Character traits[]

Robert comes off at the beginning as a supportive, kind, and a calm man, but at the parts of the movie as Yokai he shows he is sadistic, cruel, cold-hearted, cowardly and vengeful monster that will stop at nothing to get his personal vendetta. Even if it means killing an innocent by stander.
