Gorou Amamiya

"The idol named Ai, is way bolder than I expected. She's cunning and strong… and she shines as bright as the first star of the night. My doctor side and my fan side are in agreement. If you say doing that will make you happy, I will obey. After all… you're hopelessly an idol… and I'm hopelessly your captive."

Gorou Amamiya was the main character of the first chapter of the Oshi no Ko manga series. He was a medical doctor specializing in obstetrics and gynecology and the one responsible for delivering Ai Hoshino's baby. He was later killed by a stalker of Ai and, ironically, got reincarnated as her child, Aqua.

Personality
Gorou appeared to be a dedicated and compassionate obstetrician-gynecologist who cared deeply about his patients. He was also a fan of idols, but his interest seemed to be driven by a desire to fulfill the wishes of a patient, Sarina Tendouji, rather than any questionable motives. However, the mention of Goro carrying a "loli-con image" raises concerns about his interests. Despite this, Goro is portrayed as understanding and supportive of Ai's pregnancy, indicating that he is capable of empathy and showing  professional diligence , do not mix personal matters.

His willingness to confront a pursuer of Ai, even at the risk of his own life, demonstrates his courage and dedication to protecting those he cares about.

 * Gorou's surname Amamiya means "rain" (雨) (ame/ama) and "Shinto shrine" (宮) (miya).

Trivia

 * Both Gorou and Sarina are the only characters that were introduced without a surname, up until Chapter 75, where their surnames are both revealed.
 * He was a graduate of the Tokyo Medical and Dental University.
 * Similar to medical schools in the UK and other Commonwealth countries, Japanese medical schools are undergraduate entry programs that typically last for six years, and the following residency programs typically last for two years.
