Valentin is a french young man who is a beautician. He is a playboy and a dandy. He's been known to flirt with many women and has been slapped many a time. While he can be viewed as someone who doesn't care for anyone but himself, he isn't.  Valentin cares deeply for his friends and his best friend is Shotaro. Whenever anyone is worried or upset he'll do his best to cheer them up by playing the viola or by telling stories of his home in France.  He and his younger sister Jerica moved to America when they were six years old but still speak French to one another. Valentin does, however, sprinkle some french in vocabulary when conversing with people.
