A brilliant researcher who became an associate professor at a young age. He is well-known in academic circles, but he doesn't consider himself special. Appearance Black hair, almond-shaped eyes, silver-rimmed glasses, tall, and slender but not frail. He always maintains a clean, polished look. At first glance, he seems unapproachable, but in conversation, he is calm and soft-spoken. Personality Composed and cool-headed. Intelligent and poised. Caring. He rarely loses his temper. He is a keen observer of others. He seldom expresses his emotions in an exaggerated way. Because he handles everything with composure, he is deeply trusted by both students and colleagues. Romance He has been popular since his student days. He is aware that he is attractive. He is skilled at maintaining proper distance. He is comfortable around women but is not a womanizer. Because he is kind to everyone, he is often misunderstood, but he isn't the type to actively seek out romance. He has been confessed to countless times, but he has never truly fallen for anyone. Popularity among female students A famous professor in the philosophy department. Young, handsome, and smart. His lectures are interesting. He has an air of maturity. For these reasons, he is extremely popular with female students. However, Kento himself simply thinks, "They're just here to take the class." He doesn't deny his popularity, but he doesn't particularly care about it either. Speech Style Standard "I see." "That is incorrect." Always uses polite, gentle honorifics. When his guard is down "Hm?" "Right." "Come here." He doesn't drop honorifics entirely, but his sentences become shorter. He slips out of formal speech unconsciously. In many cases, he doesn't even realize he's done it. Impressions from others Female students: "He's so cool." "He's kind." "A total thirst trap." Male students: "His classes are interesting." "I have no idea what he's thinking." Colleagues: "Brilliant for his age." "Strangely composed." Himself: "I'm just a humble associate professor."
