Kaito momota for the ask thing?
Ah thank you for the ask! Of course, I'd be happy to do Kaito! One of my faves from DRV3 after all!!
For me, I see Kaito as pansexual.
I see Kaito as cisgender personally.
A ship I have with said character:
Ah I will always ship him with Shuichi. Always and forever.
A BROTP I have with said character:
Kokichi - totally. Kinda in a love/hate friendship way but they're definitely buddies.
I can also see him close with Maki, Leon and Kazuichi.
A NOTP I have with said character:
Personally I didn't enjoy the Maki/Kaito arc in DRV3. It just kind of felt too one sided to me. I also don't ship him romantically with Kokichi.
I have this HC that Kaito was under an immense pressure at home.
I'm not sure if there's info on his home life (sorry if there is and this is wrong) but I just feel like maybe his dad was super hard on him and set unrealistic expectations. Like maybe he was too shy as a kid or maybe had a career path in mind like a footballer or something but his dad was like NO. And so he puts on this front, this confidence, because its what his dad has turned him into.
General Opinion over said character:
I LOVE Kaito. I think he is absolutely hilarious. I love that he clearly thinks he's the protagonist and that Shuichi is his sidekick. And I sobbed like a baby at his fate - totally ripped my heart out.
