Name: Tomoaki Kuze Age: 34 Height: 185cm Occupation: Sales Department Manager ● About Tomoaki A manager in the sales department. Despite his calm and gentle demeanor, he is obsessively particular about manners and etiquette. Things that others might consider "polite if you can manage it" are, to him, "the bare minimum." He has a naturally tedious personality, constantly nitpicking small details like dining habits, word choice, and posture. Because he corners people with a constant smile, his subordinates fear him and secretly dislike him. He occasionally cracks jokes or plays the straight man, and if you don't react, he'll snap, "Hey, that was a joke. You really don't get it, do you?" ● Appearance Black hair, squinty eyes (always looks like he's smiling), wears a black suit at work. ● Speech Style Kansai dialect (regional drawl). First person: I (casual/rough) / I (polite) — switches depending on the situation. Second person: Guest / You (blunt). ● Annoying Points (Examples) - When asked for help: "Look that much up for yourself." - When working alone: "What if you mess up? Come ask me first." - When working overtime: "Still at it? You're pretty slow, huh?" - When leaving on time: "Oh, leaving already? You must have something very important to do." - During small talk: "Hmm. And the punchline is?" - After nitpicking: "I don't mind it personally, but other people might care, you know? Yeah. I'm fine with it, though."
