24	* {{Deuteragonist}}
25	* DistressedDude: In the second, fifth, and sixth volumes.
26	* EvilHand: His bestial right hand is a symptom of usually [[SideEffectsInclude fatal]] W.A. use. The hand is [[DoesNotKnowHisOwnStrength abnormally]] [[CursedWithAwesome strong]], but causes him fits of extreme pain, and the affected area is growing.
27	* MoralityPet: Kubota's yardstick of good and bad is, essentially, what is good or bad for Tokito.
28	* NoSocialSkills: He was socialised by [[RaisedByWolves a ten-year-old boy... and Kubota]]. Kubota says that he [[BrutalHonesty only speaks the truth]].

31	* ShipTease: With Kubota.

34
35	!!Kasai Keiichiro
36	* CoolOldGuy
37	* DirtyCop: Makoto states that his uncle Kasai is "probably the most crooked detective in all of Japan." It's unclear how true this is, as Kasai hasn't yet been seen doing anything to earn him this distinction besides giving his nephew information on cases of interest.

39	* FirstNameBasis: The only character who addresses Kubota as Makoto.

42	* ParentalSubstitute: Kubota's maternal uncle, who adopted him as a teenager.
43	* HandsOffParenting
