Ruto (ルト Ruto) is Lory Takarada's companion.[1] Due to his butler-like appearance, Kyoko started referring to him as Sebastian.

He was originally seen only wearing the Arabic attire thawb, as Lory was on a desert-theme fad at his introduction. He has since been shown wearing a traditional western suit.

He also knows about Kyoko's feelings for Ren as he witnessed the scene when Lory confronted Kyoko about her real feelings.

Personality[]

He is the trusted confidante of Lory. He appears to be quick, reliable and quiet. He rarely talks except if he needs to. He follows Lory's orders obediently and seems to have knowledge of Lory's problems. He is also described to have sharp senses by Lory.[2]

Background[]

Nothing much is known about his background but it appears that he has known Lory Takarada for quite a while since he knew about Maria's case.[3]

Appearance[]

His dark-colored hair is swept up. His eyes also appear to be dark-colored and he appears to have tanned skin. Sebastian usually sports a formal suit or an Arabian-inspired outfit to match Lory. When he pretended to be a stalker of Sho Fuwa, he hid his face with a hoodie and sunglasses.[4]

Relationships[]

Lory Takarada[]

Being Lory's trusted confidante, he follows every order Lory gives him. He is always by Lory's side and seems to know Lory's concerns as well. For instance, he was by his side during the "Grateful Party" Maria and Kyoko hosted, and seems to be truly happy for him because his granddaughter was finally able to smile on her birthday despite of the tragic event that happened in the past. He was also Lory's messenger when Ren checked up on Kyoko to find out if she knew about Saena's interview.

Ren Tsuruga[]

It has not been made clear if Sebastian knows about Ren's feelings for Kyoko, but during Maria and Kyoko's grateful party, Ren asked him to give him the gigantic rose he has prepared for Kyoko exactly at 12 o'clock.

Kyoko Mogami[]

When Kyoko first meets Sebastian[5], she thinks that she is being treated as a "lady" by him due to the way he acts and speaks.[6] Sebastian seems to be genuinely concerned for Kyoko. He offered to escort Kyoko after the heart-wrenching confrontation she had with Lory, but was rejected[7]. He later regretted still letting Kyoko walk by herself with such a distraught face and even stated that he should've still escorted her no matter what measures it took.[8]

Sho Fuwa[]

Sebastian seems to have known that Sho was still around when Ren was trying to comfort a distressed Kyoko. To prevent him from trying to see where the two went, he pretended to be a stalker of Sho by saying facts about him that is not commonly known such as his address and body measurements.[9] Sho was creeped out by Sebastian so he decided to leave the place where Kyoko was around.[10] Sebastian seems to have known or followed Sho for quite a while since he murmurs to himself that Sho has grown a bit since the last time.[11]
