Relationships
Kyle Diamante:

Iris Lafleur:

Mason Mahogany: To him, Mason needs to chill more often, and to be more humble. Mason thinks of Akira as being either lazy and selfish, not willing to apply himself in theoretical courses and therefore being presumably uncultured. Despite this, the two deeply respect each other, and help supplement each other when it comes to suppression fire. When it comes to CQC, Mason takes an active role, charging at the enemy position, while Akira passively uses his CQC skills as his reserve abilities. Also, Akira develops an attraction for him...

Yumi Nadeshiko: Yumi is Akira's twin sister, and Akira is jealous and resentful of Yumi for entering Beacon Academy. Yumi thinks negatively of him, as she thinks that he does not take things seriously. Still, they do share a strong sibling bond.
