Description
Kan Sudo serves as the homeroom teacher for Kana Koumoto and her group of friends in FLCL Alternative. He is a fairly average educator with a striking appearance, possessing a sharp jawline, thick brown eyebrows, messy brown hair that resembles a bowl cut, and eyes that border between a dark blue and grey. His fashion sense is notably casual for a teacher, as he typically wears a light-blue polo shirt and jeans to work. On occasion, such as at school basketball games, he dons a black sports jacket, and he is shown to be surprisingly muscular during a class pool break when relaxing in a speedo.
His personality is defined by a laid-back attitude and a deep understanding of young people, which fosters a mutual respect between him and his students. He remains calm even when raising his voice to reign in the class and is never seen issuing harsh reprimands. Instead of acting as a strict authority figure, he speaks to his students on a personal level, demonstrating respect for them as soon-to-be adults and expressing a belief in their potential.
He possesses a wicked side that adds flair to his teaching methods. He motivates the class to participate in mundane activities by framing them as surprises, complete with an intriguing, wild look in his eyes. For his own amusement, he has been known to add difficult subjects to tests at the last minute. However, this mischievousness is balanced by genuine flexibility and understanding, as shown in a conversation with Kana where he proves to be lenient with assignment due dates.
In the story, Kan Sudo acts as an adult presence who observes and interacts with the young cast during their final days of high school. His most notable act of dedication occurs when the Earth faces imminent destruction. While most societal structures break down, Kan stays and continues his job as a teacher for the few students who bother to spend their last day following routines, even if he seems to share their disinterest and is present more in form than in spirit. His key relationships are with his students, particularly Kana and her friends, as their homeroom teacher. He connects with them through his unconventional teaching style and his refusal to treat them as mere children, showing an equal measure of respect and occasional playful torment. He has no notable superhuman abilities, his primary function being that of a grounded, if quirky, educator who guides from the sidelines.
