Yuuma Kuga

Yuuma Kuga, also known as Albino Shrimp, C-Class White Devil, Cougar, Midget, Shrimp and White Nightmare, is the main protagonist from the World Trigger series.
== Charactah Account ==
Yuuma is a humanoid neighbor from an unknown world who illegally came to Earth and joined the same class as Osamu.
Yuuma has a laid back personality and is not very knowledgeable about Japanese customs, being from another world (despite having a Japanese father), leading to some run-ins with rough people. He is logical, advising Mikumo to stay away from the trion Battle Soldier rather than save the students as Mikumo could die. He seems to be aligned with Border's cause, fighting against Neighbor forces. Despite his happy exterior, he is actually deeply depressed due to his father's sacrifice to revive him.
Initially, Yuuma's only sense of purpose was to revive his father, as he felt tremendous responsibility for his death. However, after meeting Osamu, Yuuma decides that his purpose is to support Osamu in his goal.

== Trivia ==
* "Yuuma" is a combination of two words meaning "to play" and "real, genuine", together his name means "to play for real" or "playing real," which relates to his attitude as a member of Border. "Kuga" is a combination of "sky" and "leisure".
* The creator, Daisuke Ashihara, mentioned that even without Yuuma's postponed phase, he would have kept Yuuma at the same height if it were not a part of the plot.
** He also stated that he himself does not think of Yuuma as small, but incorporates the concept of characters referring to him as so to show that height does not matter—also seen as how Yuuma lets it slide, instead of viewing it as an asset.
* Yuuma has a habit of doing duckfaces, which have become a meme among the manga's fans.
* Yuuma tends to scare people with his eyes.
* Yuuma's "UMA" hoodie might be a reference to his name, as UMA and Yuuma are homophonous in Japanese.
* Yuuma apparently dislikes being called "senpai," as he tells Midorikawa to call him just "Yuuma" when the latter calls him "Yuuma-senpai".
** Ironically, Yuuma previously ordered Midorikawa to call Osamu "senpai" should he defeat him in battle.
* Yuuma likes Japanese food.
* Yuuma came second in the First Popularity Poll.
* Yuuma does not need to sleep, due to his natural body being made of Trion as well.
* Yuuma's nicknames in the Anime are "C-Rank White Devil" and "White Nightmare". During Season 2, he is also called "Cougar" by Ouji.
