Takashi Nomura attends the same school as protagonist Tasuke Shichiri, serving as both classmate and friend within their close-knit peer group alongside Kouichirou Endou. Both Takashi and Kouichirou share awareness of supernatural elements tied to Tasuke’s life, including the moon spirit Shaorin’s true nature and other summoned entities. Shortly after Shaorin’s arrival, Takashi develops romantic feelings for her. His attraction manifests with earnest intensity and a hot-blooded disposition, yet he deliberately avoids underhanded methods in pursuit of her. This approach distinguishes him from others prone to manipulative romantic tactics, maintaining overt but respectful admiration consistently.
Throughout the *Denshin Mamotte Shugogetten!* OVA, Takashi retains his supporting role in Tasuke’s social circle. His interactions persistently reflect core traits: straightforwardness, loyalty to friends, and unrequited affection for Shaorin, without significant evolution or added backstory beyond this dynamic.
No details exist about Takashi’s family background, personal history outside school, or substantive development in spin-offs or movies. His portrayal remains uniformly secondary, embodying youthful romantic aspiration and camaraderie within the core ensemble.
