- Graceful Loser: When he's finally defeated and sent off, he holds no ill will for Saki and Sakuyo, wishing them well for their futures and telling them he's rooting for them. He shoots the girls a smile before exiting their lives.
- Interrupted Suicide: At the climax, Saki refuses to take him down as the Demon Lord after knowing he did it all to make her into a true magical girl heroine.

Saki's magical companion.
- Eyes Out of Sight: He wears sunglasses all the time, making it impossible to see his eyes.

- Fluffy the Terrible: Such an adorable name like Kokoro-chan doesn't suit a guy that looks and acts like a Yakuza at all.
- Meaningful Name: "Kokoro" means "Heart". Its both meaningful, for a Mentor Mascot, and Ironic, given his Yakuza look.
- Mentor Mascot: He's supposed to play the role of "mascot character" who guides Saki as it's stereotypical in Magical Girl shows. The twist here is that the "fairy" looks and talks like a Yakuza thug.
- Scars Are Forever: He has scars across his right eye and nose.
