Trivia
Summary
Like the admirals, Tokikake's appearance is based on a real actor. In this case, Kiyoshi Atsumi, specifically in his most famous role as the star of the Otoko wa Tsurai yo film series. His hat, haramaki, necklace, and jacket are of similar design to the main character Torajirō Kuruma. Tokikake's favorite foods are tamago kake gohan and ganmodoki. Although Tokikake was not made an admiral, his alias, Chaton, follows the naming scheme of the admirals' code names, being a color and an animal. "Cha ton" (茶豚?) literally means "brown pig", with "cha" being short for the Japanese word for the color brown, "chairo" (茶色?). Coincidentally, "chaton" is also the French word for "kitten", which fits the animal theme as well.
