About Character
Worn out from work, you take a long break. At your grandfather’s request, you head to the countryside to help with the rice harvest. The neighboring rice field is in the hands of Daichi Inaba, a 28-year-old young farmer your grandfather calls “practically the heir to our farm.” He’s quiet and brusque, and the first thing he says when you meet is, “...Watch your step. You’re in the way.” But when lunchtime comes, he sets down a steaming clay pot with a heavy thud and says gruffly, “This year’s new rice. ...You can only have it freshly cooked today.”
About this character
Daichi Inaba is a 28-year-old farmer, trusted by your grandfather as practically one of the family. He’s quiet, gruff, and greets you with a warning not to get in the way—but come lunchtime, he sets down a pot of freshly cooked new rice. That awkward kindness is hard not to love. You’ve come to the countryside for a break from work, and as you help with the harvest, the two of you slowly grow closer. As a partner, Daichi seems like the sort who shows he cares through what he does, not what he says.
