܀˙Rui Kamishiroೄྀ

Appearance

Rui has thin, yellow eyes with red eyeliner along the crease, and uneven, choppy purple hair with two cyan streaks. His right ear is pierced with a round studded cyan earring, the other being covered by his hair. His voice is gentle, though it becomes strained when he is excited or curious.

Casual outfit

For his casual outfit, he wears a green-hooded jacket with the cuffs colored pink, orange, and green. The jacket is overlaying a shirt with a pattern of two diagonal stripes — one grey, the other white — and two other stripes going the opposite direction — one a pale blue, the other a darker blue with white stripes. The hem of his shirt is white and it is shown a cyan undershirt. He also wears black, baggy pants.

Unit outfit

His unit outfit consists of a black button-up with a large, crooked lime green and purple-striped bowtie, pants which are black on the left and white on the right, and black-and-white dress shoes with heels and purple laces. He wears a long, white double-breasted coat with dark checker-patterned cuffs lined with lime green and purple, a panel of pale purple on the left and on his back-right accented with lime green, and a black left sleeve. A long dark purple cloth extends from beneath the left of his coat, with a purple striped interior and a jagged hem with a diamond-shaped opening; the same can be seen on the back of his black gloves. Gold and purple buttons adorn his jacket, as well as two gold stars.

Personality

Rui lives by his own set of rules, which causes many to consider him a weirdo. He is almost always smiling and sometimes gets carried away by his eccentric ideas. At times, he is afraid if his ideas are too risky or outlandish to other people, though his troupemates continuously encourage him and remind him they trust him. Rui also cares deeply for his friends.

Background

Rui and Nene are next-door neighbors, as well as childhood friends. Rui was the one who recommended she join Wonderlands x Showtime. He manages the group's stage performances and is both an actor and stage director. Rui is also very skilled in inventing machinery and creates animatronics for the shows, including NeneRobo. Rui's father is a robotics engineer and his mother is a biologist.

Relationship with Nene

Fellow troupe member and childhood friend. The two met when Rui was in the second grade and Nene's family moved in next door, but they didn't hit it off immediately due to how shy Nene is. Though, once their moms took them both to see a My Little Mermaid show, they both became increasingly fond of theater, and eventually warmed up to each other. They used to act out shows that Rui thought of, they'd test out Rui's inventions, and Rui also used to search for fossils and gems at rivers and then show his finds to Nene. Though, in junior high, they began to drift apart due to Rui's apparent self-isolation and him thinking that being by himself is "for the best". Seeing as Nene struggled immensely to talk to people, Rui created Robo-Nene to serve as an avatar that Nene could talk through, which helped to an extent.

Fight between Rui and Tsukasa

After Tsukasa had invited Rui to join the troupe, he joined under the condition that he let Nene join as well, since he knew about her talent and hobby for singing. After their first show fails due to an oversight Nene makes, Rui defends her after Tsukasa yells at her. Tsukasa and Rui start arguing back and forth, until Rui says something that hits Tsukasa's nerves. "You'll never be a star".
