Shigetora Maruo

Shigetora Maruo is a classmate of protagonist Kaoru Nishimi — a bespectacled, slightly chubby boy who gives off an easygoing, unassuming vibe. As an enthusiastic member of the radio club, he dedicates himself to collecting QSL cards and once invited Kaoru to join. Beneath his laid-back exterior, however, lies a remarkable secret: inspired by his older brother, Maruo has quietly honed extraordinary guitar skills that he unleashes at the school festival, stunning everyone with an unexpected burst of brilliance.
