As the son of the president of Kitazawa Building Corp, Minoru comes from a very wealthy family, and has high expectations made of him. He could very well fill this role, too, considering he had the top marks on the entrance exam for his (very expensive) private high school. Problem is, he has no interest in the business, wanting, in fact, to become a professional photographer instead. This goal has created a rift between him and his ambitious father, filling them both with resentment. However, upon seeing Satsuki able to smile and be happy even when her family is going through difficult times, he resolves to better himself and try harder to mend his relationship with his father.
