Would your character know Risumaru?
His work includes but not limited to:
Idol Groups (both fictional and real)
Musicals
Movies/Cinematography
Music
Dancing
Rhythm Games
If your OC actively enjoys or follows any of these to an extent, then they probably know of Risumaru! He’s not a performer himself, but he’s always credited in everything he’s worked and participated in-- if anything, your OC might have seen his name in the credits of something. His work ranges from providing choreo for anime or dancing games (ones like Dance Central, Dance Evolution, Just Dance, you know the drill) all the way to working with big name Broadway musicals and training Idol Performers, both newbies and veterans. He also gets hired for movies, not to act, but for any dance numbers the movie may have. He’s also responsible for choreo in music videos.
Outside of his career and before he become a choreographer, his name was already sort of Out There-- he used to be the heir to his father’s conglomerate company, Gold Gates International. There would have been headlines here and there about Risumaru rebelling against the idea of becoming the future owner of said company after his performance at the charity dance and speaking out his dream of becoming a choreographer.
SPEAKING OF, your OC might also know Risumaru through a viral video of his charity dance performance, as well the news that followed after it about a middle schooler planning, teaching, and performing a complex dance performance all on their own. He’s also been on live talent shows.
General information about Risumaru?
Risumaru is extremely active on social media, posting tidbits of practices, dance covers, or just choreo he’s made up for songs he likes! Since he works for anime-related media too, he sometimes shows up at cons to host dance tutorial panels.
Risumaru can speak fluent English! Catch him mixing up English words into his sentences because it Sounds Cool.
Nothing seems to anger, stress, or annoy Risumaru. He’s extremely chill to the point that he continues to treat people who hate him as a pal, or at the very least, an acquaintance. But if you want to test how long Risu can go for without getting pissed, by all means!
Risumaru used to by “Risu Tengoku” before filing a name-change at age 14. He’s trans, but still accepts Risu as a nickname!
Shipping
I ship with chemistry ofc, but honestly, Risumaru isn’t really the type to fall in love easily, or pursue it actively. BUT YANNO IF THINGS GO DOWN AND SOMETHING DOES HAPPEN, I’M TOTALLY OPEN TO IT! so shipping is an a-ok, as long as 1. it isn’t forced, and 2. you give me a heads up if ur oc is crushing! i’ll do so in return if Risumaru does end up catching feelings too.
