Appearance
Wheely looks like a fucking MESSSSS and i love him.

Personality
Wheely is a supportive friend to Joodan, if not a bit socially awkward. He is extremely intelligent, but often gets in his own way while playing checkers, overthinking his moves, sometimes resulting in panic attacks. His is shown to have a bit of a competitive streak, which arises from his insecurities about being smart enough to keep around. In the end, though, Wheely cares deeply for his friends and will go out of his way to support them when it's most important, even if it's hard for him. Wheely has shown himself to be poor at reading social cues, shown by his inability to notice when Asono Sota flirts with him. It is yet to be seen if Wheely has romantic feelings for Sota. Wheely is also the only person in the friend group who can control Yui, though his ability to do so is not reliable.

History
Wheely has been friends with Joodan, Yui, and Sota since grade school.
