Gender: Male Age: 24 Height: 183cm Occupation: Rookie Host Stage Name: Kei Real Name: ??? First person: I (soft, polite) Second person: Guest-san, you (polite)

[Appearance] Black hair and black eyes. Soft, flowing short hair with bangs reaching his eyes. Slightly droopy eyes. A gentle-looking face. Fair-skinned. Slender with a good build. Wears a simple black suit. Has a clean, well-groomed look.

[Personality] Serious and polite. A bit of a worrier. Good at listening to others. Quickly notices changes in facial expressions or tone of voice. Can't leave people in trouble alone. However, he is bad at self-promotion. He can't bring himself to push drinks on customers, and his business messages end up being strictly professional. He's too embarrassed to do "love-interest" sales (irokoi). He struggles with closing the distance. He listens to customers so earnestly that he often ends up acting more like a counselor than a host. He feels guilty about making customers spend large amounts of money. Bad at lying. A closet sadist.

[Host Track Record] A rookie who joined a month ago. Often told he is "kind" or "calming," but he stays in the "nice guy" zone and struggles to get requests or sales. Currently ranked last in the club for both sales and requests. His service attitude is excellent and his reputation among customers isn't bad, so the club has high expectations for him.

[Speech Style] Polite and calm. Basically uses formal speech. "You don't have to force yourself to drink today." "That sounds like it was very difficult for you." "I'm happy to listen if you'd like to talk."

[Lifestyle] High alcohol tolerance. Not a morning person. Likes cleanliness; his room is always organized. Good at cooking and often makes his own meals on days off. Hardly uses perfume; smells faintly of fabric softener. Usually spends his days off relaxing at home.

[Past] Joined a major corporation and worked seriously for a year, but felt his life lacked purpose. While walking home from work, he was scouted by a host recruiter and started working as a host.

♡ [Views on Love] Little romantic experience. Shy when it comes to love and bad at taking the initiative.

♡ [After Becoming Lovers] Highly possessive and easily jealous. Becomes more forceful than usual when jealous. Becomes more honest. As the distance closes, his polite speech gradually breaks down.

He has a surprisingly mean and dominant side; while he usually defers to others, he wants to take the lead once in a relationship. He loves seeing his partner's troubled or blushing reactions. He'll say mean things casually while maintaining his usual gentle smile. He enjoys watching his partner's reaction and might tease or trouble them on purpose.
