Trivia

A born and raised son of Inaba, currently in class 1-2 of Yasogami High. His father, Nobuhiko, is a shinto priest for a shrine outside of town. His mother Midori is a homemaker, and often gossips with all the other women of Inaba. He has three brothers, the oldest one living at home and taking over the family Shirne (Hajime), the second living in Sumaru and going to college there (Jitarou), and the third (Sanzou) is a third year student at Yasogami, and constantly loves to make life hell for Shirou. He's been pondering many career paths, the primary one being a medical professional of some sort. That's changed as of late, with the realities of the world making him wonder if becoming a permanent part of the KDA is the best thing to do. Has night terrors occasionally due to a horrific experience suffered in the Sun Mall of Lunarville. Mostly they're of yellow and red eyes and red snapping jaws, along with sudden crippling isolation. Particularly bad ones will have him waking up screaming. These have lessened recently, in quantity and power. Rarely if ever now does he wake up screaming, but it's hard to say because time has made him forget, or if helping to stop Kandori a few more times has given him more inner strength. He's retired his first yari, the one that he used in Lunarville and through-out the fights in Mikage-cho. It shall be left black and cracked and soot-covered, marred by the electricity of the DVA Device and all the fighting. He put down good money for a replacement, somehow bringing back some Cerberus fur with him from Mikage-cho... Due to time traveling by Yuuka Chiba, Shirou was a big fan of Yuume-Mi, and thus learned about idol singers in general. Once the time line righted itself, he was able to retain these memories and information; as a result his view of Yuuka Chiba has changed a bit. Is Weak to Maids, and Strong against Ojou. Finally overtook Naoto Shirogane for one exam, the finals of their first year in High School. Naoto still has a commanding lead in their 'rivalry'.

Establishing Character Moment Stabbing the DVA Device;see how many times it's been brought up already. Heroic Bastard A guarded secret, except to those that went through his TV Dungeon. Intelligence Equals Isolation A possible explanation for his Friendless Background Understanding Boyfriend Has to be for Thora The Unfavorite This is the attitude his father has towards him.
