CANON RELATIONSHIPS
Eve Neuschwanstein [Needless] -It looks like you've lost sight of the fleeting dream, The bonds that connect us will definitely never lose
"If you start picking up Blade's habits, I'll have to beat them out of you, that's all."
Eve is one of the most important people in Cruz's life. No matter how badly Eve will talk down to him or treat him, Cruz holds her in high respects and greatly looks up to her. Cruz owes her so much, a new life, a new arm... A NEW SENSE OF LIVING. He's honestly really happy to see her back on her feet and running around again compared to seeing her as a GODDAMNED BRAIN back in Memory World. Even though Eve can be stupid, Cruz always takes in her actual good advice and holds onto the times she actually praises him for doing a good job like diamonds.
ROUTE RELATIONSHIPS
Beatrice Ushiromiya [Umineko no Naku Koro ni] - I won't forget the promises we exchanged, I close my eyes to affirm it
"I don't mind what kind of story is... if you're here, then it has a happy ending, has it not?"
At first, Cruz was weirded out at Beatrice's magical perspectives of the world since he's a man of science and logic! But he's really happy to see that she's willing to learn things from other perspectives than her magical one and he's really thankful for her kindness towards him. He finds that child-like naivate of hers a bit charming in an odd way. Cruz is really looking forward to becoming her teacher and showing her alll the knowledge of the world!
After learning more about her origins and what she truly is, Cruz really wants to help her become her own person and wants to stay friends with her for as long as possible. No bad endings for Beatrice on his watch.
Ranka Lee [Macross Frontier] - Let's turn the future into the present, and paint it with our own colors.
"Cruz-san, let's do our best, okay? Errr, well, I mean... So that we don't disappoint the people who have supported us!"
From first encounters, Cruz was a little freaked out to have been traveling with her after learning about how she was part ~*alien*~, but those feelings have subsided! Ranka is one of the most sweetest and talented girls Cruz has ever met. She is a complete 180 compared to the violent girls from his world, so Ranka is really refreshing to be around. He is really honored to know that she's willing to support him through his travels no matter how much he puts himself down. Cruz will do his darnest to support her as well and be a good friend since she has been so kind to him.
Cruz ended up learning a little more about Ranka's family life which tugged his heart strings and also learned more about Ranka's success into stardom from Sheryl! He's grown more fond of her and will not hesitate to tease her more openly now. He'll even call her "Cinderella" (making a jab at her idol name in the future) as a new nickname.
Panty Anarchy [ Panty & Stocking with Garterbelt ] - Pantsu line! Freaky girl comin' your way!
"I think I misjudged you, no-balls!"
After manning up from their very rocky start, Cruz is finally getting along with Panty! He ended up seeing a different side to her which supports his thoughts about her being nice and helpful and the fact that no matter how bitchy she is, she's still a girl on the inside. He definitely likes her headstrong "I give no fucks" attitude and also likes seeing her more vulnerable sides too. Cruz cannot see himself turn his back on her anytime soon. Even if everyone else hates her, he still wants to be her friend.
Kaito Kuroba [ Magic Kaito ] - I'm being invited by a pure-white scene, I'm going to a yet-unseen world.
"Heh--! I don't claim to be a detective or a vigilante, but if Team Rocket tries something while I'm around, I'm not about to let them get away with it!"
Kaito is definitely a reliable guy in Cruz's book, that's for sure. And he can sympathize with him on some subjects like violent girls and ~*MURDERS*~. He's really glad to know that there are lots of helpful people like him around to assist newcomers. Although he seems to end up attracting the strangest of troubles (*COUGHPANTYCOUGH*)... He's still a good guy to speak with around here. He did mention that there are thieves running around in Johto, so Cruz still wonders if he'll ever meet one for a possible battle of wits someday.
Sheryl Nome [ Macross Frontier ] - ""
"The pleasure's all mine to meet a fan, I hope."
BATTEN DOWN THE HATCHES, SHERYL NOME HAS COME TO JOHTO. Cruz was honestly starstruck and flustered when she first arrived because Ranka has told him so much about her. He's already a fan of her and he hasn't listened to her music yet! And through the dream event, Cruz ended up learning about her past which he does not intend to tell Ranka. This had pretty much convinced Cruz to support her as well from the bottom of his heart. Both Sheryl and Ranka are his Number #1 Idols in his eyes. Cruz really looks forward to the day he can meet and hang out with Sheryl in person.
Kairi [Kingdom Hearts] - You've always been kind to me- truly kind, Always, always whenever I see darkness, I remember your warmth
"I can tell you've got a really strong heart, so you'll be just fine."
Is this girl an angel in disguise? Kairi managed to hit Cruz with some interesting insight about not everything in fights comes down to muscles and intelligence. The most important thing is ~*THE HEART*~ and to her, he's got a strong one. To him, hearing something encouraging like that is a big deal in his book. Cruz holds Kairi in high regard because of that and is glad that she was willing to become friends with him so quickly.
Sora [ Kingdom Hearts ] - ""
"How is a date different than just hanging out, though? We hang out all the time."
Another one of Kairi's bitches friends! Cruz had heard a lot about Sora, so he was always looking forward to meeting him and what a first meeting it was! Cruz caught onto his little crush on Kairi and teased him a bit (or a lot) on it. Then Cruz had to give him awkward, yet heartwarming (ha ha) dating advice for Sora in the future. But they both agreed that the relationship should stay the way things are for now. Other than that, Cruz really likes talking with Sora and hopes that he can hang out with him more often. And obviously, he totally ships Kairi and Sora together.
Homura Akemi [Puella Magi Madoka Magica] - ""
"That sort of kindness will only lead you to trouble."
WHY SO SERIOUS. Cruz finds Homura somewhat hard to talk with. He's still unsure if her warning about kindness was really a warning or simple advice, but Cruz thought she was looking out for him and appreciates it! Just from that, he believes that she isn't a bad person. He hopes that she'll somehow open up more to others instead of the people she knows. (ha ha if only he knew)
And after having a little talk with Madoka and venturing into her dream world during the little Soul Fiesta after the Shedninja attack, Cruz ended up learning a lot about her that he did not expect. He even saw an unexpected side to her that caught him completely off guard. At this point, Cruz is fully aware of what drives her now and does not want her to disappear because of that. He even went as far as to promising her that he would get her "happiness" back from a long time ago. Cruz doesn't know how he's going to do it (given the impossibly insane task), but he's going to try his damnest to do so, anyway.
Lion Ushiromiya [ Umineko no Naku Koro ni ] - ""
"Beatrice made a choice to become her own person instead of living as a vessel for a soul... The most important part of being a real person is deciding to be so, isn't it?"
Cruz finds Lion to be very pleasant to chat with! Still unsure about Lion's gender, but that doesn't matter to him! Lion helped Cruz realize a lot of things about Beatrice which had made him want to support her even more. And had also learned how they've been in similar situations when it came to ~*DOING THE TIME WARP AGAIN*~ and getting harassed by vicious monsters. He would not be against talking to Lion even more!
Ise Nanao [ Bleach ] - ""
"Cruz, not everyone is out to humiliate you. If that were the case, Johto would be a much more unpleasant place."
SHE IS SO NICE ;A; She was making offers for eggs a while back, so Cruz had decided to grab himself one. He thinks that she's very considerate and comforting. He ended up embarrassing himself during his CMoA during the bug attack, so she was there to make him feel less bad about it.
Kanji Tatsumi [ Persona 4 ] - ""
"They shouldn't laugh at somethin' like that! Knowin' how to sew is important too! I can teach you if you want."
Cruz already looks up to Kanji a little bit. Not only does he know how to sew, he's willing to teach him how to do it! And he feels like a dependable person, so Cruz really wants to get to know him more and help himself out whenever he needs it.
Cocona Bartel [ Ar tonelico II: Melody of Metafalica ] - ""
"Is Pacman something like... a game where a man is carrying a lot of stuff and he has to run across in the fastest time or something?"
Another face that he helped him when he first came here. Cruz had to introduce her to video games and the fourth wall, but that seemed to have weirded her out a little! Cocona already seems to think of him as a cool person, so she has already left a good impression of him. He would not mind speaking with her a little more.
Asmodeus of Lust [Umineko no Naku Koro ni] - Leave it to a girl's style! It's better to be strong, right?
"Not every man. Just most of them! As long as they're cute, why should I be picky?"
Lust! Lust everywhere! Cruz thinks Asmodeus is a pretty impressive girl. Even though she's the youngest of her sisters, she somehow feels like she's the most mature out of all of them. Since she knows a lot about romantic relationships, Cruz was really surprised to see how intelligent and mature she was about them. Her flirty nature does get him flustered, but somehow he naturally (and mostly unintentionally) returns her compliments. He can't help but be a little jealous of how close she is with her sisters since him and his own sister aren't on the greatest of terms.
Riku [ Kingdom Hearts ] - ""
"Well, if I'm going to be the strongest, I have to start somewhere."
One of Kairi's bitches friends! Cruz thinks Riku is too arrogent for his own good and knows that eventually he'll be in for one hell of a fall. Whenever Riku's down, Cruz will be there to pick him back up if that's happens. He respects his sense of adventure and he makes for an interesting conversation partner.
Xion [ Kingdom Hearts ] - ""
"You whispered some other things, but I thought you were just talking about something else."
Cruz finds Xion to be such a sweet girl. Although there's something about her that feels lonely. Cruz felt bad for her since she couldn't go on the Ruins Trip, so he got her a gift! What he wants in return? Her smile.
Daisuke Niwa [ D.N Angel ] - ""
"Wow, that really isn't so far off, but it looks like you adapted here better than I did."
AHHHHH FINALLY SOMEONE WHO UNDERSTAND THE PAINS OF BEING A GOPHEEEEEEER. Cruz talked to Daisuke a little and he likes him already! Helping out with his Gopher issues aside, Cruz hopes he can get to know him more better.
Kyoko Sakura [Puella Magi Madoka Magica] - ""
"You won't be able to sneak away from me now, though. I've got your face in mind."
This girl really likes to eat for whatever reason... and she acts like a boy. Cruz helped her out with her Licktung and despite the messy outcome, his plan turned out to be successful! He seems to end up getting into some interesting light verbal sparring with Kyoko and he kind of believes that she's a tsundere. It's always the red haired ones. Cruz is a little wary of her since it sounded like she wanted to beat him up after all of that.
Madoka Kaname [ Puella Magi Madoka Magica ] - ""
"It doesn't matter how she fixes her hair or whether she wears glasses or not. I'd be Homura-chan's friend no matter what."
Cruz knew Madoka the last time she was here, but they weren't friends or anything. He did give her a little encouraging speech about how she should "BELIEVE IN HER WHO BELIEVES IN HERSELF" but after seeing her come back in a depressing state? Feels bad man. Cruz hopes he can get to know her a bit better this time around.
Willard H. Wright [ Umineko no Naku Koro ni ] - ""
"If I can find the culprit, I can make the suffering of all these Water-Types to stop soon. Therefore, this tragedy will come to an end."
OHHHHH MISTER WILLARD. Headbutting Gyarados like one badass motha-- Shut my mouth? Hey, I was just talking about Willard. You can dig it? Awesome. Anyway, Cruz believes he is really cool, yet crazy at the same time. But seeing manly men do manly antics like that is nothing new for Cruz. It still took the cake as the biggest thing he's ever seen happen here. He does believe that he's very blunt and standoffish, but he's smart! And that's a huge plus in Cruz's book. He's looking forward to talking with him more often in the future.
Rise Kujikawa [ Persona 4 ] - ""
"No talking like that, I've seen weirder things happen. We'll get you a great girlfriend, trust me!"
Nice and friendly girl who Cruz appreciates the help in getting him more confidence. And she's hellbent on getting him a girlfriend, which Cruz cannot see happening anytime soon. He believes that the day he gets a girlfriend will be the day when pigs start flying, fire and brimstone feels the air and when cats and dogs get married all at once.
Hasao [ .hack//GU ] - ""
"It's good to have someone to look up to. ... It's also nice to have someone who steers you in the right direction. I hope he does that."
Hasao gives off a very firm impression to Cruz, but he's stil friendly enough in his eyes. So far, he thinks Hasao is a pretty cool guy. Saves people out of comas and does afraid anything. He wouldn't mind talking to him more since he feels like they bounce off together well.
Toph Bei Fong [ Avatar: The Last Airbender ] - ""
"Eh, don't be sorry. People rely on their eyes way too much, and don't spend enough time to feel and listen to stuff around them."
Cruz has a good impression on Toph so far. She's very confident in her own abilities and doesn't even take her blindness as a weakness. In fact, she turns it into a strength. Cruz admires how she can turn a negative like that into a positive. He does think that maybe it would be cute if she actually acted like a girl every once in a while, but her tomboyness personality does have a hint of charm to making her, well, herself!
Watanuki Kimihiro[ xXxHoLic ] - ""
"IT'S NOT A SCREW-UP! IT'S AN UNFORTUNATE ACCIDENT, THAT'S ALL!"
TAKE A CHILL PILL, WATANUKI. Cruz had thought he was hard to approach at first since he was yelling and screaming about his hand stuck in a jar, but after Cruz helped him out, our favorite little trap had discovered that he's actually friendly and easy to get along with. Just when he isn't yelling at people.
Niou Masaharu [ Prince of Tennis ] - ""
"I know your type; they just lie down and take it. Pretty sad, actually."
Cruz ended up suprising himself by standing up for himself and showing Niou some actual backbone and it ended up with positive results! Niou is a pretty decent guy! Cruz wouldn't mind talking to him more in the future!
Katara [ Avatar: The Last Airbender ] - ""
"Well... if time really is frozen back home I guess we might as well do what we can while we're here."
Cruz had managed to help her out when she first came here and so far, he believes that she's pretty nice! He won't hesitate to talk with her more sometime later in the future.
Seiichi Yukimura [ Prince of Tennis ] - ""
"I'm surprised no one's done it before. If they can battle, surely they can learn to play sports."
Interesting dude who has shown that Pokemon can learn others things beyond beating the crap out of each other. Cruz is intrigued about discovering what more Pokemon can learn beyond battling and Seiichi told him that he would teach Cruz how to play tennis too sometime.
Chie Satonaka [ Persona 4 ] - ""
"Chie Satonaka, at your service! So about what level are you at?"
Another friendly and skilled trainer that had accepted his battle offer! She seems to be quite modest even though she sounds like a confident girl.
Superbi Squalo [ Katekyo Hitman Reborn ] - ""
"Wouldn't mind fighting you before I leave, either way. And I beat the gym leader today, so you'll have something to go by."
One of the trainers who accepted his offer for a battle before taking on the Violet City gym! He seems to be a pretty chill guy, although a little scary with the "VOOIIIIIIIIIII" greeting, though.
Killua Zoldyck [ Hunter X Hunter ] - ""
"Not really, how does adding San to the end of a name make it more respectful?"
Another trainer who accepted his offer for a battle before he moves onto the Violet City gym. Cruz is a little weirded out as much as he was when it came to him not knowing what honorfics were.
