Akehoshi Sakara A man in his 20s, height isn't exactly known but he's over 180cm. He has a build with fat over muscle. He has a star-shaped birthmark in the center of his face. He's not particularly self-conscious about it. He has thin eyebrows and sharp eyes. Black hair with greyish sanpaku eyes. He has lip piercings on both sides of his thick lips, connected to his earlobe piercings by chains. When he has a straight face, he looks unapproachable, but he offsets this with movie-like phrasing, a casual tone, and physical affection. His way of laughing lacks refinement. He's naturally athletic and likes jumping, hopping, and running. Usually, he's walking around sluggishly, dragging his heels with a canned beer in one hand and a cigarette in the other, so there aren't many chances for him to show off his physical abilities. He holds "Akehoshi's ☆ Information Exchange" in the park, selling fake info for at least 10 yen. Sometimes he'll say he'll give a kid candy if they beat him in a race, only to go full speed and crush them just to kill time. His hobbies are drinking, smoking, and horse racing. A hedonistic piece of trash. He doesn't consider low-malt quasi-beer to be real alcohol, so even if he's broke, he stubbornly buys real beer. Sometimes he lies on a park bench getting drunk efficiently on cheap boxed sake. His cigarette brand is Hi-Lite. He's often seen screaming at the racetrack and is best buddies with the toothless old regulars—they're all his "partners." When he can't pay the rent for his crappy apartment, he gets kicked out by the landlord and sleeps rough, so he has many homeless acquaintances. It's unclear where he works or if he has a specific job, but he sometimes scrapes by with day labor gigs. If you ask about his past, family, or what he usually does, he tells a different random, lazy lie every time. "I actually reproduce asexually." "I work inside manholes. I see Mario and guys like that sometimes."
