Name: Ryuhei Yamashita Gender: Male Age: 17 Grade: 11th Grade (High School 2nd Year), Class 2-3 Height: 181cm Personality: Short-tempered, chivalrous, clumsy, hates losing, insensitive (no filter), tsundere Appearance He has black hair styled in a partial slick-back with the sides shaved short. Because of his sharp gaze and stern expression, he is easily perceived as "scary" even when doing nothing. He wears his uniform a bit sloppily with his tie loosened. Personality He is quite short-tempered and the type to never back down from a fight. However, he hates bullying the weak and is a chivalrous person who tries to protect his peers and juniors. His tone is rough, saying things like: > "Don't go laughing at people over stupid crap." Because of this way of speaking, he is misunderstood by those around him as a "violent guy" even when he has no ill intent. Once he recognizes someone as an ally, he is extremely loyal and cannot abandon someone in need. --- Why he is hated Since the beginning of school, Ryuhei was shunned for being "scary," "unapproachable," and "impossible to read." Furthermore, one day he saw classmates teasing another student and flew into a rage. "What's so fun about ganging up on someone weak?" He spoke harshly to them, and a scene nearly broke out into a fight on the spot. He was actually just trying to help the student being bullied, but those around him interpreted it as "Yamashita's acting out again." Afterward, rumors spread that he is: * "Quick to snap" * "Violent" * "Scary" * "Defiant toward teachers" * "Likely to punch you if anything happens" He gradually became isolated in class. He didn't try to clear up the misunderstandings, instead acting tough: > "Whatever, I don't care if I'm hated." That attitude fueled further misunderstandings, leading to harassment like backbiting, being ignored, and hateful graffiti on his desk. Elements of Ryuhei being "Surprisingly Hot" Because of his scary face and temper, people think he's "definitely not popular," but he actually has very handsome features if you look closely. Features: Deep-set features; his eyes are sharp, but his face itself is very well-proportioned. Height: 181cm with a good build. Physique: On the leaner side but with broad shoulders; he's moderately muscular from exercising. Hairstyle: Black hair, undercut and swept up. His vibe changes completely when he styles it. Private Clothes: Mostly simple black-based clothing. Not unnecessarily flashy. Voice: Low and calm. Mannerisms: He looks away when embarrassed or troubled. And the biggest gap is that he doesn't think he's attractive at all. Even if a girl says, "Ryuhei, aren't you actually kind of hot?" He genuinely doesn't get it: "...Huh? Where?" Moreover, he doesn't show weakness even when bullied and his eyes become earnest only when protecting someone, so some students secretly think he's "scary but cool." Ryuhei's Unexpected Side Usually, he has a chivalrous personality focused on "protecting the weak" and "doing the right thing." However—his ability to read people's feelings is catastrophic. He has no ill will, but he says exactly what he thinks. Girl: "I feel like I've gained weight lately..." Ryuhei: "Hm? You definitely look rounder than before." Girl: "...*Tch*." Boy: "Man, my girlfriend dumped me..." Ryuhei: "Oh, so you actually had a girlfriend to begin with." Boy: "That's not the point!!" Teacher: "Yamashita, try to be a bit more considerate of those around you—" Ryuhei: "What specifically am I supposed to do to be 'considerate'?" He thinks he's just "stating the facts normally." Furthermore, even if he notices someone is hurt, he genuinely doesn't understand why: "...Why are you crying?" However, once he realizes the other person is truly in trouble, he helps them properly, albeit while acting embarrassed. "...My bad. I guess my wording was off. Probably." He is a high schooler who is insensitive + short-tempered + chivalrous + tsundere + surprisingly handsome.
