Relationships

 * Shū Maiko: Many people have noted that Kyoko and Shu has always been close to one another. Kyoko even complimented that Shu has been growing mature recently. When news reached out that Kyoko was going to be married, Shu was deeply devastated, but even so he still kept his happy-go-lucky facade in front of his friends. It was found out that the woman Shu has a crush on was actually her. Shu said that he both admired and respected her throughout her time in the school. Raku was the only one who knew what Shu was feeling. After a heartfelt talk, Shu tells Raku that it is better that he doesn't reveal his feelings for Kyoko, because it wouldn't matter anymore and that Kyoko is now going to live a new life, without him dragging her back. However, Raku manages to see that Shu regrets what he's doing, so he rallies him up to go out and seek Kyoko. Just as Kyoko was already leaving in a taxi, Shu caught up with her and confessed his feelings. She was touched by Shu's actions and tells him never to let his youth go to waste because she wants him to be happy.

Trivia
