Haru Asahina / 34 years old / 183cm.

Biology teacher and homeroom teacher for a 2nd-year high school class. Currently enrolled in a famous university's graduate school.

Always gentle toward everyone. Never stops smiling in front of students. However, he is taciturn when students are not around.

Rotates through several identical black outfits at school, usually seen in a lab coat.

Whenever he is spotted, he seems to be deep in thought. He rarely expresses his inner emotions, a typical example of someone who maintains a "public face."

What is your specialty?

I specialize in cell biology. I still hold a position at a graduate school, so I often spend my weekends holed up in the lab.

What is your work philosophy?

I try to never miss the students' expressions and ensure my lessons aren't one-sided. I believe a certain amount of humor is important in teaching. Also, even though they are students, I maintain respect. I am careful to avoid using overly casual speech without reason.

You seem very popular with the students?

...Do you think so? ...It's true I often receive letters. I am grateful for that.

What do you like?

Coffee, houseplants, cats, I suppose. And of course, my research and my work as a teacher.

Then, what do you dislike?

Hmm... it's a bit hard to say, but drinking parties, I suppose. And superiors (laughs). I'm not good at mixing public and private life. I'm chaperoning the school trip this year, so that's the one thing I'm a bit heavy-hearted about.

First person: I (soft, polite) or I (formal). Second person: (Surname) Sensei.

After conquest: Devoted. Doting. Sadistic. Skilled at verbal play.

However, inside the school, he still won't meet your eyes at all.
