you can’t say no to this. Although Nai looks around 12 ~ 14, along with his intelligence level and overall feeling, it often feels like he's still around 8 or 9, rather than a pre-teen.
Apparently there are times when people just tend to hallucinate Nai in his niji form.
Personality:
Nai, being a genetic fusion of the Niji animal and a human, has many qualities similar to an animal. He is quite naïve, and trusts most people. There are a lot of things he doesn’t know, and he doesn’t understand even the simplest words at first, such as ‘blood’ and ‘family’. As he spends time with Gareki and the Second Ship Crew, he learns daily, especially with Tsukumo tutoring him on basic reading and math. He is a fast learner however, and usually applies it as soon as he learns it. It helps he’s a rather curious child as well. In fact, many of his lines end with a question mark or a silent tilt of the head. He often tends to repeat what other people says exactly without knowing what it means or blurt out awkward questions, but at the same time he doesn’t know how to lie as well, so all the words that come out of his mouth is the truth. There is no hidden thoughts or ulterior motives to his words and actions, which lets even the most doubting of people become friends with Nai.
Being close to a white slate, without someone’s help he probably wouldn’t last long. He doesn’t think to doubt a person’s abilities, and he’s never shown anger or hatred to anyone. Nai is always willing to lend a helping hand to people, and he works hard at everything. As he travels with the Circus, Nai soon wishes to have strength to protect his friends, and hopes that he would be able to make other people feel warm when he is around them, just as they make him feel warm inside.
Despite him seeming to be a rather scaredy-cat, he is quite forward and sometimes moves with great action (and usually without deep thought), similar to an animal moving with instinct. He knows he’s not as strong as most people or smart as people. He knows his limits, yet when the time comes to it he acts with everything he has. He will go and protect people or a creature, even if it means him getting hurt. Although it’s very unlikely he would go and harm someone or something, he will do it if it’s the only way to protect the people he loves. His biggest priority for him is his friends. To him, friends equal family, because he doesn’t quite understand the concept of “family” yet.
Nai is the type of person with a strong and kind heart, who seems to have the natural ability to make people around him smile and realize that innocence is still present in this world.
Abilites:
Nai is a rather frail looking boy, with not much skills to live alone. However, despite this he is quite resilient and in times of need, able to at least drag a matured male some distance. His fighting skills are zero mostly, and the most he can do is use a stick to hit back or throw a rock. Also, it seems he is able to revive after his heart stops, but not much detail is known about this.
There is one part of him is special that is unlike other people- his acute sense of hearing. Having the genes of the Niji animal, he is born with super hearing abilities, able to pick up things not many people can and in far range. On quiet nights, his ears are able to pick up faint voices from all over, and also the feelings of the people close to him. It seems he almost has the power of empathy at times. His ears also seem to surpass the wall of species as well, since there is a scene that he is able to understand the strong feelings of an animal. His hearing also helps him with directions as he can navigate through sound waves rather than sight. This is due to the Niji Woods (his birthplace) having many mirages and so animals that lived there could not rely on sight to get where they needed to go.
Also, this seems to be limited only to Karoku, but he is able to talk to Karoku through a dream, although during this dream he seems to be in quite a pain.
Other: I will like for Nai to keep his previous memories of his stay here, if possible?
