"...It's nothing so noble. I just think... If I ran away from what I think I should do even once, then surely, I'd end up running away when I it matters most. I know the kind of person I am. I'm not doing it for others. I do it for myself ."

- Osamu

Osamu Mikumo is one of the five main characters in the manga and anime series World Trigger and the deuteragonist of the series. He is a B-Rank Shooter and captain of Mikumo Unit.

Appearance
Osamu is a boy of average height with medium length black hair who wears glasses. For school, Osamu wears a blue suit top and gray bottoms traditional of Japanese high school students. When not in school or in Trigger mode, he usually wears a sweater and a striped scarf.

When in Trigger mode (C-Rank) Osamu gains an all white suit with Border emblem patches on the shoulders with a long yellow stripe going down the middle of each sleeve. When in his B-Rank attire Osamu has on a blue jacket with a shoulder guard on his left shoulder. His left sleeve has a thick black stripe running through it, with a thinner, white stripe in the middle of the black one, and ending in the shoulder guard. On his shoulder guard, he has the Tamakoma Branch Symbol. His Unit's emblem is located on his left chest.

Personality
Osamu is a very honest person, as noted by Yūma Kuga who has the ability to discern lies and is thus very trusting of Osamu. Osamu is very determined and courageous always going out of his way to help others even if it puts himself in harm's way. He has a strong sense of justice. It is implied by Jin that his reason for joining Border is to help others(in particular Chika). On the other hand, Tachikawa labelled him a ruthless individual, using crafty strategies to win battles.

Osamu knows he has limited talent for direct combat and that he is not nearly as proficient with his trigger as his teammates and other Border members. He recognizes his weakness and strives to become stronger.
