## Relationships

**Kiyama Asa**- Haruto met Kiyama Asa in his first year of middle school. At the time she was on the softball team and met Haruto through after-school practice. After being friends for about a year, Haruto had began to develop feelings for her and was about to confess in the fall of their second year of middle school. That is until Evanoff Goro transfered into the school and started to flirt and hit on Asa. Goro, being the handsome guy he is, makes Haruto unconfident in confessing his feelings to Asa, as he thinks that she deserves better. Due to his he declares Goro as his rival and challenges in a battle everyday.

**Evanoff Goro**- In the second year of middle school, Evanoff Goro transferred to Haruto's middle school, foiling Haruto's plans to confess to Kiyama Asa due to his constant flirting. Because of this, Haruto proclaims to be the rival of Goro and consistently bugs him into small battles and even physical fights. To be honest, Goro doesn't mind and even finds him a little cute. He thinks of Haruto like a puppy, and even willing play into these "battles".

## BackStory

Yoshihara Haruto comes from a middle-poor class backround. His biological father passed away when he was 6 years old from a car accident. His older brother and him are full brothers while the rest of his siblings are half-brothers and half-sisters. His mother remarried when he was 9, and had his first younger brother a year later. His family in total are: Mom, Step-dad, 2 younger sisters, 1 older brother, and 5 younger brothers. With his brother studying to become a doctor and his parents being to busy with work to make money, he became the head of the house. He was in charge of doing laundry, cooking, cleaning, and making sure his younger siblings stayed out of trouble! Because of this he is mature and is like the motherhen of all of his friends. He becomes a little uncomfortable towards affection since he never really got spoiled when he was younger, so if you spoil him, he will most likely not know how to respond and become very embarrassed!

During his middle school years he got really into baseball. His dream is to become a professional baseball player, and is right now the captain of the baseball club. Currently, he is aiming for Koshien and is planning on winning!

## Personality

Yoshihara Haruto is a kind, charismatic, leader who loves to help people. He loves interacting with people and likes making small talk with his classmates and the shopkeepers at the shopping district. Haruto isn't the type to get emotional easily and usually hides how he feels about certain topics and things people say that offend him. But despite being careful with his words, there are times where he can be blunt about things and hurt anothers feelings without realizing it. If he feels that he was being rude and was in the wrong he will try to do everything to apologize for what he said.

He does NOT tolerate people who talk smack about the people he cares and knows personally, if you do he will call you out on it and will intimidate you until you apologize. He knows a lot the student body and is on good terms with about everyone, so if he start to give you the silent treatment and starts to ignore you, people with definitely know you did something wrong, and you will be looked at warily by the other students.

## In-game role

Yoshihara Haruto is NOT an official character in *Love Letter: My True Feelings*, he is an original character that I made for fun, and if he is used, I hope that this will be the what the character is like or become a base for them.

Being the captain of the Baseball club you will have to talk to him to become a baseball member. Through becoming a member of the club, you will be able to obtain the item 'Bat' easily and can be accessed at anytime of the day. Joining the club will also increase your strength and stanima.

Haruto is already crushing on another student(Kiyama Asa) so he is not a threat towards Bow-chan's pursuit towards Sempai.

Although Haruto is is kind and friendly towards everyone, if you are not a close friend of his he will not do tasks for you and will also find you suspicious if you walk around with the bat during the school day and in the school hallways. He will question you on why you have the bat, and if you respond in a way that he does not like, he will ask to take the bat away and you will be unable to access the bat during the school day until you raise your friendship with Haruto.

Being a moderately strong student, if he sees you with a dangerous item, attacking a student, or witnessed you kill another person he will take you down and disarm you until the police arrive to arrest you. It will be an automatic game over.

Lowering this student's reputation will lead the student to being isolated by other students and teachers. Lower it low enough, he will be stripped of his captain title and be ignored by his friends and crush, leading to him becoming depressed and suicidal. This will be hard to do since he is beloved and trusted by everyone in town to achieve this feat, you must have a VERY high reputation, and must have hard evidence(whether that is real or you framed him) to be able to destroy his reputation.

Becoming friends with Haruto will allow you to ask for simple tasks and favors from him, he will do them with no questions. Becoming best friends with him will lead to Haruto talking highly about you, raising your reputation quickly, he will also tell Sempai about how great and amazing you are.

Being on bad terms with Haruto will not be good for the player. He will spread rumors and tell the truth about who you are and what you plan on doing, which the student body will believe and will become wary of you and immensely lower your reputation.
