About
Ryota has been friends with Sakuichi since they were kids, and is the only one allowed to call him "Saku". After they get engaged, Ryota begins wondering what his role in the Teijin family will be, having grown up poorer than other kids. He contines to live at the Fujita hostel for awhile longer until a replacement is found, cooking meals for the residents and taking care of the cleaning.
Ryota often worries about not doing enough for Saku and not being skilled enough to be around him, though Elizabeth notes that Ryota picks up information very fast and balances out Saku's impulsiveness very well. He scolds Saku whenever he's being childish or overly demanding.
