Kenya Kobayashi

**Kenya Kobayashi** is Satoru Fujinuma's primary school classmate and best friend who has a strong sense of justice. He is an aspiring lawyer who has a keen eye, and noticed abnormalities due to Satoru acting much more mature than he was after "Revival". He offered a lot of help to Satoru in stopping the possible kidnapping attempts. As an adult, Kenya became a lawyer.

## Personality

Kenya is a calm and level headed person, who is usually seen wearing a neutral expression on his face and is quite sharp for his age. He often prevents Satoru Fujinuma from doing reckless things, along with being one of the more observant people, noticing Satoru's strange behavior and shift in personality after traveling back in time. Although being one of the first to discover Kayo Hinazuki's poor home life, Kobayashi distanced himself from her situation, believing that a Kenya should act beforehand and being cautious of the situation. He often seen studying in his youth and striving to be number one in sports and academics, but felt empty regardless of how much praise or good results he received. Kenya tended to look down on others, often feeling a sense of superiority, though he never said or showed this through his actions. However, after becoming friends with Satoru's group, Kenya learned to loosen up and understand friendship. One of his interests in joining the group was due to their different interests and each having a different quality he never had, causing him to be more humble. Through Satoru's actions, he begins to become courageous, willing to take action rather than play it safe and ignore the kidnappings and Kayo's abuse. When Satoru wakes up after his 15 year coma, Kenya showed his kindness and offered him his support.

## History

Kenya comes from a house with a lawyer father, a homemaker mother and younger sister. His father works hard and rarely interacts with his family, but Kenya respects him nonetheless. His mother preferred wearing plain clothes and made him home-cooked meals. At some point, he distant himself for his younger sister though he often took care of her.

Following Satoru Fujinuma's rerun, Kenya is seen with Satoru's group of friends, reading a book and he was the first one to notice Satoru's interest in Kayo Hinazuki. He was also the one who stopped their friends from teasing him about it. Since he had a keen eye, he had already noticed Kayo's bruises and quickly noticed the difference in his friend's behavior and confronted him about it. After Satoru explains things to him, he offers to help him achieve his goal. He stopped Satoru when he tried to attack Akemi Hinazuki (Kayo's mother) and suggested the hideout for Kayo after he heard of Satoru's plans.

After Satoru wakes up, Kenya visits his old friend multiple times and works with him to catch Gaku Yashiro.

Rules

**Spellcheck** - A large amount of typos can be a real deal-breaker for new viewers, please spellcheck your edits preferably before submitting them, if this cannot be done or if you are unsure of the proper spelling, use an spell check website.

**Fact > Opinion** - Avoid making edits that use personal opinion that cannot be cited or corroborated from the manga itself(or other official works such as the Data book), this is important for the "trivia" and "relationships" sections of character pages especially.

**Chronological Order** - When editing a character's bio section, make sure that newer information is near the bottom and older material at the top of the article, flashbacks for example. Information added from the newest chapters obviously are at the last.

**Redundant information** - Avoid repeating statements or information that have already been added to an article, as it gets repetitive. This is okay if the repeated information is from different sections.

**It's not personal.** - If someone re-edited the information that you added to an article, don't get mad. Some admins/editors (myself for example) are a bit OCD about spelling, or grammar, or even how a sentence or paragraph reads, or "flows". Sometimes changes are required to make the content read easier. The next bullet on this list is related to this.

**Summary** - When editing, use the summary box to add notes to other editors of the changes you are making, this is more important if you are changing a lot of information, so that the other editors know why you did it, and it also lessens the chances of your changes being reverted/re-edited.

**Proper Tense** - For deceased characters be sure to use terms of "was" instead of "is" and etc.

Initially, Kumi was awaiting an operation to get bone marrow from her older sister. She watched Satoru Fujinuma go through physical therapy, encouraging him to try harder.

In 2005, a year later, Kumi recovered. She then had to just take pills and have tests every month. She plans to go to Sasanqua Camp on August 25-26. She had already went there on a field trip in her second year, where they had rides and a boat. She also thinks that hiking on the trail would be good for Satoru. Sachiko Fujinuma agrees and gets permission from her family and doctor. Satoru, Sachiko and Kumi all plan to go together.

In the end, Satoru and her both show each other passing arks from a "high school" exam.

## Trivia

* The name **Kumi** means "long time" (久) (**ku**) and "beautiful" (美) (**mi**).
* Kumi's surname **Kitamaru** means "north" (北) (**kita**) and "circle" (丸) (**maru**).
Mikoto Elementary School

**Mikoto Elementary** is where Satoru completed his primary education. In 1988, the school was subjugated to controversies, after two of its students were kidnapped and murdered. Upon discovering his mother's murder, Satoru is sent back in time to February 15, 1988 by a large-scale Revival.

Gaku Yashiro and his older brother attended school here. As part of a two week teaching practice Gaku returned during his third year of college.

The school is in Hokkaido, as mentioned in Episode 1, and can also be hinted because of the heavy snow. It could be possibly in the outskirts of Hakodate, as Mt. Hakodate has been mentioned.

Judging by the end credits of Treasure, the school closed down since Satoru's coma.

Re:Re:

**Re:Re:** (pronounced R-E-R-E in English) is a song performed by Japanese Rock Band Asian Kung-Fu Generation from the album *Sol-fa*, released on October 20, 2004. In 2016, the song was rerecorded and primarily featured as *Boku Dake ga Inai Machi*'s opening theme. In *Flashing Before My Eyes*, the song is used for ending credits. In *Treasure*, a graffiti under the bridge spells out "Re:Re:", which is used to commemorate the anime's opening theme.

## Artist comment

"We are very honored and happy that our song "Re:Re:" will be used as the opening theme for "Boku Dake ga Inai Machi".
I read the original manga with great excitement (sometimes going back to the pages) and was very much looking forward to the anime adaptation.
(I had also made a reservation to record the first episode of the anime, but ended up watching it in real time. LOL)

"Re:Re:" is a song we wrote in 2004, but when we read the lyrics again, there are many links to the story, and we were able to go into the recording with a new feeling.
We would be happy if you love this song along with the story.

We look forward to enjoying the future development of the anime together with you."

-Kita Kensuke of Asian Kung-Fu Generation

君を待った 僕は待った

途切れない明日も過ぎて行って

立ち止まって振り返って

とめどない今日を嘆き合った

記憶だって 永遠になんて

残らないものとおもい知って

僕はずっと掻きむしって

心の隅っこで泣いた そして

どうか なくさないでよって

高架下 過ぎる日々を

後悔してんだよって

そう言い逃したあの日

繋ぎ合った時もあった

ほどけない感情持ち寄って

それが僕のすべてだった

それもたった今 失くしたんだ

形だって 時が経って

変わりゆくものとおもい知って

僕はずっと掻きむしって

塞がれた今日を恨んだ そして

どうかなくさないでよって

高架下 過ぎる日々を

後悔してんだよって

そう言い逃したあの日

君を待った 僕は待った

途切れない明日も過ぎて行って

僕は今日も掻きむしって

忘れない傷をつけているんだよ

君じゃないとさ

Tends to act aggressive, and does not hesitate to use violence even when others might find it to be unnecessary. She is also known to bully Jung's girlfriends since their childhood.

## **Biography**

#### **Childhood**

Her parents died in a car accident when she was little, leading her and her brother Baek In Ho under custody of their grandfather. After her grandfather died, her aunt became their guardian. She abused In Ha very badly as for she was jealous of her looks, and when Jung's father (who was a close friend of their grandfather) came to visit them In Ha ran to him screaming for him to help, showing him bruises done by his aunt. So he took them in thinking that they could act as siblings to Jung, and somehow cure Jung of his 'weirdness'. After these events she developed an aggressive, straightforward, violent attitude.

She went to high school together with Jung and In Ho. Although they grew as siblings, she developed a crush on Jung in time; of which both Jung and her brother were aware. She wanted to become a painter during her high school years; but unlike her brother In Ho, she was discouraged and often mocked for her lack of talent and ended up not pursuing her dream any further. After high school, as for she gave up on her dream, she refused the education and job offers given from Jung's father and chose to live off the Yoo family's financial support. When In Ho and Jung got in a misunderstanding, he left the city, leaving her alone and not giving a thought about her. That made her relationship with her brother even worse, making her believe that she is all on her own in this world, and can't trust anyone. When in need, she is shown to date rich people and receive gifts of monetary value from them.

 Appearance

She is a half foreigner because both her parents were also half foreigner. She inherited blond hair and western features and even though she is only half western, she is often mistaken as a foreigner. She gathers attention everywhere she goes due to her looks, described to be very pretty.

 Personality

She is a confident, bad tempered, savage woman who has trust issues, and actively uses people- especially men. For that reason she is often called scary. She has a taste for luxury and fashion. She seems to be one of the people that knows Jung's personality the best, and she seems to enjoy it; being as loud as she can to make Jung act as she likes, not fearing a bit of Jung's anger, purposefully pissing him off. She seems to manipulate other people's emotions to get what she wants. She doesn't fear making a scene, doesn't care about her public image, therefore is loud in public and will dress up in an eye-catching manner. Although she has a short temper, the only matter that really gets under her skin is the art issue; she is very sensitive about her dream that she was forced to abandon.

Baek In Ho

Baek Inho | 백인호

Baek Inho is the second male lead of the webtoon. He serves to reveal Yoo Jung's past and give an example of Jung's misunderstood intentions.

## **Biography**

#### **Childhood**

His parents died in a car accident when he was little, leaving him and his sister Baek Inha to be adopted by his Grandfather, a good friend of Yoo Jung's father. After his grandfather died, his aunt became their guardian. They were physically abused, however. While In Ha, who received the brunt of the abuse, demanded that she be reported and jailed, In Ho refused to report his aunt, fearing that they would have no one left. This is, presumably, a major cause of their animosity.

He was adopted by Yoo Jung's father, who is revealed to have done so in order to help lessen Jung's "weirdness".

He went to high school together with Jung. Due to some misunderstandings, he and Jung ended up fighting, and In Ho blames Jung for the accident with his hand.

## Appearance

He is a half foreigner because both his parents were also half foreigners. He inherited blond hair and western features and even though he is only half western, he is often mistaken as a foreigner/Yankee. People find him attractive but they also think he looks like a thug.

His style consists of a lot of ripped jeans and t shirts, making him appear like a jobless bum. Nevertheless, he is considered a very handsome man, even by Seol.

## Personality

He is very cool of himself, almost to the point where he could be considered arrogant. His pride is something very important to him, he would rather lose it all than lose his pride. But whenever he brags he is saying it jokingly, most of the time. He's a care free person, one that doesn't plan ahead and lives in the moment. In a way, he is the opposite of Jung. In Ho acts with his fist first if he is faced with a problem, then realizes the consequences after. Once he cares about someone, he tends to look out for them and protect them, usually putting others over himself. He is incredibly hot headed, especially around Jung whom he viewed the cause of his problems...

He is also notably alert though at the same time, quite dense, not taking much the time to carefully think and often waving away his problems. He was revealed to have a deeper side, however, later on. His dream in high school was to become a pianist, and he was a prodigy. Due to his accident with his left hand, he quit playing, and is shown to sometimes reflect back on it. He is shown to be bitter while doing so.

He cares for Seol, saving her from her stalker and later on putting medicine on her bruises. He starts working in her parents' restaurant to pay for his piano classes and hand recovery himself.

## Role in Story

Inho now works as a full timer in Hong Seol's parents' restaurant. He has resumed his study of the piano with a professor in Jung's university, who is revealed to have known him during his high school prodigy days. He undergoes therapy for his hand at a hospital without taking financial help from Jung or his father. He protects Seol multiple times and develops feelings for her though he never acts on it.
