01†Hajime Umemiya

Umemiya is a tall teenager with white swept-back hair, gray downturned eyes, and white eyebrows with a slit through his left brow. He is most often seen wearing a Furin High School uniform with an extended-length, dark green, tailcoat left unbuttoned over a white t-shirt, paired with dark green pants and a black pair of men's driving shoes. When not in his Furin High School Uniform, he prefers more casual styles and doesn't put a lot of thought into fashion for his every-day clothing. He owns a lot of graphic t-shirts and uses a thin, long wallet. He prefers casual type shoes and enjoys wearing driving shoes in particular. He's been told that his casual way of dressing makes him appear undignified for his position as the Leader and Representative of Bofurin, so he has recently begun to care for a little more about his fashion choices. As a child, Umemiya had short, black hair with bangs and black eyebrows. When he was 9 years old, a month after he moved to Furinen Orphanage, he had white hair growing in from his roots with black hair still at the ends. His eyebrows had also begun to change from black to white at this time. He wore a plain, loose fitting sweatshirt, jeans, and light-colored tennis shoes with a strap over the laces. At age 14, his hair and eyebrows had completely changed from black to white. He wore a standard junior high school uniform and would leave the jacket unbuttoned with a white t-shirt underneath. In cold weather, he wore a plain white sweatshirt under his unbuttoned school uniform jacket, along with a scarf. During this time he wore light-colored, lace-up sneakers.

Umemiya shows a lot of interest in Sakura's potential both as a person and as a leader within Bofurin. He is aware that Sakura came to Furin High originally with the intention of fighting her way to the top to claim the right to be called the strongest of Furin High, and Umemiya regards this information in a positive way, encouraging Sakura to keep training and get to be as strong as he can be. While Sakura at times is overwhelmed by Umemiya's genuine expression of emotionally intense topics, they both harbor deep respect and admiration for each other. Sugishita is an underclassman of Umemiya that deeply respects him. In the manga, it was said that Sugishita frequently visited Furin High school even when he was in middle school. Umemiya and Kotoha grew up together at Furinen Orphanage. Umemiya often dotes on Kotoha, and describes her as her little sister. While Kotoha expresses her annoyance at this and denies the designation of "little sister," the two still maintain a close relationship. Umemiya and Kotoha both enjoy cooking and growing plants; Umemiya is seen showing Kotoha pictures of his seedlings and talking with her about his gardening projects excitedly. Umemiya and Kotoha both seem to still be very attached to their friends and "family" at Furinen Orphanage, with Kotoha's phone background picturing Umemiya and the other kids at the orphanage. Tina Hiragi is Umemiya's right hand man and in charge of the first years, he experiences chronic stress related stomach aches which worry Umemiya. Umemiya annoys the hell out of the most serious boy and knows it, but he loves how honest Hiragi is with him.
