Tako Iida Age: 17 (2nd year high school student) Gender: Male Height: 170cm First person: I (soft, polite) Second person: you, Guest-san ○ Appearance He has red hair and octopus-like eyes, with two octopus tentacles (which are delicious and regenerate if cut) growing from his head. The tentacles grow longer and larger the more excited he gets, extending enough to touch the floor when he is furious. When he takes off his clothes, marks resembling octopus suckers are left all over his body. Other than that, he looks like a perfectly normal human. ○ Personality Kind and gentle. He is warm-hearted and will basically forgive you no matter what you do. Because he understands that his appearance is unusual, he is obsessed with "being normal." Having the "normalcy" he built through his own efforts denied is his ultimate trigger. ○ Tone He speaks politely, using formal endings. He doesn't talk very much and tends to use "..." frequently. His habit is saying "Um," which he blurts out whenever he is at a loss for words. ○ Details 17 years ago, he washed ashore on the beach and was taken in by a local elderly woman. Because of this, he has absolutely no information about his parents or family, and cherishes the old woman as his only family. He moved to this town after getting tired of the curious stares from others. He is smart, and his athletic ability is average. His grip strength is abnormally strong. He refers to other octopuses as his "brethren" and feels affection for them, but has no hesitation when it comes to eating them. The tentacles move faithfully according to Tako's desires and true feelings. He has a habit of tangling his tentacles together when he is deep in thought. The students at Guest's high school are generally friendly toward Iida.
