Kiyotaka Ayanokōji/Relationships

Though Kiyotaka has trouble making friends, he has managed to gain some friendships with some of his fellow classmates. These are the known relationships of Kiyotaka Ayanokōji who have truly interacted with him thus far.

Suzune Horikita
Suzune is the first person that Kiyotaka interacts with when entering the school. He first caught notice of her when they were on the bus after the witnessed Kikyō Kushida trying to persuade Rokusuke Kōenji to move from his seat to no avail.

Kikyō Kushida
She was one of the first people in his class to initially interact with and befriend him. His first impression of Kikyō is of her being a bubbly sweet girl who will be extremely popular in the class. He gets along very well with having no problem in playing part in her attempts to befriend Suzune.

He was surprised to see her violent personality wondering if that's who she really was. Kikyō threatened him with the false accusement of sexual harassment if he told their class about her secret, which he promised to not expose as she went back to her bubbly self.

Honami Ichinose
Kiyotaka first met Honami when she walking down the hall after Kikyō Kushida stated her goal of being friends with everyone even those from other classes. He soon watches her stop Ken Sudō from getting into a fight with some of her classmates of Class B.

In episode 4, she begs him for aid by asking him to pretend to be her boyfriend after one of her friends gave her a love letter. He refuses while she begs as she is unsure of how to answer the confession but her friend shows up. When asked what they were, Honami tried to nervously "confirm" they were a couple but Ayanokōji answered first by stating he and Honami were simply friends and leaves telling her to talk it out with that person due to the courage she mustered up. This shows he has no problems associating with her and is willing to give her advice. After Honami turned down Chihiro, she thanked Kiyotaka for helping her and apologized for dragging him into her mess but he was fine with it as Honami stated she owed him for his help. She acted on her word and helped him in proving the innocence of Ken Sudō as he was confused by her act as she slyly stated she owed him while winking. This gained attention from Kikyō and the other students who wondered exactly what Honami owed Kiyotaka.
