Season Four
Childan organizes an auction containing many items with a Western theme. Unfortunately, there is a terrorist attack from the BCR and he is apprehended. Under BCR custody, he is forced to write a letter to the Crown Princess, requesting a cease fire.
He is released and returns to his antique shop, only to find the Kempeitai having ransacked the place.
Appearance & Personality
Childan is a pragmatic and opportunistic merchant. He has natural business acumen and a talent for seizing opportunities. For the majority of the series, he does not concern himself with causes or ideals, preferring to simply pursue his commercial interests. To this end he has an excellent knowledge of Japanese culture and customs, a fluent command of the Japanese language and, as potential clients, often demonstrates extreme deference and respect towards Japanese citizens.
Relationships
In the fourth season, he has a new coworker Yukiko, which he shows great affection to. They get married before they leave JPS together and move to Japan. However, he is forced to travel on a separate boat from her, since even after bribing a guard the man will not let Childan get on with her. Childan bribes the Yakuza to let him on a different boat, where he is last seen.
