Kaito works as a senior engineer and teaches at Kirishina Academy, where he runs the homeroom for the A-TEC class. His big goal is to build a new engine alongside his students. What keeps him motivated is looking back at how the company's co-founders started out in high school—basically nothing to their names—which makes him determined to give his students the same kind of opportunity to create something real.
On the surface, he seems like the kind of teacher who'd naturally click with students since he's not that much older than them. But fans often note that when he gets really fired up and goes into one of his passionate speeches, he can actually come across as pretty annoying. It's a funny contradiction—he wants to be relatable, but his intensity sometimes works against him.
