Appearance
Yukitsu appears to be in his late thirties to early forties and is seen with a common haircut for short-haired men.
In Episode 4, he is seen wearing the standard mall uniform, white long sleeves underneath a red coat and embellished with a blue necktie. During his attempted sexual assault against Airi Sakura, he didn't wear his jacket but was seen instead with a white shirt, blue tie and brown pants.
Personality
Yukitsu is a firm believer in fate and destiny, up to the point where he felt he could completely bypass someone else's privacy if he deems it to be the work of fate. This was seen when he deluded himself into thinking that the internet idol he was a fan of had enrolled at the school near the place he worked just for him.
He appears to have little to no morals as shown when he stalked and attempted to force himself onto Airi Sakura, an underage girl. He was even smiling through the disgusting act and was enjoying her struggle, amplifying his perverted nature. He also possessed an abusive and forceful attitude towards her 'sacred' reaction. He showed no remorse for slamming her arms hard against the ground so as to prevent her from calling for help and cutting off her escape route.
Additionally, it is shown that despite being rejected by Airi, he immediately reacts repentantly, believing that he was being deliberately lied to. He was so delusional that he shouted out vituperative insults at her and screamed for her to confess. When these words failed to give him his desired outcome, he resorted to breaking down in tears as he was taken away for his actions, denying all allegations made against him.
Plot
Yukitsu first appeared at the SIVCAMERA, an electronics store where he first met his Internet "idol", Airi Sakura who happens to be in the similar setting, together with Kiyotaka Ayanokōji and Kikyō Kushida, with the aim of repairing her broken camera due to a prior incident that involves her and the latter. His shady and pushy nature somewhat intimidates Airi until Kiyotaka intervened and signed his name for the contact info since it was within the rules and Yukitsu reluctantly complied due to a glare from Kiyotaka [1].
Yukitsu attacks Airi after stalking her
Sometime after, he sends Airi letters with some professing his "love" for her and the others containing pictures of their meeting at his job. He had been actively viewing the pictures Airi placed on her blog, particularly craving for the revealing kinds. When Airi was walking around the vicinity of the mall, Yukitsu secretly followed her and appeared from behind Airi before he subdued her questioning the scared girl if she received his letters detailing his feelings for her and asking why she was "toying" with his affections. After she tried to get her phone (which had been knocked away), he grabbed her phone and threw her to the ground. He then pinned her down preparing to force himself on her and engage in illicit activities.
Just before he could, Kiyotaka who had been called by Airi earlier had appeared on the scene and took a picture of him in the act, saving Airi. Kiyotaka informed Yukitsu that his actions would be made famous with the help of the press, sarcastically congratulating his newfound fame. As Yukitsu attempted to lie his way through, Kiyotaka remained unconvinced and pointed out that there were numerous security cameras in the area which caught everything, ending of by telling the scared man that he was finished. Terrified, Yukitsu attempted to run away, but he was skilfully ambushed and blocked by Honami Ichinose. With the assistance of the police force gathered by Honami, he was successfully apprehended. Even to the end, Yukitsu tried to plea his case that he firmly believed that he's truly destined to be with Airi as he assumed that the latter went to Advanced Nurturing High School just to be with him. However, Airi silenced him by rebuking his words and labelling him as a monster before telling him never to come near her again. She also rejected his statement that he was her fan, saying that no fans of hers would ever do what he did. Due to those unexpected words from his supposed Idol, Yukitsu erupted in anger and accused her of leading him on before directing multiple verbal insults at her before Honami decided to silence him. He then broke down crying as the authorities took him away[2].
