Wataru Hibiki

Fickle and elusive, Wataru lives in his own peculiar world and is one of the "Three Oddballs." His speech and actions are theatrical at all times, and the Theater Club members are victims of his erratic behavior. Because he often wears a mask, the members call him "Masked Freak."

Even though he's eccentric, his talent for singing and acting are undoubted, so a lot of fans gather at his plays and live shows. He is a member of fine, the academy's most formidable unit.

Appearance
Wataru is a very tall young man with a good build. He has light blue hair that is a slightly more vivid blue at the tips. His hair reaches past his back, and he wears a braid to the left side with a maroon band and ties it in a bun in the back. He has light purple eyes. He wears the school uniform with the white shirt undone at the collar and a green tie. He wears a brown and grey two-toned vest with black buttons. He wears the school's blazer off his shoulders and black and white dress shoes with black laces. Incidentally, Wataru's blazer is notably different from all of the other students', somewhat resembling a trench coat.

On stage, Wataru wears fine's uniform, which includes a white tuxedo shirt with a blue tie and a dark blue vest with yellow buttons. The uniform consists of a regal white and gold jacket with decorations on the lapel. He also wears white suit pants and white dress shoes.

Voice Actor Comment
"This is supposed to be an idol game, but the character that I was in charge of has a very quirky personality (laugh), and it was a lot of fun to portray him. I was allowed to be quite adventurous in my acting, and I hope the audience will enjoy those parts (laugh). I'm also looking forward to playing the game!"
