Description
Citron is an exchange student from an unspecified foreign country, noted for his dark skin, sandy blond hair, and blue eyes. He typically dresses in traditional Indian or Pakistani-style garments, often accented with gold jewelry set with gemstones. His background is largely a mystery, though he states he fled his homeland to evade being crowned king, abandoning royal responsibilities and his pet leopard, Juliano. This escape brought him to Japan without a permanent residence before joining the Mankai Company's Spring Troupe.
As the Spring Troupe's mood-maker, Citron lightens group dynamics with frequent Japanese language mistakes and word misuses, like confusing "rifle" for "rival." He actively studies Japanese and participates enthusiastically in acting despite these challenges. His personality contrasts sharply with the serious Tsuzuru Minagi, creating a boke/tsukkomi comedic dynamic. While generally open and optimistic, his enigmatic nature fosters a subtle distance from others. He deeply values the Mankai Company as a "very very warm place" and expresses gratitude toward his troupe members.
Citron's notable performances include Friar Laurence in *Romeo and Julius*, the King of Hearts in *Alex in Wonderland*, and King Arthur in *Knights of the Round IV*. He later expressed interest in dialogue-heavy roles like a "chatty pelican." His growth became evident during the Veludo Way Music Festival when he composed an original piece inspired by Spring Troupe members. After losing the sheet music, he improvised melodies reflecting each member's essence—Sakuya's positivity, Masumi's emotional complexity, Tsuzuru's warmth, Itaru's gaming motifs, and Chikage's layered personality—demonstrating deepened bonds and observational skill.
He shares Room 101 with Sakuya Sakuma and admires Homare Arisugawa's poetry, Itaru Chigasaki's gaming skills, and Tsuzuru Minagi's wit. Citron maintains cheerful interactions with all troupe members, though occasional linguistic deceptions complicate trust. His hobbies include learning Japanese words from dictionaries and exploring world maps online. He enjoys sweet shrimp nigiri sushi but dislikes pig's feet.
Over time, his occupation evolved from exchange student to International Minister of Arts and Culture. Trivia includes creating a doll named "Citron Jr.," misdrawing a horse while labeling it "ウユ" (intending "ウマ"), and enjoying sushi, tempura, and rakugo upon arriving in Japan.
