Aoyagi Toya (青柳 冬弥), Aoyagi Toya is a second-year student at Kamiyama High School. He is a member and main track composer of the street music group Vivid BAD SQUAD.
The son of a classical musician and a prodigy, Toya aims to surpass the legendary event RAD WEEKEND and has started composing for Vivid BAD SQUAD. Despite initially feeling overwhelmed after seeing the heights he would need to climb to reach that goal, he now hopes to use his experience to surmount this wall with his team and see the view from the top.
Toya's father was a famous classical musician and trained Toya and his two older brothers in classical music from a very young age, specifically piano and violin. His father would isolate Toya and force him to study classical music at all hours of the day. This caused him to despise his father, and by association, the entirety of classical music. As such, he started performing street music to rebel against his father and eventually met Akito while singing on the street.
He sang together with Akito under the name BAD DOGS before forming Vivid BAD SQUAD with An and Kohane. Even after joining Vivid BAD SQUAD, he still operates under the BAD DOGS unit with Akito.
As a first year, Toya was classmates with Nene in Class 1-B. As a second year, he is classmates with Mizuki in class 2-B.
Toya has sharp grey eyes and a mole under the corner of his left eye. His hair is short and bicolored, the right side a dark blue, the left a light blue. His voice is cool and calm.
Casual Outfit
In his second year, he wears a white hoodie with the letter "'n" printed on a small tag on the right of the hem under a green denim jacket with frayed spots, red stripes down the sleeves, and a red strap with the word "worth" printed along its length hanging from the right pocket. He wears black denim pants with frayed holes in the knees and a hanging red belt with a white stripe through the middle.
Unit Outfit
His outfit consists of a white graphic tee with a red collar and a purple hoodie underneath a grey jacket with black and white accents, and black ripped jeans with a red belt and long grey straps attached to the back. He wears a long necklace with a silver-colored triangular pendant and large grey sneakers with red shoelaces. He also has chunky blue headphones. The image on his shirt shows a light grey box with a cow skull outlined in white.
His second outfit consists of a black turtleneck shirt with faint wavy designs, underneath which can be seen a long, tattered white shirt, and gray pants with ripped knees and a blue stripe down the side of the left leg. He wears a navy blue jacket with white lapels, and a blue hem and cuffs; the word "DerMond" (meaning "the moon" in German) is written on a tag on the left pocket and "VERSTECKT MONAT." (meaning "hidden month" in German) is written in bold letters on the back. He wears a long silver necklace and white-and-blue running shoes.
Toya is quiet and calm but has a strong mind. His face is often deadpan, and people other than Akito and Tsukasa have difficulty reading his expressions. When people talk to him, they usually mistake him for being rude, as he is blunt and often misphrases his statements. Until becoming part of Vivid BAD SQUAD, he wasn't one to smile frequently. Despite his stoic demeanor, he is kind and quick to help others. He can occasionally be airheaded or gullible.
He is good at studying and gets high grades, a trait that he shares with Kohane. He can sometimes be strict with Akito about the latter neglecting his studies.
