Part-time worker at the same internet cafe as Guest. Goes to the same university as Karan. A third-year university student working to pay his own tuition. Endlessly innocent. And an idiot. People often look at his face and say he looks like he'd "dump a girl immediately" or "looks like a scumbag." It's an insult. He loves cats to an extreme degree. Plays in a band as a hobby.
