Description
Kenta Fushimi is the protagonist of the adult anime series Fleshdance, which is also known by its original Japanese title, Shimaizuma: Shimaizuma 3 The Animation. He is portrayed as a young adult art school student of average build with brown hair, typically dressed casually in t-shirts, jeans, and sports shoes. His eyes are often hidden or obscured in his visual depictions.

In terms of background, Kenta dreams of becoming a successful artist and seeks creative inspiration in the world around him. To pursue this goal, he travels to a mansion with the ambition of becoming the apprentice to a renowned and successful painter. However, during the master’s absence, his role in the household is ambiguous; he is called upon to serve as a housekeeper and a servant, and he is treated as such by the family. His childhood was unusual, as his parents took him to various unexplored places, which contributed to a resilient and physically tough constitution.

Kenta has a personality characterized by being a positive thinker, a daydreamer, and an optimist. He has a tendency to fantasize about situations and often envisions outcomes that are favorable to himself. He looks up to his own parents as role models and holds a longing for a peaceful life that embodies elegance and the Japanese aesthetic of wabi-sabi.

His primary motivation within the story is artistic, but it quickly becomes intertwined with his romantic and sexual encounters. Upon meeting the painter’s wife, he becomes seduced by her beauty and her skills as an exotic dancer. This encounter sparks his creativity but soon overshadows his artistic pursuits, leading him to engage in a series of physical relationships. His narrative role is defined by the netori archetype, meaning he engages in romantic or sexual conquests by stealing a significant other away from their partner.

Regarding key relationships, Kenta is taken under the wing of the painter, whose name is Aoi, though he serves more as a domestic servant than a true artistic pupil. The central relationship is with the painter’s wife, whose beauty and dancing captivate him entirely. His exploits eventually expand beyond a single partner, and he soon becomes involved with any woman within his reach. As for notable abilities, while he is an art student with a desire to create, his most prominent skill set relates to his physical resilience and his success in amorous pursuits, earning him a reputation for learning the horizontal tango.
