What Makes Him Pure Good?[]
- While he may seem arrogant with how he brags about being the hero and the Ultimate Astronaut, this is only a facade to hide his insecurities and he never thinks of himself as better than his friends, he instead encourages Shuichi and all of them to be the best they can.

- When Kaede gave a motivational speech that calms everyone down, he was very impressed to how she grouped everyone.
- When Kaede apologized for making everyone suffer from going through the tunnel, he told her that she didn't need to apologize and that it wasn't her fault.

- When Shuichi revealed that Kaede was the culprit, he refused to believe that she would kill someone. Then, when Kaede confirmed it, he didn't blame her and still viewed her as a great person.
- When the Monokubs summoned the exisal for breaking the rule, he, Gonta and Tenko tried to protect Kaede from getting executed by putting their lives on their line.
- While he did angrily criticize Shuichi and punched him after the trial, it was only to remind him Kaede believed in him and to motivate him to become stronger, as Shuichi did nothing but stay silent the whole time and let Monokuma do whatever he wanted. He also apologized for punching Shuichi the next day.
- He invited Shuichi to train with him so he could be more confident in himself.
- He believed in Maki and didn't suspect her for killing Ryoma, despite not having any evidence.
- He and Shuichi were the only ones who didn't think Maki was lying that she met Ryoma at nighttime.
- He reassured Shuichi and stated that if he made any mistakes, he would take responsibility, stating that he was responsible for any mistakes that his "sidekick" makes.

- When Maki was about to kill Kokichi, he protected him by covering him with his left arm from the arrow, refusing to let Maki to be the blackened and get executed.
