Akihiro Hirata

Akihiro Hirata, nicknamed Nico-chan-senpai, is a third-year science and engineering student at Kansei University and a resident of Chikuseiso's Room 104. His nickname comes from a past nicotine habit. He ran track in high school but quit because of his coach, then returns to running under Haiji's influence. In the process, he gives up smoking and takes up wire sculpting, creating small metal figures as a substitute.
