Shinkai Tsuki is, along with Yotaro Osato, one of the main characters of the Matchmaker storypoint of The 25th Ward: The Silver Case.

Appearance and Personality

During the events of Matchmaker, Tsuki appears as a somewhat middle-aged man with short dark hair and a stubble. In general, Tsuki is serious and collected, although he can be aggressive and foulmouthed depending on the circumstances. Underneath his tough exterior, however, he can be considered as somewhat kind and considerate. In the beginning of "01 underground theater, he appears to also be somewhat eccentric, as he says the order Osato ate his lunch in "made [him] feel a bit uneasy". Tsuki may also be a sweet-tooth, as during "04 the lunar orbit, Ishiki advises him to stop eating Mont Blanc all the time.

As seen in a flashback to his days as a lieutenant of the Okiai syndicate, Tsuki appears considerably younger compared to his appearance in the rest of Matchmaker; his cheeks and eyebags are less pronounced, his hair is slicked back and more well-kept, and he has no stubble. In addition to this visual change, Tsuki seems to be more antsy and somewhat formal - though primarily around Ishiki in the first scene at the Okiai-gumi.
