Background / History

Luo Zhen is a transmigrator living in a female-dominated world with an extreme female-to-male ratio. He lives beside Goto Hitori, his childhood friend and intended future spouse, while his adoptive parents work overseas. The Goto family treats him as one of their own. 1 5 41

Before gaining his Golden Finger, Luo Zhen was an unsuccessful light-novel author. Although he reused ideas from memories of his former world, his works repeatedly suffered poor sales and cancellation. He refused his editor Machida Sonoko's proposal to market him as a “handsome young writer,” believing public attention would be dangerous in his society. 1

A hug from Hitori awakens his Golden Finger: close contact with women enhances his physique and lets him copy or improve related skills. Initially focused on using the ability to secure a wealthy future for himself and Hitori, Luo Zhen later recognizes that its growing effect also makes women who trigger it increasingly drawn to him. 1 8

Luo Zhen becomes involved in the Starry Performance Hall scene to support Hitori's goal of joining a band. He introduces her to Hongxia and Yamada Ryo, attends the band's first unsuccessful performance, and encourages its members to improve through cooperation rather than individual ability alone. 3 4 17 18

Shi Yu's guidance and Luo Zhen's Focus Enhancement greatly improve his writing. By the time he submits a new manuscript to Machida Sonoko, she considers it likely to become a bestseller. Luo Zhen also resolves to use more marketable material from his memories to improve his income. 19 24

After revealing his past with Michiyo to Hitori, Luo Zhen and Hitori agree to explore a polygamous relationship under the Polygamy-Monandry System. He becomes more open about his desires while continuing to reassure Hitori of her place in his life. 29

Later, Luo Zhen's adoptive mother asks him to look after the transferring student Nijika temporarily. He picks her up after she gets lost, helps settle her belongings, and takes responsibility for assisting her adjustment to his school. 41 43 47 48

Appearance

Luo Zhen is a pink-haired boy whose appearance is described as clean and refreshing rather than conventionally striking. His appeal is primarily his memorable aura: the longer people observe him, the more attractive they find him. 1 2

• Pink hair and a clean, youthful face. 1 3
• Slender, fair hands noted for their softness and suitability for playing instruments. 4
• A mature, gentle demeanor despite being a high-school student. 7
• Exercises regularly and possesses a toned, muscular physique after repeated Physique Enhancement. 33 47
• Carries a distinctive sweet scent compared to orange soda. 10 42

Personality

Luo Zhen is patient, mild-tempered, and outwardly considerate. He remains polite even when Shi Yu deliberately provokes him, supports Hitori through her anxiety, and comforts Hongxia and Ryo after their band's failed debut. 9 11 17 18

He is also practical and ambitious. Luo Zhen wants financial security, actively seeks mentorship to improve his writing, and sees his Golden Finger as a tool for acquiring useful skills without years of conventional training. 1 2 5

Despite his gentle image, Luo Zhen becomes increasingly aware of—and willing to act on—his desires. He sets limits when he believes they are necessary, such as establishing boundaries with Hitori, but eventually accepts a polygamous future rather than continuing to suppress his feelings. 27 29

Abilities & Skills

Golden Finger

Luo Zhen's transmigrator ability activates through close contact with women, granting him relevant skills and strengthening his physique. 1

• Copies skills associated with the person he contacts, including guitar, bass, drumming, focus, and musical knowledge. 1 3 4 8 18
• Can improve previously acquired skills through repeated contact. 2 24
• More advanced skills require accumulated experience; a copied skill cannot easily exceed the source's level without further development. 24
• His contacts appear to become more strongly attracted to him after triggering the ability. 8
• The attraction effect exposes him to unwanted attention and makes public situations more dangerous. 1 5

Physique Enhancement

Physique Enhancement is the Golden Finger's constant secondary effect. Its effects become more pronounced as Luo Zhen gains skills and triggers additional contacts. 1 18

• Improves stamina, physical condition, and overall presence. 18 33 41
• Gives him unusually high endurance compared with ordinary men in his world. 41
• Intensifies his natural attractiveness and affects the reactions of women around him. 8 42
• Unlocks new functions over time, including entry into others' dreams. 20
• Does not replace technical combat training; Luo Zhen recognizes that strength and endurance alone are insufficient against someone with refined martial skill. 35 39

Focus Enhancement

A Level 3 concentration skill acquired from Michiyo. 8

• Allows Luo Zhen to devote his full attention to a task for extended periods. 8
• Greatly improves memorization, studying efficiency, and drafting speed. 8
• Helps him absorb Shi Yu's writing guidance independently. 10 24
• Leaves him largely unaware of external events and physical contact while active. 10

Dream Connection

A later function of Physique Enhancement that allows Luo Zhen to enter another person's dream. 20

• Lets him explore dream environments and observe imagery connected to the dream owner's thoughts. 20
• May provide inspiration or information useful for his writing. 20

Writing
