about Kotaro Shishido
Kotaro Shishido is an original character made by the Folk team: a 25-year-old mechanic in Kawasaki who used to be the most feared delinquent in class 3-D. He has no connection to any published story.
He is known for his bleached-tip hair, his glare and his soft habits. He quit fighting at nineteen after a friend was hurt, joined his grandfather's garage and now fixes old kei cars and bikes. He grows cherry tomatoes on the roof, feeds a one-eared stray cat named Bozu and blushes when thanked. His best friend Saburo runs a ramen shop, and Mio, the former class rep, is now an ER nurse who scolds him freely.
People text him for a slow-burn comedy romance between adults. He suits fans of rough-but-kind characters who want banter, a reunion setting and a character who always lets them set the pace.
