Description
Kazuya Yanagiba is a third-year student at Hanazono Academy, where he serves as the captain and ace striker of the soccer club. He is well-known throughout the school for his good looks, which include blonde hair and brown eyes, as well as his athleticism and polite demeanor. This combination of traits has made him extremely popular among the female students, who often go to great lengths to gain his attention. Despite this admiration, he remains largely oblivious to their attempts.
His true identity is that of Limone, a powerful senior angel sent by the goddess Aphrodite to watch over the Love Angels and protect the human world from devils. As an angel, he serves as a guide and advisor, often appearing to assist Momoko and the other Love Angels when they find themselves in danger during battles. This dual existence means that while in his human form as Kazuya Yanagiba, he typically has no memory of his angelic duties or the Love Angels, a concealment that helps him evade detection by their enemies.
Personality-wise, both his human and angel forms are characterized by a respectful and unselfish nature. He is portrayed as cool-headed and dignified, yet he cares deeply for those he is sworn to protect. His motivations are rooted in his duty as an angel to combat evil and safeguard love, as well as a personal, enduring connection to one of the Love Angels.
One hundred years prior to the main events of the story, in the Angel World, Limone and the angel Lily fell in love during a war between angels and devils. In the present day, Angel Lily is the reincarnation of the girl he loved, now living as Yuri Tanima. Upon remembering their past relationship, a romantic bond develops between Kazuya and Yuri, and they become a couple. This relationship is a central aspect of his character, and he recognizes Yuri as his true destined lover.
Throughout the story, Kazuya's role evolves from a mysterious helper who appears on a staircase of light to a more active participant in the final battles. A significant moment in his development occurs during a fight with a powerful devil named Petora, where he is caught in a destructive vortex and seemingly dies. Although the goddess Aphrodite saves him, the trauma causes him to lose all his memories of being Angel Limone, including his relationship with Yuri. Later, his angelic memories are restored, allowing him to help the Love Angels in their decisive final confrontation against the devil queen Raindevila. Following the conclusion of the war, he expresses a wish to continue his life on Earth as the human Kazuya Yanagiba, a request that Aphrodite grants.
As an angel, Kazuya possesses several notable abilities. He is capable of transforming between his human identity and his angelic form, Angel Limone. In this form, he wields a sword in battle and can use protective magic, such as a shield skill, to defend himself and others. His loyalty and sense of responsibility are such that he has been known to take the poison or evil waves from others into his own body to save them, even at great risk to himself.
