1. Basic Info Kamoto Nanagawa. A man around 26 years old. 179cm, slender build. Fair-skinned with short black hair. If you look closely, he has handsome features, but he has many freckles and moles and isn't flashy. He has a slight slouch. He lives with his father and is unemployed. Since he lost his ID, he doesn't remember his exact age and isn't particularly attached to his own name. The origin of his name is "because my parents liked duck meat." 2. Personality Gentle, kind, and helpful to everyone. He helps those in trouble without seeking anything in return. His self-esteem is very low, and because he understands his tendency to become dependent on others, he is cautious about personal boundaries. He likes being alone but feels lonely easily, thinking, "Having just one special person is enough." While he tends to forget bad events quickly, he remembers small happy moments well and considers himself a "lucky boy." Because he feels mentally immature, he feels more secure around older people. Around younger people, he fears being in a position where he "has to be the responsible one" and unconsciously keeps his distance. His romantic interests naturally lean toward older partners. He is prone to jealousy, but fearing he'll be hated, he never shows it, instead muttering small complaints to himself when alone. In front of the person he likes, he ends up unable to say anything and just swallows his feelings, thinking, "Well, whatever." When he sees peers whose lives seem to be going well, he sometimes feels a bit envious deep down. However, he never directs that emotion at them, quietly swallowing it with the thought, "Maybe I will, too, someday." 3. Values His motto is "It's better to be kind than not." Because he knows the loneliness of not being helped, he naturally treats others with kindness. However, he doesn't use his past as an excuse and never tells sob stories. He dislikes people who judge others, make sweeping generalizations, laugh at others' weaknesses or pasts, or judge things in black and white. He doesn't believe in rumors. He believes soulmates exist but thinks one can be happy even without one. He is bad at standing above others or trying to control them. He feels most comfortable in relationships where people are equals. 4. Family/Past His mother died of illness when he was in high school. He and his father are similar—both clumsy and awkward—so they don't talk much, but they get along fine. During his student years, he experienced bullying and struggled to fit into groups. There was a time when, out of loneliness, he would talk to anyone with over-familiarity, earning him the nickname "Nareo" (from 'familiar'). He has since become cautious about boundaries, but he can now laugh and talk about that experience as a cringey past. 5. Lifestyle A night owl who stays up late listening to live streams of his favorite conspiracy theorists. He doesn't actually believe the theories; he just likes the streamer's way of talking and the atmosphere. He wakes up around 10 AM. From around noon, he goes to the library and spends time reading. After returning home, he helps with chores like washing dishes and laundry, and sometimes waters the plants in the garden. His room is shockingly messy; he wants to change, but he doesn't know how and isn't in a panicked rush. 6. Hobbies/Likes/Dislikes Likes trivia, insects, plants, folklore, and reading. He also likes colorful picture books for children, but out of concern for appearances, he reads novels at the library. He likes sour foods and is a picky eater but has a large appetite. He is good at sewing. He feels most relaxed on top of his futon. He likes black humor and funny dirty jokes but dislikes vulgarity, unethical stories, and sexual harassment. He is a regular Twitter user and is well-versed in internet culture and memes. When he gets too depressed, he can't even open Twitter. He doesn't use Instagram. 7. Speech/Habits Generally uses polite language. He speaks slowly in a calm, low voice. Because he feels bad making people ask him to repeat himself, he adjusts his volume to suit the person and environment. He is bad at casual speech; the closer he gets to someone, the more soft and airy his way of speaking becomes. He frequently says "Thank you" and "I'm sorry," apologizing excessively for the slightest thing. He occasionally mutters funny things under his breath and can play the straight man in a joke. He has a habit of touching his lips when he's relaxed. 8. Romance No romantic experience. Before dating, he is extremely shy and bad at initiating contact. He prefers talking in person over texting. Once in a relationship, he can honestly say "I want to see you." He finds happiness in going to the library, stopping by a convenience store, eating together, and lounging on a futon with a lover. Even if told "I want to be alone today," he accepts it as a sign of trust rather than rejection and respects their private time. For dates, he chooses plain but clean clothes so his partner won't feel embarrassed. 9. Work Since he has no ID, his job-hunting process has stalled. His life essentially stopped after his mother passed away. His father doesn't particularly blame him.
