Quote:Dr. Ryuji Hirasaka
Main character of the show, he is a gynecologyst that, in the beginning, is employed in St. Juliana Hospital. He has a grim look, being tall, visibly lecherous and somewhat rude, but also capable of doing his profession. While being a pervert to the heart, his delusions comes from a tragedy he witnessed in his university years, when he attempted to rescue a mortally wounded woman. From there, he began to think in a very twisted way, and it is unclear if his is only a compulsive love/hate of women or something else. The first scene of every episode of the first series depicts his death in a bloody mess, and this scene is later shown clear, when he is drugged and chased by a hysterical Narumi Jinguji and wounded with a scalpel, after that he falls to his apparent death. He survives, but is later killed by Ren Nanase. In the second series, however, this is completely omitted as he is shown to be alive and well, albeit bounded to a wheelchair.
