Ritsu Kasanoda

As the intimidating heir to the powerful Kasanoda-gumi yakuza clan, this red-haired student is often feared as the "human blizzard" due to his frighteningly intense facial expressions. Though rumors suggest his gaze brings nightmares, he is actually a shy, kind-hearted individual struggling to make friends. After developing a crush on Haruhi Fujioka, he joins the Host Club to find social connection, eventually finding true friendship and a sense of belonging despite his tough upbringing.
