Shiromi Torayoshi is one of the female students who currently attends Akademi and is the treasurer of the Student Council. Shiromi has short, white hair with 2 black clips on the left side. The right side of her bangs are much longer, reaching below her chin. Her eyes are black and "lifeless", with no irises. She is the only student to have this effect. Her bust size is 0.5. She wears the Student Council uniform alongside the "Red Armband of Leadership" on her left arm, reading 生徒会 (seito kai), meaning Student Council written in kanji. She also wears a white scarf with a black tiger pattern and similar knee socks. Shiromi is the shortest member of the Student Council. She is a peculiar young woman whose intentions are never clear. She is known for smiling at almost every hour of the day, in every type of situation, which is unsettling to some students. Shiromi is an enigma; very few students know anything about her. Just about the only thing that anyone knows for certain is that she is very eccentric, and takes pleasure in performing harmless pranks on other students. Shiromi has an extremely eccentric and quirky personality, but she is also a rather smart person with a lot of unique skills only "true ninja" may possess, such as stealth actions, lockpicking, throwing objects with perfect accuracy, and so on. Shiromi also has sharp observations of others and knows how to find out someone's deepest secret, even if this secret had no witnesses and had happened years ago. Due to her background, she perceives life as something that can be snatched away in the blink of an eye, and thus, pointless to value. At the same time, she feels attached to her own life as she is afraid to die without experiencing it to the fullest, despite considering being attached to it "foolish." Overall, Shiromi is rarely shown to have a strong emotional reaction to anything; she hasn't cried in 5 years and is the least susceptible to emotional manipulation. She would not take being bullied or even being fired from the student council seriously; however, in the latter case, she would be bummed out for a while, as she is fond of the other members. Shiromi can understand what emotions other people must be feeling, but doesn't always feel compelled to react in a socially appropriate way. She likes pulling pranks on people and prefers playful replies over basic replies but also has a sense of responsibility and understands that she can't be a class clown as a member of the student council; she only does that when there's a good opportunity for her to crack a joke that the entire class, including the teacher, would laugh at. The worst thing Shiromi has done was cause a fight between two people, as a distraction to snoop through the person's private belongings. Despite not taking life seriously, she's shown to have compassion towards other people and animals; she's willing to help those in need, including proactively trying to prevent bullying, and doesn't pull actually cruel pranks or overstep people's boundaries. In terms of speech patterns, Shiromi doesn't use profanity, but would say something odd as an alternative to profanity when she is surprised or upset. She also picked up on a lot of English words to communicate with her instructors, and understand the signs in non-Japanese speaking countries. The reason why Shiromi is eccentric, along with being the only person without shining eyes, was due to the fact she was involved in a near-fatal and traumatizing car crash during elementary school that changed her perspective of the world; the trauma caused by this event made the "light" in her eyes not reappear again because of nearly losing her own life. As a result, she is "dead inside," which makes her eyes similar to a mindslave's. Shiromi sustained some scars from the car accident, but they are mostly in areas covered by clothing, with any part of her skin not visible during gameplay being a potential spot for a scar. The accident left a small scar on her ear, though it has healed over time and is now nearly invisible unless closely examined. The incident occurred when Shiromi and her parents were in a car driven by her father, following a truck carrying metal rods. One of the rods came loose, piercing through the windshield and narrowly missing Shiromi's head, cutting her ear before exiting through the rear window. Just one second earlier, her head had been positioned exactly where the rod passed through—had she not moved, she would have been killed. If Shiromi did want to live, her eyes would have life again. This would only occur if she started a family, which would prompt her to stay alive for her children; she would want children one day, but the earliest would be in her 20s. Her eyes could also come back to life if she saw the entire student council dead and saw the protagonist standing above the corpses. While her next action would depend on Ayano's actions, it wouldn't end well for the latter. Shiromi learned her skills from her father, Shigeaki, who himself was taught by a ninja experienced with ninjutsu. As a child, Shigeaki made friends with a mysterious old man who had been playing a lot with him, but these games felt more like deliberate training than simple games. It turned out that the mysterious old man was from a family of ninjas who had been passing down the art of ninjutsu for centuries and used to work for the government during WW2. Shigeaki did not believe him at first when he had heard the story; however, the man had passed down the skills regardless. In turn, Shigeaki attempted to teach his daughter the same skills using the same methods; however, when Shiromi was six, she declined it, believing it was "cringe" to play with her parents, and Shigeaki didn't attempt to press her further. However, after the near-death accident that Shiromi experienced, she wanted to show her gratitude to her parents at any given moment, so she accepted her father's offer. Shiromi completed her training from her father, and as a result, she can craft smoke bombs, cause a distraction on the opposite side of the room, hide in any situation, and steal without being seen or caught. Certain people, if they knew about her skills, would describe her as "Japan's last true 'Ninja'". She keeps these smoke bombs underneath her uniform and is, in fact, wearing a harness with several pockets that each contain different tools and devices. She builds her smoke bombs herself. She was taught by her parents, who were passing knowledge from their ancestry.
