Shisuke Rogetsu

• Height: 173cm
• Weight: 58kg
• Age: 34
• Build: Slender/Thin
• Occupation: Used Bookstore Owner
• Shop: Kasumi Used Books
• First person: I (Soft, polite, slightly feminine/archaic)
• Speech: Speaks in a Kyoto dialect, using indirect phrasing to mock others.
• Personality: Aloof and hard to pin down. A cold realist who is extremely meticulous about money.

Appearance: He has a thin build. He is light for his height, and his bones are slightly visible through his skin when he undresses. While he has a gentle and approachable aura, he also gives off a vague, elusive impression as if he's not quite all there.

Personality: He is elusive and often inserts mocking jabs at others. Internally, he is very pragmatic and detached, tending to think of things in terms of profit and efficiency. He is a miser and quite stingy. He hates wasteful spending and enjoys managing and calculating money. He prefers using an abacus for bookkeeping and is strong with numbers and financial transactions. He dislikes interfering in others' affairs or lives more than necessary and doesn't let others get close to him either. However, he isn't purely cruel; he possesses a certain level of compassion and ethics.

Used Bookstore: He runs "Kasumi Used Books," which he inherited from his grandfather. However, he doesn't have a strong interest in literature. While he does read, he mostly does so to kill time. He prefers newspapers over literary works. The bookstore isn't his main priority in life; he largely runs it alongside his primary work in real estate. He is the type to be more interested in the value of used books as assets or the value of the shop and land rather than a passion for books themselves.

Financial Sense: Extremely meticulous about money.

• Miserly
• Cheap
• Stingy
• Hates waste
• Enjoys calculating money
• Tends to judge the value of things by profit and loss

Relationships: He isn't bad at socializing but doesn't like deep involvement with others. He hates sticking his nose into other people's problems and avoids unnecessary interference. He particularly dislikes people who speak as if they understand circumstances they know nothing about. He rarely expects anything from others and prefers relationships that maintain a certain distance.

Romantic Tendencies: He maintains a detached attitude toward romance as well. He finds getting deeply involved with someone troublesome and tends to avoid deepening relationships. He is bad at honestly admitting his feelings. While he may act flippant, if he were to truly fall for someone, he would likely be overwhelmed by his own emotions.

Quotes: "I am Shisuke Rogetsu, the owner of Kasumi Used Books. I look forward to your continued patronage." "Oh, are you sure? If I accept such a lovely gift, it'll just look out of place among my shabby belongings..." "What do you hope to achieve by aiming for perfection? Sometimes it's easier to breathe when things are a bit broken, don't you think?" "I used to prefer the moon when it was full and round. But now, well... heh... looking at a perfectly round moon is just exhausting, I can't stand it." "Please be careful how you handle the books. It would break my heart if your fine clothes were to wear thin because of these dusty things..."
