Description
Shōgo Yumekawa is the older brother of Yui Yumekawa and a student at Avocado Academy. He performs as a member, and often the center, of the male idol unit WITH, despite Koyoi Takase holding the official leadership role. His appearance features striking turquoise eyes and pale blonde hair styled with several locks primarily on the right side; the left side is brushed back, revealing his ear and falling to mid-neck length.
Publicly, Shōgo projects a charming, kind persona, adeptly engaging fans and navigating difficult situations to uphold his image. Privately, however, he possesses a short temper, particularly when his reputation is challenged or his goals obstructed. His relationship with his younger sister Yui is deeply strained, marked by frequent belittlement, expressions of embarrassment over her actions, and dismissal of her idol aspirations. This includes condescending behavior and emotional bullying. Despite this conflict, he has assisted her on occasion, such as escorting her through Super Idol Time and exchanging Friend Tickets during critical moments.
Before joining WITH, Shōgo nearly relocated overseas to join Dapapur's DanPri. When these plans collapsed, future teammates Koyoi and Asahi Mitaka supported him through the resulting difficulties, leading him to remain in Paparajuku and formally join WITH. His dedication to the unit is intense, exemplified by rigorous training like performing daily pull-ups for three hours in an attempt to increase his height.
Shōgo's character evolves across official media, especially in the spin-off *Idol Land PriPara*, where he transitions into a primary role focused on saving Yui, highlighting his underlying dedication to his sister despite their fraught dynamic.
His birthday is November 23, making his zodiac sign Sagittarius, a date shared with characters from other franchises. He favors rice and crepes. Embarrassing childhood incidents revealed by Yui include bedwetting, pleading to play with her and her friends, scoring zero on an unnamed test, crying when splashed with water, and falling during a race. He harbors a fear of rollercoasters. Judging by his jewel, he specializes as a lovely-type idol. Nicknames include "Sweet Sugar Boy" and "Botamochi Kozou." His surname "Yumekawa" combines "dream" (yume) and "river" (kawa), while his given name "Shōgo" means "noon," aligning with the time theme of *Idol Time PriPara*.
