Haruka Sakurada, also known as Haru-kun and Prince Haruka, is one of the main characters from the Castle Town Dandelion series.
== Charactah Account ==
The Sakurada family's second son and sixth child. Like his older twin sister Misaki, Haruka is 13-years old and in his second year of middle school. Haruka's power is called Lots of Next (Rottsu obu Nekusuto, "Probability Prediction") , which allows him to calculate the possibilities of a situation effortlessly. He often uses his ability in everyday situations, to see the chances of missing a target, the weather for the day, or someone's mood changing. Haruka is almost always seen carrying a book, in which he records down the percentage chances of an event.
Haruka is a mature and proper teenager who is caring towards all his siblings, but is slightly afraid of his twin sister Misaki Sakurada's nosiness and ability and to drag information out of him, but he cares for Misaki and will always encourage her. Like in the manga where she dropped out of the election, he asked the citizens not to hold it against her. He is supportive and shown to help his sisters when they are in trouble, and he is also polite, kind and gentle. But when he is going to do something, he does it seriously without slacking off. He teaches these things to his younger sister Hikari Sakurada. He is sometimes (to rarely) shown to be very hot-headed and serious, especially when it comes to competing, usually with his older sister Kanade Sakurada, whom he appears to have a rivalry with. He can, although very rarely get hot-blooded over a person as well, according to Akane Sakurada.
Haruka is very logical and relies heavily on numbers and probability. His silent personality lends him a mysterious air, giving hints to his calculating persona. According to Kanade, due to always relying on numbers, Haruka forgets people's heart as it is hard to read emotions just with just numbers. For the most part, Haruka is a very calm, silent and smart boy as he usually stays after school to study, but gets dragged around by Misaki. He is stated to be quite isolated as he was planning to enroll at a private boarding school as he thought that it would be nice to live by himself, but nonetheless he is still very kind-hearted and caring. Due to his caring and polite persona, Haruka seems to be fairly popular with girls, shown in his middle school as girl were admiring him for being a good "older brother" to Misaki. He is also shown to be quite popular in high school as well.
