Name: Akise Aru Gender: Male Hair: Silver Eye: Krimson Status: Deceased (Second World), Alive (Third World) Diary: Detective Diary Affiliation: Deus Ex Machina (God), Yukiteru Amano
Akise Aru (秋瀬 或) is intelligent and logical. Although he was surrounded by people who had future-predicting diaries, he was able to outsmart them. He's also extremely observant, noticing small details, putting them together, and using them to his advantage. He is also very calm and somewhat reserved with his emotions.
Aru receives the Detective Diary from Kamado's Server Diary. Taking the form of a slim cell phone, this Apprentice Diary allows him to read the predictions of other Diaries.
Being a detective, he has strong ties with the police mostly with Masumi Nishijima; this gives him access to resources used by the police, including confidential information and also the policemen themselves, evidenced through how he could figure out Yuki was a common variable throughout multiple incidents with the Diary Holders, as well as have the police guard different places. Nishijima even seems to rely on Aru's judgment throughout the Diary Game.
Aru has proven himself to be skilled in hand-to-hand and melee combat, as he was able to overpower Yuno even when she had pinned him down with a knife to his throat. While he is mostly seen without a weapon, when it comes to fighting he does have a preference for bludgeoning weapons like tonfa or a pipe. He is roughly on par with Yuno in terms of combat skill.

For most of the game Akise does not use a Diary; although he is later given an Apprentice Diary: The Detective Diary, which allows him to read the predictions of other Diary Holders as well as their actions. This basically renders any opposing Diary useless, as he will always know the outcome. Despite this incredible advantage which easily makes this the most powerful Future Diary in the series, it does have weaknesses. For example, if one already knows what the predictions on his Diary are, one can instead perform actions that would force Akise himself to change the future instead of trying to change it oneself. Secondly as demonstrated by Yuno, since it reads entries of different diaries, if one has access to multiple copies of a same Diary then it IS possible to confuse The Detective Diary. It is unknown if this method would work with different Diaries given that he could read both The Yukiteru Diary and The Random Diary, unless many more diaries could led to overflow of information - although this is unknown.
Will you be my Yuki or my Yuno? Connections coming soon..
