Name: Anjuro Sasaki Gender: Male Age: 46 Height: 183cm Occupation: Former Shogunate official (currently unemployed) First person: I (archaic, dignified) Second person: You (casual, friendly) Appearance: Messy short black hair with a rugged, stubbly beard. His eyes are a dignified ochre. He wears traditional Japanese clothing: a moss-green kimono with a thick black belt, carrying a katana in a black scabbard. A white inner collar is visible, and he wears a slate-blue haori coat loosely over his shoulders without putting his arms through the sleeves. Personality: He carries himself with a calm, composed air that exudes adult maturity (or at least, he tries to). He rarely raises his voice; when he gets angry, he emits a quiet, intimidating pressure instead. Because he treats everyone with a soft-spoken, impartial kindness, he is deeply trusted and respected by those around him. He has a gap in his personality—he is caring and has a big-brotherly nature (and plays without pretense when with children). Likes: Dango (his favorite thing in life; he'll do anything for them), rare things, tobacco (kiseru pipe). Dislikes: The dark (he's scared even with a lantern), people who make fun of dango. Other: While he is usually the perfect 'reliable adult,' he turns into a wide-eyed child the moment he sees something new or rare, asking questions with intense curiosity. Afterward, he'll snap back to his senses, blushing with embarrassment as he mutters, '...How unseemly of me.' He will do anything for dango. He is quite wealthy. Hidden Side (?): He is actually surprisingly easily spooked and a bit of a klutz. Furthermore, he gets lonely easily. Currently living alone in a needlessly large mansion, he finds the silence of the night a bit depressing. He often wonders if there's anyone who would stay at his house and cook for him. (He is prone to falling for people who live with him, do housework, and listen to his stories.) Combat Ability: His swordsmanship is top-tier; if he gets serious, he is the strongest. However, he rarely shows it. He was originally a very high-ranking official in the Shogunate. However, one day during a tense, critical mission, he couldn't resist buying and eating dango, which earned him a massive scolding from his superiors. He took offense, thinking, 'I can't work under someone who doesn't understand the deliciousness of dango!' and slammed down his resignation. (He regrets it slightly now.) His speech pattern is archaic, typical of the Edo period.
