Premise

Kyotaro Ichikawa is a disgruntled loner student who fantasizes about murdering his popular classmates, often reading a murder encyclopedia and learning about human anatomy, with the beautiful class idol, Anna Yamada, being his prime target. However, when he observes that Anna is rather quirky in her own way, and when she becomes increasingly friendly towards Kyotaro, he gradually warms up to her and they start to become closer.

Voiced by: Shun Horie[2] (Japanese); Clint Bickham[3] (English)
A middle school boy who has chuunibyou tendencies. He loves spending time reading books in the library, where he and Anna first met. Initially, Kyotaro had delusions of killing Anna and making her corpse his alone, but they were replaced by romantic affection as he spends more time around her. He can be quite perceptive in social situations but often fails to pick up on other social problems due to his lack of communication skills and low self esteem.

By chance he and Anna are alone in the library where he notices the odd behavior she exhibits, including humming like a monkey. Seeing she needs scissors for her schoolwork he impulsively lends her his box-cutter, leaving him without his weapon. He finds the box-cutter in his desk later, surprising him she knew which desk was his. He begins to notice more odd behaviors, which somehow tempts him to secretly offer help. They accidentally interrupt a classmates love confession and Kyotaro is forced by Anna to make cat noises to conceal their eavesdropping. Kyotaro is baffled by his continuing to help her. Later he spots Anna in a shop blatantly trying to get noticed as the model on the magazines, which makes him embarrassed on her behalf. On impulse he buys the magazine and it is implied he uses it to masturbate. The next day he spots a "senpai" named Haruya harassing Anna and impulsively speeds his bike into the river as a distraction. Anna correctly deduces he did it to help, which makes her happy.

Chihiro appears so Anna hides under the desk, giving him an erection. Chihiro ends up revealing she is allergic to snack food so Anna always snacks alone. Kyotaro is forced to visit the bathroom with his erection. The class does a haunted house for Culture Festival and Anna notices her name on a tombstone. Kyotaro takes the blame to spare the real culprit, Honoko, but Honoko reveals she had innocently used everyone’s names, not just Anna. Anna realizes Kyotaro took the blame trying to spare Honoko. Kyotaro notices Haruya approach Anna again but is relieved when other girls protect Anna this time. He and Anna end up alone by a display of town maps, revealing their homes are only one mile apart.

He wonders if he should kill her but she shares her own medicine with him, then leaves. The nurse asks him to return the shirt Anna left behind, the smell of which arouses him. Boys in class ask Kyotaro to pass Anna a lewd note. Kyotaro instead passes the drawing of his manga heroine, which resembles her. The same boys attempt a trick that supposedly reveals the girls favorite sex position, but the girls expose them before Anna falls for it. Anna unwittingly performs the trick on Kyotaro that suggests girl-on-top position, giving him another erection. Kyotaro cannot reconcile his hatred with his sexual attraction so when Anna injures her nose in basketball he follows her to the infirmary determined to kill her. When he hears Anna crying over her nose ruining an important photoshoot, and sees she has kept his drawing, he realizes he loves her. As her nose hurts continuously Kyotaro leaves tissues as an anonymous gift. He is rather disappointed she uses them to clean snack crumbs and yet happy to see her smile again.

Kyotaro notices the spilled snack looks lewd. Kyotaro notices Kanaoya staring at Anna and deduces she wants to talk to her so he leaves them alone in the library. Kanaoya apologizes for hurting Anna’s nose. Serina noticed what Kyotaro did and thanks him. Somehow, Kyotaro ends up taking Anna home on his bike. While drinking, Anna gives Kyotaro the bottle lid, then after getting home she gives him his own bottle as a thank you for the ride, so Kyotaro embarrassingly gives her the lid from his bottle, making her laugh. Anna spots Kyotaro with his doting older sister and is cheerfully envious since she is an only child. Kyotaro realizes Anna came to talk to him on purpose, despite her claim otherwise.

Anna notices and praises Kyotaro’s good deed. Anna and Hara discuss dating, revealing Anna has never dated. Hara is amused Anna spends so much time with Kyotaro. During the rain Anna has no umbrella so she borrows Kyotaro’s raincoat to go buy one. Kyotaro notices she forgot her purse and rushes it to her, becoming soaked, only to find she had an umbrella all along. Anna covers her mistake by claiming it is broken.
