"Blooming within you."

-Shiota Nagisa is noticeably more reserved and shyer than other students in his class, thinking much more than actually talking and referring to himself as "invisible" because of this. He seems to be commonly nervous about what he says in important situations, being hesitant and harboring a slight stutter, which is possibly due to his mother telling him he "isn't good enough". However, Nagisa is not easily fazed by things that would unnerve the average person as shown in his interactions with Karma Akabane and the prospect of using a real knife. Despite his calm and empathetic demeanor, Nagisa possessed deep insecurity about his talents and how he was perceived by the people around him. Nagisa is the son of Hiromi Shiota and her presumable ex-husband. His mother had hoped for a daughter so she could experience all the things she had missed as a child through her but got a son instead. As a result, she dictated his life from forcing him to keep his hair long, to being forced to cross-dress and verbally abused him whenever he spoke against her. Her personality also caused her husband to leave her and Nagisa.
