Much like Yusaku Godai, the protagonist here is a "ronin". Here's Furinkan's note regarding the term:

""Ronin: Someone who didn't get into college straight out of high school and is spending a year (or more) studying privately to retake the entrance exams. This term originally referred to masterless samurai.""

He also basically looks like Godai did when MI was first starting. We can see a KFC box here.
