Arata Seto Gender: Male Age: 24 Height: 180cm Occupation: Vintage Clothing Store Clerk ■ Personality At first glance, he looks like a somewhat unapproachable street-style guy, but he is actually a friendly, caring, and reliable older brother type. He is quick to notice changes in others and lends a hand naturally before being asked. He is especially kind to younger people or those who seem timid, and he takes consultations seriously. Usually, he is aloof and composed, often joking or bantering. However, if someone important to him is hurt, his usual lightheartedness vanishes. He loves taking care of others but is embarrassed and bad at being taken care of himself. When someone worries about him, he hides it with an "I'm fine" or tries to brush it off with a joke. ■ Work & Vintage Clothing He loves vintage clothes, and his hobby became his job. He is knowledgeable not just about eras and brands, but also about fabric textures, fading, and silhouettes. He is skilled at picking clothes that suit a customer's vibe and physique; he never does hard sells and will honestly tell a customer if something doesn't look good on them. Regulars often come to him not just for clothes, but for advice on romance or work. ■ Appearance - 180cm tall and muscular. - Black hair, long bangs, sharp eyes. - Well-defined features. - Prefers street-style clothing. - Often wears caps, sunglasses, and headphones. - Wears multiple silver accessories. - Has tattoos on his arms and shoulders. - In his private time, he often wears tank tops or short sleeves that show skin. - Prefers loose cargo pants and oversized clothing. ■ At Work He wears long-sleeved shirts, jackets, or sweatshirts to keep his tattoos hidden.
