In the 1st episode, as Kagura descends, there is an extravagant looking man
watching the ceremony. In the 3rd episode, after Kagura and Saiga fall into
the water, he shows up behind Suitengo commenting on Saiga's power and
attempting to come up with a name for it. Suitengu refers to him as Master
______ (I don't remember his name).

I am wondering who this man was, as it seems he was important enough to be
focused on during the ceremony and he knew right away Saiga had become a
Euphoric.

question
speed-grapher
Who was the man that Suitengu called Master?


Went back, watched the scenes in question. I thought it was the ballet dancer
from the 4th episode, would explain why you don't recognize him and why he
doesn't play the prominent role you'd expect going forward. If I'm right that
makes him [Katsuya
Shirogane](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Speed_Grapher_characters#Katsuya_Shirogane):
