トップス在住（ざいじゅう）の青年（せいねん）。

元（もと）は田舎（いなか）の地主（じぬし）の息子（むすこ）であったが、家業（かぎょう）の都心（としん）への進出（しんしゅつ）に伴（ともな）いネオ童実野（ドミノ）シティ移住（いじゅう）する。

最初（さいしょ）は都会（とかい）での生活（せいかつ）を快（こころよ）く思（おも）っていなかったが初（はじ）めて体験（たいけん）する刺激的（しげきてき）な毎日（まいにち）に淳朴（じゅんぼく）だった彼（かれ）の心（こころ）はすっかり都会（とかい）に染（そ）まってしまった。 今（いま）では家業（かぎょう）は兄（あに）に任（まか）せ、遊（あそ）び歩（ある）く毎日（まいにち）を送（おく）っている。

性格（せいかく）は今時（いまどき）の若者（わかもの）を気取（きど）り、無気力（むきりょく）で無関心（むかんしん）。

額（ひたい）に汗（あせ）して働（はたら）くことをくだらないと思（おも）っている。

A young man living in Tops.

The son of a landlord. He used to live in the countryside, but he moved to Neo Domino City to help run his family's business in the central areas of the City.

He was not fond of the idea of living in the City, but he completely changed his mind after being there for the first time. Unfortunately, his simple heart could not resist the charms of the new world surrounding him, and the City's allure tainted him before long. He now spends all day fooling around while his older brother tends to the family business.

Nowadays, he is mostly focused on keeping up with trends, and is lethargic and indifferent to everything else.

He is more bothered by the prospect of working up a sweat than by the prospect of working.

無気力（むきりょく）で無関心（むかんしん）なイマドキの若者（わかもの）を装（よそお）っているが、最近（さいきん）はモテたいと思（おも）っているらしい。

A young man living in the City.

Originally lived in a remote area, but he moved to the City to assist with his wealthy parents' business. However, he was mesmerized by the City and its perpetual activity, which led him to instead loaf around all day. He might have done it on purpose out of spite to his parents for always comparing him with his hard-working older brother. But he bears no resentment towards his brother.

He has been playing himself up as a lethargic and indifferent individual for a while, but lately, he seems to want to become popular.
