![]() Usually after waking up, his hair is extremely messy. He has unruly short taupe-brown hair, with bangs that reach just below his eyes. Houtarou is a young boy with average height and build. Also, Houtarou respects other people, which is shown when he wanted to learn why his former English teacher wanted to look at helicopters outside (having known the reason but wanting to make sure because not doing so would be insensitive to his teacher's feelings). He does show a sense of maturity and shrewdness, understanding Fuyumi's true motive for wanting the Classics Club to help with the group's independent film by writing the whole script, but being manipulated to think otherwise and understanding Mayaka's cousin's relationship and being able to explain it to Eru. As Eru states, Houtarou is actually a kind person who often helps others, including herself and rarely does things for himself. During all of that, Satoshi hurt Eru because she blamed herself for her negligence that allowed that theft to be done. He can also be kind, and he does care about his friends, which is shown in the case of Mayaka's Valentine chocolate when he got mad at Satoshi for stealing and breaking it, as Satoshi disregarded Mayaka's feelings and tried to avoid answering her confession. As stated by Chitanda, Oreki is humble, and does not brag about his ability to solve mysteries, which possibly might be the main reason for Chitanda's admiration towards him. In the anime, Houtarou also has quite an overactive imagination, which is responsible for frequent hallucinations he has when Eru asks him for a help (for example, he imagines that Eru entraps him with growing flowers or he sees many Eru-like little angels surrounding him saying "I'm curious").ĭespite all of that, Houtarou is capable of appreciating praise, and has shown to have a tendency of exerting more than what he would usually do when given positive feedback. In addition, it is so rare for him to be interested in something, that when he really wants to do something on his account, his friends become concerned and think he is sick. ![]() Houtarou was right, however, he spent the whole day trying to figure out what the school announcement was about. For example, once he made a bet with Eru about being able to make a theory for any situation, in that case for a strange school announcement. Ironically, during his attempts to avoid wasting his energy, he only ends up wasting it more. Houtarou can always find a solution if he gives it enough thought. Despite being overall brilliant, Houtarou gets very average grades. On the other hand, he is surprisingly smart and clever, having brilliant deduction skills which allow him to solve different mysteries. In general, Houtarou doesn't express his emotions much. Along with his passive demeanor, Houtarou seems to always "conserve energy" and never exerts effort on anything unless absolutely necessary thus coming off as sluggard.Īlso, because of his attitude, Houtarou doesn't talk much, and he rarely gets mad, though he does appear to get irritated often. Houtarou is an apathetic, cynical and calm person. Houtarou enrolled in Kamiyama High School in April 2000 (2012 in anime). According to previous fiscal year intermediate examination results, Houtarou achieved moderate results as he was ranked as #175 out of 350 examinees. Īs a student, Houtarou has been in the same class and school as Mayaka since their first grade in elementary school, and they later met Satoshi Fukube in Kaburaya Middle School. Occasionally, he reads manga if it interests him. His typical day at home consists of reading the daily newspaper and napping. Houtarou lives with his older sister Tomoe and his father in a detached house, though due to Tomoe's constant travels Houtarou is often alone at home.
