Yuusei Shirosaki

**Yuusei Shirosaki** (白崎 優清 *Shirosaki Yūsei*) is a main character in Atarashii Joushi wa Do Tennen. He is the chief of the Planning and Sales department at Minette whose concentration at work is high and his performance is good. In matters outside of work, he gets easily distracted and often makes mistakes.

## Appearance

Shirosaki is a 34-year-old male with a slim build. His hair color is ashy blond with long bangs, in formal settings, he wears in slicked back with one of his hair strand dangling. At home, he lets his hair down. He has a crazy bed-head in the mornings. His eyes look lot like cat eyes (This causes cats to be scared of him, as they think of him as a monster). His work clothes are a gray suit with a baby pink/white shirt and a tie (Occasionally changes the tie color).

## Personality

Shirosaki is a kind and understanding soul who connects with people. His defining trait is his air headedness which causes him to get into embarrassing situations. In Episode 1 of anime, when Momose fell sick during their outing, Shirosaki bought him medicines for menstrual cramps instead of stomachaches (Much to the amusement of Momose, which he thinks as stress relief). In Episode 3, Shirosaki gave his keys to Momose to allow him to check in on his cat, Hakuto after a previous night out with Momose. The only problem is that he gave it to him in a Subway and told him "Here is my keys to the house, you can always come to the home" which caused many passengers to mistake it for a proposal (Momose didn't catch this implication, as he is oblivious to this stuff).

However funny his antics are, many admire him for his work ethic and his quality of work. He believes that one should enjoy their work and does his best to ensure that people around him enjoys and does their work properly without any worries. He is very caring of people. In Episode 6, Shirosaki told that the reason he didn't repair his cracked phone is that it reminds him of Momose's hard work and wants to leave it that way. It was revealed that when Momose fell ill, Shirosaki dropped everything to get his medicine, so much so that he dropped his phone and cracked the display. Many appreciate his work for being personal and empathetic and connecting with people. Even Momose said that his Tokyo Planetarium advert pulled him out of rut and made him go search for new and better opportunities which made Shirosaki to get emotional as he never really thought much about it.
