Everything.

His past, is his past, and he doesn't feel the need to detail it out in length to everyone he ever meets. He's had a shit time of it in the past but knows that the important thing is saving everyone else now - to make sure that that never happens to anyone again. He takes crazy gambles, like actually using his Phantoms power, but he is all about saving everyone he can however he can. Something he is actually shown trying to do more so than say Godai. He keeps his problems to himself and the only pleasures he takes for himself are simple ones like a relaxing doughnut.

He has an incredibly wry sense of humour, something we share and it's rare for Toku to have comedy other than goofball, I find the way he sees the world very amusing and his off hand comments never fail to both catch me off guard and make me laugh. It's funny that a musical wizard such as himself seems so very grounded even still.

And most importantly, everyone knows his convictions and he doesn't need to spell it out. His friends trust him utterly and immediately because that is just the person he is. No bold claims, no drama, he just has a job and he gets it done because that is the right thing to do. I dig that, I dig that because it isn't told in such a mundane and boring fashion like in say Kabuto or Kyoryuger.
