Medaka is a 2nd year high school student and is being raised by his family to become a monk. This upbringing means he has been discouraged from mixing with girls for most of his life, something that’s led him into some difficulties at his new school, particularly with Mona Kawai, a very popular student who couldn’t understand his lack of interest in her. Feeling slighted by his disinterest, Mona soon began a campaign of trying to win Medaka over by any means necessary.
Mona is completely unaware of Medaka’s monk background, and that Medaka is sorely tempted by her advances. Despite this, he is determined to stick to his religious precepts.
Medaka is a quiet and reserved person, which often makes him seem unfriendly and unapproachable, but he is actually quite a soft and well-meaning person. He is especially poor at understanding girls, and often bemused by Mona’s advances towards him, which he often interprets as just eccentricities of Tokyo girls
