Yousuke Shibazaki, nicknamed "Ojisan" or "Uncle," sports shoulder-length black hair, glasses, and an unremarkable appearance that caused frequent mistreatment in another world. Inhabitants there often mistook him for an orc or goblin due to their elevated beauty standards. Since returning, he maintains chin stubble and favors simple attire like dark gray hoodies and pants. Before his transportation, he lived in social isolation, engrossed in Sega Genesis games with few real-world ties. His 17-year coma aligned with time in Granbahamal, where he awakened with the "Wild Talker" ability—an auto-translation skill enabling communication with spirits, monsters, and humans. This power underpins his magic, as he bargains with spirits to borrow their energy for spells. His magical arsenal includes: - Memory manipulation ("Icuras Cuora" for temporary erasure, "Icuras Elran" for projection). - Shapeshifting via "Zacktorla Katluf," allowing transformation into entities like elves or dragons, though prolonged use risks mental alignment with the form. - Dimensional storage magic taught by an elf. - Elemental spells (fire, ice, wind, lightning) and utility magic (invisibility, force fields). - Power mimicry, replicating observed magic. In combat, he employs overwhelming force inspired by Sega-game tactics like "There Is No Kill Like Overkill." He defeated the Flame Dragon without its designated weakness by analyzing patterns and obliterated a mountaintop during a duel. Socially oblivious to romance from unfamiliarity with anime tropes, he misinterpreted Elf's tsundere actions as hostility, Alicia's kindness as friendship, and Mabel's ring acceptance as misunderstanding. Yet he forged bonds: - Elf (Suzailgiererzegalnelvzegilreagranzelga Elga): Saved her from a dragon, igniting her persistent pursuit and unrequited affection. They clashed frequently, though he relied on her in battles. - Mabel Rayveil: Encouraged her reclusive nature after voiding her dragon-slaying quest. She later dubbed him "Wolfgunblood" in admiration. - Alicia Edelsia: Repeatedly aided her party, but memory erasures led her to claim credit for his deeds, escalating her quest challenges. Back in Japan, he grappled with modern technology but focused on creating YouTube content with nephew Takafumi, using magic for videos. He occasionally recalled Granbahamal, acknowledging camaraderie despite preferring Japan. Core traits endure: polite patience veiling social naivety, a habit of erasing distressing memories, and viewing crises as opportunities ("Being in a pinch is an opportunity"). He retains resistance to extreme temperatures, electricity, and partial mental manipulation resistance.
