Notes:
I'm taking this character mostly from the anime, but with some details from the manga that I found fun and that don't conflict too badly with anime canon stuff -- mostly to do with his backstory!
He's also 18 now because his school and job situation are ludicrous. Everyone's ages in this series are weird.

appearance
Saburo Mutsumi looks like a pretty normal teenager, albeit on the pretty-boy side of things. In his world, having grey hair isn't too unusual (others have blue and pink and so on, after all!), but his eyes are different than most people, having an almost swirling mix of blue shades that doesn't seem quite natural. Could be contacts or just unusually nice eyes, though.
He has tanned skin and a bit of an unusual fashion sense; he's a casual fashionista, liking layers, jackets, hats, and just generally clothing with odd patterns and labels.

background
Mutsumi was actually orphaned at a pretty young age; back then, he was known as Hojo Mutsumi, and his (somewhat distant) parents had died in a completely unrelated accident during an attempted N326an invasion of Earth. With humans none the wiser, the invasion had failed, and a few months after Mutsumi had been orphaned, the N326ans had been about to pull back and give up on the planet...
When Mutsumi, nine years old at the time, had approached them. At that point he could already see things as they truly were, and could tell that the human-appearing people were aliens; he asked them to take him with them, calmly explaining that he didn't have parents anyway so it wouldn't be a problem.
One of the aliens, named 865, actually agreed, not only taking Mutsumi with him but proceeding to adopt the boy as his son. Hojo Mutsumi became simply 623. He spent years on the planet N326, and when his new people learned that the Keronians had their sights set on "Pekopon," 623 became curious to see these invasion efforts for himself.
He returned to Earth, taking the name Saburo Mutsumi -- "Saburo" being goroawase number-pun wordplay for 326, just as 623 could itself be pronounced "Mutsumi" -- and settled into a bit of a "normal" life before the Keronian platoon arrived. Having been extensively educated on N326, school couldn't hold his interest, but he did become a radio DJ (where he used the name 623 as an alias to amuse himself). If he was ever asked, his father's name was Saburo Haruko, a widower who worked ouside the country -- all true, in a way, but far from the full story, of course.
The moment he caught his first glimpse of one of the Keronian invaders, of course, he was all in, determined to make this strange, interestingly unpleasant alien his best friend. It worked; Sergeant Major Kururu gifted him his Reality Pen, and the two just clicked. Thanks to this new connection, he became friends with the rest of the platoon and their human compatriots, though he still remained a bit distant. Everything the platoon pulled and got themselves into was a blast, though, and Mutsumi would find himself getting more involved and more invested all the time.
Currently, Mutsumi is continuing to have a blast checking in on what crazy things the platoon is up to, while also periodically checking in on alternate universe versions of himself just for kicks -- kind of his weird form of people-watching. He's also still DJing as 623, this time from basically a spaceship radio station in the upper atmosphere that Kururu made for him, claiming to have "returned to his home planet Venus." He graduated a while ago so it's not like he has to worry about attending class even sometimes anymore, anyway.
