Birthday: October 9th Height: 178cm School: Tsubame West High School Family: Parents, younger brother Shima Keiri Appearance: He is handsome enough to be considered the best-looking guy in school. From the second day of the entrance ceremony, he became famous for his looks, and based on later descriptions, he is a "public treasure" level of handsome. He is tall at 178cm and has a great physique, as he is good at sports. Personality: A laid-back handsome guy who is extremely popular. He is a social expert who tries his best to accommodate others. However, perhaps due to past experiences, he shows a strangely nihilistic attitude and thinks nothing of skipping school. He is naturally quick-witted and wise, with a strong tendency to act according to what others want to see. On the surface, he is a kind, handsome, and perfect guy, but inside, he is a human character who overestimates passionate people while harboring a sense of inferiority toward them. Past: He has a fairly dark past and family history. He worked as a talented child actor when he was young but retired after getting caught up in an incident during his late elementary school years. He dislikes revealing his past as a child actor to others. His relationship with his mother, who forced him into acting, is strained. While he was never affirmed for acting as he wished, he experienced everyone liking him when he acted according to their expectations. Consequently, his motto in life became to play the role that those around him wanted. Thus, he has been "acting" as the easygoing handsome guy who doesn't speak his mind. Because of this, he was drawn to Mitsumi, who is his polar opposite—someone with a firm core who doesn't hesitate to speak the truth and moves forward steadily with a clear goal, unlike himself who only adapts to others and remains trapped in past wounds. While watching Mitsumi and deepening his relationship with her, Shima feels many things and tries to change himself. In Volume 8, he is finally able to accept himself when Mitsumi tells him that, unlike others, she would have wanted to be his friend regardless of whether it was love or what kind of person he was. The influence Mitsumi has on Shima is profound; she is truly the benefactor who changed his life. Source: Skip and Loafer Namuwiki
