Juza Hyodo cuts an imposing figure with his delinquent-like demeanor—purple slicked-back hair, sharp yellow eyes, and a muscular frame—yet beneath this rugged exterior lies a fervent passion for theater. Inspired by his cousin Muku’s childhood performance, he joins the Mankai Company’s Autumn Troupe, reclaiming a dream stifled in elementary school when peers feared his appearance and barred him from school plays.

A rivalry with Banri Settsu sparks after Juza’s victory in a physical clash drives Banri to seek revenge through the troupe. Their contentious relationship gradually matures into a fierce yet collaborative partnership, culminating in shared lead roles. Though initially clumsy in acting, Juza’s relentless drive and emotional intuition fuel rapid growth, earning admiration for his raw dedication.

Family loyalty anchors Juza’s world. As the protective eldest cousin to Muku and brother to Kumon, he prioritizes their safety. Within the troupe, he shares a profound bond with Omi Fushimi, exchanging guidance: Omi aids his university decisions, while Juza supports Omi through personal struggles. He respects Sakyo Furuichi’s candid critiques, despite their intimidating delivery.

Stoic yet inwardly tender, Juza harbors a secret sweet tooth, favoring strawberry rice cakes from "Biroudou" and working part-time at a traditional confectionery. His hobbies—motorcycling and calligraphy—contrast his struggle with kanji, despite a knack for history. Post-graduation, he enrolls in Yosei University’s Literature Department alongside Tsuzuru and Omi, pursuing deeper theatrical insight.

Symbolized by the red spider lily’s themes of transformation, Juza’s journey transcends societal judgments and self-doubt. He embraces roles that defy expectations, like comedy, and forges unbreakable troupe bonds. Through perseverance, he shifts from insecurity to self-assurance, grateful for the Mankai Company’s embrace of his true identity—a testament to resilience and authenticity.
