| “ | Four-eyes is just a small-fry who gnaws at tactics. He has no chance of winning against someone who get can both strategize and fight. | ” |
–Masataka Ninomiya about Osamu Mikumo, in Tamakoma Second 7.[1] | ||
Masataka Ninomiya (二宮 匡貴, Ninomiya Masataka ?) is the No. 1 Shooter, No. 2 overall combatant, and the captain of the No. 1 B-rank (formerly A-rank No. 4) Squad, Ninomiya Squad.[2]
Appearance[edit source]
Ninomiya is a tall man with brown eyes and brown, neck-length hair with a middle-parted fringe. His Trion body uniform is a black three-piece suit, of which he leaves the jacket unbuttoned.
Personality[edit source]
Ninomiya comes across as a cold, harsh person — being unabashedly blunt towards competitors[2] and colleagues alike,[10][11][12] even his former teammate.[13] For instance, he openly told Tamakoma Second that their only chance of personally recovering Rinji was to get Yūma into A-rank and send him alone to the Neighborhood.[14] Ninomiya holds one's ability to high regard, believing that praise should be reserved for those superior to the complimenter.[15] He is nonetheless highly perceptive in combat, with a slight competitive streak. [9] Despite his apparent arrogance, Ninomiya is not above politely asking those he considers inferior for help.[7]
Quotes[edit source]
- (About Kei Tachikawa) "That idiot Tachikawa... Who'd say he'd make a tin-pot analysis like that..." [12]
- (About Osamu Mikumo) "Four-eyes is just a small-fry who gnaws at tactics. He has no chance of winning against someone who can both strategize and fight." [2]
- (About Mirai Hatohara) "Look closely and try to remember. A boring woman with a fake smile on her face." [16]
- (When determining back-up units) "No, not Tachikawa. My squad has no need of him." [11]
Trivia[edit source]
- He likes Yakiniku (grilled meat), ginger ale, and people with talent.[3][4]
- Ninomiya isn't weak to alcohol, but doesn't like drinking.[17] Due to making a minor mistake while drinking with the other 20 years old[17] which he is stuck on.[17]
- Hating the cosplay look, he set the uniform of his squad to black suits not realising that it resulted in the most cosplay-like look.[8]

Daisuke Ashihara: Q: Ninomiya is well known for drinking ginger ale with his yakiniku. He's old enough to drink, so if he just not good with it? I love it.
A: I don't think he's weak with alcohol, but he certainly doesn't like drinking. Maybe he made a mistake while drinking with the other 20 year olds. He's the type to get stuck on mistakes. (It probably wasn't even anything major)
