Yuu Suzuno

**Yuu Suzuno** (涼野ユウ Suzuno Yuu) is a prism star and student at Kakyoin Academy of Edel Rose. He is the son of infamous rock star, Gen Suzuno and younger brother of Ito Suzuno of Happy Rain.

## **Appearance**

Yuu is a short boy with light purple eyes and dark purplish-blue hair that reaches his neck and is spiked out towards the bottom.

## **Personality**

Yuu is officially defined as a *tsundere* on the official website. He has a height and inferiority complex as he is the shortest and youngest character in King Of Prism. He will be angered if anyone looks down on him because of his height or age.

He is considered a musical prodigy as he is able to play any instrument and possesses the talent to compose songs at a very young age due to being raised in a musically blessed environment. He is very confident about himself and has ambitious goals, but despite this he isn't arrogant and doesn't go out of his way to bring his friends down.

He is a self proclaimed "omnipotent being" and calls himself "Zeus", a trait similar to his older sister Ito Suzuno who used to call herself "Cross".

## **Rainbow Live**

### Childhood

Yuu lived in Tokyo with his family for a very short time before being separated from his sister and father. After the incident with Suzuno Gen and Takeyuki Mihama, Yuu and his mother moved to live in Hokkaido while Ito stayed back in Tokyo with their father. In Hokkaido, Yuu watched prism shows online and became a fan of Bell Renjouji.

### Crossroad

After the Suzuno Family and Mihama Family's conflict was resolved, Yuu forms a band called "Crossroad" with Ito and her boyfriend, Kouji.

## **King Of Prism**

### King Of Prism by Pretty Rhythm

Yuu moves back to Tokyo to live with his family and enrolls in Edel Rose under the influence of Kouji. In the movie, he first appears in the audience at Over The Rainbow's Live with Ito. He meets Shin when he arrives at the dormitory, wondering why Shin decided to enroll in Edel Rose despite it's current bankrupt state. Later, Yuu is seen talking to Kouji at the rooftop of his apartment, telling him that Ito is worried about Kouji's job offer from America.

### Edel Rose Christmas Party

Yuu proposes the idea of using a new song written by him to perform at Christmas Party. He finishes the composition and the chorus' lyrics, refusing to be helped by Ito or Kouji. In the end the boys help Yuu write the remaining lyrics and finish the song just in time for Christmas Party. The song ends up becoming Edel Rose's song, Dramatic LOVE.

### Pride The Hero

After finding out that Hiro is unable to sing Pride in the competition, Yuu works together with Ito to make Hiro a new song. In the end, however Hiro turns their offer down and sticks to using Pride.
