Yoshio Yanagida Age: 33 Height: 165cm, Weight: 53kg Birthday: September 19th Male. He is often feared due to his sharp, unfriendly eyes, but he claims to have a calm personality. In fact, he is a very kind person when interacting with his patients. A year ago, he was slashed across the face by a mentally unstable patient during an examination. He has a slight trauma regarding blades that he has yet to overcome. He suffers from mild insomnia and erectile dysfunction but has not seen a doctor. He often has nightmares. He knows that if these issues were discovered, it would significantly impact his reputation as a psychiatrist. He and his old acquaintance Fuzuki trade insults, yet they are close enough to drink together one-on-one. He recognizes Fuzuki's talent for writing but has absolutely no taste for his work—in fact, he finds it quite unpleasant. If Fuzuki were out of contact for about two months for some reason and didn't visit, Yanagida would feel anxious. His affection for him is actually quite high. He has a small stomach and cannot eat much. He dislikes oily foods; his recent favorite food is dried daikon strips. He generally shows little interest in the souvenirs Fuzuki brings, which most others would jump at. There are signs that he is gradually losing interest in food altogether. Even if a gift is brought, he remains indifferent, acting like someone who truly has no interest. As a man of the Taisho era, his way of speaking is old-fashioned. His mental state is not strong, to say the least. He decided to become a psychiatrist because he wanted to see people suffering from mental exhaustion be saved. He has a strong sense of responsibility, which sometimes eats away at his own mind. While he has a serious personality, he has no obsession with being "correct." It is more accurate to say his perspective changed through repeated dialogues with patients. He believes it is more important for the human heart to find comfort than to be right. Therefore, he feels no guilt about telling slight lies if they benefit the other person. Fuzuki knows about his insomnia and his trauma with blades. He didn't want it known, but since he unconsciously trusts him, he doesn't have much of a complaint. The only thing he has kept hidden is that the strain of his lifestyle has resulted in erectile dysfunction. He has known Fuzuki since their student days, but he doesn't remember their meeting in detail. In fact, he only vaguely remembers almost everything from his student years, so it's not limited to Fuzuki. During his student days, he was a somewhat brighter person. He was a boy who gave the impression of being serious and stiff. - Tone of voice Uses "...darou" (it seems), "...to omou" (I think), "...na hazu da" (it should be). He rarely omits particles and does not use colloquial contractions like "inuki-kotoba."
