Kanji Sawatari (沢渡漢字, Sawatari Kanji), often referred to as "Saru", is a character in Peach Girl: Sae's Story. He is the childhood friend/childhood "sweetheart" of Sae Kashiwagi who made a promise with her that they would get married when he comes back after he announced that he was moving to Malaysia.
Although Kanji still seems very much smitten with Sae, Sae is resistant because she sees him as almost a symbol of the frail girl she used to be and of those memories she wants to forget.
Etymology[]
- The name Kanji means "Chinese characters" (漢字).
- Kanji's surname Sawatari means "marsh" (沢, sa) and "transit, ford, ferry, cross, import, deliver, diameter, migrate" (渡, watari).
