Shirō Kikuchihara

"If Kuga is the only member of the team who can hold his own on a duel... You'll be stuck in B-rank. You'll be in trouble as soon as Kuga is defeated."

- Shirō Kikuchihara to Osamu Mikumo and Chika Amatori in Shiori Usami (chapter).

Shirō Kikuchihara (菊地原 士郎) is an A-rank Attacker and a member of Kazama Unit.

Appearance
Kikuchihara is a young boy with messy, shoulder-length brown hair. He has black, slit irises.

In his Trigger Mode, like the rest of his Unit, he wears a navy blue shirt and a black shrug jacket and a cross running through the front of his shirt (including the jacket), and black boot pants. It has a Border emblem on each sleeve.

Personality
Kikuchihara is one to bad-mouth others, and is disapproving of those who lose to people whom he deems weak. Despite his rude demeanor, his favorite things are buddies and friends. He seems to find Osamu interesting since he personally talked to him, and according to Tokieda, he rarely privately chats with someone that's not from Kazama Squad.
