STYLE ) he normally wears basketball shorts with a plain t-shirt and sneakers but if it starts getting cold or chilly, he puts on the volleyball club's jacket with much pride and affection as he is still unable to believe that he had gotten accepted into the team despite the fact that he had never played volleyball before and only got into the sport after watching the seniors from his current highschool play when he was in junior high. the fact that he earned the club jacket through hardwork is what makes shuu so fond of the jacket and is the reason why he wears it so often despite having no school or club practice
EXTRAS ) shuu has bright orange hair, which seems to be a distinct trait in his family though the colour may often vary in tone. shuu's hair seems to possibly the brightest orange in the hirasawa family lineage whereas natsu's hair is more matte in colour and asako's is more of a light orange-ish brown colour

QUOTE ) dialogue-less: backlit against the setting sun
PERSONALITY TRAITS ) garrulous, honest, jovial, gullible, determined, credulous
PERSONALITY ) shuu equals an endless array of word vomit coming at you at full force. he is similar to that of a drunk middle aged man or a nagging relative, always yammering nonstop about something happening in their lives or trivial things that no one really cares about. well actually, he resembles more of a curious preschooler than anything else, considering the fact that his height isn't all that impressive and that he has the face of a guileless little kid but this isn't about aesthetics. shuu always seems to be spewing some sort of nonsense everytime of day, no matter where he is or what he is doing. in addition to that, he also believes everything and anything anyone tells him, unable to differentiate between what is fiction, fact and not surprisingly, sarcasm. this credulous behaivour of his often makes him in easy target for people to cheat and scam off of him, as he is very easily swayed, sweet talk or not. shuu has no filter when it comes to speaking and is painfully honest(not to mention incredibly stupid); often pointing out things out that others normally wouldn't point out, due to obvious reasons that aren't so obvious to shuu himself or always stating things ("zombies are actually dead people!") and pointing out things that are as clear as day due to uncontainable excitement, or to feel like the smart cookie of the group for identifying something before someone else did ("hey! that's a zombie!!11"). shuu does things that are considered out of the norm or just extremely idiotic ("how about we ask that zombie where we can find food!! EXCUSE ME, ZOMBIE-SAN-") yet is completely oblivious to the fact and only urges others to join him.
the thing about shuu is that he is always seems to be in an awfully joyful mood, no matter the situation, which often leads people to believe that he is unable to take things seriously therefore, view him as some sort of joke; leaving him out of conversations or discussions involving teamwork and strategies believing he would only be in the way(they just think he's like dumb and incompetent). though aware of this fact, he doesn't show any signs of being bothered by it and instead, uses it to fuel his drive and motivate himself to become someone more serious and charismatic. with that being said, if he weren't so naturally optimistic, this motivation and goals to become charismatic would be probably be an entirely different story. ("YEAH! LET'S GO KNOCK DOWN SOME ZOMBIE HEADS!!") when shuu attempts to take things more seriously, he ends up becoming overly zealous, naive and causes natural disasters to occur because he uses such unconventional means to get to places and to do things, and often just suggests some stupid things at times. ("can we keep this zombie as a pet? pretty, pretty please?") shuu really loves watching action and adventure related movies, especially the ones with all of the spies, assassins or heroes featured in it. because of his love for such, he makes alot of movie references and quotes a load of his favourite character's dialogue, thinking it makes him look cooler even if he fobs out while saying it. "(with great power, comes great res- respawn- respoons- no- re- re- responsibilities!")
HISTORY ) hirasawa shuu was born on the 29th september in 1998 to a married couple of 2 years; hirasawa takao and ueno kanako, whom had recently just moved from okinawa to hakodate in order for takao to open up a bojutsu dojo there. shuu's childhood had been relatively normal, well, aside from the fact that takao was this macho dojutsu instructor who had been ecstatic to learn that he would be having a son, eager to pass down his years of knowledge and experience in dojutsu to shuu. at the age of five, shuu was already familiar with his father's dojo, often watching his father teach his students and secretly copying the movements with an imaginary bo, thinking no one would notice(haha). a month later, shuu had started learning bojutsu with his father as his instructor, thinking it would be all fun as it was his father who was his instructor but boy was he wrong. ("apparently it's called tough love "-12 year old asako to a young 5 year old shuu).
three years later, kanako gave birth to a girl, known as natsu and shuu would come to love and adore her after he got over the jealously stage that every older sibling would probably have to go through, which he did in the end. at the age of 15, when shuu was entering his final year of junior high school, he would become interested in volleyball after watching a practice match between his junior high school's volleyball team and a senior high school's volleyball team- eventually leading up to him enrolling into that senior high school solely for the purpose of signing up for the club, albiet after dedicating all his spare time during and out of school, to learning the basics of volleyball, in order to show the volleyball team that he was somewhat knowledgable and competent at the sport despite never playing the sport before in his life. ("look look! i'm an official member of the volleyball club") when shuu had gotten accepted into the club, he had been proud of the fact and wore the club jacket both during and out of school and nearly every where he went, just to show it off. shuu had spent the rest of his senior highschool years playing volleyball and practicing bojutsu, and occassionally biting his tongue and holding back screams and wails while watching those horror and thriller themed movies with natsu because she seemed to love it so much
OCCUPATION ) third-year student, member of the school's volleyball club
TRIVIA )
("orange is beautiful") shuu's favourite colour is orange
("yes to cherry tomatoes! no to regular tomatoes") shuu has an eternally blossoming love for cherry tomatoes and eats them as if his life depends on it but give him some regular tomatoes and he'll look at both you and the tomatoes in pure horror and disgust
("senpai!") as a third year student at his local highschool, shuu loved being referred to as senpai by his juniors or anyone younger than him because it made him feel, like, super freaking awesome and felt that people admired and looked up to him technically, they all looked down at shuu because the juniors are pretty tall but you know
("oh of all times!") the zombie outbreak occured just a while after mr and mrs hirasawa had decided to leave for their second honeymoon. shuu and natsu had been waiting at the bus stop, early one morning, to catch the next bus to town but it seemed as though the bus was running late. it was already 15 minutes behind schedule but it didn't seem like it was going to show up anytime soon much to the hirasawa sibling's dismay. shuu inwardly cringed at the thought of disappointing his beloved younger sister, especially after promising to take her to see the new zombie movie sequel as soon as it came out into cinemas so as he silently wept and prepared himself- his cousin; hirasawa asako rocked up and asked if they needed a ride to which they answered "hells yeahm praise the lord, bless u asako" so asako ended up dropping them off at the cinemas, located in central hakodate; telling them she would pick them up later at this exact spot. shuu and natsu went to see the movie, unaware that halfway during the movie, there were actual zombies mauling people alive outside the cinemas until they left the cinemas and were nearly stepped on bec short seperated due to the confusion and panic among the horde of screaming citizens. they never did end up seeing asako and assumed she died lol
("aloha means hello and goodbye!") so mr and mrs hirasawa are currently having the time of their lives in hawaii, unaware that of the zombie apocalypse in hakodate and the fact that their children are staying with the M.E.A.Z association; with one scared less and missing his volleyball while the other in possession of a gun and switchblade
("but she has them too!") since shuu and natsu practically share the same facial features, he thinks that she should also be called the same generic nicknames as he is but when he brought it up once, natsu informed him that she thought "hime" suited to her better to which he wholeheartedly agreed, forgetting about the arguement he had planned earlier
("my poor poor heart") shuu hates horror and thriller movies with burning passion and is easily frightened by even the most typical and obvious of jump scares, falling for it every single time, even if he's seen the movie over a billion times and expects the jump scares. but despite that, he still watches those wretched movies with his beloved sister because no one else really wants to watch them or has the time to lol
("nii-chan thinks you're pretty!"-natsu) the only time shuu ever freezes up and goes into a near panic state, aside from being around zombies, is whenever he is approached by or talks to someone of the female gender. because he's never really interacted much with girls aside from his family and relatives, he doesn't know what to do and how to respond so he ends up stuttering and fidgeting alot, avoiding eye contact them as much as possible. his face goes bright red, whether or not he wants it to happen. and it gets much more worse when physical contact such as friendly hugs, high fives and such occur
("no! please don't tear us apart") shuu had once gotten so attached to his volleyball club jacket, so much, to the point where he refused to be away from it. even when it started to smell, he refused to put it in the wash and nearly cried when kanako tried to reason with him. takao eventually had to resort to challenging shuu to a bojutsu match, not that takao was really complaining, putting the jacket at stake. halfway during the match, natsu stole the jacket and ran off with it causing shuu to lose focus and ultimately, lose the match. he ended up sulking in his room until he got his jacket back, all clean and fresh and forgot why he was ever sulking in the first place
("the best man made thing human kind has made is") mochi ice cream. shuu thinks that this treat is a delicacy sent from the skies above and would willingly live off of them if he had that kind of money
("hirasawa natsu") natsu is shuu's beloved younger sister who recently just turned 9 years old before her parents left for their honeymoon. she is more responsible than shuu and is quick to chide him when he does something wrong or stupid. she finds him annoying but still adores him nonetheless. shuu has a sister complex and dotes on natsu like crazy, always trying to appear cool in her eyes but often failing and losing to another 'charismatic' member of the M.E.A.Z association.
("hirasawa asako") asako is the hirasawa sibling's chill as cousin who dropped them off at the cinemas, unaware of the zombie ordeal at the time. she's anything but responsible; having given natsu a gun and switchblade to hold on to, just incase she and shuu were to potentially be kidnapped or jumped, knowing that shuu wouldn't be able to do . asako is 24 years old and is unable to find a boyfriend due to her rather agressive and irresponsible nature, something shuu points out oftenjust out of curiosity, are you single

welcome to the m.e.a.z association
PRIMARY WEAPON ) shuu utilises a rokushakubo; a very tall and long staff weapon that is at least 25cm taller than him. he uses the rokushakubo in conjunction with bojutsu, a type of martial arts that involves using a staff weapon known as the bo(rokushakubo).
FIGHTING STYLE ) while utilising his bo against zombies, shuu instantly has a change in personality and takes exterminating zombies very seriously. his past experience of bojutsu with his father had left him too scared to slack off or joke and muck around because of how ruthless his father was when teaching him, as the concept of going easy on someone ceased to exist in his father's book. shuu feels more at ease when fighting with his weapon because the 180cm long bo is able keep zombies at bay yet still allows him to decapitate them from a short distance. although he isn't a bojutsu prodigy, he certainly is skilled when it comes to wielding the weapon and is more familiar with the bo, than with other weapons.
however, without his bo, shuu is better off cheering at the sidelines than going into battle. he isn't exactly fond of zombies and basically forgets how to use any given weapon("how do i shoot?!!!! i can't find the trigger for this!"- shuu holding cricket bat) upon initial contact with the zombies. when approached or surrounded by zombies, shuu will often just stare at them with a panic stricken expression before proceeding to run around in circles while screaming his head off ("ONEE-SAMA HELP! I'M GOING TO BE EATEN ALIVE!!!") at the same time, displaying excellent speed, agility and stamina(earned from years of practicing bojutsu and running to and from school but he brushes off as being naturally gifted lol)
HOW YOU JOINED THE M.E.A.Z ASSOCIATION ) on instinct, shuu grabbed hold of his sister's hand and rooted by the entrance of the cinemas, confused as to why they were all screaming and running around like headless chickens until they saw all the blood, limbs, mutilated bodies and the star of the show: zombies. since he and natsu had been sitting in a dark room with a bright screen for the entire duration of the movie, they were convinced that they were just seeing things, until they had witnessed a child no older than 4 years of age being ripped to shreds right in front of their eyes after tripping. everyone had been too caught up in trying to get away to do anything about the zombies; some even blindly shoving other people towards the direction of the zombie to distract them. shuu had been frozen in both fear and shock while natsu gripped his hand tightly, mumbling something along the lines of wanting to go home. shuu assured her that ayako would come for them but just as the words left his lips, the zombie who had previously been feeding on the child jumped at the two siblings. ("ohmygodohmygodohmygod") the zombie was promptly shot down before it could reach the siblings, dropping near their feet where someone stepped on the neck of the rotten body, decapitating it's head from the rest of it's body. shuu would flinch at the sight whereas natsu would look up at ther saviour in awe.
the two would proceed to silently follow their saviour, who lead the siblings to their groups home base or hideout camp tent abandoned warehouse where both the hirasawa siblings would eventually become unofficial members of the M.E.A.Z association from there
YOUR ROLE IN THE GROUP ) shuu, in possession of his bo is a valuable military asset to the association whereas shuu without his bo, is extra baggage that sits in the corner of the stockroom/tent place thing, eating everything edible in there because the role of the group mascot had been taken by natsu. sometimes, shuu will tag along with them when they raid places for weapons and stock or search for survivors, but only to serve as the distraction or decoy for potential enemies/zombies because he easily attracts attention with his insanely bright hair, can run long distances and is able to run fast while doing so. shuu's role in the group is basically the decoy ("so i'm really just zombie bait? no way! why me?!")
EXTRAS )
("my dear bo!") due to unforeseen circumstances, shuu doesn't reunite with his weapon until he pays a visit to his father's dojo and picks it up from there, so during the first half of his stay with the M.E.A.Z association, he's basically useless because he doesn't have a weapon to defend himself with and does not possess the basic knife and gun handling skills. maki ends up giving him a hockey stick(or piece of wood) to use
WATCH OUT FOR ZOMBIES ON YOUR WAY HOME
WHAT WAS YOUR INITIAL REACTION TOWARDS THE SUDDEN ZOMBIE BREAKOUT?
"we sat in dark room for three hours straight, and just finished watching a movie before we saw the zombies so we thought we were hallucinating or just seeing things." shuu states, almost cracking a smile before it dropped, his gaze dropping to his feet "it was terrifying, watching that zombie tear a child apart and being unable to do anything about it." he says quietly before looking up at the interviewer, "i was sooooo scared, i felt that i was going to pee in my pants! i thought it was going to be the end for us; me and natsu-chan but luckily we were saved! i guess we weren't supposed to die just yet, ne!"
IF SOMEONE YOU CLOSE TO YOU WERE TO BE INFECTED, WHAT WOULD YOU DO?
"OH MY GOD IF NATSU-CHAN GOT INFECTED" he bolts right up from his seat, looking as though he had only realized that his younger sister could potentially be in danger, trailing off mid sentence, "i don't know what i would do" he confesses, looking as though he could burst out crying right on the spot. ("he would probably run away while crying, knowing that the others would deal with her then come back to base camp with puffy red as eyes, not bothering to ask anyone of what they did and refusing to see her body until someone slaps him or something. i bet he would have an emotional breakdown, i can just see it happening- not that i want my cousin to die of course."-asako from unknown location lol)
AZUSA ASKS "WOULD YOU RATHER KILL 50 INNOCENT CIVILIANS TO SAVE THE LIFE OF YOUR MOST BELOVED OR WOULD YOU KILL YOUR MOST BELOVED TO SAVE THE LIVES OF 50 INNOCENT CIVILIANS?"
"ehhh?! what kind of question is tHAT?!" shuu promptly falls out of his seat, staring wide eyed at the interviewer expecting a valid answer that wasn't "just answer the question" "but i don't want to answer the question! wait, wait, what if my most beloved was coincidentally grouped with the innocent civilians and the one who was thought to be my most beloved wasn't my most beloved? and why is it 50 civilians, how do you know that thers exactly 50 civilians there? and how would you know if all 50 civilians were innocent? how would you know if they weren't some serial killer or burger- burglar or- " he continues to bombard the interviewer with questions and never ends up answering the initial question or getting any of his questions answered as the interviewer cuts him off mid question, telling him to shut his trap before proceeding to ask the next question
DO YOU LIKE YOUR EGGS SCRAMBLED OR SUNNY SIDE UP?
"I LIKE PANCAKES!! they have eggs in it too so it works out right?" he cheers loudly before making eye contact with the irritated interviewer and going silent. he clears his throat, "um i like having my eggs frie- su-sunny side up! mm yes sunny side up!"
COMMENTS, QUESTIONS & CONCERNS ) don't question where and why asako would give natsu a gun- "it was for safety precautions- incase they get kidnapped and get their organs sold in the black market, yeah thats totally it!! i mean, shuu and natsu look like two little guileless little kids wandering the big city of hakodate, who in the world wouldn't want to kidnap them and sell their organs?" cause this is the bull she'd answer with haha. i had fun filling out this app and look forward how you're going to write the story<33123opi5w3
