Tarou Hanaukyou

A short, quiet, patient and persuasive middle school boy who inherits his mysterious grandfather's home at the age of 14. A common source of humor is his dealing with the overeager work ethic of the maids. He is put off by fawning women. (In the original anime series, this was exaggerated into a near-allergic reaction to any contact with a woman except one.) He thinks of his maids as friends and family rather than servants, and treats them as such, much to the consternation of some. He is rather blatantly attracted to Mariel.

During the first series, he usually sports the "sly fox eyes" look, but during La Verite he tends to keep his eyes open more often. He's rather aloof, but tends to act very maturely when the situation calls for it.
