Description
Ren Kitahara is a second-year Musical Department student at Ayanagi Academy, assigned to Team Sazanami. He stands 176 cm tall with red-purple hair and Persian green eyes. Born on April 22, he is a Taurus with blood type B.

Outwardly lazy and condescending, he habitually critiques others' flaws using the word "guilty" and initially avoids full effort in performances, believing talent alone suffices—as seen during "Shadow and Lights." Yet beneath this lies fierce determination; once motivated, he becomes relentless in overcoming obstacles.

He attended Ayanagi Middle School, rooming with Tsukigami, and now shares a dorm with Toraishi Izumi. Izumi's frequent phone calls with a girlfriend disrupt Kitahara's privacy, irritating him. His family includes a police officer father and two sisters, with Kitahara admitting he cannot surpass his father or an unnamed senpai in strength. He maintains complex relationships with peers, teasing Izumi, Ugawa, and Hachiya for stress relief.

Academically challenged, he pushes to improve due to Ayanagi's competitive environment. He excels in physical education and music, demonstrating dexterity by repairing his own clothes and shoes. Daily habits involve checking his phone immediately upon waking and prioritizing sleep over meals. He favors affordable nerimono dishes and hot barley tea. Leisure time includes part-time work, gym visits, or socializing with teammates.

During dorm-moving preparations in "Storytellers," his dismissive remark about a missing team photo causes Nakakoji Haruma distress. This incident inadvertently fosters mutual understanding between Teams Sazanami and Yuzuriha, subtly advancing Kitahara’s recognition of team bonds by year’s end.

His performances include "TERRITORY" (duet with Toraishi), "FACE-OFF" (with Kuga and Toraishi), "REFLECTION" (duet with Nanjo Koki), "Storytellers" (with Ageha, Hachiya, and Nanjo), and group songs "Gift ~Ageha x Hachiya x Kitahara x Nanjo Ver.~" and "Gift ~Curtain Call~."
