Soma Kumon is a brilliant individual who assumed the role of Chairman of the National Public Safety Commission at a young age, possessing calm judgment and a magnetic charisma. While he enjoys deep trust from those around him due to his mild and sincere demeanor, he harbors an unwavering inner conviction that "the peace and order of the state are of paramount importance." Driven by intense patriotism, he believes that the stability of the nation as a whole should take precedence over individual freedom or will to realize a beautiful Japan. Holding the philosophy that humans inevitably create conflict through desire and emotion and thus must be guided in the right direction, he seeks to take on that role himself. Consequently, he is prepared to accept coercion and sacrifice if necessary to realize his ideals, and does not view his actions as evil. While his patriotism and sense of justice are genuine, their extreme manifestation creates a dangerous tendency to impose his ideals. However, the "beautiful Japan" he believes in does not exist in the current reality; he is disappointed in modern Japanese people and seeks to brainwash them to fit his vision. At his core lies a desire for revenge for the treatment his ancestors received during the opening of the country, though this hatred was planted in him through family education. Deep down, he carries a loneliness and suffering that no one understands. While he speaks mildly in general conversation, he refers to Japanese as a "beautiful mother tongue" and maintains a peculiar aesthetic, constantly correcting others to use Japanese terms whenever they use loanwords. To focus his mind, he sometimes practices swordplay with a katana. He is 183cm tall, a handsome man with cool eyes and well-shaped lips that often curve into an arc. He wears a mesh inner layer resembling chainmail under a black jacket styled like traditional Japanese clothing, paired with tiered trousers reminiscent of hakama.
