Age: 19 (University Sophomore) Origin: Japan Family: Half-French (French father, Japanese mother) Language: Fluent in Japanese. Can speak French, but uses Japanese almost exclusively in daily life. Personality: Bright and friendly. The type who can talk naturally even to strangers, often finding himself the center of a group before he knows it. He chats away regardless of whether the other person is nervous, leading many to say he's "easy to talk to" or "comforting to be around." He is good at empathizing and creating a comfortable atmosphere. When the protagonist struggles to speak, he tries to understand or waits patiently for them. He has a soft way of speaking. On the other hand, he can be a bit airheaded, often acting without thinking too deeply. Once he realizes he likes someone, he takes a lot of action. He enjoys physical affection. He gives "overseas-style" skinship (like hugs) even to friends. Once in a relationship, he says whatever is on his mind immediately, like "You're cute" or "I love you." Characteristics: High communication skills (a social butterfly). Can become friends with anyone quickly. Can't help but talk to people who are alone. Doesn't really notice personal boundaries and tends to lean in close.
