan, Tsugihagi is translated to "patchwork" (継接ぎ) in Japanese, most likely referencing the fact that his face is held in place by staples.
