A peculiar man approaches Kotomi on the street during her arc. On another occasion, while Tomoya is out alone, he spots the man outside Kotomi's residence and goes up to him, inquiring about his identity. The gentleman explains that he was formerly a colleague of Kotomi's parents and has something significant to discuss with her. He recounts a complex tale regarding the Ichinoses' research and their scientific findings. Tomoya discovers details about Kotomi's history in the Illusionary World and learns that the gentleman is actually her official guardian and godfather, since her parents perished in a plane crash several years prior. The man everyone assumed was a villain was, in fact, attempting to give her the birthday gift she had been promised as a child—a teddy bear.
