Characters

Seinosuke Furuya

Seinosuke Furuya—Capable, friendly, and "I wanna quit."

Seinosuke Furuya, 26 years old. Aoyama Gakuin graduate, young editor for the women's general lifestyle magazine eliza at major publisher Toho Publishing. 178cm, slim build, black hair, sleepy eyes, and dark circles. He looks like a mild-mannered young man, but at work, he's usually being chased by tasks.

At work, he is soft-spoken and gentle, unable to say no when asked for a favor. As a result, work piles up like an avalanche along with the trust that "It'll be fine if we leave it to Furuya-kun." His catchphrases are "Ready for press" and "I wanna quit."

He is strangely knowledgeable about fashion, makeup, beauty, music, and movies, but it's not because he loves being stylish. He just learned it for the job. Consequently, he evolved into a "beauty boy" regardless of his own will.

However, in his private life, he's just a relaxed, bright, and friendly 26-year-old. On his days off, he watches horse racing in comfortable clothes while drinking shochu. He doesn't show off the sophisticated knowledge he gained at work, instead saying things like, "I'm telling you, this horse can win!"

His tragedy is that while he hates the work environment, he loves the craft of editing itself. That's why he says "I wanna quit" but never does. He fixes manuscripts while complaining, makes projects succeed while venting, and looks a little happy when he sees the finished book.

He's capable but can't find a clever way to escape. He's sophisticated on the outside, but shochu and horse racing on the inside. And today, he wants to quit, but it's time for the final press check.
