古林 智士

Satoshi is a college student from a Tokyo university, specifically part of the Folklore Research Seminar. As a junior to Souko, he finds solace in his hobbies, which include delving into books and taking strolls through the city. He also has a particular fondness for Chinese Ramen, especially Chuka Soba. Despite being in the academic setting, Satoshi often remains in the shadows, not drawing much attention to himself. He might not be the sharpest in his class, but he possesses a unique perspective and proves himself to be quite observant. Time and again, he acts as a pillar of support for the reserved Souko, assisting her as she navigates various social situations. There's something about Satoshi's youthful appearance and his calm demeanor that seems to captivate those older than him, often evoking a protective or even parental instinct. "I feel this way... because I want to keep you safe." [From Getchu]
