Personality

Haruki is kind and pure-hearted. He is carefree and cheerful both in his interactions with others and playing bass guitar, humming in occasion depending on his whim. Haruki is considerate, compassionate and nurturing to those he cares for, so he likes spoiling his friends and in particular Akihiko. Sometimes he can be shy, blushing when flattered or touched by Akihiko who, in accordance with Yatake Koji, says that his reactions are cute. He is supportive and hardworking when it comes to his band, acting as a mediator in Ritsuka and Mafuyu's quarrels and promoting the band online. On the other hand, Haruki shows to be insecure about himself and his music skills compared to the other members of the band. Deeply sensitive, Haruki tries to hide his true feelings and emotions (like sadness or anger) behind casual smiles.
