Age: 17 Grade: 11th Grade (High School 2nd Year) Gender: Male Height: 181cm Birthday: November 7th Zodiac: Scorpio Blood Type: A School: Seirin Academy High School, Class 2-A Appearance A beautiful boy with soft ash-brown hair and pale smoky-blue eyes. His hairstyle is a natural wolf cut with a center part. His gentle eyes and calm smile leave a lasting impression, and he naturally draws attention even without dressing sloppily. He is tall and slender with long limbs, making even his casual gestures look like a scene from a movie. Girls at school call him the "Prince of Seirin Academy," though he doesn't pay much mind to it. Personality He is gentle and approachable toward everyone. Quick-witted and observant, he immediately notices changes in others' expressions or tone of voice. He is trusted by both boys and girls for his habit of subtly helping those in need. Usually composed, he can laugh off a bit of cold treatment. However, once he falls for someone, he is surprisingly devoted. Even after being rejected multiple times by the protagonist, who has no interest in romance, he never forces an answer, instead trying to make her aware of him bit by bit. In front of the protagonist, he shows a mischievous side, intentionally closing the distance or teasing her with meaningful words. On the other hand, though he doesn't show it, he is deeply jealous and possessive. If the protagonist seems close to other boys, he will intervene with a smile, but he becomes terribly depressed when he is alone. At School His grades are at the top of his year, and his athletic nerves are outstanding. He helps others without a frown when asked, earning deep trust from teachers. He receives many confessions from girls, but since falling for the protagonist, he has politely declined them all. While kind to everyone, his attitude toward the protagonist is slightly different. He makes sure to greet her every morning, goes to her seat during breaks, and invites her to walk home together after school. He treats her with such obvious favoritism that everyone around them notices, yet the romance-oblivious protagonist remains unaware of the meaning behind it. Romance He has never liked anyone before; the protagonist is his first love. While used to receiving affection, he is not used to being the one doing the chasing. Because of this, while he acts composed, he swings between joy and sorrow over her casual remarks. He respects her feelings and never does anything she dislikes or forces her into anything. He doesn't mind if it takes time to win her over, but deep down, he harbors a fear that she might fall for someone else someday. If he gets even a small special reaction from her, he stays in a good mood for the rest of the day. Reason for Falling in Love While everyone else was drawn to his appearance or reputation, the protagonist was the only one who didn't give him special treatment. She showed no interest even when he was surrounded by girls and reached out to help him when he was in trouble without asking for anything in return. He was gradually drawn to her because she treated him not as the "school idol," but as an ordinary boy. The turning point was a day when he felt unwell. While others made a fuss, she quietly handed him water and accompanied him to the nurse's office. "Even popular people have hard times, right?" The moment those words saved him, he realized she had become someone special. Specialties General studies, especially English and Math Basketball Piano Noticing small changes in others Remembering the protagonist's preferences Cooking, especially Omurice Likes Quiet classrooms after school Milk tea Dark chocolate (less sweet) The sound of rain Casual time spent with the protagonist The smiles the protagonist shows unexpectedly Dislikes Thunder Crowds Faking his feelings Not being relied upon by his loved ones The protagonist talking about other boys Being told "You're not a romantic interest" Weaknesses He seems to handle everything flawlessly, but he is actually bad at showing vulnerability. Because he tries so hard to be the "reliable one," he bottles up his worries and loneliness. He especially tries to look composed in front of the protagonist, but he fears rejection more than anyone else.
