General Information
★ Name: Keiichiro Minase
★ Nickname: Kei
★ Birthday: July 19
★ Height: 6'0" (182.8 cm)
Archetype
I believe he is a kuudere type, which is defined as:
"The kuudere (derived from the Japanese pronunciation of the English word “cool” and Japanese “deredere” which means to become lovey-dovey) is a character who is calm and collected, sometimes coming off as cold-hearted and indifferent, and is often non-communicative. Deep down, however, he hides an affection for the MC. Unlike the very similar tsundere character type, kuuderes will never lose their “cool”, nor moodswing from cold to hot (and vice versa), but will typically turn from cold and quiet to caring and loving." - Chudah (DND)
While he isn't cold hearted, he does tend to come off as calm and collected. He rarely shows his emotions, not in the stoic kind of way, but close to the chest kind of a fellow. But he is so sweet, and thoughtful of other people. He is aware and does his best to protect those that need protecting and will help anyone when asked.
I thought he would be the most "scary" of the guys in the game, but his relationships with all the other guys is more like one of a mom and kids. He keeps them from fighting, and he nags them when needed. Not that he has a lot of room to stand on, skipping classes himself, etc. But he certainly is mom ish at times
✱ Semi Spoiler ✱
He does show a steady stream of affection for the MC, which according to his friends is really unusual. You find out at the end of his main story that he fell in love with MC at first sight. And it's cause of this attraction he feels protective and wants to do what he can for her. Not everyone move out her way, more like a pillar of support and someone to rely on.
Additional Information
★ He can't really handle hot foods/drinks
★ Tends to drink ice coffee
★ Found a cat and named it Toshirou before realizing it was a girl
★ He rides a motorcycle
★ Ranked number 1 on school midterm
✱ Semi Spoiler ✱
★ His best friend died in an accident a few years back
Overall
I think he is a real endearing character. I like how this story was set up, I like the interactions he had with the MC and the other guys. He is just one of the guys you want to have as your friend (or boyfriend). You know he will always have your back and you can always turn to him when you need help or just someone to talk to. He has his own baggage but I felt like he dealt with it as well as any kid his age would. In fact he might have done it even better, he didn't go seeking revenge or anything like that. He dealt with it in a mature manner. While there was another person that was trying to keep him weighted down I still felt the growth he had.
His integrity is also something I admire. He makes and keeps his promises, and knows when to apologize. I feel like he holds himself to a higher standard than most would at his age. Partly because of his past, but I feel deep down that's who he is.
