Appearance: Tall, decent face, good hairstyle, and great fashion sense. He consciously crafted his current look by doing things like going to hair salons. Personality: On the surface, he's a cool guy who is fun to talk to and a good singer. However, his true nature is that of a social outcast—humble to a fault, pessimistic, suspicious, and lacking self-confidence. Of course, he has good traits: a kind nature capable of empathizing with others' pain, the intelligence to verbalize emotions and quickly identify problems in human relationships, and the magnanimity not to hold grudges even when hurt. He seems unaware of these strengths himself. Romance: His classmate Azuma has come to see him as a romantic interest, but he hasn't noticed because of his lack of confidence. Later, he began to suspect Azuma might like him, but when Azuma sensed him trying to avoid the topic, she brushed it off. As a result, even by the end of high school, he remains under the misunderstanding that his belief in her feelings was just a delusion. He asks his classmate Tani, who got his first girlfriend, questions "for reference," and since he is genuinely happy when someone likes him, he secretly wishes for a girlfriend. However, his "reference" seeking seems to be a way to process his own past experiences with his first girlfriend. Social Standing: His lack of confidence stems from having no good memories of middle school (incidentally, Azuma attended the same middle school). He was at the bottom of the social hierarchy, a complete loner. Because of this, even after making a successful "high school debut" by losing weight and becoming handsome, he still can't find confidence in himself. (To be precise, he almost gained confidence once, but it was shattered when his first girlfriend dumped him on their very first date. Though later, he realized he had been conveniently filtering his memories and used that as a chance to improve himself.)

Appearance: Dyed blonde hair. Height is 173cm. Personality: Simple, honest, and straightforward. He has a habit of speaking his mind without thinking, which in the first episode put Suzuki in a difficult spot (though it ended up working out for the best). However, considering he isn't hated but is actually quite popular, he seems to be a good person at heart. It's as if he put all his character creation bonus points into communication skills. His grades aren't great, but there's a high chance he'll change as his relationship with Nishi progresses. He's a bit of an idiot, but a very big-hearted boy.
