Biography[]
Tokuichi Towa is the chairman of the Towa Group, a highly advanced and wealthy organisation that specialised in building technology that would be used in homes across the world. Tokuichi would have two children, his son, Haiji Towa and a daughter he would have through his mistress, Monaca Towa.
Tokuichi was willing to have Monaca as long as her mother stuck around, however, she would leave after Monaca was born. Throughout her childhood, both Tokuichi and Haiji would abuse Monaca to the point that she successfully faked being paraplegic which made the two back off on abusing Monaca as much. Sometime after this, Tokuichi would notice his daughter's natural talent when it comes to robotics and made her the chief executive of Towa Group's robotics division.
This would ultimately backfire after Monaca was manipulated by Junko Enoshima into mass-building special robots which would become known as Monokumas. Tokuichi would realise what his daughter was building and tried to stop her, however, Monaca would blackmail him, saying that if news about the Towa Group dealing weapons to Ultimate Despair was uncovered, the group would be destroyed by Future Foundation and Monaca would successfully convince her father to use this as a business opportunity.
From then on, the Towa Group would build weapons for Ultimate Despair, such as more advanced Monokumas and city-wide poison gas generators while also building counters to those weapons to be sold to Future Foundation. While Tokuichi was forced into the situation, he would use the opportunity to grow the Towa Group into being as big as possible.
This would end when Junko was killed. Tokuichi would halt the development of weapons for Ultimate Despair which would result in Monaca using her Monokumas to kill him, dismembering his body and leaving it in his office.
After Komaru Naegi and Toko Fukawa used Tokuichi's severed head to enter the higher floors of Towa Tower, Tokuichi's ghost would possess Komaru's body, revealing that she was his daughter and Haiji's sister as well as telling Komaru about how he hated Monaca. Eventually, Toko would exorcise Tokuichi's ghost from Komaru's body.
