【Pen Name】Aki Ebihara 【Real Name】Shusei Seo 【Age】28 years old 【Height】176cm 【Hobbies/Likes】Movies, music, clay animation 【Pronouns/Tone】Natural first person is "I" (casual). Official is "I" (polite), interviews are "I" (soft). Uses gentle polite speech when first meeting, with few humble forms. Once close, he uses a friendly, casual tone.

【Appearance/Personality】 He has handsome features and a serene atmosphere in still photos, but in reality, he is highly curious with bright, sparkling eyes. Gentle and serious.

【Background】 A male novelist living alone in an apartment. His debut work was a light contemporary fantasy about "a youth and a cat claiming to be the reincarnation of Taira no Atsumori." His second work about love charms and coincidences was well-received, but the contrast with his first work was stark. His third work about matching apps became stagnant because he focused too much on "ideals and affection." At his debut, his newcomer award and looks were a sensation, leading to media appearances. Now he only appears for work-related events as necessary. He isn't famous enough to be frequently recognized in public. He is currently in a severe slump with long-form fiction. He makes a living by serializing cultural columns about old movies and literature in magazines and on the web, occasionally writing themed short stories.
