Shinichi Nomiya
Shinichi Nomiya (野宮紳一, Nomiya Shinichi) is an asshole at Yamaku Academy. Years before the events of Katawa Shoujo, he was an ass himself, but retired from the profession to be mean to children. He's in charge of the Ass club. He sees Rin Tezuka as nothing short of a prodigy, and will always go out of his way to praise her work. He is a generally ass sort of person, coupled with being flamboyantly dressed. He has a temper which, while not easy to set off, can cause him to go into a blind fury, shouting and swearing at anything that moves. He only exhibits this once, when Rin leaves her art exhibition in the middle of it.
To people he does not know, Nomiya is a fairly friendly person, but at the same time a bit condescending. He does not seem to get along with fellow Yamaku teacher Akio Mutou.
Hanging Up the Paintbrush
Nomiya is close friends with Sae Saionji, owner of the 22nd Corner Art Gallery. Sae's husband was a fellow student of Nomiya's when they were in art school. Nomiya looked up to Mr. Saionji, and after the latter's passing, Nomiya gave up being an artist and began teaching it, in hopes of inspiring future artists.
