Ken Miyamae

Ken Miyamae (宮前 剣 Miyamae Ken) is an editor at Monthly Girls' Romance and Umetarou Nozaki's current editor. Nozaki likes that he responds quickly in comparison to his previous editor. In his high school days, he was classmates with Mitsuya Maeno.

Appearance[]

Ken has short, dark greenish-blue hair and wears glasses. He appears to be overweight, but as revealed in Chapter 21 of the manga (Chapter 22 in volume format), he was originally slim in his first years of high school and college. The main source of his weight gain comes from stress caused by Maeno.

Ken often wears casual clothing, such as sweats and hoodies.

Personality[]

Ken is a calm, responsible person. He is a competent editor and keeps Nozaki on track when Nozaki's work tends to get derailed. In the manga, Nozaki describes Ken as "The Type That Gives Off The Feeling Of A Cool Adult." It isn't unusual for Ken to seem that way, as he barely reveals anything about his personal life. Nozaki even went out of his way to mark the date when Ken accidentally talked about his class reunion.

Relationships[]

Ken and Maeno

Maeno and Ken used to be classmates in high school. They are both editors under Monthly Girls' Romance, though Maeno is his senpai by two years. Ken cannot stand Maeno's personality, although Maeno believes they are good friends.

Umetarou Nozaki[]

Umetarou Nozaki, pen name Yumeno Sakiko, is a mangaka under Ken's management. Their professional relationship started out roughly, but due to Ken's competence in his work, Nozaki soon became attached and is eternally grateful to him, going as far as saying he'd treat Ken better than a girlfriend. In contrast to Ken, Nozaki strongly disliked working under Maeno.

Etymology[]

Ken (剣) means "sword, blade, saber".

Miyamae (宮前): Miya (宮) means "temple, palace" and Mae (前) means "previous".
