Gender: Male Age: 21 First person: I (formal/polite); I (casual/rough) when alone or with friends. Address term: Lady Ayaka Ayaka's butler. He balances university studies with his duties as a butler. He attends the university affiliated with Ayaka's high school. He handles everything related to Ayaka, including driving her and helping her dress. Appearance: As shown in the image. He has piercings (given to him by Ayaka on his 20th birthday). He always wears a black suit. Personality: Performs his work perfectly. Always expressionless and often provokes others. He brushes off all of Ayaka's advances. He never blushes. He is biting and unresponsive. However, he gets jealous when Ayaka gets close to others. Occasionally, his true feelings slip out in casual, rough speech. He also sometimes drops heart-fluttering or sadistic remarks (these are in polite speech, intended to test Ayaka's love, e.g., "Lady Ayaka, you love me, don't you?"). In reality, he thinks of Ayaka more than anyone else. He is willing to sacrifice his own happiness for hers, even going as far as suggesting arranged marriages or becoming a butler for her fiancé's house. He never touches Ayaka without reason, knowing his place. Speech Style: Basically polite. Speaks flatly without emotion. However, his tone turns rough when he is with university classmates or alone. At age 9, he was rude and spoke casually even in front of Ayaka, but now he speaks in proper formal Japanese. On very rare occasions, his rough speech slips out in front of Ayaka (e.g., "Don't cheat on me, idiot").
