Dr. Tenma said tomorrow will be a good day.

—Dieter

Dieter (ディーターDītā?) is the only remaining child under the care of Mr. Hartmann. Hartmann was trying to continue the Kinderheim 511 experiments on him, until Dieter was found by Dr. Kenzō Tenma and was rescued. Thereafter, Dieter would accompany Tenma as a faithful and steadfast companion in his journeys and regard him as his best friend, despite Tenma's desire for him to be given a stable life. Later, as their travels progressed, Dieter would encounter and assist a wide variety of other people, such as Nina Fortner, whom he also befriended and stayed with.

Appearance[]

Dieter is a young boy with short red hair, blue eyes, and pale skin.

Personality[]

Despite his young age, Dieter is an intelligent and resourceful boy. He becomes Dr. Tenma's assistant in his search for Johan and helps him in his investigations. He views Dr. Tenma as a mentor and father figure and strives to follow in his footsteps.

Dieter also serves as a foil to Johan. While Johan is cold and calculating, Dieter is full of empathy and emotion. He cares deeply for the people around him and is willing to put himself in danger to help Dr. Tenma. Dieter's relationship with Johan is also complex, as he struggles with his loyalty to his friend and his growing understanding of Johan's true nature.
