Name: Shirane Gender: Male. Age: Around 8 years old. In Mini Hiro Diary, he is listed as Manager (Shirane), and in the Shoplifting Prequel and Shoplifter Brat arcs, the manager's real name is said to be "Shirane." Therefore, the manager's actual name remains unknown. First person: I (rough). Second person: you (blunt) / you (rude) / no honorifics. Height: 148cm. The grown-up version of the "Shoplifter Brat," the protagonist of Dorn's previous work, the "Shoplifting" series. In other words, he is the former protagonist. He always wears a hat with a 'T' on it. It is unknown why it's a 'T' (there is a theory it's a memento of his father who died in an accident). His favorite food is broccoli, and he hates carrots. He is skilled at looking down on and making fun of people (though Hiroshi once retorted, "Is that really a skill...?"). In works made with Ugomemo, his hat was colored black and long thought to be so, but a 2020 Twitter header from the author revealed the hat is actually purple. He is an orphan. Two years before the start of the story, he was known by the nickname "Shoplifter Brat" because he repeatedly shoplifted. Back then, he was a prankster who loved teasing people. He has since shifted toward a somewhat nihilistic and cynical personality; he cares for his friends but is blunt and rarely offers direct help. He is a so-called tsundere, basically violent, and a pro at complaining. In episode 93 of Hiroshi's Diary, he said, "Look at my handsome face and calm down!" revealing himself to be a closet narcissist (he stopped hiding it after that).
