Shigeru

Shigeru is a Human Samurai and serves as one of Eins' aides in Honesty, alongside Naomi. He helps out at the Summer Training Camp and is part of the Choushi defense force when the Return of the Goblin King event occurs.

Appearance
Shigeru wears a white oriental robe or kimono with a red and gold trim, a black belt with a gold buckle or ornament around his waist, and armor on his legs and forearms. He has tanned skin and short silver hair.

Personality
In Log Horizon: West Wind Brigade, Shigeru has been depicted as being a bit presumptuous, immediately questioning Kawara whether she had any experience teaching and being annoyed that she didn't. However, when she proves that she truly has the kids' best interests in mind, he comes to respect her more.

Before the Catastrophe
Shigeru was a university professor specializing in cultural anthropology.

Summer Training arc
Shigeru is one of Honesty's representatives for the Summer Training Camp, working closely with Shouryuu and Kawara. When the Sahuagin attack the beach, he works together with the other representatives present, sans Marielle, to buy time for the kids to escape. They themselves manage to fend off the monsters and escape, rejoining the main group at the school.

Collapse of the Round Table
After Eins abandons his plan for the Akiba Governing Body, Shigeru is one of the few who remains by his side. When some angry ex-members start getting violent, Shigeru responds in turn and the fight is only broken up by outsider intervention. Once Eins goes on his self-imposed exile, Shigeru is one of those who follows him to Ikoma.
