Kurai Hatsumi (Coo-ra-eye Hat-sue-me) is the Ultimate Competitive Pokemon Player. He is known to be rather quiet and tends to keep to himself. Most of the time you will find him invested in his game boy he carries around, ignoring whenever people interact with him. His only interest is Pokemon, a game where he feels he can truly get away from the cruel reality of life. While he comes off as quiet he is actually the opposite at the topic of Pokemon itself. Kurai will continue to talk nonstop and share with people. He’s very passionate about his favorite game and wants to share a special bond with someone who’ll be able to love it just as he does. He makes references to the games, and is a little aggressive towards the anime. Whenever it comes to stating his opinion he isn’t afraid to get into arguments and tell people how things are, being very blunt.

Kurai’s voice should sound pretty tired and annoyed for the most part. He is a more medium range. The only time he starts to become energetic and excited is when he is talking about Pokemon. The biggest inspiration for his voice is Jeremy King from Xoxo Droplets, but slightly higher pitched. He also works with Dwyer from Fire Emblem Fates, just less creepy. You are allowed to do your own interpretation though and add things like nasal, we’d prefer hearing you and not a voice impression.
