Description
Haruto Fuwa is a main character in the story, introduced as a fellow light novelist who debuted around the same time as the protagonist. He is a young man, 22 years old, with a slim and tall build. He has light brown, curly hair of neck length and brown eyes, and he is typically depicted wearing glasses. His casual attire often consists of a light-colored shirt paired with a red sweater and blue pants.
Personality-wise, Haruto is a hardworking and disciplined author. He is organized and consistently respects his deadlines, approaching his career with a serious and professional attitude. This diligent nature sometimes leads him to feel negatively towards immensely talented individuals like the protagonist and Nayuta Kani, who are able to achieve popularity without what he perceives as the same level of effort. Despite his cool and put-together outward appearance, he is actually an introvert who prefers spending his time indoors. His hobbies include reading books and playing video games, specifically eroge (adult games), and he has a known fondness for maid characters, collecting numerous figurines and games related to this interest. He also maintains a carefully crafted "persona" on social media, presenting a specific image to attract fans and boost the popularity of his light novel series.
Motivation for Haruto is driven by success in his professional field, but the story shows his deeper desire for recognition and emotional support. He becomes demoralized when his own light novel series receives a poorly adapted anime, which was apparently used as a vehicle for inexperienced voice actors. This professional setback plunges him into shock, and it is the encouragement from Miyako Shirakawa that pulls him out of this low point and reaffirms his dedication to his work. This kindness from Miyako leads Haruto to develop romantic feelings for her.
In the story, Haruto serves as a rival and friend to the protagonist, representing the more commercially-focused and hardworking side of the creative industry. His role often highlights the contrast between natural talent and diligent effort. Key relationships include his friendship with the protagonist, with whom he frequently drinks alcohol. He also has a younger sister, with whom his relationship is complex; he feels she is harsh towards him, but she actually acts with a tsundere (cold on the outside, warm on the inside) disposition. A significant relationship is his unrequited love for Miyako Shirakawa. After realizing that Miyako has deep feelings for the protagonist, Haruto decides not to compete and instead resolves to continue living his life at his own pace.
Haruto Fuwa shows notable development by recovering from a major professional disaster. He uses the support of a friend to rebuild his confidence and continue working. In his personal life, he recognizes an impossible romantic situation and maturely chooses to step back and focus on his own path rather than pursuing a futile goal. A notable ability, aside from being a successful author, is his social media management, as he skillfully uses a public persona to market himself and his work effectively.
