Suzuka Akafuku

Suzuka Akafuku (赤福鈴鹿, Akafuku Suzuka) is a character in the series Advance! Kitakou Broadcasting Club.

Appearance

Classic Kitakou

Suzuka's appearance at the start of the series is that of a ninja. Though he wears the standard boys' school uniform (a white uniform shirt and blue slacks), he keeps his face obscured with a black mask from which only his eyes are clearly visible. When unmasked, he is shown to have wild red hair.

Kitakou Pure

This version of Suzuka does not wear the ninja mask. His uniform consists of a pair of burgundy slacks, a dark shirt worn under his white uniform shirt, and a long brown scarf.

Profile

Suzuka is a third year and the president of the broadcasting club (and in the electronics department), though it is hard for most people outside of the club to understand his speech, due to the fact that he speaks in a special "ninja language" and is masked, making nnph nnph and nee sounds. But when he is relaxed or excited, his speech changes to that of a Kansai dialect.

He acts as an older brother to the others and is quite lively and honest, contrary to his ninja appearance. It is said that he also hates ninjutsu. His dog's name is "Pochiru-Angelica".

Relationships

The two have a dysfunctional sort of relationship as student presidents, with Miyako often berating him or treating him harshly overall. But she will sometimes show her gratitude for his help.

Trivia

• Like the other Kitayume characters, Suzuka's full name is a pun off of the prefecture that he is modeled after. Suzuka is a city in the Mie Prefecture while akafuku is a type of mochi made with sweet red bean paste that the prefecture is famous for.
