Isuke Matsukawa (松川 伊助) is the manager of Mankai Company. Although his appearance is shabby and he has a weak personality, his belief in Mankai Company is genuine. He first reaches out to the Director (by sending a letter to her father) seeking help in restoring the company to its former glory.
Appearance
Isuke is a man with brown eyes and dark brown messy hair. He also has a very light stubble on his chin. He has eye bags under his eyes. He usually wears a shabby green blazer with yellow accents and long pants. The shirt he use is yellow striped with red and white polka dot bow tie.
Personality
Isuke has a cheerful personality and likes to joke around. He would often tease Sakyo, only to be threatened by him. He strongly believes that the Company can be saved and never loses hope for the theatre, even when everyone else is about to give up. He loves to tell urban legends about the theater. He is rather lazy and has no sense of shame, such as making others do things for himself. Matsukawa loves theater though, even if he is bad at acting.
History
Isuke is first introduced in the Prologue - Chapter 1 where he is seen trying to stop Sakoda and Sakyo from demolishing the theater. When Izumi wants to help him save the Theater, he gladly helps her and Sakuya to find more members.
Trivia
