His parents divorced and he now lives with his father (presumably he first lived with his mother after the divorce, but when starting high school he moved in with his father instead, for unknown reasons). He is currently attending the same high school as Futaba under a new last name (probably his mother's). He eventually admits to being "Tanaka-kun," and while acting cold and uncaring toward her most of the time, his nice side becomes gradually more prominent. It's revealed that he moved away to live with his mother due to his parent's divorce. His mother's later terminal illness, caused him terrible grief and trauma, eventually resulting in his change of personality.
Birthday: June 19 Zodiac sign: Gemini Blood type: A Height: 160 cm Weight: 50 kg Best subject: Science Worst subject: English Favorite food: Tarako pasta Least favorite food: Milk Favorite musician: Abe Mao First love: 1st year of middle school Usual snack: Garbo ball Favorite beverage: Tea Favorite color: White Other: Her bedroom is actually really girly. Futaba often shied away from boys, writing them off as crude, rough, and vulgar all except the mild-voiced, small-built, Kou. They shared a brief attraction to each other. One day, Kou suddenly moved away without any notice leaving behind a stunned Futaba. Futaba's life took a drastic turn after Kou's departure—the other boys started to take notice of Futaba's flawless face, alienating her from the rest of the girls. They began to hate Futaba and blame her eventually exiling her all together. Now in high school, Futaba is determined to not be too girly in order to avoid a repetition of what happened in her middle school years. When she confesses to Kou, she is rejected. Touma confesses to her even after knowing that she loves Kou. She starts dating him when he says that he won't give up and will definitely make her fall in love with him. The reason that she started dating was so that she could forget her feelings for Kou. Later when Kou realises that he can never love anyone else but Futaba, he goes after her even though he knows that she is dating Touma. She also comes to terms to her real feelings that she loves only Kou. She breaks up with Touma and starts dating Kou. At times she is even shown to be too obsessive about Kou that she tells she wants to see his all types of faces like when crying or smiling or blushing. She even tells that she wants him also to be the same for her.
Hermes is a Brough Superior motorrad (a two-wheeled vehicle that cannot fly but moves in the direction it's pointed—in other words, a motorcycle) who travels around with Kino. Hermes provides the speed that allows them to go anywhere they wish. Aside from his speed and capacity for toting about large amounts of luggage (Kino never seems to travel light), Hermes doesn't really have many other qualities except for constantly mixing up quotes and complaining. He is also rather gullible, trusting Kino absolutely even when Kino is teasing him, which leads him to grumble and complain some more. Perhaps his most famous line is "I'm bored." The motorrad is in many ways naive and innocent, and acts very child-like, which tends to be a sharp contrast to Kino's more mature and worldly bearing. Still, Hermes is quite reliable and makes a good companion for long trips. In the Gakuen Kino off-shot series, he takes the form of a cell phone strap instead. (Source: kino.ming-ling.net)
