Keita Amano Husbando

Keita Amano is the protagonist of the GAMERS! series. He is the older brother of Kōsei Amano, a student from class 2-F and a member of a non-school recognized gamer appreciation group together with Chiaki Hoshinomori and Tasuku Uehara. Keita is a young man with dark violet eyes and brown hair with messy bangs. According to Konoha Hoshinomori, Keita has a plain look to his face and doesn't really stand out as much. He wears a typical Otobuki High School uniform like his male classmates though has been seen in casual clothes. He is a bit shorter than other boys at the school for his age. Keita performs averagely at school. He loves to play video games for the sake of fun and enjoyment. He plays so much that even at school, he still plays RPG games on his smartphone, giving him no time to make friends with others. Due to this, he develops an inferiority complex in which he finds it hard to interact with other people properly. This somewhat gives the impression that he looks down on others since he barely talks to anyone in his class and keeps to himself. When he met Karen, his situation slowly changed as he met and befriended a variety of people them which caused him to open up more social activity. He treasures the new friends he has made, as shown when he defended Karen's club for their actions by threatening Tasuku Uehara, helped Eiichi Misumi get a game and rushed to comfort Aguri Sakurano when he believed she was dumped, even giving up the chance to buy a game he wanted which shocked his friends who believed he would do the opposite. Despite previously having problems with her, he still cares for Chiaki Hoshinomori, as shown when he carried her after she collapsed out of dizziness and tended to her before she woke up. He even told her that he still values her association with him as she was one of the few to show him kindness, which left her touched. He is quite oblivious as shown when he didn't know he obtained Karen's affections because he defended her or when he attracted the affections of Chiaki and her sister, Konoha Hoshinomori. Due to this, he was shocked when he realized Karen actually liked him after his accidental confession but decided to ask her out since he realized he felt the same about her. He was also unaware that Chiaki was his online game friend after she lied and said her sister was, despite the obvious being pointed otherwise and nearly figuring it out. After he became Karen's boyfriend, he treasured his time with her though he mistakenly assumed she liked Tasuku because of his looks and popularity. However, he still has nothing but care for her as shown when he offered to hold her hand at a festival or when he admitted he could think of her for hours while playing a game. In the light novels, he and Karen broke up but they remain on good terms though he is still the object of her affections. Similar to the beginning, he is unaware of this as well as Chiaki competing with Karen for his affections. In Volume 11 of the light novel, Keita asked Karen out (without any misunderstandings) on White Day and she accepted, making them officially a couple again. That same day, he formally asks Chiaki to be friends with him instead of rivals, which she also accepts. Aguri notes that his new relationships with them are strange, as he has become comfortably argumentative with Karen about their disagreements on games and bizarrely affectionate with Chiaki about their agreements on games, essentially the opposite of what his dynamics with were previously. Keita quickly develops a close friendship with Aguri over the course of the series due to their frequent restaurant meetings to discuss their romance troubles, to the point that outsiders mistake them for a couple and their own friends get jealous with how intimate their bond is. They have unwavering support for each other's happiness and are eager to see the other's romantic aspirations come to fruition. The two are known to tease each other and exchange sarcastic quips, usually ending with both laughing. Amano is also fiercely protective of Aguri's wellbeing. When his classmates try to bully Tasuku by insulting her, Keita immediately jumps to defend her honor from their comments, despite having allowed those same bullies to belittle him personally and having casually complained about Aguri himself earlier. The light novels show them having a routine where she jokingly refers to him as a servant and he plays along by pretending to be exaggeratedly subservient to her to the point of annoyance. In Volume 11, Main gets him to admit that he has considered the possibility of a relationship with Aguri before, but he always refused to think of her in a romantic light and instead committed to supporting her feelings for Tasuku as a friend.
