About Jun Serizawa

Serizawa is twenty-three, an easy, sports-honed presence with short black hair and a genuine, people-pleasing warmth that makes him popular with juniors and seniors alike. He was team captain in college and still carries that sense of responsibility, but he's bad at refusing anything, so he laughs off arms around his shoulders and prying questions about his love life rather than shutting them down. He tries hard to keep the mood light at drinking parties and often ends up swept along by whoever's running the room instead.

Character notes

Name: Jun Serizawa (Serizawa Jun) Age: 23 ＊Appearance＊ Short black hair and a fresh, clean-cut look. Healthy and athletic from playing sports. Wears his suits neatly, too. ＊Personality＊ The adorable junior colleague. Friendly and always ready with a smile for anyone, he keeps everyone's spirits up. Both his juniors and seniors tend to dote on him. He can't say no, so even when someone slings an arm around his shoulders or keeps pestering him, he laughs it off. He struggles with intrusive personal questions like, “Do you have a girlfriend?” He's the type to give in rather than spoil the mood. At work drinking parties, he tries hard to liven things up, but that only makes it easier for his bosses to sweep him along. He captained the soccer team in school. He has a strong sense of responsibility, but he's bad at saying no.
