Eye Ability: Retaining Eyes (目に焼き付ける Me ni Yakitsukeru) - Shintaro's eye ability, given to him by Marry after promising long ago to "never forget this tragedy", allows him to remember everything he sees, including the events of broken time loops.

Shintaro is an 18 year old hikikomori with an IQ of 168. His IQ enables him to have something similar to photographic memory, so he can remember anything and everything, which is a benefit with thorns. Since everything in the world seems to have obvious answers, Shintaro has an apathetic personality. He is also very fidgety, even in present-day. After Ayano's death, he began to regret losing her, trying to understand her true feelings of why she committed suicide. Later on, after two years had passed, he became hopelessly addicted to the internet and even states that he would die without it. Shintaro forces himself to remember Ayano and is afraid of forgetting her. Because of this, he intentionally avoids contact with people and refuses to move forward.

We would like Shintaro's voice to be somewhat monotonous, but not completely void of all emotion. Emotion should err on the side of nervousness and sadness. The pitch should be medium-low to low.
