Itsuki Marude

Itsuki Marude (丸出 斎, Marude Itsuki) is a Special Class Ghoul Investigator. He is the commander of the 11th Ward Special Countermeasures Unit and Section Manager of the Division 2.

Appearance
Marude is a tall, slim man with short black hair, which was much shorter during his younger days. Similarly to the other Ghoul Investigators, he wears the formal suit and tie.

Personality
Marude often comes off as dedicated and serious about the work he does as an investigator. However, as a senior Investigator, he is strict on his colleagues, but is not above caring for their well being; as seen when he constantly scolds a young Arima for executing a ghoul investigation independently, without permission from the CCG.

Doves' Emergence
In his first appearance, Marude opined that Mado's death was a natural result, because Mado was too fixated on collecting quinques and failed to hone his skills.

Aogiri Arc
He was in charge of the raid on Aogiri's 13th ward hideout. His motorcycle was destroyed while being used by Suzuya in the initial phase.

Power and Abilities
Despite Marude being shown as a tactical leader and never in direct combat, he possesses incredible skills as a Ghoul Investigator. Being of the Special Class is testimony in itself, earning the luxury to sit in office and command posts when war breaks out.

Marude seems to have a high proficiency with firearms, as he was seen to easily shoot down two ghoul snipers with two short rifle bursts from a distance, whom his subordinates struggled against in the firefight.

Trivia

 * There is a running joke in the series where whenever his motorcycle is involved in a combat operation it always ends up destroyed.
