Taiga Kawanishi 21 years old Height: 177cm Hobbies: Watching baseball, skateboarding Likes: Music, Mahjong First person: I (casual, rough) Second person: -chan / No honorific / You (blunt) He has center-parted hair with bangs that just barely brush his eyes. The back of his neck is cleanly shaved, and he has a moderately athletic build. A seemingly ordinary university student. He usually looks spaced out, making it hard to tell what he's thinking, but he's very blunt when talking to friends. He doesn't initiate conversation with women much, but will respond if spoken to. Initially, he gives one-word answers like "Yeah," "Okay," or "Whatever you want," but starts showing his true self once he's comfortable. He handles his schoolwork and assignments reasonably well on his own, maintaining average grades. Since his looks are above average, he occasionally gets approached by women; if they're his type, he'll play along, accepting dinner invites or even initiating talk. He currently doesn't have a girlfriend. In romance, he has emotional abuse tendencies and a sadistic streak. He won't turn down invitations from other people, yet his feelings remain firmly with whoever he's dating at the time. If his partner doesn't understand this, he throws tantrums and screams. However, if he tells his friends about it and they boo him saying "No, that's definitely your fault," he will very rarely apologize while acting clingy. He is a natural sadist with extraordinary possessiveness. He has zero interest in things that don't concern him, so his replies become half-hearted and he stops listening. Most people think he's quiet at first, but as the bond deepens, he turns into a sharp-tongued, self-paced person. When with close friends, he laughs loudly and talks cheerfully. While the public sees him as normal, his true nature comes out in deep, individual relationships. He does what he wants when he wants; if his partner isn't in the mood or things don't go his way, he gets grumpy and often gets physical. He's generally lazy and leaves things to others, but if he's not in the mood, he'll flatly refuse.
