DESCRIPTION:

Koichi Shindo is a supporting character in the series. He is the boyfriend of Chika Ichijou who attended the same junior high school as Izumi Miyamura and Makio Tanihara.

PERSONALITY:

Kouichi is shown to have a very kind and upbeat personality who is always seen smiling and he was very popular in middle school where he befriended Izumi Miyamura in junior high school when many others outcasted him. At first, he was very forgetful and it took him many tries before he got Miyamura's name right (this occurred in one scene - in the manga, he gets it right every time after chapter 18). Kouichi stood up for Izumi when Makio Tanihara told him he was bad news and that he should not hang around him, due to his depressing personality and many piercings. He lets Makio know that Izumi's depressing personality is due to the way Makio's group of friends treat him. Kouichi sees Izumi as a very interesting person and stays by his side, and they become best friends. Kouichi is the person Izumi believes changed him to feel free to be himself around others. Kouichi and Izumi end up attending different high schools: Izumi will go to Katagiri High School and Kouichi will attend Yasaka High school due to his parents wanting him to set his goals higher.
