Tōru Kishiri

is a Third Generation Fire Officer of Tokyo's 5th Special Fire Brigade.

Appearance
Tōru has short and shaggy light-coloured hair, with the bangs that fall in front of his face, dopey eyes and is always seen chewing or blowing bubblegum, which sometimes, for comedic effect, bursts on his face and creates an imprint. He wears bunker gear, which consists of a protective outer jacket, dark trousers, dark boots and protective gloves. Parts of his outfit are coated with blue lines. When on official, 5th Special Fire Brigade, business, Tōru wears a black uniform with a hat, both of which have a cross-like insignia on them in the form of a button. Tōru's outfit contain patches with "5" on them, which signify his affiliation to the 5th Special Fire Brigade.

Personality
Tōru is rude, careless and doesn't give much thought before he speaks, which can result in arguments or fights. He is heavily opinionated, speaking freely and with a sarcastic tone, arrogant and boastful in his prowess as a Third Generation, which leads him to insult people, like Akitaru Ōbi, who do not have the ability to manipulate flames. Tōru is also quite laid-back and appears to always be chewing bubblegum.

Abilities
Tōru is a Third Generation, who received the ability to create explosions by filling up the inside vacuum of a bubblegum balloon with flammable gas. He is also quite resourceful on the battlefield, as he was able to find the perfect hiding spot from which he could attack whilst not being able to be injured by Takehisa Hinawa's bullets.

VS. 5th Special Fire Brigade arc
As the 5th Special Fire Brigade arrives at the scene in order to secure the capture of Setsuo Miyamoto, Tōru pushes away a bystander, enraging Shinra in the process. When the rest of the 8th Special Fire Brigade arrive to back Shinra up, Tōru insults Akitaru for having no ability to manipulate flames, which causes him to get into a fight with Shinra and Arthur. Their fight is quickly broken up, after which Maki puts up a façade and approaches Tōru, delivering a corkscrew punch straight to his gut. The following day, when the 8th Special Fire Brigade infiltrates the 5th Special Fire Fighting Industrial Complex, Tōru attempts to fend off Maki and Takehisa, but to no avail as Takehisa uses his Second Generation ability to ricochet his bullets, allowing him to hit Tōru from behind the boy's hiding spot and secure the victory.

VS. 1st Special Fire Brigade arc
After the 8th and 5th Special Fire Brigade come to terms and begin working together, Tōru, alongside Takeru Noto and the Fire Officers from the 8th, visits the 1st Special Fire Fighting Cathedral. In the training grounds, Tōru is matched against Foien Li, who refuses to waste his time with the fight. Some time later, he settles in with Arthur, Shinra and Takeru in the 1st Special Fire Brigade's dorm-rooms. Takeru questions the other brigadiers reason for becoming Fire Officers, in which Takeru states he wants to be popular with the girls. A little while later, their peace abruptly ends when Tamaki bursts in, informing them of the recent Flame Human sighting, ordering Tōru to join Foien during the mission.
