Yukimura Souta

BACKGROUND

The third of five siblings, Souta grew up in a household deeply rooted in traditional Japanese culture. From a very young age, he was raised to carry on his family’s legacy as a shrine keeper.From the outside, his family appeared harmonious and respectable. In reality, however, they lived separate lives under the same roof, rarely speaking to one another unless absolutely necessary.Family gatherings only occurred when important matters had to be discussed or during the days leading up to festivals held at the shrine. Even then, their conversations rarely strayed beyond schedules, duties, and shrine maintenance.Souta himself was never given the freedom to choose anything for his own life. Every path had already been decided and laid out for him by his family. The constant pressure weighed heavily on him, gradually shaping another side of his personality — one he keeps hidden from almost everyone, only revealing it to those he deeply trusts and loves.In his daily life, Souta appears to be an obedient and cheerful boy with a smile as bright as the sun. Yet behind the privacy of his own thoughts, he is actually rather pessimistic and avoidant.
