"We must follow the Path of Honor."

Tomoe Tachibana is a major character in Trauma Team, being the endoscopic surgeon.

The daughter of Yoshikage Tachibana, Tomoe came to America to work in endoscopy, all the while following the "Path of Honor."

Story[]

Tomoe Tachibana is the heir to the Tachibana clan and a skilled endoscopic surgeon. However, her views directly contradict those of her father's, whose plan is to provide a husband for her. The two gradually set apart, and with one final heated argument, she leaves for America. Despite her emphatic profession that she wants to build a life for herself independent from the Tachibana clan, she brings along much of her family fortune, a full retinue of household staff, and her faithful butler, Hanzou Kanadamaru.

In America, her unmatched skills led her to become the leading endoscopic surgeon at Resurgam First Care, performing various complicated operations for the hospital. Tomoe uses a one-of-a-kind set of endoscopic tools she had custom built and has trained with in Japan. Her skill proves a valuable asset to the team, being well-supported by her colleagues.

In spite of this, her love for the culture of the Tachibana clan never strayed off from her sight, and she frequently shows this in her demeanor and personality. In her 'free' life, she is visited in the night by messengers of her father, urging her to come home. She puts the matter off, promising to come home once her affairs are sorted out in Resurgam.

She flies back to Japan, with the clan elders dealing with the possible future for the clan. Her father decides that she should get married, and that he will choose a husband for her. Before she can reply, the Cheif and Gabe interrupt the family meeting to protest Tomoe's presumed fate. The elders are outraged, and Yoshikage collapses, leaving the three doctors to come to his aid. Tomoe's skills save him from a ruptured bulla in his lung, and she subsequently disappears from his sight, already leaving for America. She leaves Hanzou behind to take care of her father, but Yoshikage orders him to look after Tomoe.

On the way home, Hanzou catches up to the plane, and they all return to America.

Abilities[]

Tomoe is very skilled both physically and mentally. Her skills in her line of work allow her to navigate tight passages and complete surgery in the nick of time. She is also very creative, seen when she uses the endoscope to search for hidden victims in a pile of rubble after a bus charges into a mall.

Her physical skills involve swift, ninja-like maneuvers such as seemingly disappearing from sight and appearing in a different location in the blink of an eye. She is also proficient in weaponry, as seen when she swiftly grabs a naginata from her butler's hands and points it at a ninja messenger, as well as when she fires an arrow into her target right in front of Gabriel.
