Kevin Day is the starting striker of the Palmetto State Foxes. He was formerly a member of the Edgar Allan Ravens and was considered one of the best contemporary Exy players alongside his adoptive brother Riko Moriyama until an injury to his dominant hand forced to relearn to play with his right hand.

Along with Riko, Kevin is often called "The Son of Exy" and "The Future of Exy," because his mother, Kayleigh Day, invented the sport along side Riko's uncle, Tetsuji Moriyama.

Biography: Kevin was born presumably to Irish national Kayleigh Day and David Wymack, who was told he wasn't Kevin's father. Kevin grew up with his mother until she died in a car accident, and was then taken in by his godfather, Tetsuji Moriyama, and raised alongside Tetsuji's nephew, Riko Moriyama, in Castle Evermore. Tetsuji didn't care much for either of them as their guardian, his main goal was the train the two to become the best Exy players in the world. The two spent most of their time either playing or practicing Exy, they spent so much time around the Edgar Allan Ravens that they were called the team's unofficial mascots. The pair had a number one and two drawn onto their cheeks from a young age, Riko being one and Kevin being two. This evolved into Riko's Perfect Court, which also includes the former backliner for the Ravens, Jean Moreau, and, briefly, Neil Josten.

Kevin and Riko were inseparable ever since Tetsuji took the pair in, neither of the two ever appeared alone on camera. The two were constantly in the limelight since their childhood, although this lead to some concern over the effect this could have on their psychological well being, it led to a widespread obsession with the pair and many considered them the future of Exy.

Before the events of The Foxhole Court, Kevin accidentally found a letter from his mother to Tetsuji that revealed his father's identity.

After the "accident," Kevin moved to Palmetto State University to act as Coach Wymack's unofficial assistant coach. This offended his fans, because they thought that Kevin should have stayed with the Ravens. For his junior year, he signed as a striker for the Foxes, now playing with his right hand. This once again made his fans feel betrayed.

Kevin promised Wymack that he would get the team past the fourth match this season.

To train his right hand, he goes to the stadium at night, accompanied by Andrew who won't play with him. Instead of forcing Andrew, Kevin says that he must want to train with him of his own accord. He thinks that one day he will want to.

Appearance: Kevin has green eyes and dark hair, and is about 6' to 6'2. At the end of The King's Men, he has the number tattooed over with the queen piece from chess. He's MUCH taller than Aaron.

Personality: Neil’s describes Kevin as arrogant, spineless, and Exy-obsessed. Because of his traumatic upbringing, Kevin most likely suffers from anxiety and PTSD, and is obviously afraid of the people who abused him most of his life. He doesn’t know how to cope with things in a healthy way and lashes out in the court or drinking. He didn’t drink before he joined the foxes. He obsesses over Exy to cope. He’s also made fun for being a ‘healthy nut’ when actually this can also be a result from his time with the Ravens and it’s most likely an eating disorder. Kevin was never alone during his time with the Ravens and probably also has a codependency problem. His teammates care for him to some degree, but they don’t really understand the extent of Kevin’s traumas, even though they know what the Moriyamas are capable of and what Riko did to him.

Even though he’s shown as someone cold and egoistic, he has his own ways of caring for other characters, like not telling Wymack he is his father to protect him from the Moriyamas (fact that got him angry reactions from his teammates, especially Dan even though this was a matter that only concerned Kevin and Wymack), he’s the first person to recognizing Andrew as someone worthy of something, promising him something to build his life around (he probably meant Exy, as this is something he thinks it’s the most important thing a person can have, but ends up being Neil), he promises Neil to make him court and continues to practice with him even when he knows that Neil is going to die, he promises not to tell anyone the truth about Neil, he offers to remain sober one night so he could watch over Neil while he drinks and offers to be Neil’s listener when he comes back from his time with the ravens. He is also shown to have a close relationship with Abby.

Other people are put off by Kevin's cold personality and his unapologetic way of criticizing. This makes it hard for them to react neutrally and instead causes them to snap back at him.

He is possibly an alcoholic, demonstrated by his crutch on alcohol in stressful situations.

He's dating Aaron Minyard.
