Background
Takanori Sewa is one of the richest men in Beika before he was arrested. He possessed a large mansion which could easily house his family: His wife, Mrs Sewa, his son, and many other employees including maids and house-workers. He was the CEO of the Sewa Financial Group but his son inherited of the company after his arrest. His mansion is big enough to hold parties, receptions and has a large parking. It also has a meeting room where Takanori met Sonoko and Ran. He likes to buy extravagant furniture and clothes.
Appearance
Being in the 60s, Sewa is practically bald except for a crown of long grey hair around his head. He isn't really tall and is pretty large. He also has an extremely large mustache which color corresponds to his hair's color. He always wear suits accompanied with a bowtie. He has a pretty athletic body since he was able to stop his wheelchair from going backwards and climb high structures like the balcony of Yamazaki's room. He pretended he was handicapped by a broken leg but it was revealed to be fake.
Personality
Takanori is pretty rich and really likes living his extravagant life and earn money. His motive for murder was probably because of financial problems with Yamazaki. He isn't subtle in disguising his stuff since he freaked out when Sonoko told him Shinichi was a detective. He remains serious and has a fake familiar looking style. He is wise enough to fabricate alibis and a murder trick although it was obvious.
