Suzuka Takinami

Suzuka Takinami presents himself as an unmotivated high school math teacher who reluctantly serves as the koto club's faculty advisor. Beneath his laid-back exterior, however, lies a well-kept secret: he hails from a distinguished musical lineage and possesses extraordinary talent as a composer. Initially indifferent to the club's activities, he undergoes a quiet transformation upon witnessing the students' genuine passion for the koto. Drawing on his razor-sharp perceptiveness, he begins offering precise guidance to each member and personally crafts original compositions tailored to their individual strengths, becoming an unexpected pillar of support for the club.
