• Striking dyed yellow/blond hair. 47 57
• Usually carries himself casually, including leaning against podiums or sofas during negotiations. 47 48

Personality

Nagumo is ambitious, aggressive, and openly dissatisfied with Horikita Manabu's balanced administration of the Student Council. Rather than quietly inheriting the presidency after Horikita graduates, he wants to defeat Horikita while he is still in power and expose the limits of his system. 48

He is highly manipulative in recruitment and negotiation. Nagumo studies potential allies, exploits their insecurities, and offers Student Council access or institutional advantages as incentives. His attempt to recruit Ichinose Honami reveals his tendency to view capable people as possessions or tools for his own plans. 48 57 59

Although easily angered when cornered, Nagumo can recover quickly and return to calculating negotiations. After Uesugi Hara leverages a recording against him, he ultimately pays 4.5 million private points and later approaches Uesugi again with a more sincere offer of cooperation. 59 60 61

Story Role / Major Arcs

Conflict with Horikita Manabu

Nagumo is introduced as the Student Council Vice President whose relationship with President Horikita is openly strained. His opposition to Horikita becomes a key reason for Uesugi's temporary alliance with the president. 38

Attempt to Recruit Uesugi Hara

After observing Uesugi's proposal for a Student Council-backed second-hand trading platform, Nagumo approaches him privately. He offers Uesugi a place in the Student Council and, after Horikita's defeat, influence over special exams, resources, points, and privileges. Uesugi declines, refusing to become involved in their conflict. 47 48

Nagumo does not accept Uesugi's stated dislike of trouble at face value and remains interested in him as an unpredictable underclassman. 49

Ichinose Recruitment and Recording Incident

Nagumo approaches Ichinose after her Student Council application is rejected, presenting himself as someone who understands her and criticizing the class hierarchy maintained under Horikita's administration. He induces her to confess that she shoplifted a hair clip for her sister, then offers her a Council position. 57 58

Uesugi exposes the conversation through a recording device. When Nagumo admits he intended to use Ichinose and considers her a possession, Uesugi threatens both disclosure and damaging rumors. Nagumo pays Uesugi 4.5 million private points to prevent the recording from being leaked. 58 59 60

Later Cooperation

After the recording incident, Nagumo asks Uesugi to discuss cooperation again, this time claiming sincerity; Uesugi agrees to arrange a later meeting. 61 The later outline states that their cooperation is set to begin after Horikita Manabu graduates, and that Uesugi joins Nagumo's group during the forest exam. 64

Notable Quotes

“I don't want to ‘take over’; I want to ‘defeat.’” 48

“I prefer to call it ‘the determination to break the stalemate.’” 48

“Junior Uesugi, you really are interesting.” 59

Trivia

• Nagumo considers Horikita's pursuit of “absolute balance” to be suffocating and cowardly rather than admirable. 48
• His reputation for relationships with girls makes Uesugi's fabricated coercion rumor particularly dangerous to his public image. 59
• Despite Uesugi's rejection, Nagumo remains intrigued rather than discouraged by him. 49
