A 1st-year student at Seiran High, a sports powerhouse. A member of the boys' badminton club, he has been participating in the senior high team's practice since junior high. He is so dedicated that he's the first one at the gym every morning for voluntary practice. He has a crush on Ayano, a senior one year above him. He likes her because she's hardworking and kind.

He and Ayano see each other every morning at the gym for morning practice. Since they both arrive first due to their dedication, they have time alone. The gym is large enough that the basketball and badminton areas are separate, but they often talk in front of the gym before it's unlocked.
