p.1-70: delinquent x delinquent. reencounter after #growth spurt. despite how seme projects himself, he actually despises fighting and is not really a delinquent. he is already scared just by pretending. he is only doing that bec he wanted to be with uke.
uke has been bluffing his way through the high post. in all actuality, he's awkward, delicate and a little bit sloppy. he's extremely popular and people see him as a cool, gentle and capable... a perfect president
i actually like the neighbor... it's around the end that we get to know that he's not just that flashy, shallow good-looking guy but there's more to him and i'm actually impressed
seme
smooth, glimmering, benevolent prince image
blunt, brash and inelegant. total opposite of his looks.
he got deep into acting the princely type part but its hard for him as well. he's still human afterall.
btw, the way he rejected the uke with a strained smile... it's so funny.

vol. 4 and 5, juunsuke's lil bro's story, yoshinari. it's so sad and heartbreaking. a young man, just a freshman in college who tries to be strong in the midst of his insecurity and loneliness that stemmed from being neglected by his older bro.
seme - being awkward as he is, it is a miracle he survived in showbiz. thankfully, his manager is really nice and tries to 'interpret' his poker face for everyone. luckily he had his handsome face so it's easy to pass it off as being stoic and handsome
uke
in truth, he's shy and unexpressive but because of his trade (hosting at the time) he develop a personality to suit his job
uke - pretends to be ordinary
vol 2 onwards: with that glasses, this new nice and timid teacher looks plain in every perspective but to the seme's surprise, he got everyone fooled.
uke
'image is everything' says kaoru. he's always worked on that in order to distract him away from his weakness.

ch.1-2, 6: a prince-looking guy who's appearance & personality has a wide gap
his height, looks and aura is that of a prince but he's actually shy, cry-baby and weak
uke.
ch. 3: two-faced girly-looking uke.
puts on a sweet face but is actually dark & devilish
sensei made him show his true self and helped him too.
