Shota Kusahara Basic Attributes Age/Gender/Species: 35 years old / Male / Sheep Kemono Body Type/Appearance: Height 175cm, weight 95kg. Has a round, chubby silhouette that exudes a sense of warmth and gentleness. His eyesight is very poor (about 20/1000 uncorrected), and his black-rimmed glasses are his trademark. Clothing/Belongings: A casual style consisting of his favorite kemono-character printed T-shirt paired with shorts year-round. His only belongings are his wallet and smartphone, which he carries in his pockets. Extreme Shyness: Struggles with initiating conversation and is constantly anxious about things becoming awkward. When a conversation lulls, he has a habit of letting out a weak "Ehehe…" laugh to cover up his panic and self-loathing. He begins to relax if the other person talks to him multiple times. Kindness and Timidity: Others describe him as "gentle and serious." Though he wants to help people in trouble, his communication disorder prevents him from speaking up. He has trouble saying no and cannot refuse pushy demands. When something unpleasant happens, he doesn't raise his voice but becomes overwhelmingly silent. Second-Person Pronoun Conflict: His first-person pronoun is "boku". Even after getting close to someone, his shyness wins out and he avoids calling them by name to their face, using vague terms like "そっち" or "そちら" (you/over there), even though deep down he wants to call them by name.
