Like Shirakawa in " DCII ~ Da Capo II ~ ", he has the ability to read people's hearts ( telepathy ) by the magic of the undying cherry tree, and although he is attentive to the surroundings, he thinks this act is cowardly and dirty. I am suffering from what seems to be the ideal idol from the people around me. This ability plays an important role in her Kotori route.
