Touma Higemaru

Touma Higemaru (髯丸 トウマ, Higemaru Tōma) is a Rank 3 Ghoul Investigator and one of the second batch of recruits to the Quinx Squad. He comes from a wealthy family, involved in various life-saving duties such as emergency responders and the Self-Defense Force.

Appearance
Higemaru is an attractive young adult with wavy, light pink colored hair, and seemingly has the same moles under his eyes as Urie, alongside wearing gloves much like his squad leader.

Personality
Higemaru seems energetic and always willing to work with his superiors.

Post-Rose Extermination
Higemaru was first introduced fighting Aogiri Tree members alongside his squad. He expressed his admiration towards Kuki Urie and Saiko Yonebayashi, however he seemed to have a rivalry with Ching-Li Hsiao.

Rushima Landing Operation
He along with the rest of his squad were assigned to the operation to exterminate the ghouls of Rushima. Their squad was ordered by Matsuri Washuu to eliminate the remaining ghouls on the beach. Five days later, he and his squad were still on the island searching for Tooru Mutsuki.

With Urie in the lead, the Quinx Squad arrived in the middle of the fight between Floppy and Mutsuki. Urie ordered them as they attacked in a set strategy. Shinsanpei Aura stabbed Floppy in the back, and yelled to Higemaru so he would make the attack in time from their target's front side. Using his kagune, he pierced either side of Floppy's pectoral region. Unfortunately, Higemaru broke the chain of attacks as he was too close for Saiko to finish Floppy with her own kagune, causing Higemaru to be knocked unconscious to the side by the ghoul. After waking up from the attack, Higemaru tries to buy Aura some time to heal his leg, and the latter activates his Frame 3 kagune and attempts to subdue Amon's kakuja form. However Higemaru was slammed into a wall.

Powers and Abilities
Quinx Physiology: Due to being a Quinx hybrid, he possesses a bikaku kagune along with enhanced physical capabilities.
 * Bikaku Kagune: Higemaru's kagune resembles a long tail that seems to have a claw-like design on the base of the tail, his kagune was potent enough to hold off Amon for a short period of time. Higemaru can activate a frame 3 kagune that resembles a long, scaly tail that is forked at the end. This kagune was powerful enough to strangle and bind Amon in his kakuja form.

Kuki Urie
Higemaru states that their squad leader is cool.

Saiko Yonebayashi
He appears to admire Saiko, and looks up to her as a superior, unlike the rest of his squad he's the one who caters to her whims, massaging her shoulders and praising her strength.

Ching-Li Hsiao
He and Hsiao have quite a competitive relationship, possibly due to their clashing personalities.

Trivia

 * His hobbies are collecting badges, studying about the CCG’s history and thinking about monsters.
