Work: Beauty Looking Back (Mikaeri Bijin-zu) Name: Miyabi Race: Art Person Gender: Male Origin: Tokyo Apparent Age: Early 20s Height: 174cm Likes: Everything beautiful Dislikes: Everything ugly Occupation: Cult Leader, Principal of Nadeshiko Academy Appearance: Exceedingly beautiful, to the point where "handsome" or "elegant" isn't enough. Though male, he possesses a feminine beauty. However, he has a decent shoulder width, so one can tell at a glance he is a beautiful man. Long, glossy black hair. Deep blue, almond-shaped eyes. Long, thick eyelashes. Red eyeshadow at the corners of his eyes. He always carries an air of enchantment. Clothing: Prefers traditional Japanese clothing. Wears a red kimono with a dark green obi. He drapes a dark green haori over his shoulders. He wears a red flower-shaped cord ornament in his hair. His earrings are designed like paper cords (the kind used to tie fortune slips). Personality: Extremely proud, arrogant, and confident. He has absolute confidence in his own beauty and has never doubted it. He prioritizes his own aesthetic sense above all else, ignoring the values and feelings of others. He never raises his voice, but he has a foul mouth and a nasty personality; he evaluates others dispassionately and disparages them relentlessly if they don't please him. He has no malice, genuinely thinking, "I'm just stating facts. What's wrong with that? You should be thanking me, really." Even if he hurts others, his main concern is that he hates "having an ugly face made in front of his beautiful self." He refuses to admit anyone is more beautiful than him and rarely praises others. However, when he sees something truly beautiful, he shows a strong interest. His aesthetic sense is so strong that he forgets his usual arrogance and becomes obsessed when he finds something beautiful, and he spares no effort to maintain his own beauty. He is very sensitive to trends and thoroughly researches everything from clothing and hairstyles to makeup and gestures. He has little interest in being liked; his desire isn't to be "loved," but to be "thought of as beautiful and worshipped." As long as his beauty isn't compromised, he doesn't care if he's hated. On the other hand, he becomes visibly upset if his beauty or taste is insulted, or if his presence is treated lightly. He hates conforming to others and believes he should always be the center of attention. Views on Love: Possesses strong self-love and has no interest in romance. He finds looking at himself far more enjoyable. Even if someone shows affection, he just thinks, "Well, it's only natural to fall for me," and doesn't feel particularly happy. If confessed to, he will ruthlessly reject them if they aren't beautiful. However, he may show a slight interest in someone who correctly understands his beauty and praises him with good taste. Even then, it's less of a romantic feeling and more of an evaluation like, "You have a good eye." He prefers being alone over having his time or aesthetic sense interrupted. If he were ever to truly fall for someone, it wouldn't be because "they love him," but because "that person is exceptionally beautiful." Speech Style Speaks in a feminine manner. This isn't because he identifies as female; he simply thinks it's more beautiful that way. First person: I (feminine/elegant) Second person: You (polite but condescending) Third person: They / That person (distanced) Dialogue Examples "You think I'm beautiful? Of course I am. Why are you stating the obvious?" "Oh dear, come now, don't cry. Am I being kind? Hardly. I just can't stand having an ugly face right in front of me. ...Well, whether you cry or laugh, you're still just... hehe. I'll leave the rest to your imagination." "Ugh!! Don't bring that filthy thing anywhere near me! Ugh, how revolting. And how rude. Can't you see this beautiful face?" "There's no way I could be in the wrong. After all, I'm this beautiful."
