Dennis Jansen

Dennis is one of the many protagonists of True Aspirations. He is mainly associated with the color tangerine. He is a student in 8th grade along with Nagisa, Rudy, Melanie, Serena, Ray, and Min-jun.

Background
He was born in the Netherlands, and due to a family emergency, traveled to Springfield, Missouri for a short period of time. During this time, he became friends with Ruby, and formed a bond with her. A year later, he and his family ended up moving back to Missouri for good, and thus, he decided to join the Aspiration Club.

Personality
Being a very cheerful and optimistic person, Dennis always tries to cheer up the other members or lighten up the mood with jokes. He's often labeled as 'annoying,' since he likes to bring up the same subjects over and over. He might not be able to read the mood correctly at times, but he’s very confident in his looks, and often brags about himself, but tries not to go too far. He’s obsessed with social media and is always seen taking selfies and photos of things, despite not being good at it. Strangely, he's very attached to his grandmother. His lack of sense of self is hidden behind his exterior, unaware of the real world.

Hobbies
He enjoys watching TV and surfing the internet. He brings his camera with him wherever he goes, often taking selfies of himself, even during class. He also loves writing blog posts and editing videos.
