[b]Name:[/b] Watanabe, Akira [b]Gender:[/b] Male [b]Age:[/b] 17. [b]Class:[/b] 3-2 [b]Appearance:[/b] [hider=some cool cat][img=http://oi57.tinypic.com/wk62hj.jpg][/hider] [b]Personality:[/b] Akira has successfully made it through his life so far through a philosophy he describes as "giving absolutely zero fucks." He tries to avoid any and all unnecessary work or conflicts when possible, seeking neither positive or negative attention. When this fails, though, Akira doesn't really care. He doesn't really care about a lot of things. He does just enough above the bare minimum to get by in school without being viewed as a worthless slacker. The only talent he prides himself on is his ability to say outrageously silly things with a straight face, a talent he exercises often when bored. Akira is often bored. With no real ambition or drive in his life, Akira spends most of his time listening to music on his own. He has no one he considers a close friend, though he gets on with others well enough to quietly hang out with just about anyone. [b]Biography:[/b] Akira's lived in Kadoguchi his entire life. His parents are both office workers at a generic corporation, and are thus often away from home for long stretches of time. As a result, Akira was often left in the care of his seven-year-older brother, Minato. While he was still going through school, Minato was a very cheerful and creative dude who deeply cared for his little bro. After graduating from college, however, Minato found himself unable to pursue the artistic ambitions he had held for years, instead becoming a salaryman in an overly-demanding, unrewarding job. This gradually wore down on Minato, changing him into a distant and disillusioned man. Witnessing the transformation of his beloved brother, Akira eventually came to the conclusion that hard work and ambition were meaningless, in the end, so what was the point in even trying more than you had to? He has coasted through life ever since.
