Kyouji is a stoic former convenience store clerk from a well-established family, which consists of his father, his older brother, his younger brother, and Kyouji himself. After failing multiple times at the entrance exam for his desired college, a harsh argument broke out between Kyouji and his father (and later his older brother) ended with Kyouji packing his suitcase and leaving home. He vowed that he'll become a successful man in his life without his family's name.

Kyouji is clumsy with words, but he has good intentions and genuinely loves the other members of Beit. When they shower him with compliments, he gets embarrassed and doesn’t know what to say back, but he returns those feelings wholeheartedly and will voice them back if the atmosphere is right.

Kyouji detests his family due to them neglecting and verbally abusing him. The only exception is his younger brother, Hotaru, who he still loves and cares for. None of the Beit members have ideal family situations, so they’ve become each others main pillars of support: their own 'Beit family'. Kyouji can’t manage to say no to either Minori or Pierre. Minori knows how to cheer him up whenever Kyouji has moments of self-doubt, and Kyouji knows that Minori relies on him to take care of the things he can’t do. Kyouji loves household appliances.
