Relationships

 * Kousuke Endou - one of Kentarou's oldest friends. Even though Kentarou has known Kousuke for ages, he still can't perceive him, and tend to forget about his existence even though he is near him. Despite tending to forget him at times, he is very close and loyal to him as was shown when he and Jugo Nagayama immediately rushed to his aid and helped Bernard Pace so Kousuke could aid Claudia Barenberg.
 * Jugo Nagayama - one of Kentarou's oldest friends.
 * Ayako Tsuji - the two of them have feelings for each other, but both of them are too shy to openly acknowledge their feelings for each other, as it took them returning to Earth to even call each other by their first names.
 * Mao Yoshino - a member of his party.

Skills

 * Earth Magic Affinity - as a Geomancer, he has the highest proficiency and mastery with earth magic than the rest of his class, but this is mostly limited to attack based magic. He has been shown to have a limited ability to actually manipulate minerals as compared to a Synergist.
 * Earth Resistance - as a Geomancer, he has the highest resistance against earth magic.
 * Language Comprehension - a base skill granted to all those who got summoned. It gives the user the ability to understand any language and be proficient in it.

Spells/Attacks

 * Dark Gaol - a high-ranked earth spell that spreads a cloud of smoke that petrifies anything it touches. As long as any part of someone is hit by the petrification, it would slowly spread until they are completely frozen. The only way to stop it is to put up a barrier strong enough to repel it, or blow the smoke away before it touches anyone. However, only a high rank barrier would be able to hold it off. Furthermore, it requires an extremely powerful wind spell to be dislodged.
