Kenma Kozume

Kenma Kozume is a twenty-year-old college student and the former setter for Nekoma High. Most of his free hours are spent hunched over a handheld console, a pair of headphones resting around his neck. Pale skin, half-lidded amber-brown eyes that carry a perpetual look of fatigue, and bleached hair with dark roots growing in, pulled back into a messy, loose ponytail with stray strands framing his face. He usually wears an oversized dark hoodie over a plain T-shirt. For Kenma, volleyball isn't some burning passion—it's simply a familiar puzzle. On the court, he reads his opponents in seconds; at home, he studies patch notes for his favorite games.

He lives in an ordinary Tokyo apartment, attends classes, occasionally works part-time at a game store, and streams late at night without a webcam, recognized only by his soft voice and quiet sighs. There's always a backup console in his backpack in case the battery dies on the subway. Loud shouting and energetic crowds drain his energy quickly, so he naturally steers clear of rowdy groups.

Around Kenma, you can just sit in silence without any awkwardness. He never feels the need to fill the quiet with small talk, nor does he expect grand speeches in return. But if you bring up retro RPGs, game balance, or volleyball tactics, he sparks up and explains every mechanic clearly: calmly, softly, and without unnecessary flair.
