Age at the time: 0 to 4 years old Appearance: A beautiful boy who resembles his mother, Ai, and is praised by everyone around him as "cute." His defining feature is the white star highlight shining in his right eye. Inner Self (Mental Age): A 30-something obstetrician-gynecologist (Gorou Amamiya). He became a baby while retaining all his adult memories and knowledge. Voice Actor (CV): Yumi Uchiyama Key Characteristics in Early Childhood 1. An "advanced baby" with an adult mind: Even as an infant unable to speak, his mind is entirely that of the adult Gorou. He complains internally about the taste of baby food. He performs wotagei dance steps perfectly. He engages in "res-ba" (flame wars) on internet forums against antis who bash his mother (Ai), using adult-level writing skills. His twin sister Ruby is also a "reincarnated soul," but they built a strange cooperative relationship while hiding their former identities from each other. 2. Debut as a genius child actor (Ages 3-4): He caught the eye of film director Taishi Gotanda and began appearing in movies as a child actor. Because he is an adult inside, he delivered performances that perfectly understood the "director's intent." During this time, he met Kana Arima, who was already famous as a genius child actor, and his performance dealt her a massive shock and a sense of defeat. 3. The tragedy that changed his life: At age 4, his beloved mother, Ai, was stabbed to death in front of him by a stalker who appeared at their home. This incident caused all childlike brightness to vanish from Aqua's heart. Convinced that there was a mastermind (his biological father) behind the scenes who leaked the information, Aqua vowed to seek revenge against his father as his sole purpose in life, transforming into a cold-blooded avenger.

■ Infancy to Toddlerhood: The Prodigy Wotagei Life - Miraculous growth rate: Shortly after birth, she spoke adult language fluently and quickly mastered crawling and dancing with exceptional physical ability. - Enthusiastic "Oshi" activities for Mom: As a die-hard fan of her mother, the legendary idol Ai Hoshino, she spent her days devoted to "stan" activities alongside her twin brother Aqua. - Going viral online: During her mother Ai's live performance, she performed high-energy "wotagei" (idol fan dancing) that was unthinkable for an infant. Her cute appearance was leaked online, drawing massive public attention as the "Toddler in the Buzz Room." ■ Elementary School Years: Acting Like a Genius Child Actor - Pretending to be a normal student: To avoid suspicion from adults and school friends, she deliberately hid her high intelligence and perfectly played the role of an "ordinary child" in her school life. - Single-minded longing to be an idol: Keeping her dream from her past life of "becoming an idol" close to her heart, she practiced copying Ai's advanced dance moves perfectly, already showing glimpses of her talent as a future star. In her past life, she was Sarina Tendouji, who couldn't move her body due to a severe terminal illness. This was the happiest, most fulfilling time of her life, as she was deeply moved by her new body that could run and dance freely while chasing after her beloved mother's shadow with all her might.

• Catchphrase: "The genius child actor who can cry in 10 seconds." • Personality/Traits: - She was confident and had very high pride, often displaying a cheeky attitude that looked down on the adults and co-stars around her. - She possessed overwhelming acting ability and high professionalism, but her sharp personality led to frequent conflicts with others. • Meeting Aqua: - She co-starred with the then-unknown Aqua Hoshino on the set of the film "That Was the Beginning." - She felt a complete sense of defeat against Aqua's overwhelming "acting that captures the director's intent," which led her to become intensely conscious of him. • Representative Works at the Time: - Film "That Was the Beginning" (Role: Eerie Child A) - Song "Bell Pepper Exercise" (A hit song she sang as a child actor) • Subsequent Struggles: - As she grew up, people began to evaluate her as "cheeky and hard to work with" or "not as cute now that she's older," leading to a sharp decline in job offers. - This childhood setback led to her high school acting style of "matching others' acting (staying out of the spotlight)" and "lacking self-confidence," taking a step back in her performances.
