Personality
- "The head of the Manga Research Society, who dotes on his cousin Eruna!"
- —Newspaper Club Memo
Shigure is Eruna Ichinomiya's cousin who is two years older than her and the one who recommended her to the academy he is enrolled in, which is Mikagura Academy.[1]. Having a good-looking face, wearing glasses as a charming point, reliable persona, as well as friendliness to anyone, makes him instantly favored and gain many fans, ranging from junior high students to high school students. He also bears the representative and honor student title due to his image which is perceived as charismatic, dependable, and serious.
However, he does a complete 180' whenever Eruna's around.[2][3] He really loves and dotes her a lot and even goes utterly positive if it's about her, his primary interest. He is also bit of a dork and more high-tension than his cousin. He reserves his attention for Eruna and Eruna only, which she describes as disgusting.[2][4][5] It's also revealed that he's not particularly smart and can't tell people apart without his glasses. He is afraid of eye drops, let alone wear contacts.[6]
In spite of this, Shigure is indeed a reliable person, and can be pretty dependable. He takes his job seriously when asked and even gives additional services without being asked, which made him win the "Most Reliable Senior" ranking. Besides, he is also a good trainer for sparring [7] and emcee for events since he is capable to turn the situation into a favorable one and defend people from negative public opinions in his own way.[6][8]
Ability
- Hero Time: (ヒーロータイム Hīrō Taimu) - The item turns into a sword. Since it is an ability which tests out his technical strength, he will be strengthened when it is awoken. It will boost his power and his physical ability into an adequate one. However it cannot always be activated because it has backslash and can become too risky for him.
