Description
Nagi Rokuya hails from frigid Northmare, where summer averages 6°C and ocean swimming remains rare. His full name, Nagi Valhart von Northmeir, designates him as Northmare's second prince behind older brother Seto Ranvalt von Northmeir. His Japanese mother enabled multilingual fluency and cultural ties to Japan.
Childhood royal status bred isolation, with peers bowing and avoiding him, cementing loneliness. This void later ignited fierce attachment to IDOLiSH7, whom he cherishes as irreplaceable companions. He expresses this through mandatory nightly hugs with each member, deliberately provoking reactions like groping Iori Izumi's buttocks to trigger screams.
Nagi came to Japan to fulfill a promise to composer Haruki Sakura, whom he met in Northmare. Sakura—searching for missing idol Zero—entrusted Nagi with musical scores for Zero before vanishing during illness. Nagi intended anonymous delivery to Takanashi Productions but was scouted by CEO Otoharu Takanashi during a company evaluation visit. His initial priority was this mission over idolhood.
As an idol, he radiates flamboyant confidence, self-labeling "sexy and elegant" despite lacking dating experience. He obsessively embraces Japanese pop culture, cramming his room with anime merchandise and idolizing magical girl Cocona—once nearly skipping an outdoor festival for her limited-edition body pillow, necessitating a proxy attendee. This otaku passion coexists with emotional intelligence; he detects and mediates group conflicts, prioritizing IDOLiSH7's unity.
Trained in royal assassination prevention, Nagi wields advanced combat skills including hand-to-hand defense and firearms. During a bomb threat, he shielded Yamato Nikaido from sniper fire and subdued attackers while forbidding them from speaking his name. He speaks eight languages fluently: Northmarean, English, German, Norwegian, French, Italian, Japanese, and Chinese.
His adaptation to Japan includes enduring summer heat with Mitsuki Izumi's aid and experiencing childlike wonder during his first beach visit. Professionally, he leveraged Northmare's monthly public engagements—meeting citizens—to become Takanashi Productions' PR manager, exhibiting dignified authority during press conferences.
Secret parallels exist with Yamato; both conceal royal pasts and entertainment-industry disillusionment. Nagi suspects Yamato is a famous actor's son, while Yamato questions Nagi's royalty. Strained ties with his eldest brother hint at Northmare monarchy succession conflicts or legitimacy disputes.
He shares aristocratic refinement sensibilities with Sogo Osaka and bonds with Tamaki Yotsuba over shared fears like ghost stories—ironically requesting "chilling tales" from Sogo, which led to nightly trauma via "100 Ghost Stories" readings.
