* CantStandThemCantLiveWithoutThem: Aptly sums up his relationship with Natsu. As much as they bicker (sometimes leading to physical altercations), you'd think he'd call it off with her and find someone else. '''[[MasochismTango Nope.]]''' Still, the Gorin ending of ''Project Justice'' shows him trying to confess his feelings for Natsu, before Momo kills the moment.

* DualBoss: For their team's second story mode battle, he and Roberto double-team Natsu after she and Shoma have an argument. Shoma and Roberto start the match with 3 full stocks of super meter[[note]]they start with 5 in the UsefulNotes/PlayStation version[[/note]], while hers is empty. Meaning, they get to use their [[LimitBreak Burning Vigors]] and their team up attack right from the start. So if you're using Shoma as your primary character, it's basically a CurbstompBattle.

It's her rather abrasive interactions with Shoma that nearly divides the group, though she also shows some feelings for him.
