Description
Medici is a member of the idol group Sekkou Boys, a unit of four Greco-Roman gypsum busts managed by the rookie art school graduate Miki Ishimoto. Modeled after Giuliano de Medici, Duke of Nemours, a historical figure from the influential Medici family of Renaissance Florence, Medici is characterized as history s original celebrity, a label that captures his background as a figure of wealth, status, and cultural prominence. As a gypsum bust, he is literally made of stone, a physical attribute that forms the basis for much of the comedy surrounding the group. Medici is often portrayed as being accustomed to luxury and privilege, and he carries himself with a certain air of sophistication and self-importance, which can sometimes lead to friction with his fellow group members. Within the group dynamic, Medici is positioned as the handsome, affluent member, contrasting with Saint Giorgio s earnest leadership, Hermes s multi-talented charm, and Mars s blunt, love-focused personality. His primary motivation is to achieve success and recognition as an idol, though his approach is occasionally colored by his privileged background. A key episode focusing on Medici involves him being offered a role in a crime drama as a murderer, a development that causes jealousy and tension among the other members, revealing that despite their unity, the group is not immune to rivalry and insecurity. These moments contribute to his development as he learns to navigate the challenges of group cooperation and the entertainment industry. Described on the Apple TV page as o belo e cheio de talentos Hermes, e Marte, o deus da guerra, porm cheio de amor para dar, the description of Medici as "the great historical celebrity" suggests he is viewed as the group s most famous or recognizable figure from history. He shares close relationships with Saint Giorgio, Mars, and Hermes, and the central relationship with their manager Miki Ishimoto is crucial to the group s story arc. Medici s notable abilities include singing and performing as part of the idol unit, and his existence as a living statue presents a unique comedic challenge for the group s activities in the entertainment world.
