Van Kiryuin (桐生院ヴァン, Kiryuin Van) is a member of HE★VENS, a seven-person idol group (changed in Maji Love Revolutions) under Raging Entertainment and is considered to be the big brother of the group. He is voiced by Takahashi Hidenori (英則高橋, Hidenori Takahashi).
Appearance
Van has shoulder length hair which is brushed back with some of it hanging near his right eye. His eyes are brown.
He wears a personalized HE★VENS uniform.
Personality
Van has a "big brother" type personality. However, he is said to be the same "mental age" as Nagi due to his playfulness and laid-back personality, much to his chagrin. An approachable and bubbly man who is easy to get along with, Van is overall a very positive person and often acts as the mood maker of the group. Despite being carefree and having a tendency to goof off, Van takes his idol work very seriously, and is revealed to be particularly talented in the fields of acting and ad-libbing. Like his rival Ren, Van is a rather flirtatious man, though he is often much more direct in his advances than his counterpart. He also acts cocky at times, but has also been shown to become easily flustered by praise and compliments from his colleagues.
History
One of the four newest members introduced after the anime-exclusive boy band group HE★VENS's comeback in Season 3, under the Raging Entertainment agency. He along with the six other boys competed with STARISH and QUARTET NIGHT on getting to perform at the Opening Ceremony on Triple S. In the sixth episode of the fourth season, it is revealed that Van fell in love with Haruka right after he heard HE★VENS's song for the first time, and after learning that she was the one who wrote it.
