Doppo Kannonzaka, a.k.a. DOPPO, is an office worker and the third member of Matenro.
Official Profile[1]
An ordinary salaryman who works for a medical equipment manufacturer. However, his work environment is brutal as he performs an enormous amount of work with harassment from his manager. As he’s constantly pressed for work, he’s always on overtime and working on the holidays. His extremely negative personality causes him to build up stress easily, so when he reaches his limit, his negative emotions burst out. He shares an apartment with Hifumi, his childhood friend since elementary school.[2]
Appearance
Doppo has a messy short-back rust-red wolf cut, that not only has cyan undersides, and crossed overgrown bangs, but a slight wavy texture to it. He has grey teal slightly droopy straight eyes with heavy dark circles.
Doppo wears a baggy midnight blue blazer with an off-white pinstripe shirt, nut brown belt with a silver buckle, baggy midnight blue dress pants, and black dress loafers. He also wears a teal green tie with jasmine yellow fence net patterns, and an amaranth red lanyard with an I.D card hooked to it, presumably showing his face and credentials[3], and a tie clip with chains holding onto a silver pendant of the Matenro Symbol.
Doppo’s Hypnosis Mic appears to be a a replica of his regular work phone, which is a dark blue and silver flip phone. Doppo’s speakers lay within a metallic briefcase, with speakers in one half and a DJ stand in the other. Around the briefcase there are monitors that display the Matenro logo with a dark blue background. Additionally, various pills and documents fly out of the briefcase and around the monitors.
Personality
Doppo is a meek, anxious, and pessimistic man. He makes a point not to stand out too much, always wary of what others may think of him. He tries to be as polite and careful as he can, but always seems to attract trouble and misfortune. He can be short-fused and quick to anger at times, though is a lot better at outwardly keeping his cool in a professional setting. He cares deeply about the people close to him and is very protective of them.
Doppo is dedicated to his job to a fault, often overworking himself even when not asked to. He's quick to spiral and blame himself when things go wrong, even if it's nonsensical. Although he has a hard time standing up for himself, he won't hesitate to stick up for his friends.
