Richard (Rex) Michaels  is a Human living in Karakura Town. He is a student at Karakura High School, where he attends classes with his best friend Ryohei Takeshi, and Sachi Hayashibara. He is also the son of Anthony Michaels and Linda Michaels.    

Appearance
Is a muscular 5'9" African American male with orange eyes and a buzz cut that has a small part on the right side. He also has a mole on the right side of his right eye. He wears the standard uniform at school, with it being unbuttoned, and the sleeves rolled up. He carries a black laptop bag across his shoulder. Outside of school, he wears a black tanktop with an orange jacket, and black pants with orange stripes going across his knees,along with orange sneakers with black stripes on them. He also wears a coal black ring with an orange gem on his right middle finger, which his grandfather gave him.

Personality
Rex puts on an exterior of being a tough guy,but is really a good guy at heart, and tries to help out ..in his own sort of way, though sometimes it comes off as either useless or agressive. He is a "live and let live" kind of guy, and tries to be patient,but fials most of the time. He's somewhat outgoing and enjoys meeting new people. He hates it when he finds himself being left out because he can't help, and usually masks this with false arrogance (which he realizes is hypocritical). When he isn't fighting, he's usually hanging out with Ryohei, and Matsuda at the gym, eating at a restaurant, walking around town, at the park, or at the library. He is an "A" student, and really cares about his scholastics, as he plans to be a world renowned doctor. If he gets anything less than a "B", he will confront the teacher that graded it.

Rex really is a "live, and let live" kind of person ,but if he sees anything wrong, he'll step in and take action without thinking of a plan. This usually causes him to get into a lot of fights with the thugs, and delinquents, as shown when he had stopped Kohaku from harming Matsuda. Though he helps others out, his rough exterior (glare) usually scares most people away, so he doesn't really talk to a lot of people except for a few friends.

Rex is shown to like all types of food, and can eat anything without worrying about his weight. He really enjoys his health, as he's shown enjoying working out at the local gym. He also enjoys Don Kanonji'sshow,  Ghost Bust (ぶら霊, Bura Tama.) , but won't admit it. He also like giving people nicknames, because he enjoys their reaction as shown when he calls Ryohei  "Scar face".'''

He detest perverts and all pervy things, because he doesn't know how to deal with it, and usually gets flustered. He  also dislikes arrogant people. He gets disappointed when he wants to help out, but is ignored, refused, or cast off as unwanted and useless. He also dislikes styrofoam, liars, perverts, and the name "Sparky", a name Ryohei calls him, with a passion.

The Arrival of the New Transfer Student arc
On an airplane, Rex is smacked by his father who tells him to that they're in Japan, and to wake up and get off the plane. Rex then looks around to see that he was the last passenger on. As he gets off with his bags, he find his father walking ahead of him into the airport. Inside, They find their chauffer, who welcomes them with a smile, before driving them to their new house, and making small talk with Anthony.

An hour later, Rex awoke to a flash, only to see his father conspicuously stuffing a camera in his pocket. When confronted his father about it, Anthony lied as he got out of the car ,before telling him that Rex's mom needed to see .because she's been texting nonstop; provng that he took a picture of Rex sleeping.

When Rex sees his new house,and his father walking up the driveway, he remarks with a simple "wow". As the chauffer hands Rex his bags, he warns him to be careful, and that a lot of strange things have been happening lately. When Rex inquires about this, tthe driver tells him how buildings would crash out of the blue, how citizens would just go missing, and even sightings of ghosts. Before he could say anything else, is father invites him to check out the new house, to which Rex does.

As he walks into the house, he remarks how it even has "that new house smell". He was about to say more before he tripped over the floor that was a little higher than the walk in area, to which his father laughs. When Rex remarks how he was going to get some rest, his father tells him no, and that it's the time difference. He goes on to explain how in Delaware it's 4am while in Karakura Town, it's 4pm. His father then invites him to check out the pool in the back with him, to which Rex says he'd rather walk around town.

While walking around, Rex was near Karakura Community Park when he bumped into Kohaku, and his two friends. When Kohaku told rex to watch where he was going, Rex said no. This lead to a short fight between Rex and Kohaku, in which Kohaku was knocked out. When Kohaku's two friends saw this they grabbed a steel pipe and a bat and attacked Rex. Rex was about to get hit with the pipe when Ryohei stepped in, and beat up the two attackers.

After Ryohei helps him up, he invites Rex to come to the Taekwondo classes he holds at Karakura High School. Rex doesn't give an answer ,but instead thanks him and parts ways. When he returns home ,he finds Anthony sleeping in the pool, to which he becomes frustrated. Later on that night when Rex is sleeping on the couch, his father wakes him up and tells him that he starts classes at Karakura High School the following week.
