Description
Personality
Kyōichi Saionji is a temperamental and egotistical young man, prone to rage and cruelty. His insecurities fuel his lack of self-control, particularly in his lifelong rivalry with Touga Kiryuu. He displays an obsessive, controlling desire for Anthy Himemiya, viewing her as a possession rather than a person. His actions are often driven by a need to prove himself superior, stemming from his feelings of inadequacy compared to Touga. While initially presented as a purely antagonistic figure, hints of vulnerability and a complex relationship with Touga emerge later in the series, suggesting a more nuanced personality than initially apparent. The movie version exaggerates his negative traits, portraying him as even more volatile and self-absorbed. His relationship with Anthy is more abusive, and his connection to Touga is largely absent. This highlights the variability in his portrayal across different adaptations.
