Riku Haruma

Riku Haruma (遥馬 理久, Haruma Riku), also known as Riku Asamiya (朝宮 理久, Asamiya Riku), is the main protagonist of Try Knights. He is a first year student.

Appearance
Riku is a bookish boy with a shock of black hair, brown eyes, a narrow chin, an upturned nose, and angular facial features.

He wears corrective glasses and is attired in a school uniform of a blue blazer, light tan shirt, a white undershirt and a red tie.

Personality
A cool personality, Riku has a long-time passion for rugby, but he became dejected when his physique seemed prohibitive to playing. He applies an analytical and strategic mind to the sport, but is unhealthily averse to losing. Riku forms a strong friendship with Akira Kariya, although they are often at odds with each other.
