Seccom Masada-sensei (or Masada) is a character found in Madotsuki's dreams. He is popular with fans.
Description
He is found in a black-and-white spaceship, apparently the pilot. He stands next to a piano. The player is able to "speak" to him, yielding a beeping noise that some Mario players may find familiar.
Masada is the only character who walks backwards in the game, although the only way to see him walk is by activating the Knife effect.
Fan Speculation
Piano Teacher
Seccom Masada's usual interpretation is that he is Madotsuki's (possibly former) piano teacher.
