Description
Kiyoshi Adachi, a 30-year-old sales support staff member at stationary company Toyokawa, gains an unexpected magical ability upon his 30th birthday while still a virgin: physical contact forces him to involuntarily hear others' internal thoughts. He finds this power disruptive, especially in crowded spaces like trains. Haunted by low self-esteem stemming from past romantic rejections—including overhearing a college crush dismiss him as undesirable—he withdrew from relationships. An introverted, shy individual prone to social flustering, he remains a conscientious and dependable employee.
His life shifts when accidental contact with popular colleague Yuuichi Kurosawa reveals Kurosawa’s intense romantic feelings for him. Overwhelmed by disbelief due to his ingrained insecurity, Adachi initially distances himself. Subsequent interactions—including Kurosawa nursing him through illness and shared work meals—gradually lead Adachi to accept and reciprocate those feelings. He eventually confesses, sparking a relationship that profoundly impacts his self-perception. Kurosawa’s consistent affection helps Adachi build confidence and reduce negative self-talk, while his wardrobe evolves from simple casual wear to more stylish attire.
Physically, Adachi has medium-length black hair partially covering his left eye, blue eyes, thick eyebrows, and a distinctive mole on his neck’s left side. His relationship with Kurosawa progresses to marriage and cohabitation. After losing his virginity to Kurosawa, his mind-reading ability vanishes permanently.
Beyond this romance, Adachi maintains a close bond with college best friend Masato Tsuge—the sole confidant of his magical power—and supports Tsuge’s writing career and pursuit of love interest Minato. He shares a supportive relationship with younger brother Kazuya Adachi, strengthened after their parents’ divorce during his childhood. Additional details include blood type A, a preference for Japanese cuisine, and fandom of the manga series *Zombie Dead*.
