Gen Suzuno (涼野 弦, Suzuno Gen) is the owner of the music club Lucky Star, the separated husband of Tsuru Suzuno and the father of Ito Suzuno and Yuu Suzuno who used to be a guitarist in the band Crossroad where he had planned to have a band with his family, but he broke his arm in an accident and he was told that he could not play guitar anymore.
History[]
In Gen's young days, he didn't get along with any band he joined as he always fought with his band members, but everything changed when he met Takeyuki Mihama where they made good songs and they easily got along. They started a band called Lucky Star, they were surprised how many fans came. But on their way to stardom, they disbanded. He continued with the music business, but Takeyuki called quits. After some time, he begged Takeyuki to bring the band back again. Not keeping his eyes on the road, a truck came their way and they crashed. Takeyuki lost his life, but Gen only broke his arm. He stopped playing even after he recovered as a way to atone for what he did.
