About
Takuto is partnered with Meroko, and they are assigned to take Mitsuki's soul. His shinigami costume is a cat outfit (with a backpack with wings), without which he would not enjoy the power of flight because he is not yet a full shinigami and hence has not sprouted wings of his own. Takuto is capable of transforming into an anthropomorphic cat plushie. Takuto transforms Mitsuki into a 16-year-old to help her participate in a singing audition. Meroko loves Takuto and gets very jealous whenever he shows affection towards Mitsuki. During the manga he remembers his past as the youngest member of Route L and also develops romantic feelings for Mitsuki. He becomes depressed at times, especially when Mitsuki talks about Eichi, the boy she loves. Towards the story's end, Takuto resolves to save Mitsuki's life, violating fate and his duty as a shinigami. Meanwhile, Mitsuki finally reciprocates Takuto's affection.In his past life, Takuto was once a lead singer in Route:L, the same band that both Mitsuki's father and doctor were in. Takuto also named Mitsuki and Takuto did meet Mitsuki when she was 7 years old when Dr. Wakaouji introduced them. He developed a malignant tumor in his throat, just as Mitsuki later did. Wakaouji removed the tumor in surgery, but it made Takuto lose his voice. Unable to bear the thought of being unable to sing, Takuto jumped from the top floor of the hospital and became a shinigami. Upon remembering his past life, he slowly disappears, but Meroko and Mitsuki manage to stop him in time.
In the anime, Takuto drove his motorbike off a cliff as soon as he found out about his tumor and its consequences. At the end of the anime, he is reborn again at an unknown age (presumed 16 years old by most fans) and doesn't remember anything until Mitsuki yells for Meroko and Takuto sees her while holding a feather he had gotten from Meroko, who had been watching over him ever since his rebirth.
In the manga, he commits suicide after Keiichi operates on him, and is unable to speak. Unlike in the anime, instead of riding off a cliff in a motorcycle, he jumps off a building. Near the end of the manga, when Jonathan/Sheldon tries to take Mitsuki's soul, Takuto jumps in front of the scythe, and both of them are hit. Although the Death Master says that the scythe had no effect on Takuto, he later begins to disappear. He wakes up in a coma (was never dead) with no memory. However, he is able to speak because Sheldan and Mystere healed his throat. He remembers everything after about three months. In the final chapter of the manga, he appears at Mitsuki's concert and shows himself to Mitsuki, who confesses to loving him. The end of the manga sees them standing on the stage, smiling and holding hands.
