Hajime Kurihara is a male classmate and friend of Hayato Izumi, known for his overly familiar attitude toward Karen Fujisaki and the sharp insults he receives in return.
Hajime Kurihara is one of Hayato Izumi's classmates and friends.
He often approaches Karen Fujisaki in a casual and overly friendly way.
Karen does not welcome this behavior at all.
When Hajime calls her things like "Fujisaki-chan," she rejects him and fires back with insults such as "Trash Bug No. 2."
Hajime stands out for his shamelessly familiar manner.
He treats Karen with a closeness she clearly does not permit.
This one-sided friendliness becomes part of his comedic role.
His interactions with Karen are defined by her cold refusal and harsh verbal put-downs.
Hajime tries to address Karen in a friendly, informal way.
Karen responds by keeping him firmly at a distance.
Rather than softening toward him, she openly mocks him.
Her nickname for him, including "Trash Bug No. 2," shows exactly how little patience she has for him.
In the final episode, Hajime is saddened by the thought of graduating and being separated from Karen.
Because of that, he asks her to fill out a marriage registration form.
Karen, however, does not take the gesture seriously.
She alters it and hands it back after changing it into a "slave contract."
