Sugaya is a well-meaning and easy-going person who's also very creative. He has a love and talent for art and has a calm demeanor. He enjoys being in Class E because he isn't taunted for his drawings. During his 2nd year, he was treated as a delinquent by teachers because his "needless" artistic tendencies ended up making him stand out too much. In the end, because of his art and his low grades, he was dropped to Class E.
