Hiromi Higuruma

App. Hiromi Higuruma is a man of average height with lightly tanned skin and a slender build. He has short, well-kept, dark-brown hair with a stringy texture that is styled to flow toward the back of his head. Hiromi has a large nose and brown eyes with very small pupils. He almost always has a tired and bored expression on his face due to overwork and the nature of his career. As a lawyer, Hiromi dons the professional attire of a typical black suit and tie, dress pants, and shoes. He also sports the sunflower pin on his left shoulder symbolizing that he's an attorney.

Pers. Hiromi is a very relaxed, hyperintelligent, and modest man who always appears very detached and aloof from his environment. He can come off as apathetic due to the weary expression that's always on his face but Hiromi is actually very passionate about justice. Hiromi is constantly working on his craft and his associates think he's a masochist for taking on tough cases where most people would consider his defendants sure to be found guilty.

Even though 99.9% of criminal trials in Japan end in a guilty verdict, Hiromi always chooses to try and protect the wrongfully accused by proving their innocence anyway. He's not trying to save the weak and powerless, Hiromi simply can't leave things alone if he doesn't feel they're right. Lady Justice wears a blindfold to represent impartial justice and everyday people close their eyes to shield themselves from reality, but Hiromi is the type of man willing to keep his eyes open even if no one else will. Hiromi has since become generally discontent and disconnected from the laws of society. He has openly admitted he cares very little for anything at all anymore and resorted to challenging himself to try things he previously wouldn't. This led to strange behavior like Hiromi laying in a bathtub filled with water while fully clothed in his suit and tie. Despite the seriousness of the change his change in his mental state, Hiromi joked with Yuji as if he was just someone having a mid-life crisis. He even made a momentary quip about wanting to play the money-grubbing lawyer he never was before.

Superior Intellect: Hiromi is extraordinarily brilliant even by Law School standards. On top of the peers who already believe him to be a genius, one of his senior mentors recommended he become a judge before even graduating. Hiromi has always readily overcome challenges such as his Law School's entrance exam and the national bar exam. To him, it was just a simple matter of using the necessary effort to ascertain the required knowledge.
