Taishi Gotanda/Relationships

Aquamarine Hoshino
Gotanda has known Aqua ever since he was but a child. This time was, too, back when Ai Hoshino was around and was asked to perform in an acting drama. Ruby and Aqua were under the guise as being Miyako Saitou's children. Gotanda was initially quite cold to the child Aqua; warning him that he'd be thrown out if ever he threw a fit. He was surprised when Aqua was able to properly converse with him as if he were a man in a child's body. Aqua told to him that Youtube was the excuse; Gotanda outright believed such a claim and said that Aqua is quite the outlier compared to other child actors. The two conversed as Ai was recording her takes. Him telling Aqua of the various things that it'd take to survive within the entertainment industry, and even asked him if he could offer Aqua a job. These series of events would mark the start of their bond that'd stay throughout the series.
