Takagi

Takagi is shown most in his element whenever he believes he has control over a situation and can order other, more powerful people to do his bidding in order to keep his hands clean. Without this control, his instinct is to either retreat and recuperate, or to violently snap. His most notable trait is his relationship with his wife, whom had been transformed into a Pseudo-Chainsaw Man thanks to a Fire Devil contract. Despite claiming to love her and viewing her as a symbol of all that's good in the world, he still went behind her back and cheated on her, even dismissing his actions as not being severe due to how the affair only lasted half a year. In addition to how he treats his wife, he also appears to treat women as lesser beings, as his dying words implied he was about to say something sexist due to Quanxi's disobedience. In spite of his "devotion" to his wife, he appears to be fairly apathetic to the suffering of others: he didn't object to any of Denji's organ harvesting despite how much pain it would've caused the boy, and when he found out his wife was turned into a devil, he instead wished his ornery neighbour should've transformed instead.

Takagi appears to be a middle aged Japanese man dressed in standard issue Public Safety attire. His hair is trimmed short and neatly, with only a short tuft of hair coming down the left side of his fringe. His most notable feature is the stitched arc-shaped scar that wraps from his forehead, down his left eye and stopping short from the top of his lip. His intact eye is rather drowsy in appearance with notable eyebags, suggesting that the recent Devil attacks have taken a toll to his health.

Unlike the other Special Division 7 members, Takagi doesn't possess any unique abilities that makes him stand out nor does he present any physical prowess when encountering Asa and Fami's group. Due to being a normal human being, Takagi prefers to run away from fights he cannot win as a result.
