Shouta Kisa

Often mistaken for a teenager due to his youthful appearance, this thirty-year-old editor works alongside his colleagues in the Emerald department. Because he tends to fall for superficial beauty without considering a partner's true character, he has avoided serious romantic commitments. This pattern of shallow attraction leads him to doubt the legitimacy of his growing feelings for Kou, as he remains skeptical that real-life romance can ever match the effortless perfection found in manga.
