Summary
Atsushi Nakajima, an 18-year-old standing 170 cm tall with an AB blood type, serves as the protagonist of the series. Born on May 5, he weighs 55 kg. His name is derived from the Japanese author who lived from 1909 to 1942, and the character is based on a figure from the author's short story "The Tiger Man." In that tale, an unfulfilled bureaucrat wanders into the forest chasing a voice that transforms him into a tiger, eventually reverting to his human form to ask an old friend to relay his poems to humanity. Atsushi possesses the ability Beast Beneath Moonlight, which allows him to transform into a self-healing white tiger. However, he initially struggles with no control over this power. He holds a deep dislike for himself and the orphanage where he was raised, while his preferences include chazuke, cats, chameleons, and Yokohama.
