►looking back he nearly gave himself a head full of holes.
shouichi had the misfortune of being transported to nuadoria just as the vongola had broken into melone base. with many factors of his current mission an absolute wreck and no way to monitor the progress it left him feeling like more of a basket case than usual. this continued until byakuran also appeared in nuadoria several months later, which proposed a threat in its own right, albeit an isolated one. once byakuran had left the city, shouichi became obsessed with developing a method to leave himself. unfortunately his findings on the time and space contiuum in his world did not help him in nuadoria's foreign dimension. he then took to locking himself up within his residence to read obsessively in hopes that he would find clues to help his new research.
not being particularly adept in hand to hand combat, shouichi stuck close to gamma the electric despite their previous animosity. with each challenge they grew to tolerate one another more until they had formed something of a working partnership, though they would be hard pressed to admit it. most of this was all for the sake of the princess of the giglio nero, uni, who also arrived within the city for some time. while looking after her, shouichi was incapacitated by mukuro, who kidnapped uni to lure out gamma. to make matters worse, byakuran appeared again, but from a different timeline. he then proceeded to fire both gamma and shouichi from their positions as a-rank squad captains of the millefiore and began to make trouble with uni. it was probably for the best that the princess vanished from the city shortly after.
during a period of time where residents of nuadoria were being transported to other worlds without warning, shouichi somehow managed to land himself back in his own world. however, it wasn't the same timeline. upon finding that the melone base had been destroyed, he runs from the scene in a panic. it's not a few moments later that he's shot by dan smith and mukuro and consequently kidnapped to aid in solving a problem on the moon.
later on, nuadoria is crumbling and there's no way to possibly save it. when the world goes black and the end is surely near, he finds himself at the edge of oblivion with both mukuro and a new friend, yuuki.
shouichi would then wake up in a hotel room with both yuuki and elena, but that would quickly become a hazy memory that felt almost dreamlike.
►boy you're just a goody-two, goody-two shoes.
shouichi was the last of nuadoria transplants from his world to return to his timeline. once back in the melone base, he manages to successfully carry out the remainder of his master plan and reveal to the vongola that he had been a double agent all along. he goes on to help them train to ultimately fight byakuran, who reveals that shouichi and the other millefiore captains had all been given fake mare rings, which had been a major source of their power. the real rings belonged to the real funeral wreaths, who were apparently much more powerful. the vongola and the funeral wreaths did battle in the style of a game both byakuran and shouichi had created in college. feeling responsible, shouichi participates in this battle on the vongola side. due to what should have been expected trickery, he loses when he is stabbed by kikyou. it is then that he explains he is at fault for byakuran realizing his true powers. miraculously, shouichi survives and witnesses the final battle, including byakuran's demise. almost immediately after this he finds himself in nuadoria once more.
once returned shouichi quickly becomes bitter. in a conversation with mukuro, it is implied that now that his plan to protect the future had been completed he was no longer necessary to have around in their world. it was also implied that his return to nuadoria wasn't a mere coincidence. this left emotions running extremely high and though he wouldn't admit it, shouichi believed him. (and still does.)
however, with gamma no longer present within the city and the princess uni having returned to it, he was determined to look after her.
unfortunately, she eventually disappears and shouichi once again feels useless.
►one part the führer, one part the pope it's the inevitable return of the great white dope.
shouichi's element is darkness.
this is a reflection on his other side and his history of harboring secrets. when necessary, shouichi is known to posess the qualities of a "wolf in sheep's clothing". while he has lost the power of the mare ring, this element will take its place.
his die gestalt is a raccoon.
they are adaptive, problem solving animals, noted for their intelligence. in folk tales, the raccoon is often regarded as a trickster, who outsmarts other animals. (though this particular familiar is rather bossy and demanding as well.)
