Claude K. Winchester, also known as K, is Shindou Shuichi's former manager who is now the current manager for Bad Luck. K is aggressive in promoting the band--he even carries around a big gun and hand grenades. His concern is first and foremost Bad Luck, but in his shaping of the band's career, he ends up involving himself in Eiri Yuki and Shuichi's relationship. He is American, and in the original Japanese version, they played on the stereotype that Americans always have guns and will pull them out any time, any place.
Personality[]
K is fun-loving guy who has good intentions, but he has a bad habit of turning his gun on anyone and/or anywhere to support his intentions.
