[[folder:Sei]]
Sei is a nineteen-year-old boy and the main protagonist of the story.
At the age of 19, he cuts his left wrist and takes an overdose of medicinal drugs. He barely survives his suicide attempt and gets introduced into the "suicidal recidivist" list of the government, where he signs a document upon his expected death in the hospital. But instead of dying he gets abandoned on suicide island, where he starts a new life.
After spending some time on the island, he crafts a bow and arrows to hunt deer, befriends a girl named Maria (renamed as "Liv") and adopts a dog puppy named "Ikiru" which becomes his hunting dog.
----
* ArcherArchetype: The protagonist was in the archery club of his school and uses his knowledge to hunt deer on the island. [[spoiler:He has shot at least one person with it, driving him into moral self-doubt]].
* AttemptedRape: On the first night Sei is too afraid to speak up during an attempted gang-rape of a fellow islander until it is stopped by Ryou. This later drives him to save [[spoiler: Liv from a similar fate]].
* DrivenToSuicide: This seems to be a DeconstructedTrope with Sei. He tried to kill himself several times but finds a new outlook on life, and thinks that just living itself and being one with the nature is good enough for him.
