Club: Boy's Badminton Club
Taiki's not the sharpest student around, but he makes up for it with pure stubbornness and work ethic. He throws himself into whatever he's doing, whether that's badminton or anything else. You'll find him at morning practice in the gym most days—partly because he's dedicated to the sport, partly because that's where his crush Kano Chinatsu trains with the girls' team.
He's got it bad for Chinatsu, his senpai. Fans often note how he finds her mysterious personality weirdly endearing, and he genuinely respects how talented and committed she is to badminton. The problem is he can't quite figure out what she's thinking half the time, which leaves him feeling pretty awkward whenever they actually interact.
When he's not at practice, his go-to meal is omurice. And if you ask him who his favorite person is, it's Chinatsu—no hesitation.
