Ichijou Tsukino/Relationships

Being the protagonist of the story, as well as the new host of the Boosted Gear and heir of Issei Hyoodou's legacy, Ichijou creates and shares several relationships with the rest of the cast. While the majory of them are hostile, Ichijou would soon develop more and more positive ones with those he cares about.

Berolina Gremory
Ichijou's King and the first devil he made contact with, Berolina shares with him a zig-zagged relationship. First hostile towards her because of her usual idiotic personality, ichijou would later grow used to her shenanigans, as he discovers that she's not as stupid as he first thought, as she puts all of her fates and dreams on him for being the new red dragon emperor. During the events of Volume 3, in which she would enter a deep depression, Ichijou would try to lift her spirit and share some ideas with her, tolerating her new behavior even after she tries to rape him. After the events of volume 4, she started growing genuine feelings for him, as she stays as his boke to his Tsukkomi, and not just to mimic Rias/Issei's previous relationship.

Annabelle Hellsing
Dubbed Ichijou's first friend and fellow knight, both of them share one of the most sincere and mutual friendships in the series, being both the straight man for the peerage, as well as their snark battles bring them the sense of equality. Annie is the only character which Ichijou doesn't hit through the course of the story, and he becomes extremely angered when she threatens to leave the group to become a stray and Kill the Vampire King in volume 3. She's the only one who doesn't hold for now feelings for him.

Tasha Campbell
Ichijou's fellow bishop. An arrogant witch from Ireland, she would later be hit by the humble pie as she lost to ichijou during a heated match against each other during school days. She developed a crush on him after her defeat, and candidate herself to be Berolina's bishop in order to stay close to him and become stronger as a magician. She has no problem sharing her past with him, as well as think of him and the rest of the peerage as a family.

Liu Bei
Ichijou's fellow rook and the only one of Berolina's peerage that wasn't hostile in their first encounter. A boisterous young woman from China, despite their clashing personalities and nationalities, Liu Bei doesn't feel any negative feelings for him, as treats him like a friend. Both of them are a close relationship, as her usual cheerful and boastful self it's what triggers Ichijou's later development and determination. She would later become part of his (unknown) harem.

Shiori Kamiyama
Ichijou's crush and the first-year idol.
