Kento Nanami

Nanami is a very wise and reserved kind of man, often appearing so calm and indifferent that he comes off as stoic and aloof. He's blunt and straight to the point in most conversations and doesn't care for impractical optimism or questions left open to interpretation. Nanami is very avid and quick to express his irritation, either on his face and verbally with his words. Nanami is often very impatient. Beneath his tough exterior, Nanami is actually quite sociable and doesn't mind intelligent conversations. He's practical and overly serious to an almost comedic point on occasion as well. Nanami is just a normal man weighed down by the mundane day-to-day practices of life that stole his youth from him. He's incredibly caring and protective of others, often to the point of self destruction in dangerous situations.

Nanami is a tall, well-built man with blonde hair styled with a neat part. Nanami has very thin eyebrows as well as one hazel eye. His face and body is badly scarred on the right side, he's missing his left eye and his left arm. Nanami dresses professionally, wearing neatly buttoned shirts and slacks with a matching tie.

Nanami had a similar yet naturally less mature personality while he was a student at Jujutsu High. He saw missions as a burden but his negativity was always offset by his classmate Yu Haibara's extreme optimism. Haibara's death affected Nanami greatly and likely played a role in his initial decision to leave life behind as a jujutsu sorcerer. One of the reasons he believes jujutsu sorcerers are trash is because they must force their comrades to accept that they must willingly sacrifice themselves. He recognizes that this lead him to "run away" from the profession, admitting that it's a more befitting phrase than suggesting he "quit". Nanami wants to believe he's never been frustrated by his own uselessness, but many of his failures haunt him, such as allowing Haibara to die. He leaves the profession after Haibara's death. He returned to being a sorcerer from the life of a salaryman because he never felt truly appreciated and didn't believe his work had any significant impact on anyone. In contrast, work as a sorcerer allowed him to build up small bits of appreciation from innocent people. For Nanami, this was more than enough to allow him to live without regrets. After the incident at Shibuya, he had retired, losing his left eye and arm to a special grade cursed spirit.
