Kitakore
Applying to both:
- Childhood Friends: They knew each other from get-togethers in the upper class sphere, and became friends from it.

Tomohisa Kitakado
Voiced By: Daisuke Ono
- Fiction 500: His family's company is stupidly rich. They have bases all over Japan, and even expanded to islands (one of which the boys get themselves stranded on in the anime).

Goshi Kaneshiro

- Ineffectual Loner: Tries to act tough with his teammates, fails miserably.
- Red Eyes, Take Warning: It's not worth it to piss him off, as he's a generally ornery boy.
