I need help on finding out what anime this character comes from. I believe his name is Santa, unless that's a nickname.
Please ignore the name along the left side, that has nothing to do with the character. Thanks!

Coincidentally, I had just started watching the anime of Kaikan Phrase yesterday, but I still wasn't sure it was him because he never wears anything except that stupid hooded shirt until around ep. 19 or so (which I finally got to today), then comes the outfit that's in this photo.
BTW, the fansubs I was watching only went up as far as episode 24 and Yuka's departure. [EDIT - Snip -C]
I have to say I was really really enjoying the story of all the obstacles the band encountered along the way before they got their record contract. But it began to feel less real to me when Aine came into the picture. It felt like it changed from a very real grown-up story (because I've known lots of bands, at various levels of success) to something that was being written specifically for an audience of teenage girls who would identify with her. Or, maybe, it felt like it became her story and all the great characters we came to know in the band in the earlier episodes were now becoming just side characters in her story. Plus, I'm having a hard time swallowing Sakuya's instant connection to her when he thus far has made a career of pushing people away from himself.
Anyway, if you guys are used to seeing Santa in b&w, you must've read the manga---can someone fill me in on where the story goes next? Thanks!
