Sakuma, Manabu

佐久間学

A music critic prone to overly poetic turns of phrase. He becomes an avid supporter of Chiaki's endeavors after hearing a performance of a Rachmaninoff concerto with Orchestra A. He lends his support to the Rising Stars orchestra. When asked why he went to such lengths to further Chiaki's career, he replied that famous musicians have always had friends who fostered their talents and that this is the role he wishes to play.
