Takemoto, Takeru

竹本タケル

Takeru Takemoto serves as the series' protagonist. While he appears to be a lazy and unmotivated teenager, he is actually just uncertain about his place in the world. He was the one who discovered and named Hikari in the first episode. He possesses the ability to transform into a powerful entity with super strength and sharp appendages. He harbors an apparent crush on Hikari, blushing and becoming flustered in her presence, and eventually admits that he likes her.
