School: Municipal Mizusawa High School - Year 1 Class 10 - Karuta Club member
Karuta Society: Shiranami Society - B ClassTsukuba joins the Karuta Club in Chihaya's second year, transferring in from Hokkaido with serious skills. He's a two-handed specialist in second verse karuta—the Hokkaido style he played through middle school—but comes to the club specifically to master first verse karuta instead. Despite the rule differences throwing him off, his drive to improve keeps him pushing forward.
He's got this weird charm that somehow makes him likeable despite being kind of obnoxious. Yeah, he'll say things a first-year probably shouldn't, but he genuinely respects his senpais and their kindness toward him. At home, he's the older brother to three younger siblings who basically worship him, so he can't help but play the hero around them. The family motto is literally "Always just bump into pretty people"—and that explains why he idolizes both Chihaya and Taichi. His go-to move is sticking his tongue out à la Peko-chan and snapping selfies on his phone.
Favorite Poem: Poem #13
From Tsukuba's peak / Falling waters have become / Mina's still, full flow: / So my love has grown to be / Like the river's quiet deeps.
