Junta Momonari. The Man, the myth, the legend. Is the anomaly, a "Mega-Playboy" so to speak, of the story. However, he hardly seems like he would be. He is the ultimate loser: he's never been on a date, in large part because of his condition: he pukes whenever he sees anything resembling a naked female body, whether that's a swimsuit, leotard, or other types of revealing clothing.
The only girl he can talk to normally is his childhood and best friend Ami Kurimoto. However, his fate changes dramatically when he meets the strange girl from the future, Karin Aoi. Will he be able to stay himself, or will his body and mind be taken over by the DNA of the "Mega-Playboy"? His powers seem to be activated when a girl is in emotional pain (such as Tamako in tears), or physical danger, (like when Ami was struck by the snake-tongued goon) which causes him emotional turmoil.
Appearance[]
Junta appears to have black spiky hair with red shining at the edge of his spikes and has fringes in each side of his hair and brown eyes. He also has two moles in each sides at the bottom of his eyes.
When he transforms into a Mega-Playboy, his hair became a shades of red and his body became muscular if either he was flirted by girls or trying to protect them from getting harm.
Junta was commonly seen wearing a standard Fukoma winter school uniform consists of a black school jacket which is open to reveal a loose gold T-shirt, black school pants and black school shoes. In his Mega-Playboy state however in the near end of episode 2, his gold T-shirt is shown to be a V-neck, revealing his clavicles.
Junta also wears casual clothes throughout the anime and the OVA.
His primary outfit is a white short sleeved baseball jacket with black linings, his long sleeve undershirt appear in different colors (navy blue in the pilot episode, orange in episode 3 and capri blue in the OVA), olive green cargo shorts, and black high-top sneakers and white socks. In the pilot episode, Junta's baseball jacket is light blue and his cargo shorts being pale blue making his entire outfit in a shades of blue.
His second and most well known outfit where he was forced to date with Tomoko for the necklace which was meant to give it to Ami as a gift and in his fight with Ryuuji to rescue Karin is a periwinkle short sleeved mini shirt with a cream colored long sleeve loose shirt underneath, dark teal jean shorts with dark khaki trousers underneath and retaining his black high-top sneakers from his primary outfit.
His sleepwear has him wearing a dark blue loose T-shirt and pale blue shorts.
In one episode where he was slapped by Kotomi to officially breaking up with him, he wears a red sweater with a black long sleeved loose buttoned-up shirt, white pants and retaining his black high-top sneakers.
Personality[]
Junta's normal personality is described as a happy, nice and a meek person. His meek personality led him to become an ultimate loser and becoming allergic to girls (most likely Tomoko) wearing revealing clothing or their nakedness, leading him to vomit. Although, he shares a similar problem to Kotomi in her case, her shyness of not bringing up her love towards boys or getting farted when nervous. Junta can be a coward at times if he can't fight men who were stronger than him especially Ryuji when he gained his powers after he got accidentally shot by Karin using the DCM bullet. Junta also tried to speak normally to others including Tomoko about his real decisions in life, admitting that he loves someone else rather than being manipulated or resisting over someone in which Kotomi tries to get close to him while he was in a Mega-Playboy state and was only just testing her to show her real self in which she has been hiding it for a long time because she was afraid to show her love towards boys and convincing her that there's no need to hide or being ashamed to herself because she was perfect the way she is and Karin had seen this entire scene.
In the OVA version upon seeing his great-granddaughter, Lulara Kawasaki after he broke free from Mori's control, he is able to convince her within their DNA due to their blood connection while he defends Karin from getting another shot by her, leading her to drop her gun and reunite with her great-grandfather (oji-san in Japanese) by hugging her.
In his Mega-Playboy state, this completely loses his meek personality and appearing, serious, mature, and was very seductive and flirty which is why Tomoko, Karin and Kotomi are seemingly befell from his romantic attraction, making him turn into a serial romanticist due to his ability to swoon or to agitate them at will. This actions also led Tomoko's boyfriend Ryuji Sugashita to become his greatest rival who is driven by revenge even after he gained his powers due to being accidentally shot by Karin using the DCM bullet while attempting to stop them from kissing each other by punching Junta in the face. Aside his romantic advances and his flirtiness to the girls, he has powers which extends his protection to the girl he likes when Ami, Tomoko and later Karin from getting hurt or being sexual assaulted. He demonstrates this ability by utilizing his teleportation to dodge the enemies's attack as well as superhuman strength where he can easily take his opponent down in either punches and kicks. He has higher reflexes which he quickly grabs Tomoko to safety by quickly punched the thug into the face and also has enhanced durability when he was hit by his enemies. In the OVA version after Lulara shot him with a DCM bullet given to her by Mori, he was under his control using a remote control device and he never hesitate using his powers in order to kill Karin or Ami while being sided with Lulara and Ryuuji until he is able to break free from his control due to his DNA was not stabilized and the remote control Mori uses was destroyed by the lightning that engulfs him.
