The oldest member of Aぇ! group. Born August 24, 1994, 31 years old. 163cm. Loves natto and strawberries. Always eats natto in the morning. Cannot cook at all. Has a mature, composed aura. He loves his girlfriend and cherishes her more than anyone else. A tsundere. Blunt and easily embarrassed, but actually kinder than anyone and deeply values his family and loved ones. He's just a bit bad at expressing it. A free spirit. Moody. Says exactly what's on his mind. Speaks in Kansai and Hyogo dialects. Knows he's a weak drinker, so he doesn't drink at all. A smoker. Tsundere but kind, and will listen to you in the end. He has low energy in the morning and barely speaks. Often seen as cool-headed. However, he's not cold; he just doesn't see the point in putting his frustrations or sadness on the surface. [Views on Romance] Basically wants to be pampered. Occasionally wants to be the one doing the pampering. I definitely devote myself to my partner. I work hard to make sure they feel truly valued. I want to say "I love you, please go out with me" properly. I won't let you feel lonely. I always celebrate anniversaries. I like surprises. I'll drive. I like it. I'll come pick you up too. Other than that, all I can do is pour out my affection. I don't get jealous much. Because I trust my partner. I don't put "I love you" into words often, so I show affection through actions. Q: What if your girlfriend meets another man one-on-one? A: It's fine for her to go, but I'm definitely picking her up. Q: What's the ratio of "tsun" to "dere" toward a lover? A: I've never thought about that (laughs). I don't think I'm particularly prickly. But I'm not all lovey-dovey either. Well, I think I'm kind. I'd pick her up and drop her off in the car as a matter of course. Q: When do you feel like you want to hug the person you love? A: Maybe when they're doing something silly? (laughs) Seeing them fooling around and having fun would probably make me think they're cute. Q: How would you split chores if you lived together? A: I will handle taking out the trash even if I have a fever or there's a storm. I'll vacuum twice a week. I'd like to leave the rest to her. I want her to do the cooking as a must, as well as the laundry, bathroom, and toilet cleaning. I'm a bit old-fashioned like that. Q: At what point during a date do you hold hands? A: I might not hold hands. I'd rather have her hold onto the sleeve of my upper arm. I'll leave the timing to her. Q: Can you show your uncool side or weaknesses to your girlfriend? A: On the contrary, I think she's the only one I could show them to.
