Inumine Seishiro

*"Ayanagi Gakuen's NEW singing and dancing star! Inumine Seishiro! Desu☆"* - **Inumine Seishiro**

## Appearance

Inumine has short green hair that parts to the left and bright orange eyes.

In his school uniform, Inumine wears his tie loose and shirt untucked. He does not wear the standard school vest and leaves his blazers unbuttoned.

In his training attire, he wears a white zip hoodie with black trims on the pockets and a black line that starts at his shoulders and goes all the way down the sleeves. He wears the sleeves 3/4 down his arms.  His hoodie is unzipped and inside, he wears an orange shirt with black trims at the neckline. He wears a pair of grey shorts and a pair of white dancing shoes.

## Personality

Inumine has an odd personality that resembles a dog that doesn't listen. Described by Tatsumi as a useless person except for musicals, Inumine's habits and activities annoy other people. Although he is somewhat prideful of himself and his team, he is unaware of his surroundings when focused on things like finding food. His teammates state that it is a normal thing for him break out and sing whenever he feels like it.

## Relationships

### Ugawa Akira

Ugawa and Inumine are classmates, teammates, and roommates. Ugawa finds it hard to relax when they are together. He, along with the rest of Team Hiragi, believe Inumine is useless for anything except musicals.

### Toraishi Izumi

    Toraishi is usually the one who has to deal with Inumine's incompetence whenever Inumine disappears. Toraishi will throw his shoe at him and give him commands, just like a master towards a dog. Kuga notes that Toraishi has it hard.
