 Since Sunako is the only girl who is able to understand his true personality regardless of his good looks, he gradually develops an obvious attraction towards her, despite being dense towards his own feelings.In later chapters he seems to be aware of his feelings to at least a small degree.He has a strained relationship with his mother because of the trouble his good looks brought to their household (with many girls bombarding their house with letters and phone calls for him), and was found by the Landlady on the streets where she brought him to the household to live.
