Shingo Watase

Watase Shingo (渡瀬 伸吾) is a classmate and friend of Taichi. He is a member of Yamaboshi High's soccer team and has a crush on Fujishima Maiko.

Personality
Despite supposedly being a fairly bright student, all traces of such are hard to notice when he's in proximity of Fujishima. When around her, he immediately acts eager to please and is perfectly obedient. He is a good friend to Taichi.

Appearance
Watase has short, dark blue hair and teal eyes. Unlike most male students, he typically forgoes his uniform's sweater and tie.

Friends

 * Yaegashi Taichi: A male classmate. The two share a good friendship and Watase even trusts Taichi enough to be his wingman when trying to attract the attention of Fujishima, which Taichi considers a lost cause. Everytime Watase asks Taichi for help in attracting the attention of Fujishima, Taichi asks him "are you seriously a masochist?" Watase is also jealous that Taichi is always having girls around him and Fujishima talking to him more than Watase.
 * Fujishima Maiko: His class representative and the object of Watase's affection. Greatly admiring her beauty and maturity, Watase is all but at her beck and call. Watase openly acknowledges that Fujishima is out of his league, which is what makes her all the more appealing to him.
