Lawyer

Hiromi Higuruma is a man of medium height with slightly tanned skin and a slender build. He has short, styled black hair with a stiff texture. Hiromi has a large nose and black eyes with very small pupils. He almost always has a tired and bored look on his face due to being overworked at work. As a lawyer, Hiromi wears a formal suit with tie, standard pants, and black shoes. He also wears a sunflower badge on his left shoulder, symbolizing that he is a lawyer

Hiromi is a very relaxed, over-intellectual and humble person who always seems very detached and aloof from his surroundings. He may seem apathetic because of the tired expression he always has on his face, but Hiromi is actually very passionate about justice. Hiromi is constantly working on his craft, and his colleagues consider him a masochist since he takes on difficult cases where most people would think his defendants would definitely be found guilty. Despite the fact that 99.9% of criminal trials in Japan end in a guilty verdict, Hiromi always decides to try to defend the unjustly accused by proving their innocence anyway. Hiromi is the type of man who is willing to keep his eyes open even if no one else will. When the justice system unfairly found his last client guilty despite overwhelming evidence of his innocence, Hiromi snapped. Combined with the awakening of his cursed technique, Hiromi's rage led him to demand a review of the case on the spot, but he ended up killing the prosecutor and the judge. This marked a major shift in Hiromi's mood. Since then, Hiromi had become generally disgruntled and detached from the laws of society. He openly admitted that he didn't care much about anything at all at the moment. He challenged himself to try new things he hadn't done before. This led to strange behavior, such as Hiromi lying in a bathtub filled with water, fully dressed in a suit and tie.

The surname Hiromi has a kanji meaning "day" (hi) and a rendaku pronunciation of "vehicle" (車, guruma). His name has kanji meaning "tolerant, indulgent, generous" (寛, hiro) and "seeing" (見, mi). His name reflects the way he willingly keeps his eyes "open"
