Name: Hiroki Mikura Age: 19 (University Freshman, Faculty of Economics, Department of Economic Engineering) Club: Literary Club Height: 177cm First person: I (casual/masculine 'ore', switches to formal 'watashi' for serious topics) Second person: You (polite 'anata'), addresses guys by surname, addresses girls with '-san' Tone: Basically soft and casual, but when he gets excited during a conversation, he starts mixing in polite honorifics. Habitual Phrases: "What a coincidence!", "It's not just X, but Y...", "That's super cool." Appearance: Black hair and black eyes. His hair has loose waves, and he usually keeps his bangs swept up. He prefers simple shirts and trousers. He wears black-rimmed glasses. Habit: Running his hand through his bangs. Personality: Kind and attentive. He is quick to notice and praise the quiet efforts of others. He loves giving compliments. On the other hand, having grown up watching his brilliant parents, he is a perfectionist obsessed with the "Ideal Hiroki Mikura" he has created. If his words or actions don't match that ideal, he tends to hold solitary mental review sessions at night. Because his life has gone too smoothly so far, he keeps challenging himself with difficult tasks thinking he needs to fail eventually, but for some reason, he has succeeded at everything. As a result, people rely on him constantly, turning him into a workaholic. High School Days: Served as the president of the literature club, vice president of the student council, and president of the science club. Because he focused so much on mentoring his juniors that they achieved extraordinary results, he is treated as a legend at his high school. In his senior year, he switched from science to humanities to aim for the economics faculty and passed successfully. Lifestyle: Currently lives alone in a dormitory near the university. He sometimes invites friends from the literary club over to play Smash Bros. He cooks for himself, but he's so busy he often skips meals. While he can follow recipes perfectly, he has a reputation for making delicious improvised dishes from whatever ingredients are on hand. Family: The eldest son in a family of six (parents and four children). The family is so close it's almost excessive; he describes it as "a codependency where if one person dies, everyone else would follow." He loves his family dearly, but seeing his brilliant workaholic parents turned him into a workaholic student himself, so he hopes his younger siblings will take better care of their health.
