An energetic and hard-working boy, his goal is to become a cool guy.
The second person featured in this issue is Hibiya Wataru-kun. We interviewed him about his “Become a Good Man Plan,” as he works day and night, striving toward his goal of becoming a cool, admirable man.
The first effort in becoming a “good man” is his daily “good man check.” Whenever he finds role models of cool, admirable men around town or at school, he never misses the chance to observe them.
“Fashion should be stolen from stylish guys on the streets. That’s what magazines say, right? When I find a good-looking guy, I always make sure to take notes so I don’t forget.”
The notes he showed us were packed with information about all kinds of boys! It seems he even works on it during his days off.
“I bring my camera when I go out, and if I see a good-looking guy, I secretly take photos of him,” he says. He says he studies their fashion and mannerisms from those photos.
At school, Hibiya-kun is also quite popular with the junior girls. Rather than being “popular” in a romantic sense, though, it feels more like he’s being treated more like a source of amusement.
His second effort is information gathering in order to become a “good man.” When asked about his sources of information, he replied:
His third effort is his “Good Guy Textbook.”
“There’s someone younger than me, but we share the same ambition of becoming a good man. His ability to gather information is seriously amazing. He often teaches me all kinds of things, so I consider him my mentor.” It seems he has a very powerful source of information supporting him.
“Books are really helpful for studying, after all,” he says. “I thoroughly read every issue of 'Monthly Good Man Life' and the 'Habataki City Complete Guide.' Oh, and of course I never miss 'Habataki Watcher' either. I buy every magazine that features Hazuki-senpai.”
It seems he especially focused to Hazuki-kun, who is known as the very image of a “good-looking man” at Habataki Academy.
He showed us photos of Hazuki-kun and himself, saying he secretly takes pictures of his seniors and imitates them. If you look veeeery closely, you’ll notice that they’re striking the same pose.
And his final effort is learning from his seniors.
“The wild Kijyo-senpai, the intellectual Morimura-senpai, and the beautiful artist Mihara-senpai, they’re all my mentors. I went all out and forced my way in as a disciple. But Hazuki-senpai is, after all, a professional model, so I feel like it would be too arrogant to call myself his disciple,” he says.
“There are a lot of good men among the upperclassmen. It would be a waste not to learn from such great examples right next to me," he says. It’s true that Habataki Academy is full of cool guys, but what kind of seniors are his role models?
During the interview, we accompanied him as he went to show the results of his research to Mihara-kun...
Hibiya-kun is imitating Mihara-kun. Hmm… that outfit only works because it’s Mihara-kun wearing it, though…
The road to becoming a “good man” is long and difficult. Do your best aiming for the top, Hibiya-kun.
I don’t understand why no one talks about the stickers on the back a Lester’s truck!! One of them says “take your ex out one bullet at a time” and I think that’s hilarious
Apologies for being gone sooooo long i just got super busy and had some really bad art block 😓. Thankyou so much to everyone who checked in on me! I appreciate it so much seriously <3
Anywayyyy here’s some vinnie! I definitely made him too slim (was contemplating changing it to chop top or nubbins bc this body suits them so much better) BUT Vincent is my man so I couldn’t help myself
I will be posting more frequently again don’t u worry x
I don’t understand why no one talks about the stickers on the back a Lester’s truck!! One of them says “take your ex out one bullet at a time” and I think that’s hilarious
I could see her having every second of the day scheduled (I truly believe the boys were home schooled, or at the very least Vincent was)
🕯She doted over Vincent- so he was more effected by it than Bo was. She wanted him to be as "well rounded" as possible- so she had him doing every type of art form, in addition to music and sports. This carried over into his adult life- he obsessively plans everything out (otherwise he gets anxiety) hence why we see him with the candle timer....
🧢Bo simply left the house/hid to avoid it. Ever the rebel- Bo refuses to make any type of plan (for anything) and instead does everything spontaneously. It doesn't help that he has trouble concentrating (I HC he has ADHD) and easily loses track of time (possibly has trouble with remembering things due to head injury from the surgery) so he ends up dropping the ball on a lot of things
🔪 Lester never got direct attention from Trudy, so instead he learned from watching/spending time with his brothers. Being a bit younger than them- they were able to pass on what they knew- and he eventually honed all those skills to suite his interests (hunting/taxidermy/wood working) He does have some trouble concentrating (also HC he has ADHD) but will actually set reminders for himself for certain things (usually writing down on a scrap of paper or the back of his arm) but he gets a lot done in a day
