Character Personality:
-Public Personality:Haru is a very outgoing person and likes to be in the center of all conversation but dislikes being the center of attention. If he see's someone being picked on he immediately confronts the cause and settles thing in a diplomatic way. Haru tells his friends that he can raise Otori the way that his father would have wanted. Haru strives to be a better person on a daily basis and hopes he is a good role model for Otori. When Haru is with his friends he likes to talk about relationships and always tries to make people laugh. Haru also likes singing with his closest friends. Even though Haru is outgoing with people, he is incredibly shy when girls are around him and it takes awhile to break the ice.
-Private Personality:Although in Public Haru is very spontaneous, in private he is usually writing in his notebook or reading. Sometimes Otori see's Haru looking through old pictures with tears in his eyes. Although in public he pretends everything is fine, Haru can't take the loss of his father and mother and tries to be strong for his brother. Due to the loss of his parents, Haru is very over protective of his brother. On certain nights Haru likes to go to musicals and let the music calm his nerves. Tries to workout his left arm so he can play baseball again.
-Character Goals:Haru's main goal is to make sure Otori stays on his schoolwork and develops into a modest and kind man. Haru wants to keep his grades up and wants to pursue his dream of singing in musicals or even teaching music. One other important goal for Haru is for him to find a way to cope with the loss of his parents and be a good role model. One more important goal for Haru is to find a girlfriend who can stand his stupid antics.

History: Haru Saika was born in a small industrial town in central Japan to Tekeshi and Oichi Saika. The Saika family moved away from the town because the parents of Oichi disliked Tekeshi due to family differences, and settled in the small town of Honnioji. For the next five years Haru grew up like every other little boy does, going to school, playing with others, getting in fights.
Two years later Otori was born on May 10, 1998 in Honnioji hospital. Haru, who was 7 at the time, became jealous of Otori, he seemed to be getting all the attention. The next year Haru began arguing with his parents and trying to run away. It stayed this way for another 7 years.
Everything changed on October 25, 2005 when an fatal car accident killed Tekeshi Saika at the age of 42. With Tekeshi gone, Oichi fell into depression and Haru had to get a job to provide for family. Haru was changed by the death of his father, he was affected too, but tried not to show it, he tried to be strong.
The following month, Haru came back from school with Otori to find all his mothers close missing and Oichi nowhere in sight. Haru thought that she went on a trip for awhile so he waited and waited. 2 months went by and his hopes went down, it was then that he realized that his mother had abandoned him and his little brother Otori.
Haru's Uncle Hideyoshi took them in for awhile until Family Services found out and said that he couldn't care for them unless a parent legalized him as a guardian. Family Care enrolled Haru and Otori at Anima High School. Haru saved up enough money to quit his job and be a full student and to pay so Otori could be in the same dorm room with him.
It was then that Haru realized that he was all Otori had left and became the over protective big brother he is today.The next two years were average and Haru played baseball and was even going to get a huge scholarship until falling down the stairs and landing on his left arm. The year is about to begin again and Haru is here waiting for it to start.
