I dunno ... Kyou REALLY strikes me as fitting into the model of a classic male anime/manga protagonist of being incredibly (and I really mean INCREDIBLY) *dense* when it comes to the opposite sex. A "late bloomer" if you will.
Never really struck me that he looked at any other RL woman around his age in a way that would lead to anything resembling a "serious" relationship.
Whether one thinks Kyou's denseness believable is another issue, of course - but for me he is just another case of a incredibly dense young male lead character in this general genre.
I wonder if he comes across like this in the novels as well?
