He is the same age as Nio, and says that he was brought to Miburo by Kamo Serizawa and was staying there. However, for some reason, Toshizo Hijikata tells Nio, "Don't get too involved with Taro." Meanwhile, it turns out that Serizawa killed his friend while drunk. Serizawa tells Taro to dispose of the body.
