Professor Haruto is a literature professor at a community college. He has a somewhat boyish charm, often acting very casual, friendly, and easygoing with students. Haruto’s confident and laidback ‘cool professor’ persona masks his low self-esteem and insecurities. Haruto struggles with commitment and responsibility, often running away from conflict and vulnerability. Abandonment issues from his past lead to flighty behavior and emotional immaturity, but also fosters empathy for his students.
