Shiroe also has a bad habit of keeping his true intentions to himself until the last possible moment, a trait that annoys Rundelhaus as to him, it means he can't even rely on his own guildmates.ĭespite this highly pragmatic nature, there are nonetheless plenty of lines Shiroe isn't willing to cross. An example is when he bribed three guild masters into giving him a huge pile of gold in order to buy the entire guild building so he could force people to go along with decisions made by himself or his newly-formed council, which he did so in order to force Hamelin's disbandment and free the players they were holding hostage, of which included Touya and Minori. However, even if he knows that others might not appreciate his actions or thank him afterwords, if he sees it as the greater good, he will use any means possible to achieve his goals. Shiroe is a rather humble person, having trouble accepting praise and often downplaying his achievements and contributions to a situation. While a generally serious individual, he at times displays a dry, acerbic wit, particularly when around Naotsugu. In addition, he can be quite protective of people he cares for, a trait that Nyanta used to tease him about. He also appears to have a soft spot for beginners, such as Touya and Minori, as he served as their mentor when they first started playing the game. He is not above helping people who are really in need, such as when he willingly gave his appearance-changing potion to Akatsuki without expecting anything in return and helped save Serara from Susukino. The sole exception was the Debauchery Tea Party, who wanted him just to have fun adventuring together, which he seems to really enjoy. This stems from the fact that people used to approach him just for his vast knowledge of the game, which is the reason he avoided being in a guild for so long. Instead, he is fiercely independent and wary of others who approach him with ulterior motives. Shiroe remained somewhat of a hikikomori through college, and he notes upon regaining consciousness in Akiba that it's been awhile since he was last outside.Īlthough Shiroe is socially awkward and tends to be asocial, he does not actually dislike other people. He also suffered from insomnia and depression, and would frequently take walks outside late at night to clear his head. Shiroe is implied to have been quite lonely before the Apocalypse as he had few friends and lived with parents who worked long hours. Naturally a cautious and thoughtful introvert, Shiroe has played Elder Tales since middle school and is a veteran with a near-encyclopaedic knowledge of the game, which is known for its depth and complexity. Even as a child, he disliked playing outdoors and from middle school-on preferred to stay indoors, where he used computers to explore virtual reality. ~ Henrietta when Shiroe reveals that he bought the entire guild building His nickname 'The Villain behind Glasses' might be rather generous if you ask me. Of all the sneaky and dastardly things out there, Shiroe has found a way to outdo them all. This outfit is topped off by his signature cloak, which has a collar large enough to comically serve as a basin for water. A bracer always sits on his forearm, although whether it provides any sort of purpose is unknown. His boots follow a similar colour scheme as his pants. Dazaneg's Magic Bag almost always rests on his left side, held in place by a belt. He wore green pants that go from a lighter green on the top to a darker green right above the knees. In Shiroe's original outfit, he wore a brown turtle-neck sweater with a harness-like thing over it. Although this is also the result of his Half-Alv race, he notes that he is insecure about it since he was called the same thing in real-life. Shiroe wears round glasses and is described by Naotsugu as having eyes that are "sanpaku," a term that means that the iris is small and doesn't completely cover the vertical axis of the eye. Currently, he's one of the few characters seen outside of the game. When he first regains consciousness in the game, he notices that his hands are more slender but also seemingly more dexterous. Shiroe in real life has black hair and a slender build, and also wears glasses. Compared to his real-life body, Shiroe is several centimetres taller in Elder Tale and his figure became slightly slimmer.
