Joe Tazuna Husbando

Joe Tazuna is one of the 20 chosen to participate in the Death Game. He is a second-year high school student at Sonobeno High School and the best friend of Sara Chidouin. Joe is an average high school boy with messy brown hair and reddish-brown eyes. On the left side of his head, he wears a yellow hair-clip that resembles a lightning bolt. He wears multiple gold piercings on his left ear, but keeps his right ear hidden behind his hair. Unlike Sara, who wears her school uniform properly, Joe seems to prefer a casual, looser style. He wears his blue school blazer unbuttoned, with his sleeves rolled up past his elbows. His shirt is unbuttoned at the collar, but buttoned the rest of the way down. Like Sara, he wears a green checkered tie. He also wears brown pants, presumably befitting of Sonobeno's dress code, with black loafers, Additionally, Joe sports three gold bracelets on his right arm, a dog bone necklace at the end on his left, and a small dog key-chain in his right breast pocket. Being a participant of the Death Game, He wears a Collar as do all participants, Dummies, and Floor Masters. In Sara's Past Episode, Joe wears a green hoodie with a purple shirt and black pants, Joe also puts his dog keychain in the lower pocket of his hoodie and wears a second dog bone necklace around his neck. Joe is an extremely upbeat, excitable, considerate, and loyal person. He is easily embarrassed when others misinterpret him and is sensitive to how people perceive his appearance. Like Sara, Joe puts in all his efforts to help the group succeed in the puzzles. He consistently convinces the group to believe in Sara and her abilities and generally places most of his trust to her. Though he is described as gaudy by Reko Yabusame and has a small habit of saying the wrong things at the wrong time, Joe is genuinely kind-hearted and sensitive to others' feelings. Although not academically one of the smartest in the group, he does provide occasional insights. Despite his constant optimism and belief in others, Joe is not incapable of suspicion, as he was the first to suggest the presence of a traitor among the participants. Furthermore, while reluctant and torn over what winning the Main Game would mean, he was willing to go through with it, up until Sara exposed his true role.
