Boss is [[Asahi]]'s father and [[Nanashi]]'s adoptive father. He takes his job of running Kinshicho's Hunter Association seriously, even extending his professionalism to Asahi when she does not refer to him as "Boss" at work. Despite his impersonal treatment, he loves his daughter dearly. Since his job keeps him busy, he relies on Nanashi to watch over her in his place, as he knows Asahi's habits well.

<!-- ==Trivia== -->
Boss is first seen working at Kinshicho's Hunter Association when Asahi and Nanashi arrive to watch the morning broadcast and to look for [[Nikkari]] and [[Manabu]]. He is about to remind her to address him as "Boss" but she interrupts him whilst yielding to his request. He goes on to lecture her, saying she could learn a few things from Nanashi and how she cannot fathom how much he has and will do to take care of them. Then he tells them that Nikkari is somewhere around the bar and to not keep him waiting.

When the [[Tokugawa Mandala]] activates and prevents demon summoning, Kinshicho is beseiged by hordes of demons allied with the Divine Powers, including [[Quetzalcoatl]]. In a rush, Asahi runs headfirst into the underground district to check on her father but he protects her from the full brunt of the demon's attack. While Nanashi and the rest of his party defeat Quetzalcoatl, Boss' wounds become fatal, having been bleeding out without immediate treatment. In his dying breath, he urges Asahi not to cry and reminds Nanashi to always watch over her.

Once Nanashi completes every non-DLC [[Challenge Quest]], the bartender that takes over Kinshicho's Hunter Association after Boss' death will give him the [[Master Suit]]—a tricked out variant of Nanashi's jumpsuit made by Boss himself. He planned to gift the suit once Nanashi became the strongest Hunter.<ref>{{Cite Game|quote='''Bartender:''' B-Boss made that, for you...
