Nogi, Ruka

乃木流架

Ruka is Natsume's childhood friend and is often referred to by Mikan throughout the story as "Ruka-pyon." He possesses a gentle and pleasant personality that balances Natsume's. Although he attempts to conceal his feelings for Mikan Sakura, the adults are already aware of them and have frequently teased Ruka through the Watching Over Ruka Group. He always carries a rabbit and has a knack for animals, which seem to be drawn to him. He is also the primary target of Hotaru, who enjoys taking funny pictures of him and selling them.
He belongs to the Somatic class. He is a Triple Star student, just like Hotaru.
