What kind of person is Nanami Ryusui?

Although he often expresses his emotions directly, he is very dignified and has never been truly angry. He is a self-assured character who often speaks and acts with confidence, and has a strong egoistic personality, such as when he casually declares, "The world is mine." While he is loyal to his own desires, he is by no means self-righteous, as he does not think that it's enough for him alone. However, he is not particularly kind to others, and in fact, he is known for his overbearing attitude. He is known for his unique laugh, which includes finger snaps and a smug "haha!", as well as the double teeth he shows when he laughs. He possesses exceptional leadership qualities and is very friendly toward those who are more capable than him. Incidentally, Nanami herself seems to believe that Senku is a suitable leader.
