Description
Iori Haijima is a third-year student in the Artist course at Eisen High School, where he specializes in Perception Art. He is considered a young genius in his field, having worked as a professional artist even before obtaining the necessary license, a rare exception granted to him because he received formal instruction in Perception Art from early childhood.
Physically, Iori stands at 182 centimeters tall with a birthday on September 24th. He possesses purple hair and purple eyes, presented as an older teenage character with an appearance that fits the bishounen archetype. His personality is defined by a strong awareness of his own considerable talent and a confidence in how to best utilize it, which often manifests as a haughty or proud demeanor. Despite this arrogance, or perhaps because of it, he exudes a charismatic charm that other characters and fans find appealing, sometimes described as an outlaw-like allure.
In the narrative, Iori has a significant and complicated relationship with the grader Kyo Takise. The two were former partners who participated together in a Staircaser Contest two years prior to the main events of the story. This past partnership has left a lasting tension between them, with Kyo notably not being fond of Iori, even as Iori remains strangely involved in Kyo's affairs. Iori also works professionally with a grader named Takumi Yura, with whom he forms an effective pair for their artistic creations.
Iori plays a pivotal role in the story as a respected upperclassman and a professional whose work exemplifies the potential of Perception Art. His own exhibition serves as a central focus in one episode, demonstrating the interactive and impactful nature of Perception Art as a performance medium. His abilities as an artist are highly regarded by peers and younger students alike, such as the first-year artist Kazuya Yamanashi, who looks up to him greatly. Iori is depicted as a magician-like figure whose artistic creations are powerful and captivating, reinforcing his status as an exceptional talent within the world of Perception Art.
