Mantou Riji

Mantou is a gentle orphan who tries to meet the world with optimism even when it treats him cruelly. Being mocked for having no parents and moving through life without a permanent home leaves a loneliness he rarely shows, but it never completely takes away his willingness to trust others.

What Mantou wants most is simple: a sincere friend and a place where he can feel wanted. Each disappointment tests that hope, yet his kindness and stubborn resilience keep him moving forward, convinced that if he continues giving warmth to others, one day he may finally find a family of his own.
