* ChickMagnet: Kintaro, combined with being a CluelessChickMagnet, as, despite relentlessly perusing the girls who end up falling for him, he often ends up leaving town before they can get with him. Played more straight in the manga where he does get with some of them.

* ActualPacifist: Kintaro has Kenpo training, but he only reveals it once, after getting beaten up several times.
** He uses his combat skills several times in the manga, but only to defend others. [[WouldHitAGirl He even attacks a woman]] in one volume of the manga to save a Yakuza (who had been beating him up, no less) from her. Most times he prefers to use [[PressurePoint pressure points]] to incapacitate people and get away instead of opening up an all-out can of whoop ass.
