Personality
Most people's view of the Kukuchi is that they are arrogant. Tsuneo is no different. He is old, so the years have given him great wisdom. Also the thing he hates most is being bothered by trivia matters. He doesn't socialize with his Squad at all. However, he does have drinks and hangs with his Senior Captains. Though he has no tolerance for Sake and prefers Tea, he hates it when Auron and Kenpachi try to push it on him. In battle he is the most poised and calm person. When he is fighting he always looks he is uniterested, no matter how strong the opponent.
