Synopsis

Kakeru Sengoku (仙石 翔, Sengoku Kakeru) is the charismatic president of the student council of Katagiri Senior High School who is enrolled in class 3-3, the childhood friend of Kyouko Hori and the boyfriend of Remi Ayasaki.

Appearance[]

Sengoku is a slim pale-skinned young man with smooth red hair that is parted towards the right side, completely covering both his ears and red eyes.

He is almost always seen wearing a sweater over his school uniform, occasionally taking it off or wearing his blazer. Due to his skinny figure, he usually needs to wear multiple layers of clothing to appear of a healthier weight. This, along with his unusually high voice, makes him appear somewhat feminine.

Personality[]

Sengoku is a rather shy boy who gets embarrassed easily and the slightest thing will make him cower in fear, especially things to do with horror or insects. Sengoku is very smart and serious, normally ranked #1 in terms of grades in the school (and #2 in phys ed). He enjoys reading and has an incredible level of concentration while doing so, to the point of ignoring everything else going around him.

He is generally not very expressive with his emotions. The sole exception is his anger or irritation, which he shows all the time as he is the Student Council President. Even though he makes threats and gets angry towards those breaking the rules, he doesn't actually like doing so.

Sengoku is very insecure when it comes to his body. Thinking his slender body is embarrassing and always refuses to show it on various occasions, even going as far as to make up extravagant lies to get out of it. He wears multiple layers of clothing to hide his body type.

Around Kyouko Hori's group, Sengoku is much more abrasive, especially when he competes with Tooru Ishikawa. However, he's quite gentle around Remi Ayasaki, Sakura Kouno and animals.

Despite Sengoku's straight-laced personality, he joins in on the boys' antics, especially when Ishikawa competes with him on which of them Akane Yanagi (chapter 87) and Honoka Sawada (chapter 103) prefers.
