From the recorded profile

This is a translation of the source description. Dates, affiliations and plans refer to the source’s publication context, not a guarantee of current activity.

Momiji is a sweet-loving old man who lives on Itsukushima. He ate too many momiji manju, which made his face look like a maple leaf. “You don't have to try so hard” is his favorite saying, and he is a soothing old man. Everyone who meets him feels warm and comforted. He works at his own gentle pace every day to spread emotional healing. Nice to meet you!
