** '''[[Minako Arisato|<span style="color:white;text-decoration:underline;">Minako Arisato</span>]]''' - DDDD:

** '''[[Shiki Ichimonji|<span style="color:white;text-decoration:underline;">Shiki Ichimonji</span>]]''' - One of the first kohais Shinjiro took a personal hand in mentoring, Shinjiro is quite proud of how far Shiki has come: though at times it does feel as if Shiki's increased responsibility and self-sufficiency within SEES means increased distance as well.

** '''<span style="color:white;text-decoration:underline;">Andrei Sokolov</span>''' - Shinjiro would be OK with never seeing this man again. ...mostly OK, anyway.

** '''[[Fuuka Yamagishi|<span style="color:white;text-decoration:underline;">Fuuka Yamagishi</span>]]''' - Shinjiro is quite fond of her due to her devotion, and her sweet and quiet disposition. Ever since her disastrous attempt to bake him a birthday cake, however, he has promised her his assistance in learning how NOT to kill people with cooking.

** '''[[Mitsuru Kirijo|<span style="color:white;text-decoration:underline;">Mitsuru Kirijo</span>]]''' - One of Shinjiro's oldest and best friends. His feelings towards her alternate between devotion, protectiveness, and gratitude; but he is also one of the very few people who is not afraid to occasionally interact with-- and advise-- her as an equal; particularly as he has slowly left his apathy behind and taken on more and more responsibility in helping her administer SEES. He is one of the few who will outright defy her, if pushed. There is also nothing peculiar or borderline-Freudian about their relationship in the least.

** '''[[Akihiko Sanada|<span style="color:white;text-decoration:underline;">Akihiko Sanada</span>]]''' - G=(e_eG)

** '''[[Ryotaro Dojima|<span style="color:white;text-decoration:underline;">Ryotaro Dojima</span>]]''' - The one male adult who can get Shinjiro to ._.;

** '''[[Tohya Kidzuki|<span style="color:white;text-decoration:underline;">Tohya Kidzuki:</span>]]''' - Shinjiro doesn't know Tohya well, but from what little he's seen of her (and what he has heard of her) he believes she must be a decent sort, even if she does like Kandori for some incomprehensible reason. He is relieved Tohya is no longer with the NWO.

** '''[[Aigis|<span style="color:white;text-decoration:underline;">Aigis</span>]]''' - Though Aigis may be a deadly battle bot, Shinjiro treats her with the same gentleness and guidance he would give any flesh and blood kohai.

** '''[[Chisaki Tohsaki|<span style="color:white;text-decoration:underline;">Chisaki Tohsaki</span>]]''' - Another of the kohais Shinjiro has taken a personal interest in (and who has taken a personal interest in him, in turn), Shinjiro is very fond of Chisaki's upbeat, frank attitude and way with weapons. They also have in common certain issues with their Personae.

** '''[[Ken Amada|<span style="color:white;text-decoration:underline;">Ken Amada</span>]]''' - :(((

** '''[[Katsuya Suou|<span style="color:white;text-decoration:underline;">Katsuya Suou</span>]]''' - God what a nag!! Shinjiro doesn't know how Tatsuya lives with this guy. Shinjiro is also selectively blind to the fact Katsuya probably irritates him so much because the two are actually very similar.

** None of note.

** '''[[Ran Itoh|<span style="color:white;text-decoration:underline;">Ran Itoh</span>]]''' - Ran has been the greatest constant in Shinjiro's life, ever since she first entered it as a frightened blonde looking very out of place in the Dark Hour. Though he initially attempted to push her away, not wanting her to be hurt by pining after his suicidal self, she never once wavered in her support or her faith. Ultimately, her refusal to let him sink alone saved his life. The closest Shinjiro has ever come to losing control, and breaking his steadfast beliefs against killing, was upon seeing Ran's life threatened.

** '''[[Enoha Koinose|<span style="color:white;text-decoration:underline;">Enoha Koinose</span>]]''' - Where Shinjiro lectures kohais, Enoha lectures Shinjiro. Enoha is the closest Shinjiro has to an elder sister figure.

** '''[[Rui Onishi|<span style="color:white;text-decoration:underline;">Rui Onishi</span>]]''' - Shinjiro first encountered Rui Onishi while the latter was attempting not to bleed to death in a Sumaru street. Her strange and defensive behavior led him to pity her... something for which Rui has yet to forgive him.

** '''[[Seiichi Miyamoto|<span style="color:white;text-decoration:underline;">Seiichi Miyamoto</span>]]''' - When Seiichi appears as his normal self, Shinjiro has no significant problem with him save to be wary of him (since apparently things are Tense between him and Naomi), and to be somewhat competitive/threatened/protective about the way Seiichi is apparently wooing Mitsuru!! Lately, however, Shinjiro has to admit that Seiichi has done nothing particularly untoward (other than that Lovers incident), and in fact seems to genuinely care for Mitsuru. These facts have led Shinjiro to an increased trust of Seiichi. Though he's still an asshole!! When Seiichi appears as his masked self, however, Shinjiro wants nothing more than to beat him senseless and drag him home for interrogation and neutralization.

** '''[[Miwa Saitou|<span style="color:white;text-decoration:underline;">Miwa Saitou</span>]]''' - Despite being the same age (or year, at least) as Miwa, Shinjiro tends to think of her as 'another kohai.' Though he isn't foolish enough to think that she doesn't have an inner strength of her own, he certainly thinks of her as someone who needs protecting. In the interests of disclosure-- just so Miwa would know what kind of person she purports to accept-- he has told her his secret. She was a long time in coming to terms with it.

** '''[[Naomi Suzuno|<span style="color:white;text-decoration:underline;">Naomi Suzuno</span>]]''' - What began as a tense relationship-- with Naomi highly unsettled by Shinjiro's strong Resonance, and Shinjiro scornful of what he assumed to be another spoilt princess-- has become a trusting friendship. Naomi is one of the few people in whom Shinjiro will confide. She also brings out the teasing, rakish aspects of Shinjiro that have not seen use in years.

** '''[[Itsuka Mizuhara|<span style="color:white;text-decoration:underline;">Itsuka Mizuhara</span>]]''' - Shinjiro is aware of her devotion to him, and a desire to avoid hurting her was a predominant reason for his decision not to die. She has recently shown signs of growing up and growing apart from him-- so to speak-- for which he is a little relieved. Not because he desires to push her away, necessarily, but because he can occasionally be a little troubled by certain of her tendencies, and is concerned by the depth of her attachment to him.

** '''[[Mai Namikawa|<span style="color:white;text-decoration:underline;">Mai Namikawa</span>]]''' - Shinjiro-- in his typical gruff way-- cares for Mai as one of his underclassmen. He sees in her an unhealthy amount of emotional repression to rival his own, and though he is hardly an adept at navigating emotional waters, he would like to relieve her of some of her crippling guilt. Recent events have only revealed just how deeply her guilt and emotional damage run. Though at first Shinjiro had difficulty in coming to trust Mai again, after learning she had been lying about her identity, the bond is now recovering.

** '''[[Hinata Itoh|<span style="color:white;text-decoration:underline;">Hinata Itoh</span>]]''' - Ran's little sister. Possibly... a future sister-in-law?!

** None of note.

** '''[[Tatsuya Suou|<span style="color:white;text-decoration:underline;">Tatsuya Suou</span>]]''' - Though their surface personalities are rather different, Tatsuya being more given to even, direct bluntness and Shinjiro more volatile and prone to moods and passions, at heart they are rather similar: delinquent gentlemen committed to the protection of others. This means they are able to get along effortlessly and communicate by delinquent telepathy. They have made a silent sort of pact to look after their respective ojousans, knowing that without some good and solid delinquent guidance, the ojous will end up doing ridiculous things like being put in jail, or attempting to draw lots on who gets to martyr themselves if the world goes to hell.

** '''[[Kanon Itoh|<span style="color:white;text-decoration:underline;">Kanon Itoh</span>]]''' - Ran's elder sister. Also possibly a future relative e_e;;
