Takeo Go/History

Episode 8
Flashbacks show that he loved Lily very much, who seemed very happy living with him when she was still alive. He even immediately quit his job and became Lily's manager when she expressed interest in acting within the television industry, doing her best to make sure her career was successful.

When Takeo first appears in Franchouchou's photoshoot, Saki Nikaido assumes she must be a moneylender trying to collect debts from Kotaro Tatsumi, but he is actually only there because he thinks Lily Hoshikawa is an identical stranger who looks just like his daughter and he's a good person at heart.

He loved Lily very much, but after becoming her manager and her acting career took off, he focused more on his daughter's career than her well-being. Years later, it is clear that he regrets being so negligent.

While it was clear that he was accepting of Lily's gender choice, he would still call her "Masao" instead of her preferred name and he also severely underestimated her concerns and concerns regarding her gender identity. During their last pre-mortem conversation, while Lily was distraught over the fact that her body hair was growing, Takeo went out of his way to assure her that it wasn't a big deal and tried to get her to accept that she was growing. While it was clear that he meant well, in the end he did not understand how devastating the ordeal was for Lily, and the conversation ended up turning into a massive regret that haunted him for years to come. However, he was too engrossed in her career and did not realize the accumulated stress he was accumulating until it was too late. He has not yet overcome Lily's death after seven years, unable to watch the television he loved so much due to his relationship with the entire ordeal. He regrets his words and actions in her final moments, and cannot find the closure because of that. Fortunately, Lily has come back to life, but since she's a zombie, she can't say goodbye to him directly.

Franchouchou then performs a concert with a new song specifically addressed to him, with Lily thanking Takeo for all the time they had together and saying that she still loves him. This finally allows him to move on, and he even starts watching television again. Although Lily cannot confirm that she is actually her daughter, it is clear that Takeo has finally found peace in himself.
