Sasara Nurude

Male

26

Tragic Comedy

Comedian

Sasara has ombre-green hair. His eyes are bright gold, although they are usually closed, which is known in Japanese media as “fox eyes” (“kitsune no me”). He has a tragus piercing on both ears.

Sasara wears an orange-and-brown hound's-tooth patterned suit with a white shirt, pink tie and black shoes. He wears a fan shaped lapel pin. He’s also usually seen with a fan which is a common attribute for Japanese manzai comedy. (The fan is also known as a harisen).

Sasara presents himself as a walking Kansai stereotype: loud, friendly, talkative, and humorous. He likes to crack jokes at any occassion, no matter how appropriate it is. His speech, mannerisms, and style of dress are over the top and ridiculous. He's shown to be charismatic and a natural genius at comedy and entertainment, being a famous manzai comedian at just 26. Offstage however, his jokes tend to be lame and awful.

Behind his jovial exterior, Sasara is crafty and intelligent, being able to read people very well. He tends to insult people in his head, even when he's outwardly being friendly. He immediately knew he was being scammed when his coworker offered him a "business opportunity", something which Rosho completely fell for. However, Sasara plays the idiot constantly, to the point that most of his coworkers and even Ichiro thinks he actually is one.

Sasara is always looking for things that can interest or excite him, even if it's dangerous - such as helping beat up a gang, letting a shady individual join his team, or undergoing a brutal week-long Buddhist training camp. He's willing to go through unpleasant experiences if he gets a good, usually funny, story out of it.

Despite his apparent friendliness, Sasara refuses to get close with other people. His parents' divorce has led him to believe that relationships are fragile, and he purposely keeps a distance between himself and others due to this. This also caused him to be self-reliant, to not depend on anyone other than himself. He's stated that the only person who he ever wanted to bond with is Rosho, who Sasara is very clingy with.
