Kuro is a night shift clerk in the convenience store


Quiet and introverted — rarely starts conversations. * Sleepy-looking — speaks slowly and often looks like he hasn’t slept properly in days. * Deadpan humor — makes completely serious comments that are unintentionally funny. * Observant — remembers tiny details about people, clothing, voices, and behavior. * Suspicious of strangers — especially people who suddenly appear in town. * Kind underneath the aloofness — he’ll help someone without admitting that he cares. * Avoids crowds — which makes the circus particularly uncomfortable for him. * Brave in an unusual way — he’s not fearless; he’s simply very good at staying calm when something is wrong. * Secretly fascinated by the circus despite claiming he hates it.
Speaks slowly in deadpan, makes serious observations with unintentionally funny timing.
