85* TheLeader: In the anime, he comes across as this for QUARTET★NIGHT. He gets the most lines and is the one whose feelings for Haruka come across as most serious. In his route in ''All Star'', he gets appointed as this too.

118* FlowerMotifs: To an extent. The "ran" kanji in his name means "orchid" (and in his signature he actually writes his name as "Kurosaki Orchid"). Camus often insults him telling his hair looks like a dandelion. And in ''After Secret'', he gives Haruka a bouquet of flowers in his first CG.
119* FoodAsBribe: Any food from the shop of Reiji's family.
120%%* {{Guyliner}}
121* HairColorDissonance: Averted. In ''After Secret'' Masato and Ren refer to his hair as "silver". However, it's not his natural colour as the latter two are surprised upon seeing him again in years.

139* CynicismCatalyst: [[spoiler: His father's death.]]
140* DarkAndTroubledPast: [[spoiler: Used to be the heir of a big company, but his father was betrayed and died while trying to pay his debts.

141* DisappearedDad: See above entry.
142* DontYouDarePityMe: One of his [=CGs=] in the game happens while he tells this to Haruka.
143* HollywoodAtheist: Comes across as this, reacting badly when he finds out Ren and Masato called him for visiting the shrine at New Year's Day.

144* ICallItVera: Calls his bass his "girlfriend".
145* InterruptedDeclarationOfLove: [[spoiler: In his love end, he tries to confess after winning the song festival but is [[IDontWantToRuinOurFriendship interrupted by Haruka, who runs away. He has another chance later, and Haruka accepts.]]]]
146* KindheartedCatLover: Despite being quite rude to people, he feeds everyday the stray cats in his neighbourhood.
147* RealMenCook: Worked as a part-time cook for a while.
148* RealLifeWritesThePlot: In ''All Star'', Haruka calls "Tama" one of the cats he usually feeds. Tatsuhisa Suzuki has a cat named Tama.
149* TheRunaway: [[spoiler: Believing music would be enough to maintain himself, and deciding that his position as the family heir gave him responsibility over his late father's debts, he left his mother and sister and ran away when he was young.]]
150* StrawMisogynist: In the game, he refuses to work with Haruka [[spoiler: at first]] because he thinks women are useless at composing music. [[spoiler: He doesn't trust women because all the bands he joined split because of women.]]
151* WithThisRing: [[spoiler: In the good end of his A route in ''After Secret'', he gives Haruka a ring he made himself as a symbol of their eternal love.]]
152[[/folder]]

186* CurtainsMatchTheWindow
187* FirstNameBasis: With everyone. However, in his dialogue names are written in katakana rather than kanji, implying that calling everyone by their first names is some sort of programming rather than actual closeness.
188%%* GrewBeyondTheirProgramming
189%%* LoveImbuesLife
190* ImageSong: "Winter Blossom", "A.I." and "Futari no Monogram". In the anime, it's "INNOCENT WIND".
191* LateArrivalSpoiler: The fact that he's a robot.
192* MeaningfulName: Ai. A.I. He's a robot. Get it?
193** Ai can also mean "love" in Japanese, but with the kanji his name is written, it means "indigo". Which of course is a symbol for deep and lasting love.
194* YoungerThanTheyLook: Ai looks to be about 19, he's actually 15, a year ''younger'' than his kouhai, Syo.

202* RobotMe: Of Aine Kisaragi.
203* SupremeChef: To ridiculous levels. In ''After Secret'' he cooks for Haruka ''a whole tower of sandwiches''.
204* WhatIsThisThingYouCallLove: He doesn't understand the concept of love at first and trying to process it causes him to overheat. That even causes him to crash in "Debut" and "All Star".
