Onodera, Ritsu

小野寺律

Ritsu is a 25-year-old cynical literary editor. As the only son of the head of Onodera Publication, he previously worked in the literature department at his father's company. After hearing colleagues accuse him of receiving hand-outs from his father, he decides to prove he can succeed on his own by taking a job at Marukawa Publishing. Having been hurt by his first love in high school at age 15, Ritsu vowed never to fall in love again. However, his resolve is tested when he is reunited with the boy he once loved, who is now a grown man and his new boss. It was also mentioned that he served as one of Usami Akihiko's (from Junjou Romantica) editors at his previous job.
