Asuta is Hazumu's best male buddy before and after the UFO crash, though his opinion of Hazumu changes somewhat due to his taking interest in Hazumu's new female form and feminine personality. Asuta is a good deal more manly than Hazumu ever was, and was trying to find Hazumu to give him some adult magazines (which Hazumu hates) on the night of the Mt. Kashima incident as an attempt to try to console him for getting turned down by Yasuna. Asuta has found himself more and more attracted to Hazumu after the transformation, leaving Hazumu completely oblivious of this fact. Eventually, Asuta resolves to simply being Hazumu's best male friend and sees that her main interest is indeed with Yasuna.
