Chika Kudo

Chika is a tall young man with short straight blond hair that has bangs hanging over his face and narrow brown eyes. Personality: Chika has a very childish personality. He is straight forward with his words but doesn't clearly know how to express himself or understand others. He likes to help out his friends, but becomes shy when they thank him. He is a devoted and caring friend. Background: Prior to the start of the series, Chika was neglected by his father and was caused to live with his grandfather, Gen Kudo, instead. During these days, Chika would always get into fights and is infamous because of this. Despite this, Tetsuki Takaoka was close to him and would often come to Gen's house to check up on Chika. Through his grandfather's attempts, and also Tetsuki's patient, brotherly efforts, Kudo starts to become mellow. Unfortunately, the bad crowd he was hanging out with disliked this and set Chika up by ransacking his grandfather's house where he crafts kotos. Chika is blamed for this by the neighbors and the police. Not long after this incident, Gen passed away due to a heart condition. Later, it is revealed that Chika now lives with his paternal aunt, Isaki Kudo, in a luxurious high-rise apartment, after Gen's passing.
