Class 1-D
Kiyotaka Ayanokōji

Kiyotaka and Airi.
Airi and Kiyotaka are classmates, but they don't take notice of each other until Ken Sudō's case. They first met when he and Kikyō Kushida went to ask her for help, but she tried to run and broke her camera.[1] Later, he accompanied her to get it fixed and helped her by telling the clerk to send him the notice for the camera instead of her after observing the subtle suspicious actions of the flirtatious store clerk. She then looked at him while blushing, thanking and being greatly appreciative towards him for helping her.
She later asked him about his thoughts on the Sudō's case. When he told her that it's up to her and that the decision she makes shouldn't burden herself, she blushes at his kind words and gazes at him for a while but became flustered when Kikyō returned. Because of his words, she resolved herself to help save Ken and even went to the hearing, willingly presenting vulnerable information about herself to others.
When Manabu Horikita hinted that one side could be lying in the case, Airi got intimidated by him and started fretting. Kiyotaka noticed and quickly intervened by saying that he believed her, much to her relief. After the hearing, she apologized for not working up the courage to help out sooner, but he told her not to worry about it. She was greatly concerned for Kiyotaka when Manabu suddenly tried to attack him. [2]
A day later, she looked intently at Kiyotaka's desk, before he appeared behind her, thus surprising her. He told her to be at ease and stated that if she ever needed him, he'll be there for her. Airi was touched as she blushed and smiled as she tried to ask him something. Although he had to excuse himself, he did promised to hear her out after he was done.
When she was being stalked and assaulted by the store clerk, she quickly phoned Kiyotaka, hoping that he could save her. When he answered the phone, he got confused by her strange tone and tried calling her back. As she was about to be assaulted by the store clerk (who previously made advances on her), Airi reflected on Kiyotaka's promise to help her anytime and tried to reach for her phone once again, but to no avail as the clerk kicked it away. However, Kiyotaka came to her aid in the nick of time by arriving on the scene and catching the man in the act before threatening him with incriminating evidence. When the man tried to flee, he was skilfully ambushed by Honami who had accompanied Kiyotaka along with the police. After the man was taken away, Kiyotaka expressed relief that they had exchanged contact information which allowed him to find her. She apologized for dragging him into such a mess, but he comforted her by saying that the incident was not her fault and that she should enjoy her status of being an idol. Airi then decided to stop hiding her secret and apologizes to him and took off her glasses to embrace her new status.
Kiyotaka offered to give advice in the future for any burden that she may face, before helping her up. She then looked at him, surprise by his words and took his hand. Once on her feet, Airi faced him and blushed, remarking on how the look he gave her, was something that she has never seen him make before. He was confused by her words though she shrugged it off later with a smile. It is most likely at this point that Airi developed romantic feelings for Kiyotaka. It appears that Kiyotaka is initially unaware or indifferent to her romantic affections for him.[3]
During summer break, she accepted his invitation to come to the pool. When most of the students started splashing each other, she did the same to Kiyotaka but was seen to suddenly become nervous when he looked at her, fearing that he may had hated her, this caused her to apologise profusely and sink in the pool in embarrassment. [4]
On the school cruise, when she tried practicing to confess her feelings to Kiyotaka, she was seen blushing as she struggled with her words as a result. She was surprised when Kiyotaka unexpectedly appeared before her. After learning that he didn't hear what she said, she was relieved and instead asks Kiyotaka if he could help her in socializing with their class since she still had problems properly talking with them. He agreed which caused her to become elated, while also grabbing his hand out of gratitude.[5]
During the survival test, she was paired up with Kiyotaka and traveled through the forest with him. When they discovered a spot, Kiyotaka hid her and covered her mouth after she tried to move ahead when Kōhei Katsuragi appeared. While being held tightly by him, Airi was shown blushing a full red and breathing heavily. After the coast was clear, Kiyotaka released her. He apologized for his sudden actions, but she was seen still heavily blushing and squirming on the ground much to his confusion. Later when Suzune refused his offer, he instead asked Airi to come along with him, as they looked for branches to start a campfire. She was extremely happy when he invited her and excited at the prospect of spending some alone time with him.
Airi was also seen talking to Kiyotaka as he asked her if she wanted to stay in a pair with him, to which she confirmed and apologized for being a burden and dragging him down in the search. He soon asked her if she was afraid if people started talking to her about them, as she told him that she didn't really care about that, explaining that she was down on the school trip at first due to not having friends, but now was glad that she came. She then looked him in an admiring way, stating regrettably that she wanted to have her camera so that she could take a great picture of him, hinting that she wanted to keep a photograph of him to fawn over once the test was over.[6]
At the final day of the survival test, she was helping Kiyotaka in cleaning up the campsite, where she asked him how many points that he thought their class were going to get by the end of it. Kiyotaka then wondered about her question causing him to look at Yōsuke Hirata afterwards. Due to his real thoughts, it is unknown what he really thinks of her at the end of the anime, as he still views people as pawns to make him win.

In the light novels, he doesn't manipulate her unlike everyone else around him. It seems he genuinely cares for her, as it is shown that Airi is the only person that Kiyotaka down-right simply refuses to take advantage of, manipulate or use as a tool on his various grand schemes for the sake of their class, proving that he truly cares for her. Furthermore, in the light novel, she forms a close bond with Kiyotaka, where she is shown to be always by his side. At the same time, Kiyotaka and her mutually refer to each other on a first-name basis, showing how incredibly close they are to each other. Airi was also cheered on by Kiyotaka during the sports festival and was also treated by him after the festival, causing her to become happy and grateful.
During the panty thief incident, as everyone started accusing and mistrusting Kiyotaka for being the culprit with the other boys, Airi was the only one who defended him and even helped him look for firewoods when others refused. Kiyotaka also didn't approve of Haruki's questionable advancements towards her and protected her by not complying with his order of leaving the two of them together, by explaining her timid nature and fear of others.
When she was delivered a love letter by him, she mistook it for Kiyotaka's letter and got flustered about it not knowing how to process the overload of information. However, she was corrected by him when he said that it was from someone else who forced him to deliver it.
Her romantic feelings for him were further shown in the light novels as well, as she got very jealous when Maya Satō happily clung to his arm and remarked on how cool he was in a flirty tone. Later on at the cinema, she overcomes her shyness to clear up her doubts by directly asking him why Maya is acting so intimately with him. Kiyotaka replied that she's just his partner at the recently finished exam "Paper Shuffle". Airi immediately retorted to Kiyotaka that he could have let go of her hand if he really wanted to, while he reassured her that he won't be repeating such same mistake again.
Despite not knowing what his real thoughts are, he is shown to dislike making her upset or unhappy for some reason. It was also hinted in Volume 6 that the reason he pushed her to join his study group was that he knew her romantic feelings for him and wanted to cultivate her as a person by introducing her to his friends.[7]
In her short story though, Airi revealed that seeing Kiyotaka and Hiyori having lunch together, talking about novels and stuff in the cafeteria makes her heartbeat go wild — chased by a fervent fear that something romantic might bore out of the two. She expressed great relief after confirming with Kiyotaka that there was nothing between them. With pure rhetoric, Airi said that her heart might stop if they were actually on a real date.
Haruka immediately provoked her fears by telling her the possibility that the two might get closer soon. Realizing things would eventually fade if no actions were made, following Haruka's recommendation, Airi resolved to make herself more attractive and appealing to him.
In Volume 7, Airi asked Kiyotaka about his plans for Christmas and who he will spend his time with. Soon after, she met him in his room and gifted him a pair of blue gloves for Christmas.[8]
Whenever girls made moves on Kiyotaka, she is always in the background worrying if he would be taken before she had the chance to approach him. Kiyotaka doesn’t see her in a romantic manner but wants her to be better as a person. She showed her resolve to him by announcing that she will work harder so that she won’t be a burden to their class. He was happy at her progression and hoped it would continue but deep down whenever he sees her, he always had the vestigial feeling of worrying about what would happen to her when he reveals his secret relationship with Kei to her.
Unbeknownst to her and her friends, the people she surrounds herself with were all carefully picked by Kiyotaka so that when the event of his revelation happens, they would be there to guide her through her depression phase and acts as steadfast pillars of support.
In 2nd year volume 5, Kei finally revealed her relationship with Kiyotaka, which was as Kiyotaka had predicted and Airi got a very strong psychology shock, Airi cried in all lunchtime and then silently left to home. Later in the volume Kiyotaka nominated Airi as the student to be expelled because she had the lowest score of all students. Airi was expelled though she seems to not hold grudge against Kiyotaka and asked him to take care of Haruka.

Airi and Haruka.
In the light novels, Haruka is apart of students who fade into the background like Kiyotaka and called themselves the Ayanokōji Group. Because of her romantic feelings for Kiyotaka, Airi asked Haruka if she can join to which the latter accepted, making Airi a member. It is unknown what their relationship is like but seems to get along as both appear to keep their distance from strangers due to their attractiveness. They both share the same trait of nervousness of interacting with others and in Volume 7 they both were seen hanging out with the other members of their group as well as watching the Class 1-C students, while discussing Christmas and among other things.[8]
Haruka encourgaes Airi to be bolder with her affection and even once made Airi wear a revealing clothes.
In 2nd year volume 5, when Kei revealed her relationship with Kiyotaka, Airi had a psychology shock and Haruka comforted her. Haruka later asked Kiyotaka to walk with her to home so she can ask questions about Kiyotaka and Kei's relationship. Haruka said she was too surprised that Kei was Kiyotaka's girlfriend and she would have never guessed it would be her. Haruka was also suprised that Kiyotaka was the one who confessed to Kei. Haruka said Airi will hold hope and won't give up on Kiyotaka even if there is one percent chance. Kiyotaka wanted to ask both to be maids at cafe. Durning the exam at expelling students, Kiyotaka nominated Airi to be the one get expelled, the one who was the most angry was Haruka. Haruka even nominated herself to be expelled but Airi got expelled. Ever since then Haruka wanted to get revenge of Kiyotaka and Suzune. This seems like she cared a lot for Airi, but Kiyotaka and Kikyo said she is not worried about Airi but she only likes to find someone weaker than herself and help them and enjoy feeling of superiority. Kikyo said Haruka is just like her family. After Haruka learned Airi is doing her best with her idol carrier she helped everyone with festival.

Airi and Kikyō.
They don't have much of a relationship, as Airi appears not to trust Kikyō. They did not have much interaction until Episode 4 when Airi was pointed out by Suzune as the only person who did not volunteer to help Kikyō prove Sudō's innocence. Kikyō and Kiyotaka soon go to meet with her, but Airi refuses to get involved and runs off. While so, she ends up accidentally damaging her camera. In Episode 5, she invites Kikyō and Kiyotaka to help her repair it and apologizes for the trouble she's caused them though Kikyō did acknowledge her partial responsibility. They appeared to get along well, but Airi did not open up completely to Kikyō. When Kikyō leaves for a moment, Airi spoke more openly with Kiyotaka. Her reason was that his eyes weren't "scary" indicating her mistrust in Kikyō.[2]
They meet again for summer break while hanging out at the pool Kikyō remarked it was the first time Airi hung out with them asking if she liked pools, but she replies that she came because Kiyotaka invited her.
On the school cruise, while talking to Kiyotaka, Kikyō appears which causes Airi to run off. This meant that she is still wary of her, but the extent is unknown.

In the light novel, she doesn't have a good relationship with her as well, due to her wariness of her fake personality. As such, she doesn't associate with her and would avoid unnecessary contact with her.
Airi was expelled from School in 2nd year volume 5 and in a way it was Kikyo's fault if she hadn't voted for favor in expelling this would not have happened.
Kikyo did not regret her decision and said the reason Airi was expelled was because she was weaker than Kikyo. Then he showed that Airi is doing her best as an idol.

Airi mistakenly believing Haruki's letter is Kiyotaka's.
In the light novel, during the island test, he asked Kiyotaka to leave both him and Airi together, so that he could get close to her and tell her how feels about her. Kiyotaka, however, disapproved and refused his order, probably due to Airi's own shyness and timid nature of being afraid of uncomfortable situations, much to Haruki's dismay.
He was seen confessed his feelings to Airi during the end of summer vacation, by writing a love letter and made Kiyotaka give it to her for him. She mistakenly thought it was from Kiyotaka, as she got flustered about it not knowing what to do, in which he corrected her afterwards saying that it was from someone else. He then convinces her to read it alone as his responsibility was only conveying Haruki's feelings crammed into the letter to her.
The day after, Airi and Kiyotaka meet up to talk about Haruki's confession. She didn't know how to respond to the letter, so Kiyotaka tells her to just say what she feels. She then tells Kiyotaka that she was going to decline Haruki's confession as she didn't feel the same way about him. When Kiyotaka was about to leave, she stops him and asks if he could stay with her as she doesn't want to be alone. Haruki comes later and he tells her about his feelings. His awkward confession on the reason why he likes her ends with her nervously turning him down. He thanks her for being honest with him, while Airi says sorry and leaves.
Kiyotaka wonders why Haruki isn't being depressed about it and Haruki reveals that she wasn't really his type. Haruki then realizes that he wasn't that serious about her and apologized for making her worry. He understood Airi didn't want to hurt him. He later says that he is going to get over from his feelings for Airi while looking on forward and hopes to find someone else, as Kiyotaka praises him for his maturity.[9]

Honami Ichinose
There hasn't been much interaction shown between them. They first met in Episode 6 where Honami and Kiyotaka came to Airi's aid when she was attacked by a crazed stalker. Honami was the one who gathered security and eventually apprehended the suspect, saving her from the dreadful situation. During summer break, they hung out at the pool. Honami would tease though in a playful manner of a nervous Airi for her close relationship, and her obvious romantic feelings for Kiyotaka, much to Airi's embarrassment. She then adamantly rejects such a notion and tried to cover it up with an excuse. Their limited interactions thus far shows they are on good terms despite being in different classes.[3]
