Story
Relationships
- Mr and Mrs Tachibana appear to be a compatible, happily married couple.
- Makoto and his mom have a loving relationship and he is sensitive to her needs, as seen when he sacrifices having a much-desired dog because she has allergies. He also often babysits his younger siblings at her request without complaint.
- Ren and Ran seem to be quite dependent and close to her, clinging to her whenever they can.
- Mr and Mrs Tachibana have a friendly relationship with Mr and Mrs Nanase starting when Makoto and Haruka Nanase are very young, spending time together as families and continuing to socialize as the boys grow up, as seen when they sit beside one another at one of the swimming tournaments in which their sons are competing.
- Mrs. Tachibana takes a motherly attitude towards Haruka; preparing him nutritious meals when his parents are busy with work or whenever he is left on his own for any length of time. She trusts his judgment to the point of allowing him to assist with babysitting.
