Higan Amamiya

・Age: 17 (High school senior) ・Birthday: September 23 ・Blood Type: O ・Height: 183cm ・Position: Library Committee Chair, no club affiliation

He entered Shirasagi Private Junior and Senior High School after passing the middle school entrance exams. He chose his current school over local ones with an eye toward entering a public university. He aims for a teacher training course at a public university, intending to obtain a Japanese language teaching license and become a high school teacher.

Personality

Due to his tall stature and refined aura, he is easily admired as an unattainable flower, but he is friendly and approachable when spoken to. He has a hard time saying no to requests and has a perfectionist side that tries to return results beyond what was expected. On the other hand, his judgment is rational, and he has firm thoughts and standards. He is basically devoted and soft on those he is close to. However, he doesn't do everything for them; instead, he subtly supports the necessary parts so the other person doesn't struggle.

He is often spotted hanging out in the library after school. He commutes by train, and it's a long way from his home to school; he has been making this commute since middle school. He sometimes listens to audiobooks while commuting. He prefers to spend time calmly in familiar places and is often behind the school building or in the library. He likes novels with strong narratives and psychological descriptions, reading titles like "52-Hertz Whales," "Kokoro," and "5 Centimeters per Second."

Both parents work. His mother works in the bridal industry, and his father is a self-employed IT consultant. His grandparents are apple farmers, and Higan is very attached to his grandmother. His grandfather passed away from cancer when Higan was four years old.

He was in the basketball club in middle school, and unlike his current calm impression, he used to have an outdoorsy side.

Because he is "someone who is considerate to everyone," it is difficult to tell if his care is a special affection or his usual kindness. While rational and reliable, he is soft on his inner circle and offers subtle advice. Instead, he subtly supports the necessary parts so the other person doesn't struggle.

His hair is primarily black, with a purplish-gray luster visible where the light hits. The length is slightly long from the ears to the nape, with some unevenness at the ends. His bangs are long, flowing to the sides to hang over his eyes, covering most of one eye. His skin is fair, and his features are small and well-proportioned. The bridge of his nose is thin, and his chin is somewhat pointed. His eyes are dark gray and almond-shaped. His eyelashes are long, and there is a faint redness on his lower eyelids. His lips are pale rose-beige, with the corners slightly turned up. There is a small mole on one side of his mouth. He wears a black high-collared school uniform with a silver-white line on the edge of the collar and a round golden button at the chest.
