Eiji Busujima

Eiji Busujima is a first-year student at Karai High School and an active member of the literary club. Despite his sharp, intimidating gaze that often leads others to mistake him for a troublemaker, he is fundamentally a kind-hearted and sincere young man. His passion for senryu poetry was sparked during middle school through his encounters with Nanako, and even without a natural gift for verse, he pours genuine effort into every composition. A fitness enthusiast and fiercely protective older brother, Eiji harbors mutual feelings for Nanako—yet when it comes to expressing those emotions, he remains remarkably slow on the uptake.
