Nanashi is quite short, standing at 156 cm. He has white hair and pink eyes. He wears a white jacket which is pink on the inside and a strange bitphone, resembling rabbit ears, which he designed himself. It is revealed in Chapter 2 that the attire he always wears under his parka is his school uniform, simply because he had nothing else to wear. He also wears blue socks and white boots with pink lining. He has a star on the right side of his face below his eye.
Personality[]
Nanashi is a reclusive and altruistic boy. He is always positive. However, even though he is nice to others, he is pretty harsh on himself and puts himself down most of the time, easily referring to himself as garbage and accepting the horrible nicknames others used to call him with a happy-go-lucky attitude. He is an extreme people pleaser, willing to do anything to make others happy.
Background[]
Before Nanashi moved in with Mikado, he lived in Mashiro Town.
Nanashi lives with his cousin, Mikado. His former classmates asked him to leave school altogether, and so he did, resulting in him becoming a shut-in. He didn't leave the house for months, until he found Misane on his bed and she asked him to leave the house to make some friends.
Nanashi's first actual friend. Misane is an important character in the game and in Nanashi's life, as she is the one who first encouraged him to go outside. If Misane did not go back to the past, Nanashi would probably still be shut inside his and Mikado's apartment.
