History

High School Boys and Chit-Chat
In Chapter 74, Takahiro consults with his friend about what makes a girl cute since he doesn't understand them. Takahiro's friend, who is equally clueless as him, gives an example how during the school festival, a girl breaks down crying because she is hungry, causing Takahiro to believe it's cute. Before long, the two begin to make wild assumptions about girls and eventually, they come to the conclusion that the cutest girl would be a student council president that everyone makes fun of. Unbeknownst to them, Ringo-chan has overheard their entire conversation and silently remarks that there's no one like that, unaware that she fits the description.

Appearance
Takahiro is of an average height and build. He has black eyes and dark violet hair worn in a style similar to Tadakuni's. His eyes are generally depicted with lines under them, giving him a sleepy/tired look.

He is usually seen wearing the all-black West High uniform.

Personality
Takahiro is generally mild-mannered and affable. It is stated that he doesn't understand girls at all, and he often has long conversations with his friend along these lines. He often finds himself in unfortunate situations due to others, but is nice enough to even lend his bicycle to a complete stranger.
