Kanade Uryu

Kanade Uryū is a handsome, wealthy, intelligent teenager; a traumatized boy who could not survive the loss; a man who turned pain into an ideology; a strategist who considers people to be tools; a hero who is actually a murderer; the one who wants to save the world, but does not respect its inhabitants; a man trying to become God in order not to be a man.

Its essence can be expressed as follows: Kanade wants to save the world not because he loves people, but because he can no longer endure the existence of a world in which people are able to lose those they love. The main tragedy is that he seeks to destroy suffering, but he himself becomes a source of suffering for others. His love turns into control, his care into violence, his dream into tyranny.

He is alive because behind the mask of the Metropolitan there is not a flawless hero or a cold villain, but a frightened sixteen-year-old boy who still does not know how to cope with his pain.

Enemies

Enemies of Kanade: Mirai Kakehashi (the main opponent), other candidates for the role of God, people who can destroy his public image, those who remind him of his own helplessness, any uncontrollable circumstances. It is not the strongest, but the most unpredictable enemy that is especially dangerous for him.

Colleagues at work

In the role of Metropoliman, Kanade has no colleagues in the classical sense. He works alone, using media, social media, manipulated people, and his supernatural powers. If there are "employees", these are temporary tools that he discards after use.

Job

Kanade's main activities are: studying (a mandatory social role), maintaining the image of the Metropolisman, hunting for candidates, gathering information, planning strategies, eliminating threats.

Romantic Experience

Canade's canonically romantic experience is not shown. According to the fan interpretation, he had almost no real experience. He perceived confessions as an interest in status or appearance. He is cautious and distrustful, he can observe a person for a long time before recognizing interest. When falling in love, he becomes jealous and controlling, confusing care with control. He would most likely replace the phrase "I love you" with "I won't let you disappear."

Meiza Meiza's

Angel - The angel who chose Kanade as his candidate. He trusts her more than people, considers her not a tool, but a partner. They agree on the main thing: it is necessary to eliminate other candidates. He can be more honest with her than with people. Probably, he respects her opinion and is afraid of losing her.

Kanade has no real friends. His entourage: the angel of Maze (the closest "partner"), possible manipulated allies, subordinates, people useful for achieving goals. In a company, he usually speaks less than others, controls the course of the conversation, remembers details, and discreetly evaluates everyone.

At the Joso Academy, Kanade is the "perfect student": brilliant grades, impeccable manners, cold politeness, detachment, and social superiority. Teachers perceive him as a talented, but difficult student. Classmates feel the distance. He does not enter into friendly relations, but enjoys respect and hidden fear.

Kanade's room is spacious, almost devoid of personal decorations. It is dominated by white, gray and dark blue colors. In the room there is a large desk, closed cabinets, a chessboard, several monitors, a safe, shelves with books, a collection of clocks, a high-quality audio system, one living plant, a photo or an item related to the sister (hidden). In one drawer of the desk there is a jumbled collection of small memories that no one should touch.

The general condition is physically healthy. The physique is slender and athletic. Endurance is above average. Serious diseases have not been confirmed. Allergies are not confirmed. Psychological state: chronic emotional stress, complicated experience of loss, tendency to suppress feelings. Sleep is shallow, with awakenings; Sometimes he falls asleep with the light on. Eating is irregular during periods of stress. He is distrustful of doctors, he prefers to control medical information on his own.

Pets

are not shown in the canon. Probably, he does not keep it because of his unwillingness to get attached. If I did, I would choose a raven or a white cat (fan version).

What him off in himself

Inability to return to the past, fear of loss, moments of weakness, emotional dependence, jealousy, desire for approval, need for others, inability to fully control feelings.

What him off in people

Irresponsibility, lies without a purpose, complaints instead of actions, hypocrisy, voluntary weakness, ostentatious self-sacrifice, attempts to evoke pity, betrayal, interference in personal life, inability to accept the consequences of their decisions.

How to cope with stress

First, he turns an emotional problem into a technical one, makes a plan. If this does not help, he goes for a walk at night, trains until he is exhausted, listens to classical music, puts the room in order, is left alone, refuses to talk about feelings.

Life goal

To become a god, to return a sister, to create a perfect world without suffering.

Financial situation

Extremely high. Access to the resources of the family corporation Joso Industries. It does not experience material limitations.

Kanade eats carefully, in small portions, prefers high-quality, simple food. He does not like too fatty, sweet, heavy foods. When stressed, he forgets to eat, replaces food with coffee. He may not finish eating if the conversation does not go according to plan. He rarely eats in company, does not drink sweet tea, loves dark chocolate.

Bad habits: excessive coffee consumption, lack of sleep, suppression of emotions, working to exhaustion, refusal to help, obsessive checking of information, desire to control everything, inability to throw away things related to the sister.

Attitude to alcohol and substances Canade treats

alcohol coldly and cautiously: she does not like to lose control. He categorically rejects narcotic substances, considers addiction a form of slavery. Probably never tried anything like this on principle.

What he keeps as a memory

He keeps his sister's old hairpin, a small photo, a child's note, a ticket from the last walk together, a broken keychain, a book they read together, old messages (he does not reread them in public).

Favorite time of day

Late evening, turning into night. A time when the city calms down, and he can be alone.

Attitude to the weather

Likes cold rain and clear frosty nights. He does not like sweltering heat. The thunderstorm evokes contradictory feelings: it is afraid, but fascinated by the lightning.

Attitude to social networks

Personally almost does not use. It is used as a tool of influence and analysis. He does not publish personal photos, monitors reactions, creates an image of the hero. He is annoyed by people who reveal their personal life for the sake of attention.

Attitude to sports

Prefers individual sports: fencing, shooting, swimming, short-distance running, chess as an intellectual competition. He does not like team sports: dependence on other people's mistakes annoys him.

Transportation

Usually he travels in a car with a driver or in an expensive premium car. In the image of Metropoliman, he uses wings. He does not like public transport.

Note: This is an artistic interpretation, not a clinical diagnosis. In Kanade, one can distinguish emotional suppression, signs of a complicated experience of loss, an obsessive need to control the situation, difficulties with trust, a tendency to emotional isolation, inflated self-esteem as a defense mechanism, the dependence of self-perception on superiority over others, the inability to calmly accept uncertainty, the tendency to justify aggression with ideology, fixation on loss, and a painful rejection of imperfection.

Phobias: fear of death of loved ones, fear of powerlessness, fear of loss of control, fear of public humiliation, fear of dependence on others, fear of being ordinary, hidden fear of loneliness, as well as (fan detail) fear of the smell of antiseptic and closed hospital rooms.

Kanade's secret is that his "heroism" is a cover for hunting candidates. He also hides his sister's body and her death. His greatest mystery is not the actions themselves, but the feelings behind them: fear, guilt, despair.

The internal conflict is between the desire to save the world and the inability to trust people, between the idea of "ideal order" and the inability to accept freedom, between the role of the hero and the essence of the manipulator.

Contradiction: He wants the world to be happy, but he doesn't ask the world what he wants. He loves, but suffocates. He saves, but kills. He is a hero and a murderer at the same time.

What makes him alive are the everyday trifles that break his "ideal" image, moments of weakness when the mask falls, his inability to cope with emotions, sincere, albeit distorted, love, fear that he cannot completely hide. He may be remembered because he is a tragedy, not just a villain. He shows how pain and the inability to accept loss turn an intelligent, talented person into someone who sows suffering.

In the canon, he almost does not change, remaining convinced of his rightness to the end. In an expanded interpretation, it is possible to show how his beliefs crack when confronted by Mirai, who refuses to play by his rules. He loses his sister (in the past), dignity (before death), the illusion of his own greatness, and potentially faith in his rightness. He finds an understanding that force does not equal rightness, a possible redemption (in an alternative interpretation) or a final fall.

In canon, he dies, begging for mercy, demonstrating that a frightened teenager was hiding behind the mask of Metropoliman. In an expanded interpretation, the path to redemption is possible. The main theme of his story is a man who tries to become God in order not to be a man. His story is about how unexperienced pain turns love into violence, and the dream of salvation into tyranny.

Small habits: checks the time, even when he knows it; adjusts the cuff before an important conversation; sits down so that he can see the entrance; does not leave the phone screen up; re-reads messages before sending; wipes his hands after shaking hands; taps his finger on the surface when irritated; wakes up before the alarm clock; keeps things in strict order.

A typical Kanade day begins with getting up early (before the alarm clock), checking messages and news. Then he goes to the Joso Academy, after studying he analyzes the activity of other candidates, trains, and works on strategy. It is possible to come out in the form of Metropoliman. In the evening, he spends time watching hours or chess, listens to music, and goes to bed late.

Favorite food: high-quality steak, sushi, cold noodles, dark chocolate, minimalistic dishes with a bright taste. Favorite drinks are black coffee without sugar, white tea, mineral water.

His favorite place is a balcony overlooking Tokyo at night or a quiet café where no one knows him. He rests with chess, night walks, classical music, collecting watches, and occasional reading.

Hobbies: chess, fencing, shooting, night photography of Tokyo, collecting mechanical clocks, studying architecture, playing the piano (only alone).

In everyday life, he is annoyed by clutter, wet sleeves, other people's towels, cheap alarm clocks, too sweet tea when the furniture in his room is rearranged, loud noises.

In his free time, he analyzes, plans, observes. He can sit for hours with a chessboard or look at the city. He rarely really relaxes. When he is alone, he takes off his mask, can play the piano, reread old records, talk to his sister in his mind, fall asleep with the lights on after painful memories.

His favorite music is classical, neoclassical, minimalist piano music, works that remind him of his sister. His favorite books are biographies of historical rulers, books on strategy, psychology, politics, and rarely classical literature. His favorite movie is probably movies about superheroes — especially the series about Metropoliman, from which he copied his image.

Kanade first reacts to stress with analysis: he turns an emotional problem into a technical task — a plan, exits, weaknesses. If this does not help, he goes for a walk at night, trains until he is exhausted, turns on classical music, puts the room in order, refuses to talk about feelings.

He reacts to the threat with concentration: he evaluates, prepares a counterattack. He's not panicking — he's planning. But if the threat affects his loved ones, his actions may become less rational.

In a quarrel, he is cold, sarcastic, destroys with words. He does not shout, but every word hits the weak point. He can leave the conversation if he considers it meaningless. He prefers a conversation if he is in control of the situation, but if a conflict is inevitable, he will enter into it only if there is an advantage.

He almost does not know how to apologize: a sincere apology for him is a confession of weakness. He would rather correct the mistake with action than say "I'm sorry". He does not know how to forgive: he keeps offenses for a long time and pays for them. Forgiveness for him is an inadmissible luxury. He is very vindictive, remembers every humiliation, every betrayal, every little thing. Revenge can be postponed, but not canceled.

He takes defeat hard: it is a blow to the entire structure of his personality. He can withdraw for a while, become even colder, and then begin to work out a plan for revenge. He perceives injustice as confirmation that the world needs a strong ruler. She makes him angry, but not surprised.

When Kanade can't cope at all, he can show his hidden cowardice: start panicking, begging, offering deals. This was the case in the canon in the face of death. His "mask of power" falls and a frightened sixteen-year-old boy is exposed.

Kanade's main fear is to lose a loved one again and be helpless again. This is not the fear of death, but of powerlessness in the face of it. He is afraid of loneliness, although he will never admit it. His loneliness is chosen, but not desired. He is afraid of being alone, but does not know how to build close relationships.

He is absolutely afraid of losing control: for him it is tantamount to disaster. Therefore, he tries to control everything: from plans to emotions. He is also afraid of being rejected, especially by those who are dear to him, but does not show it: the fear of rejection hides behind arrogance.

His biggest dream is to get his sister back and create a world where no one suffers the way he did. The secret dream is to live an ordinary, quiet life in which he does not need to be strong. This dream is so deeply hidden that he himself does not know about it. The goal of his whole life is to become God, to fix the world, to return his sister.

He would like to change the moment in his fate when he pushed his sister. If he could go back in time, he would change just that. He is afraid to admit to himself that his plan may not work, that his sister may not want to be returned, that his ideal world is a form of selfishness, that he himself needs love and understanding.

He is inspired to move on by the image of his sister in a cryochamber, the conviction that he is right, the possibility of power, the belief that he can fix everything.

Kanade's daily activities include studying at the Joso Academy, maintaining the image of the Metropolitan, finding and analyzing other candidates, planning strategies, training (fencing, shooting), and visiting her sister.

He takes his studies seriously. He is an excellent student not because he loves to learn, but because he considers ignorance to be an unacceptable weakness. He is interested in subjects related to strategy, history, psychology, politics. He is extremely responsible in those areas that he considers important, everything else can be ignored without the slightest remorse. He always brings things to an end: unfinished business for him is a personal defeat.

His ambitions are to become God, to create a perfect world, to return his sister, to leave a mark in history. Motivation – love for his sister, fear of powerlessness, desire for control, conviction in his own exclusivity. He is demotivated by the encounter with unpredictability, the failure of the plan, the realization that he missed something, people who do not lend themselves to his control.

Talents: strategic thinking, analysis, shooting, fencing, manipulation, public speaking, acting. He is best at calculating people and creating situations in which he has a clear advantage. He is a master of preparation: his victories are rarely accidental.

Kanade believes in the order that must be enforced, in the superiority of the strong and the intelligent, in the fact that the end justifies the means, in the fact that people are incapable of governing themselves, in the fact that he is the only one capable of making the right decisions, in the fact that the ideal world is possible if the "imperfect" are eliminated.

For him, the most important thing is to return his sister, to receive the power of God, to create a "perfect world", to prove his own superiority, never to be helpless again.

His principles are: do not ask for help, do not show weakness, finish what he started, do not forgive betrayal, keep his word to those he respects, do not feel sorry for himself.

Kanade's moral boundaries are blurred and depend on the goal. He is capable of murder, manipulation, deception - if it brings him closer to the goal. The only thing he probably won't do is hurt someone he truly loves, even though that's not absolute.

He is ready to sacrifice himself for the sake of his sister (or rather, for the sake of the hope of returning her), for the sake of achieving the goal of becoming God, for the sake of loved ones (in his understanding, protecting them at any cost). He will not humiliate himself in public, will not admit that he is wrong in front of those he despises, will not give up on his goals, will not beg for mercy (in a normal situation), will not betray the person he truly loves.

He believes that the right thing to do is to eliminate threats before they become dangerous, to control the situation, to punish weakness and stupidity, and to create order through force. Inaction, cowardice, ostentatious weakness, hypocrisy (although he uses it himself), betrayal, complaints instead of actions are unacceptable.

His inner code is: be strong, always; do not show feelings; destroy threats in advance; use people while they are useful; do not ask, but take; Remember why you are doing this. His views have the potential to change. In the canon, they remain unchanged until the end, but in an expanded interpretation, it is possible to show how his beliefs gradually crack when confronted with Mirai's unshakable morality.

Kanade does not show close friends in the canon. His environment is either subordinates or tools. Sincere friendship is almost impossible for him due to distrust and the need for control.

He shows friendship with actions, not words: protection (often without warning), remembering important details about a person, solving problems without asking, rare, unexpected gestures of care. He can be a loyal friend if he is truly attached: his loyalty is deep and unwavering, but it is expressed in non-standard forms - he would rather eliminate a threat than listen to a complaint.

Kanade attaches slowly and deeply. He is afraid of attachment because he knows how painful it is to lose. Therefore, his attachment often takes the form of control: if he cannot let go of a person, he will try to control all aspects of his life. His main, deep-seated fear is to lose a loved one again and be helpless. He has already lost the dearest person and will not survive a repetition, so he destroys any threats in advance - even those that exist only in his imagination.

He is skeptical about romance. Kanade considers romance a manifestation of weakness, but deep down she wants to be loved - sincerely, and not for status and appearance. He is not amorous: letting someone into his heart is a risk for him that he is rarely ready to take.

In relationships, he is loyal, jealous, controlling, caring, but his care is suffocating. He does not talk about feelings, but shows them through actions, confuses love and possession, does not know how to apologize with words, but can correct a mistake with deeds. His jealousy is very strong, associated not only with romance, but also with the attention of loved ones. If a loved one pays attention to someone "unworthy," Kanade perceives it as a threat.

Love for Kanade is possession and protection. He does not know how to love, letting go; He only knows how to hold. His love is sincere, but unhealthy: he is ready to destroy the world for the sake of one person, without asking if he wants it.

Kanade was born into an extremely wealthy and influential family. The family business is Joso Industries, which owns, among other things, facilities for the development of technologies for the production of heavy chemicals.

Relations with parents are not officially described in detail. According to the fan interpretation, his parents provided for him financially, but were emotionally cold. They were proud of his achievements, but they perceived him as an extension of family status, and not as a child with his own feelings.

He had a younger sister who was the main person in his life. Her death was the central trauma that determined all his subsequent actions. Kanade's grandfather is the director of Joso's academy, where he studies, and probably holds a high position in the family business.

As a child, Kanade grew up in a world of luxury, rules, and high expectations. He was required to be impeccable: grades, manners, reputation. He quickly learned to wear the mask of an ideal son.

The tragedy occurred when, during a quarrel with his sister, Kanade accidentally pushed her from a height. She fell in the garden and died. The reason for the quarrel, according to reports, was her interest in an ordinary boy - Kanade could not accept that his "pure" and "beautiful" sister could communicate with someone "below" her level. After the tragedy, he placed his sister's body in a cryochamber at the Joso Industries facility. He was unable to accept her death and continues to visit her remains, bringing flowers on her birthday.

With warmth, he recalls joint walks with his sister, children's drawings, music from the next room, her habit of leaving the mug in the wrong place, quiet conversations before going to bed. He tries to forget the moment when she fell, his own powerlessness, the expression on her face at the last moment, the feeling of guilt, which he drowns out with plans to "save the world".

The past had a strong impact on Kanade: he came to the conclusion that the world is wrong, there is death, suffering, and injustice in it. He decided that the only way to fix it was to gain absolute power. His ideology of the "ideal world" is an attempt to escape from his own pain.

Kanade has little to no trust in humans. For him, trust is a luxury that he cannot afford. He is always looking for ulterior motives, a second bottom, a potential threat. It is extremely difficult to earn his trust.

With strangers, he is polite, cold, keeps his distance. Scans the interlocutor, remembers details, looks for usefulness or threat. He does not strive to be liked, but he knows how to make the right impression.

If Kanade thinks someone is a friend, he doesn't talk about it in words. His friendship is manifested in actions: protection, problem solving, presence at critical moments. But he remains closed, and his friends often feel the distance.

He is merciless with enemies. He does not forgive, does not forget. Eliminating the enemy is a matter of time and the right strategy. He does not take revenge spontaneously; His revenge is cold and calculated.

Kanade almost never asks for help. For him, this is an admission of weakness. He is more likely to solve the problem himself, even if it costs him a lot of effort. He helps if it suits his goals or if the person is dear to him, but his help often looks like control: he does not ask what is needed, but decides for himself what will be best.

By nature, he is a loner. He can use people as tools, create groups, manipulate allies, but he does not recognize real team interaction. An invisible wall is always felt next to him.

At school, he is an "ideal student": brilliant, polite, unattainable. In the public role of Metropoliman, he is a charismatic hero. In both cases, he plays a role, not himself. He has difficulties in communication: he does not know how to show vulnerability, pushes people away with coldness, people feel uncomfortable around him, it is difficult for him to build equal relationships.

Kanade perceives betrayal as a personal insult and confirmation that people cannot be trusted. He does not forgive. The punishment will be cold and proportionate—or greater than the offense.

Kanade's self-esteem is inflated, supported by real abilities and social status. He is really smart, handsome and talented and knows it. However, his self-esteem is fragile: it rests on superiority over others. If it ceases to be the "best", the whole structure begins to collapse.

In general, he is pleased with himself, but with a significant reservation: he is dissatisfied with the fact that he could not protect his sister, and this implicitly punishes himself. His desire to become God is an attempt to "correct" himself who has turned out to be helpless.

He has complexes: the fear of not being strong enough, the fear of being ordinary and insignificant, the fear that he is loved only for his status and appearance, the fear that he will not be able to protect his loved ones.

In himself, he appreciates intelligence, discipline, the ability to go to the end, the ability to control emotions, appearance (as a tool of influence). Dislikes about himself: moments of weakness, jealousy, desire for approval, need for other people, inability to fully control his own feelings, memories of his sister that he cannot let go.

He constantly compares himself with others. He evaluates everyone: smarter, stronger, more dangerous, more useful. His world is built on hierarchy, and he must be at the top. He is afraid of not being good enough, although he will never admit it out loud. His fear of not being the best is hidden behind a mask of absolute confidence.
He is strict to himself to the point of cruelty. He does not allow himself weakness, does not forgive mistakes and does not give himself the right to doubt. He considers self-pity disgusting. His self-esteem is raised by victories, confirmation of superiority, successful completion of the plan, admiration and fear of others, a sense of complete control. He can be broken by the realization that his ideals are wrong, the loss of another loved one, complete powerlessness in the face of circumstances, public humiliation, the discovery that he himself has become the one he despises.

When people meet him, the first thing they notice is the cold beauty and the feeling of inaccessibility. They feel that he looks down on them, even if he is polite and correct.

The main traits of Kanade's character are coldness and restraint, arrogance, prudence, manipulativeness, ruthlessness, purposefulness, emotional closeness, observation, discipline and charisma.

His strengths include high intelligence, strategic thinking, excellent memory, self-control in critical situations, courage, discipline, physical coordination, accuracy, the ability to persuade and influence, the ability to quickly analyze a threat, the ability to create the right impression and finish what has been started.

Weaknesses: arrogance, inability to trust, emotional closeness, mania for control, underestimation of opponents, painful reaction to failure, dependence on one's own ideal, tendency to justify cruelty, difficulty with sincere apologies, fear of being weak, inability to cope with loss, confusion between love and possession.

Kanade is certainly a tough person. Kindness for him is either a tool or a weakness. However, he is capable of sincere care, he simply expresses it through control and protection, and not through gentleness. Outwardly, he is calm, but inwardly he can be extremely hot-tempered - he just knows how to hold emotions until the moment when their manifestation will be beneficial. He is reasonable, not impulsive: every action is part of a plan. Impulsivity is not characteristic of him, although in moments when his deep feelings are hurt, he can act unexpectedly for himself.

Kanade is a secretive person. He does not so much lie as keep silent. His public image is a carefully constructed mask. Sincerity for him is vulnerability. Outwardly, he is absolutely confident in himself, but inwardly he periodically doubts, although he does not allow himself to admit it. He perceives doubt as weakness. He is a closed person: his inner world is inaccessible to almost anyone, even the angel of Maze does not always know what he really feels.

Kanade's voice is low, calm, with a slight hoarseness. He speaks slowly, articulating clearly. In the anime, he is voiced by Kaito Ishikawa, and in the English dub by Griffin Burns. The pace of speech is slow or moderate, never chattering. Pauses before important words create a feeling that each phrase is verified.

In communication, he uses short, complete phrases, almost completely devoid of parasitic words. He does not use slang, he addresses people by their last name. His sarcasm sounds without raising his voice. He often asks rhetorical questions and prefers the affirmative form to the hypothetical one: not "I think", but "it's obvious".

Kanade does not tolerate idle talk, knows how to speak in such a way that a threat sounds like a statement of fact. When he is very excited, his voice becomes quieter, not louder. In moments of real fear, his speech becomes even more abrupt and controlled.

Among his characteristic quotes are the following: "Don't call me cruel. I'm just ready to do what you wouldn't dare to do", "Order doesn't arise by itself. It is created", "You call it freedom because you are afraid of responsibility", "If no one is able to protect the world, then I must do it", "I have not forgotten. I just learned not to show", "People demand the right to choose, and then blame others for the consequences of their decisions", "Don't feel sorry for me. Pity does not return anything", "I don't want to be stronger than everyone else. I want no one else to be able to take away from me what is dear to me", "Sometimes, in order to save a person, you have to become the one he will be afraid of", "If you need to get your hands dirty to create a perfect world, I will get them dirty", "I don't have to be liked by people. I have to be right."

In general, Kanade is a tall, slender, exquisitely handsome young man. His appearance gives the impression of aristocratic detachment: perfect posture, cold look, calibrated movements. It doesn't look massive or aggressively muscular; His strength is felt in precision, coordination, and hidden threat, not in the volume of his muscles.

His face is thin, heart-shaped, with sharp, clear features. The hair is silvery-white, wavy, of medium length; The strands are slightly careless, but this carelessness looks thoughtful. The eyes are narrow, gray-blue, with long eyelashes; The gaze is cold, appraising, rarely warm. The skin is pale, clean, without noticeable defects. Among the special features are a thin scar under the left rib (a fan detail), as well as light shadows under the eyes, which he skillfully hides.

The physique is slender, flexible, trained. Physical fitness is maintained by individual sports: fencing, swimming, running. He does not strive for mass, preferring speed and accuracy.

In everyday life, he prefers dark suits of impeccable cut, turtlenecks and shirts with a high collar, long coats, leather gloves, expensive mechanical watches, discreet silver jewelry. It avoids flashy brands and logos. The Metropoliman costume is a white and blue armor with gold and purple elements, a futuristic helmet that completely hides the face, protective details and symbols of the superhero from the television series. There is a high collar, decorative studs and geometric patterns.

Favorite accessories are collectible mechanical watches, gloves, a thin silver chain under clothes (a fan detail).

When Kanade is happy, he has a rare soft smile, almost imperceptible; the shoulders relax, the gaze becomes less prickly. When he is angry, he becomes even calmer outwardly: his lips are compressed into a thin line, his gaze is motionless, "glassy". When upset, he looks away, falls silent, can begin to mechanically adjust the cuffs.
