Saiko Metori

Metori Saiko (才虎 芽斗吏, さいこ めとり lit. ) is the scion of the top-notch Saiko Conglomerate. He later transfers to PK Academy after falling in love with Teruhashi Kokomi when he was in the city. His defining traits are being rich, smug and stubborn, but throughout the story, these traits gradually disappear and Saiko begins to empathize with his classmates.

Background
Metori transferred to PK Academy in order to get closer to Kokomi but things stop going his way after transferring in when Teruhashi declines his offer because she still likes Saiki Kusuo. Metori tries threatening Kusuo and his friends by buying their parents’ companies and transferring them to Siberia (but of course Kusuo doesn’t let that slide), and after that he just kind of hangs around and tries to make people jealous of how rich and great he is.

Appearance
Metori is adorned with golden accessories from his earrings, to the rings on his fingers and on his belt. His hair is colored with two tones, gray with black roots. He is mostly seen wearing his PK Academy uniform but without the teal coat most male students wear.

Personality
Metori is severely narcissistic and arrogant due to his rich upbringing and pampered life, he constantly bosses around anyone from his class using a stack of money like Takahashi, bringing his own chef to school during lunch and bodyguards wherever he goes. He, like every boy who fell for Kokomi does everything he could to get her attention but he fails to do so and instead moved his attention to threatening Kusuo and his friends. He is seen to be keen on following his family's tradition as he would do what his father tasked him to do even if it's against his will, like walking on his way home.

Metori likes to show off his wealth and invites anyone he wants to be on his side like Kusuo, Riki, Shun, and Aren of which he later learns the painful reality that he can't always make everyone dance in his money.

After being shipwrecked on an island, Metori slowly starts to change. At first he stubbornly refuses to eat something because he feels responsable for the accident, since his ship was still under maintenance but he forced his employees to rush it and finish before it was recomended to do so. But later he agrees to eat after realizing that he is not the only one feeling responsable and others like Aren or Shun can actually be more stubborn. While doing his family training of not using his fortune for 24 hours (except for a bill of 10,000 yen), Metori experiences for the first time in his life how a "commoner" lives, having to walk, wait until he could get inside of a restaurant and eat cheap food such as ramen, which he at the end began to like. While he still maintains his narcissistic behavior, he is now more open to others and doesn't bother him to give a hand to his friends, like when he uses his money to get all the outfits for his class play acting (although with the condition of being him the main character and the producer of the story).

He shows his better side when, threatened by a meteor impact, he refuses to evacuate without his friends.
