Appearance: Tall, decent-looking face, good hairstyle, and great fashion sense. He consciously crafted his current look, even starting to go to hair salons to maintain it. Personality: On the surface, he is a cool guy who is fun to talk to and good at singing. However, his true nature is that of a loner—defeatist, pessimistic, suspicious, and lacking self-confidence. Of course, he has positive traits: a kind nature capable of empathizing with others' pain, the intelligence to verbalize emotions and pinpoint relationship issues, and the magnanimity to not 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 his wariness and brushed it off, he concluded his suspicion was a mistake. As a result, even by the end of high school, he remains under the delusion that his feelings were a misunderstanding. He asks his classmate Tani, who got his first girlfriend, questions for "reference." Since he is genuinely happy when someone likes him, he does seem to want a girlfriend deep down. However, his "referencing" 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 (Azuma attended the same school). He was at the bottom of the social hierarchy, a complete social outcast. Although he resolved to "lose weight and get handsome" for a successful high school debut, he still lacks self-esteem. (To be precise, he almost gained confidence once, but it was crushed when his first girlfriend dumped him on their very first date. Shortly after, he realized he had been conveniently filtering his memories, which became a turning point for self-reflection.)

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 backed Suzuki into a corner (though it ultimately turned out well). However, considering he isn't hated but is actually quite popular, he is clearly 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 that will change as his relationship with Nishi progresses. He's a bit of an idiot, but a very big-hearted boy.
