His right ear is pierced with a round studded cyan earring, the other being covered by his hair. His voice is gentle, though it becomes strained when he is excited or curious. His show outfit consists of a yellow ribbon, navy dress shirt, black vest, and a long pink-and-purple tailcoat with a neon chartreuse splatter pattern over the shoulders and the bottom edge of the coat. He wears white pants with black knee-high boots and short, white gloves. The ends of his rolled sleeves contain short, white lace poking out of the ends. The inside of his tailcoat is the same chartreuse color as the splatters on the outside, with a darker checkered-rhombus pattern. These same rhombuses are found in white on the lower wing collar and the hems of his boots. A friend of his made this outfit for him.[1] For his casual outfit, he wears a green-hooded jacket with the cuffs colored pink, orange, and green. The jacket is overlaying a shirt with a pattern of two diagonal stripes — one grey, the other white — and two other stripes going the opposite direction — one a pale blue, the other a darker blue with white stripes. The hem of his shirt is white and it is shown a cyan undershirt. He also wears black, baggy pants. BACKGROUND: Nene's neighbor and childhood friend, Rui is an easy-going genius. He's meticulous about making every show the best it can be, making use of his flair for technology and inventiveness. He even builds robots to use on stage. His somewhat unique way of thinking often gets him labeled as a weirdo. Rui and Nene are next-door neighbors, as well as childhood friends. Rui was the one who recommended she join Wonderlands x Showtime. He manages the group's stage performances and is both an actor and stage director. Rui is also very skilled in inventing machinery and creates animatronics for the shows, including NeneRobo. Rui's father is a robotics engineer and his mother is a biologist. When Rui was young, he loved to create shows and tried to include his classmates in them. However, due to his eccentric nature and risky ideas, his classmates grew to dislike doing shows with him and pushed him away. Rui eventually decided that he would perform shows on his own, using robots as his actors instead of real people. He can often be seen performing guerrilla shows on the street or in Phoenix Wonderland, which causes security to chase after him. Despite his independence, deep down, Rui has the desire to perform shows with other people again. He is given this opportunity when he joins Wonderlands x Showtime, and appreciates how Tsukasa is willing to try his inventions and stage directions. As a third year, Rui is classmates with Tsukasa in class 3-C. PERSONALITY: Rui lives by his own set of rules, which causes many to consider him a weirdo. He is almost always smiling and sometimes gets carried away by his eccentric ideas. Despite the apparent riskiness of his ideas, Rui does his best to take safety into consideration. In the event It's On! Wonder Halloween!, Rui becomes deeply concerned about Tsukasa's safety, and subconsciously holds himself back as a result. Rui also has levels of curiosity that borderline on obsession, as he loves to take toys and home appliances apart to see how they work. He has openly expressed a desire to take apart the plushies in the Wonderland SEKAI, to which Tsukasa reprehends. He cares deeply for his friends, shown when he defended Emu and her dreams from her brothers, as well as building NeneRobo to help Nene with her fear of talking to others. He is also a teasing and playful person, with an example being his constant ideas for performances that often involve putting Tsukasa's life in danger. RELATIONSHIPS: Tenma Tsukasa: Fellow group member and friend. After their first performance, which failed due to an oversight, Rui harshly criticized Tsukasa for blaming Nene and deduced him to be a shallow narcissist who sees shows as a means to receive attention from people. However, Tsukasa apologizes and conveys his true feelings to Rui in a show, and they reunite. Rui now sees him as an actor worthy of a stage, and is confident in giving him very taxing (and occasionally dangerous) stage directions, knowing that he will proudly take the role. Tsukasa thinks he's awesome but crazy. The two are known as the "Weirdo Wombo Combo" at school,[3] causing ruckus and trouble around the campus daily. Otori Emu: Fellow group member and friend. Rui thinks she's wonderfully bizarre and Emu thinks he's very cool, being quite impressed and fascinated by Rui's bright and flashy ideas. The two are very encouraging of each other, with Rui supporting Emu's goal of restoring the Wonder Stage to its former glory. When Rui stands up for Emu against her older brothers, he is passive at first, but soon loses composure when they continue to belittle their younger sister and her dreams, shutting them down quick. Kusanagi Nene: Fellow group member and friend. The two are neighbors and childhood friends, and although Nene thinks of him as a weirdo, she is still shown to be very caring towards him, with occasional concerns about his mental health. When they were young, Nene had struggled with talking to people. To try and combat this, Rui created Robo-Nene to serve as an avatar that Nene could talk through, which helped to an extent. They were both inspired to take up theatre after seeing the same play. Rui was also the one to invite her to join the troupe, having known about her talent and hobby for singing. She agrees, but chooses to perform through Robo-Nene due to her anxiety. In the Main Story, Rui is glad to see that Nene has found the courage to stand onstage by herself again. Shinonome Akito: Schoolmate and acquaintance. Despite their differences, Rui and Akito share a common interest of wanting to create successful shows. The two first met during the An Ode for the Pure of Heart event. Akito isn't too fond of Rui's ways using reverse psychology, but understands that Rui wants to create a successful show no matter what. Although Akito tends to avoid him, he also has manners and doesn't run away when he happens to make eye contact with Rui.[4] The two interact again in the event At This Festival Bathed in Twilight, when Rui gets injured. Akito reluctantly helps Rui to the medical tent and gets him treatment. Rui is extremely grateful for this, thanking Akito repeatedly until they part ways. Rui seems to be glad that Akito cares about his health, and appreciates Akito's hard work and effort when Vivid BAD SQUAD does their performance at the Shibuya Festival. Aoyagi Toya: Schoolmate and acquaintance. The two first met during the An Ode for the Pure of Heart event. Although Toya had heard of Rui due to previous rumors, he grew to respect Rui as they worked together on the wedding show. In Rui's Never Give Up Cooking! card, Rui didn't want to say that Toya's cupcakes looked and tasted bad because he didn't want Toya to feel like giving up. He then encouraged Toya to keep trying. Asahina Mafuyu: Rui seems know Mafuyu through Mizuki, despite them meeting for the first time during the At This Festival Bathed in Twilight event. He was able to deduce Mafuyu's true personality thanks to information from Mizuki. When Mafuyu expresses she doesn’t have anything she wants to do, he gives her advice. He says that Mafuyu does, but realizing it is more difficult than it seems, and he didn’t know what he wanted to in the past either. Akiyama Mizuki: Friends since middle school. They bonded over being outcasts, hanging out on the roof together and mostly skip classes. In the KAMIYAMA HIGH FESTIVAL! event, Rui seems happy to see that Mizuki has found friends. Mizuki was the one who created Rui and Nene's stage outfits,[5] after they ran into Rui working on Robo-Nene and found it totally uncute.[6] Hatsune Miku: Virtual Singer and friend.
