Kashima Ryuuichi Husbando

He is of average height with dark hair and large eyes. Considered to be one of the most attractive boys in the class (the other being Hayato Kamitani), his female classmates have complimented him on his "healing vibes" and being gentle when handling his brother.[1] He has a soft, feminine appearance, which makes him easily believable as a girl when wearing a wig. Ryuuichi is a kind and easygoing person. He easily befriends the children and is loved by all of them. When Taka is crying, he is usually seen comforting the sobbing child and is regularly sought out by the children when upset. He is also somewhat absent-minded, appearing to be completely oblivious to his popularity, particularly to the fact that Maria Inomata and Ushimaru Yuki have feelings for him. He has gone as far as to think girls weren't interested in him at all. On the contrary, most girls don't pursue him romantically only because they feel they can't compete with Kotaro for Ryuuichi's affections. This oblivious aspect of his nature also makes it a common occurrence for quiet individuals such as Yayoi and Saikawa to approach him from behind and surprise him. Despite his gentle personality, he tends to speak his mind when he feels strongly about an issue. For instance, on seeing Hebihara coldly pushing his son, Hayato, away, he shoved angrily in Hebihara's hands his report which included details of both his sons' happenings in the daycare room as well as the recent photo with the other fathers of the children, noting Hebihara's negligence as a father.
