1. Introduction
Harry Shima, originally going by the name of Harry Berwyn, is a Welsh immigrant from the United Kingdom. He has lived in Karakura and since he was 12, having attended all grades at Karakura Highschool. He’s currently teaching as a High School Teacher at Karakura High School, as a Computer Science Teacher.
He’s been around for many years now, having experienced many different parts of Karakuran life and meeting all manner of people. In this Biography I’ll try my best to finally put these experiences to paper, and to help you learn about this British boy.

3. Physical Appearance
Harry could be described as an average white man, if you ignore his main defining characteristic of course. That being his one remaining right blue eye, that story will be told later in this biography.
Harry’s hair has been the biggest form of expression he’s been brave enough to play with. He began with his natural hair colour of brown, then for about a month he added splashes of blonde to it, small highlights. Then after an unfortunate run in with his ex girlfriend and her teammates, he was forced to bleach some lime green paint of his hair and live with bright white hair for 2 weeks. After being mistaken for being an old man too many times, he finally returned back to his blonde hair where it's remained that way right until the present
He has many different outfits, but one jumper has remained very special to him. That being his red, white and blue striped jumper. He’s worn that poor thing to death, so if you spot him in it, that’s been his from the very beginning.

4. Strengths and Weaknesses
Harry’s been tried and tested many times, where often his strengths and weaknesses have had their chance to show their true colours. Below is a list of a few key attributes to Harry, ones that may not always be present, or may be stronger than others.
Strengths
Loyalty and Persistence
If one things for sure, once Harry sets his mind to something, he’ll never let it go. Sometimes this is a good thing, like with his persistence with those he deems as close friends. The incredibly amount of ups and downs that those three have experienced together, however with dedication and persistence, they've all come through together and closer than ever. However sometimes this can lead him down lost causes or dead ends. Or even roads that someone shouldn't be going down. He can get mixed in with the wrong crowd, and often keep banging his head at the same wall expecting someone to suddenly open up or change their character if he tries hard enough.
Lawful
Harry always tries to pride himself with remaining lawful, never fully leaning into one point of view or one ideal. Whether that be professional matters and avoiding jumping to conclusions, or offering his opinion on personal matters with his friends. He's often found himself feeling like the only sane person in his friend group, where others would throw themselves into the ring under the guise of 'Rather me then my friends', Harry will look for ways to get out situations entirely.
Caring
While a fairly basic and, often viewed as, a standard personalty trait, it’s still something that should be reiterated. As I’ll talk about in the weakness section, Harry often trusts first and doubts later, his first impression of people is always one of kindness, attempting to see good in people first before their true colours are revealed.
House Husband / Chef
One key thing Harry prides himself on is his cooking ability. He’s always been fond of cooking, but since joining La Casa where he was able to become a chef his ability has skyrocketed! It's a rare thing that Harry has been able to show off, but whenever he gets the chance, he relishes in it!
Weaknesses
Forgetful/Airheaded
One of Harry’s biggest faults currently is his forgetfulness. Through no fault of his own he often forgets people that he’s met, things he’s done or things he’s learnt. It's affected the trust that many people have in him, where they may turn to others to solve problems, viewing Harry as simply a second thought, or second option. He's been trying to take more notes, and seek assistance and overall better this fault he has.
Lacking Confidence/Fear of Abandonment
These two tie in together. The former stemming from the latter, where due to early life trauma, it's left Harry with a crippling lack of self confidence. This is evident in discussion of important topics, where the fear of his opinions instantly being shut down is ever present, and the knock on effect of his exclusion from said group. What if you make a fool out of myself? If I had none of these titles, would they even still speak to me? Am I being too pushy? These are all questions that spin through his mind each day. Soon he'll release how irrational they are, and how safe and surrounded he is by friends and loved ones.
Trusts first, doubts later
Several times Harry has found himself interacting with dangerous people and finding himself to trust first, then doubt later. It’s a nice gesture from Harry, one that tries to view people as kind and good hearted. But in a place like Karakura, this can often lead to bad outcomes, and has done for him many times before. A bad actor might soon learn this trait of Harry's and could use it to manipulate him.
Awful at sports
Due to his single eye, and poor hand eye coordination, playing in high octane physical sports is hell for Harry! He's not the fittest of lads, and any attempt at sport is always to end badly.

5. Relationships and Family
Family
Ms. Ishida
The first name of Harry’s mother has sadly been lost to time, making it extremely hard for Harry to find her, but he knows deep in his heart that if he is to see her, he’d recognise her instantly. Sadly due to Harry’s father’s relationship with his mother, she left when Harry was 8. He doesn’t remember much more about her, other than the chocolate cake she made on his 7th birthday was the best he’d ever eaten.
Mr Berwyn
A drunk, angry, deteriorating old man with too much going on in his head, Harry’s father was one for Harry to forget. One might pity him for learning why he is the way he is, yet hearing about what he did to the small clan of three, tearing them apart, you might just change your opinion.
Brooklyn Shima
Harry’s current adoptive mother. She’s real sweetheart, but sadly Harry doesn’t see her often. Whenever she’s home he enjoys her outstanding cooking skills.
April G. Sang-eo
Harry’s half-blood related sister. Ironically she was part of the reason why Harry moved to Karakura in the first place. Yet learning that she came here specifically to find him, it reignited his inner brotherly protective self and he treats her with as much love and care as a brother should.
Bonnie Shima
Harry’s adoptive sister. She was the first person Harry interacted with when he joined the Shima clan. Since then she’s been a close family friend, sharing a few feuds, fights and deep chats. He’s helped her through many issues in the past, and these two share a strong sibling bond.
Miyako “Maki” Shima
Too overprotective for her own good, the adopted older sister Miyaki. She’s gone down a certain road in life that’s given her some of the strongest maternal instincts ever. One might see that as a good thing, however Harry sees it as overbearing and controlling. She means well at the end of the day, sharing Harry’s one eye’d vision.
YeJoon Shima
His adopted little brother! A smile is always on Harry’s face when he sees this little man, despite him being a few years older than him. He’d always see YeJoon as a younger brother.
Rockwell Shima
A mysterious old man, an ex-professor too. Harry doesn’t speak to his adoptive uncle much, although when he does, it’s often a life lesson being forced into his brain.
Close Friends
The following are who Harry could trust with almost anything, intentional or not, this list is fairly small.
Tiffany Takagi (Fiance)
Harry's never felt a connection to anyone quite like Tiffany. These two have been through their ups and downs, and despite this varying interests and hobbies, they somehow mould together to form a near perfect couple. A chance encounter at a shrine where a confident volleyball player met a stuttering occult club member, blossomed in a longstanding relationship, one that'll hopefully soon be re-affirmed through lawful vows very soon.
Mei Miura
Mei has always been a foundation to Harry, a reliable and always present friend. Through thick and thin Mei has always been there for Harry in various aspects of Harry's life. Despite their friend groups sometimes differing and interests diverting, somehow someway, Harry and Mei still seem to still cross paths in strange ways. He's like a friend that you only see every 6 months, but when you do meet them, you click right back into place. Harry hopes he'll see Mei join him in the Teacher Faculty very soon.
Friends
Himari Hattori
Harry's had a rocky relationship with Himari, a few revelations and hiccups have impacted Harry's opinion of Himari. But through time and careful interactions, Harry has learnt to appreciate Himari's caring and outgoing nature. Himari is of course dating one of Harry's close friends, and if Mei trusts Himari, Harry does too
Suzume 'Ringo' Tsuji
A soft spot developed in Harry's heart for this grumpy teenager. He almost felt a calling, or a brotherly instinct to guide this girl through Karakura. He's fed her, taught her table manners, and always kept his single eye on her. Should she ever need him, Harry would almost drop anything for her.
Sumi Ishida
Up until recently, this friendly relationship had just been discovered to be more than that. Through some digging and family records, Sumi Ishida was found to be Harry’s half cousin, Harry’s mother’s maiden name being stark proof of that. These two have grown just a bit closer since then, a trip to see Sumi’s grandparents still in the works to this day.
Zankokuna Ai
Harry's reliable Assistant Lead! These two have shared a few chats now, Zankokuna has slowly become a closer friend. Harry's had to rely on this tall man for a few club related matters, and often finds him to be one of the more level headed and caring friends in his immediate friendship group.
Tatsumi Tojo
Tatsumi to Harry, seems like an older, wise and kind man, the walking cane adds to that image. Tatsumi seems like he’s 40 years older than he actually is, yet in the nicest way possible. He’s such a caring person, and someone who Harry holds dear to him and wishes to protect at all costs.
Erik Finster
One Harry treats almost like a younger nerdy brother. Harry would definitely invite Erik over to family dinners if Harry ever had such an occasion. Each interaction Harry has with Erik is a joy and a wholesome time, and it’s something he wishes he does more often.
Katsuhito Saiky-Akihito
This man is seeming more and more to be the Harry Shima from the future. Blonde haired, single eye, supernatural dealings, imperial family relations, hidden secrets. Is this man Harry's dad? Is he his long missing father?
Ben Yamatasha and Felicity Yamatasha
What started off as a constant feeling of being watched, regularly looking over his shoulder and seeing these two siblings always watching Harry from afar, turned into a very strange and often frantic friendship. Or is it even a friendship? Harry doesn't know with these two sometimes, it's hard to know what's going on inside their heads. But still, they're fun to hang out with, and Ben having the largest fascination with Harry's Occult Club interests and Ghostbuster cosplay.
Seren Fowler
Harry's welsh mate.Yet another curious case where Harry sees Seren as a friend, and gets occasional hints that Seren shares that friendship, but it's very often brought into question time and time again. Seren is blunt, straight to the point, harsh and rude, yet somehow there's bit of a brotherly bond just peaking over the horizon.
Yuma Mori-Deluca
Strangely enough, Harry once found himself stood next to the Deputy Mayor at a shift in 11/7. After a quick chat they soon become good friends! Harry sees her as a lovely older lady, like the relationship you’d have with one of your mother’s friends. A recurring character that Harry always enjoys chatting with.
C. Hachiyanagi
Harry’s one air headed friend. Hachi always seems to be on another planet each time they meet, regularly zoning out. Hachi is more often than not the third wheel to Harry and Tiffany when hanging out. It’s rare for Harry to be with Hachi one on one, but those few times definitely haven’t been unpleasant.
Maila Paek
Harry’s Ex-Girlfriend. This was Harry’s first attempt at a serious relationship, and of course it fell through. Many lessons were learnt and experiences had, and although they parted ways as friends, they don’t speak much at all.
Deceased/Out of Town
Sachiko Saiky
She started off as a friend of a friend, someone that started hanging out with the friend group. Then a chance suggestion and a lucky replacement landed Harry as her personal Saiky Attendant. These two grew incredibly close, confiding in eachother many dark secrets and closeted skeletons. Since she left town a small void has been left, but should she return, she'd be welcomed with open arms.
Niibu Rabenda
The closest Harry has had to a father figure in 10 years since moving away from Wales. Hearing himself being referred to as 'Son' almost broke him, and he'll never forget the bond he had with this Priest. Sadly Karakura had other plans for him, but there'll always be a place in Harry's heart for Niibu.
Charlotte O’Sullivan
The Grey Haired Maiden. He'll never forget her. He was a helpless watcher to her decline, as her soul actively ate her from the inside. He wished he spent more time with her, wished he showed her how he truly felt all those years ago? This is someone he'll likely never forget. Someone he almost became very close friends with, but they simply ran out of time before they could truly bond together.
Difficult Ones
Teresa Keating
Once a great friend, a close companion and a trustworthy peer, that was soon swallowed by her own greed and lust. She pushed away everyone she held dear in search of that one person. But time is a great healer, and it's been many months since these two have last properly spoken. Karakura has changed, and so has the people inside the town. Is Harry naive for believing there's still a chance? That the original Keating still lies behind those green eyes of hers? Time will tell.
6. Key Events (Post Immigration)
The following is a list of event’s post immigration to Karakura. My own memory from Grades 7-12 for Harry are fairly hazy, but I will try my best to recall some!
Truth or Dare in someone else’s house
One of Harry’s earliest memories was likely around Grade 9-10, before ownership of houses. Harry and his group of friends would frequently go to their own claimed home, one that they shared together. The most regular activity was playing a simple game of Truth or Dare around the living room table. Times were simple back then, where the only thing Harry feared was to kiss or confess to any of the other girls around the table.
Moving in with Vanessa
After struggling to afford rent for his own place, Harry went around asking to bunk with any Karakuran he could find. Not the smartest of strategies, but surprisingly ending successful for him. Vanessa was a fellow student, one that was struggling with rent too. So they reached an agreement to split the rent evenly, and thus began their friendship!
Joining the Shima Family (Formerly Mochizuki)
What was first a chance encounter and a short fling with a girl, eventually landed Harry a spot in the Mochizuki family. One headed by a woman named Faelon Mochizuki, the once Head Chef at the Highschool. This was a small but blossoming family (see what I did there?), one definitely caught Harry’s eye. What followed was a lot of drama and experiences. Fighting with his sister Bonnie, wholesome times with his brother YeJoon and his mother Fae always being there to put things back together again. This family definitely become a solid pillar in Harry’s personality, giving him family members that would always be there for him.
Losing his eye
A major definitely moment in Harry’s life, one that literally shaped his vision forever. There was once a man named James Pretzel. He was a strange man, blind in both eyes, definitely unstable mentally and more often than not would terrorise Harry’s sister, Bonnie. So naturally Harry would confront James, insulting one of James’ very beliefs. The believe in the Donut God. Stay with me here .. but James was part of a Donut Cult, where they worshipped donuts and praised the Donut God. Now after Harry insulted James’ precious god, James vowed that Harry would see things differently soon, Harry of course didn’t know what that meant …
Harry’s never decided to get a fake eye, he believed his eye has been the making of him, one that he shouldn’t attempt to hide or run away from. But embrace, and be thankful that the donut god something gave him mercy that day.
From KPIS to The Occult Club
The KPIS or Karakura Paranormal Investigation Society was Harry’s old passion project, formed around March 2024. This was peaked by Harry’s newfound passion for exploration of the island, learning about old Japanese folklore and occasionally meeting a few spirits! This club was very unofficial, currently just a group of friends. However he eventually wanted to apply for it to become an official school club! But one day, as he was walking around campus, there was an intercom message, a teacher advertising the new formation of the official “Occult Club”. Harry knew he had to get through that door.
After a meeting with the nerdy and stuttery club leader, Erik Finster, and after a few months waiting, on the 26th June 2024 Harry was accepted to the Occult Club! The Occult Club would become Harry’s primary focus for the foreseeable future and my OOCly biggest reason to keep playing. Through excursions to abandoned railway stations, interactions with demons and spirts, to the unforgettable October of ‘24, this club is and continues to be the most fun I have on the server, and has introduced Harry to many friends and pals.
Student Council
After a joking comment from a friend he decided to look into it. Harry’s always wanted to be part of a faction, but he’s not very sporty and many of the teams frankly scare him. So the student council seemed the perfect fit! He’s found it to be a great time, making a few new friends like Himari and some friendly enemies like the HS-President Emma Emerson. His time at the council formed a large part of Harry's character, always standing for what's right and helping those that needed it. Thought his, he became the supervisor for the Occult Club, which became the catalyst for his next step in the Club.
Occult Club Leader
To be one of the few Club Leaders of Karakura's most infamous clubs was a great honour, and also came with great responsibility. Harry experienced many things and learnt a whole lot more. He led the club against dangerous cults, and even experienced his own possession, where the original leader of the club returned and used his body as a vessel! Perhaps I'll do a writeup of that event someday. But like all great things, it had to come to an end. He sincerely enjoyed his time as club lead, and it'll forever form part of his character for many years to come. Some things never leave you.
High School Computer Science Teacher
And so we reach the latest chapter of Harry's journey. This chapter is still very much being written, and is still uncertain! Will Harry's skeletons re-emerge from his time at the Occult Club? Will any new and wacky characters emerge and leave their mark on this blondie? It's up for you all to decide!

One Harry treats almost like a younger nerdy brother. Harry would definitely invite Erik over to family dinners if Harry ever had such an occasion. Each interaction Harry has with Erik is a joy and a wholesome time, and it’s something he wishes he does more often.
Katsuhito Saiky-Akihito
This man is seeming more and more to be the Harry Shima from the future. Blonde haired, single eye, supernatural dealings, imperial family relations, hidden secrets. Is this man Harry's dad? Is he his long missing father?
Ben Yamatasha and Felicity Yamatasha
What started off as a constant feeling of being watched, regularly looking over his shoulder and seeing these two siblings always watching Harry from afar, turned into a very strange and often frantic friendship. Or is it even a friendship? Harry doesn't know with these two sometimes, it's hard to know what's going on inside their heads. But still, they're fun to hang out with, and Ben having the largest fascination with Harry's Occult Club interests and Ghostbuster cosplay.
Seren Fowler
Harry's welsh mate.Yet another curious case where Harry sees Seren as a friend, and gets occasional hints that Seren shares that friendship, but it's very often brought into question time and time again. Seren is blunt, straight to the point, harsh and rude, yet somehow there's bit of a brotherly bond just peaking over the horizon.
Yuma Mori-Deluca
Strangely enough, Harry once found himself stood next to the Deputy Mayor at a shift in 11/7. After a quick chat they soon become good friends! Harry sees her as a lovely older lady, like the relationship you’d have with one of your mother’s friends. A recurring character that Harry always enjoys chatting with.
C. Hachiyanagi
Harry’s one air headed friend. Hachi always seems to be on another planet each time they meet, regularly zoning out. Hachi is more often than not the third wheel to Harry and Tiffany when hanging out. It’s rare for Harry to be with Hachi one on one, but those few times definitely haven’t been unpleasant.
Maila Paek
Harry’s Ex-Girlfriend. This was Harry’s first attempt at a serious relationship, and of course it fell through. Many lessons were learnt and experiences had, and although they parted ways as friends, they don’t speak much at all.
Deceased/Out of Town
Sachiko Saiky
She started off as a friend of a friend, someone that started hanging out with the friend group. Then a chance suggestion and a lucky replacement landed Harry as her personal Saiky Attendant. These two grew incredibly close, confiding in eachother many dark secrets and closeted skeletons. Since she left town a small void has been left, but should she return, she'd be welcomed with open arms.
Niibu Rabenda
The closest Harry has had to a father figure in 10 years since moving away from Wales. Hearing himself being referred to as 'Son' almost broke him, and he'll never forget the bond he had with this Priest. Sadly Karakura had other plans for him, but there'll always be a place in Harry's heart for Niibu.
Charlotte O’Sullivan
The Grey Haired Maiden. He'll never forget her. He was a helpless watcher to her decline, as her soul actively ate her from the inside. He wished he spent more time with her, wished he showed her how he truly felt all those years ago? This is someone he'll likely never forget. Someone he almost became very close friends with, but they simply ran out of time before they could truly bond together.
Difficult Ones
Teresa Keating
Once a great friend, a close companion and a trustworthy peer, that was soon swallowed by her own greed and lust. She pushed away everyone she held dear in search of that one person. But time is a great healer, and it's been many months since these two have last properly spoken. Karakura has changed, and so has the people inside the town. Is Harry naive for believing there's still a chance? That the original Keating still lies behind those green eyes of hers? Time will tell.
6. Key Events (Post Immigration)
The following is a list of event’s post immigration to Karakura. My own memory from Grades 7-12 for Harry are fairly hazy, but I will try my best to recall some!
Truth or Dare in someone else’s house
One of Harry’s earliest memories was likely around Grade 9-10, before ownership of houses. Harry and his group of friends would frequently go to their own claimed home, one that they shared together. The most regular activity was playing a simple game of Truth or Dare around the living room table. Times were simple back then, where the only thing Harry feared was to kiss or confess to any of the other girls around the table.
Moving in with Vanessa
After struggling to afford rent for his own place, Harry went around asking to bunk with any Karakuran he could find. Not the smartest of strategies, but surprisingly ending successful for him. Vanessa was a fellow student, one that was struggling with rent too. So they reached an agreement to split the rent evenly, and thus began their friendship!
Joining the Shima Family (Formerly Mochizuki)
What was first a chance encounter and a short fling with a girl, eventually landed Harry a spot in the Mochizuki family. One headed by a woman named Faelon Mochizuki, the once Head Chef at the Highschool. This was a small but blossoming family (see what I did there?), one definitely caught Harry’s eye. What followed was a lot of drama and experiences. Fighting with his sister Bonnie, wholesome times with his brother YeJoon and his mother Fae always being there to put things back together again. This family definitely become a solid pillar in Harry’s personality, giving him family members that would always be there for him.
Losing his eye
A major definitely moment in Harry’s life, one that literally shaped his vision forever. There was once a man named James Pretzel. He was a strange man, blind in both eyes, definitely unstable mentally and more often than not would terrorise Harry’s sister, Bonnie. So naturally Harry would confront James, insulting one of James’ very beliefs. The believe in the Donut God. Stay with me here .. but James was part of a Donut Cult, where they worshipped donuts and praised the Donut God. Now after Harry insulted James’ precious god, James vowed that Harry would see things differently soon, Harry of course didn’t know what that meant …
After being whacked in the back of the head and dragged to an apartment, Harry was locked up in a small room, with nothing but dog food in a bowl and a small door, light barely seeping through the sides. After many hours of silence, finally someone entered, a masked man with a bat. Clearly that wasn’t a good sign, as for what followed was severe beatings and several broken bones, all while the masked man praised and shouted various donut facts and flavours. Nightmare fuel. After a day or two, being beaten and broken, Harry was finally dragged upstairs to be laid and tied down on a table. He was surrounded by three masked man, all chanting strange words. All of a sudden his body was smearing in jam, and icing, all over his bloodied wounds and broken bones. Sprinkles were thrown over him, bits of dough and batter. Harry’s head was overwhelmed with fear, the chanting, the beatings, the lack of food or water, the entire situation was something out of a horror movie.
Then .. came the spoon. I think you can assume what the spoon was used for in relation to his eye …
“An eye for an eye, the Donut God yearns for symmetry, for all things oval and round. This loyal subject will see, with his one eye he will see the roundness of the earth and the one true god that encompasses it”
Harry was later found dumped on the beach just outside the lighthouse, found by none other than his sister Bonnie.

Harry’s never decided to get a fake eye, he believed his eye has been the making of him, one that he shouldn’t attempt to hide or run away from. But embrace, and be thankful that the donut god something gave him mercy that day.
From KPIS to The Occult Club
The KPIS or Karakura Paranormal Investigation Society was Harry’s old passion project, formed around March 2024. This was peaked by Harry’s newfound passion for exploration of the island, learning about old Japanese folklore and occasionally meeting a few spirits! This club was very unofficial, currently just a group of friends. However he eventually wanted to apply for it to become an official school club! But one day, as he was walking around campus, there was an intercom message, a teacher advertising the new formation of the official “Occult Club”. Harry knew he had to get through that door.
After a meeting with the nerdy and stuttery club leader, Erik Finster, and after a few months waiting, on the 26th June 2024 Harry was accepted to the Occult Club! The Occult Club would become Harry’s primary focus for the foreseeable future and my OOCly biggest reason to keep playing. Through excursions to abandoned railway stations, interactions with demons and spirts, to the unforgettable October of ‘24, this club is and continues to be the most fun I have on the server, and has introduced Harry to many friends and pals.
Now while I personally don’t know the entire story of the curse, the beginning, the end and the reasoning, I at least want to include a section here as I believe it was such a cool and unique event for Harry to be part of. So here is a detailing of the beginning to end in simply Harry’s experience.
Suddenly, on October 18th there was an announcement from our club leader. Suddenly every spirit in Karakura had minor perms on our characters and we were all cursed! In the announcement were details of 4 tiers of the curse, with each tier getting progressively worse.
Tier 1: fatigue, aching joints, paleness of the skin and paranoia.
Tier 2: Nose bleeds, auditory hallucinations, limp fingers and mobility issues.
Tier 3: Decaying/missing teeth, unresponsive organs, brittle bones and rotting flesh.
The final tier, Tier 4, was of course death.
The symptoms progressed steadily, often a shrine cleansing could drop your character down a tier for just a day. Each member progressed together, soon figuring out something was wrong. The club only reached tier 2, with no one reaching tier 3 except for some unique circumstances. Harry was one of those exceptions. Through interacting with a strange hole in the wall in the club room, the flesh on his right hand began to rot away. Having your own flesh rotting around you whilst still being alive is quite the experience. He attempted to hide it from everyone, worried it might raise an alarm. So he hid it in rags and bandages, until one day, a benevolent spirit of the Mother Teresa healed his hand right in front of a watching crowd. A miracle if you will.
Luckily, the curse was lifted before anyone reached the third tier officially. This was the defining event that put the Occult Club on the minds of many people, skyrocketing its popularity. Harry’s more than proud to be a member to this day.

Student Council
After a joking comment from a friend he decided to look into it. Harry’s always wanted to be part of a faction, but he’s not very sporty and many of the teams frankly scare him. So the student council seemed the perfect fit! He’s found it to be a great time, making a few new friends like Himari and some friendly enemies like the HS-President Emma Emerson. His time at the council formed a large part of Harry's character, always standing for what's right and helping those that needed it. Thought his, he became the supervisor for the Occult Club, which became the catalyst for his next step in the Club.
Occult Club Leader
To be one of the few Club Leaders of Karakura's most infamous clubs was a great honour, and also came with great responsibility. Harry experienced many things and learnt a whole lot more. He led the club against dangerous cults, and even experienced his own possession, where the original leader of the club returned and used his body as a vessel! Perhaps I'll do a writeup of that event someday. But like all great things, it had to come to an end. He sincerely enjoyed his time as club lead, and it'll forever form part of his character for many years to come. Some things never leave you.
High School Computer Science Teacher
And so we reach the latest chapter of Harry's journey. This chapter is still very much being written, and is still uncertain! Will Harry's skeletons re-emerge from his time at the Occult Club? Will any new and wacky characters emerge and leave their mark on this blondie? It's up for you all to decide!
