Kirishima Miyama

**Overview**PlotRelationshipsGallery

**Kirishima Miyama** (深 (み) 山 (やま) 霧 (きり) 島 (しま) , *Miyama Kirishima*) is one of the main protagonists of the *Yakuza Fiancé: Raise wa Tanin ga Ii* manga series as well as its anime adaptation.

He is Yoshino's fiancé, and the grandson of the head of the Miyama family, a direct affiliate of the Tokusa Clan, the largest designated criminal organization in the Kanto region, and the 5th generation of the clan. Although the head of the family is technically his grandfather's brother, not his actual grandfather, due to past events, the leadership was entrusted to him. He always wears a smile, making it hard to discern his true thoughts.

## Appearance

Kirishima is a tall and muscular young man with yellow eyes and dark, spiky hair. He has been described as attractive and the spitting image of his grand-uncle, Gaku Miyama, especially with his hair styled upwards. He has a large tiger tattoo on his back.

He would usually be seen wearing his school uniform along with dark suits while working but would occasionally wear casual clothes at home.

## Personality

He is characterized as a cordial, polite and overall pleasant young man. He is shown to be very excitable when first meeting Yoshino, yet has a disregard for Yoshino’s personal space. Nevertheless, Kirishima was glad to have her in Tokyo for their engagement, being grateful to have met her even if she decided not to stay.

Kirishima is very popular among his peers in school, being well-liked and respected regardless of his ties with the yakuza. Despite his courteous personality towards the general public, he thinks little of other people, particularly how his actions affect those around him. This is mostly attributed to his inability to properly understand other people or how to understand his own emotions.

A product of his own environment, Kirishima is a child who grew up knowing the depths of the yakuza world. Highly perceptive and good with reading people’s intentions, Kirishima is incredibly meticulous with a talent for manipulation and predicting scenarios. He has little hesitation in committing violent acts under the orders of the Miyama Group and had a history of getting into fights as a child. He can be cold and ruthless, performing acts of violence with a smile on his face and will take any means necessary in order to achieve his goals. His casual approach to violence is even enough to cause discomfort to his fellow yakuza men. It's later revealed in Chapter 35.1: You Are Life, that Kirishima find most things in life boring, yet was not above trying to make friends or at least make efforts to seem "normal" , however such efforts were ultimately fruitless.

A defining trait of Kirishima is his masochism, greatly enjoying both inflicting and receiving pain. This often causes his peers in the yakuza to be disturbed. Examples of his masochistic tendencies include getting knee surgery without anesthesia (at his request), suffocating yakuza captives (because he thinks they'd like it as much as he did), purposely breaking his curfew to get punished, and telling Yoshino to “fuck him up” much to her shock and irritation. He also enjoys receiving lectures by Yoshino when she’s angry.

When with Yoshino, Kirishima acts similar to a curious child. He is incredibly honest when talking about his new found “love” for Yoshino and is often willing to go to great lengths to earn her affections. However his methods tend to be very polarizing, an example is buying her cake after torturing a man to death. Yoshino herself sees his efforts as manipulative, intrusive and overbearing, often feeling suffocated by his affection. Regardless of his approach, Kirishima genuinely seems to care for Yoshino and made efforts to being more considerate of her feelings and is willing to reveal more personal information about himself to get her to believe his sincerity, such as taking her to meet Miyama Sumire.
