** '''[[Benihime Asano|<span style="color:white;text-decoration:underline;">Benihime Asano</span>]]''' - Kyo first noticed her fascination with him-- and her hatred for Miwa Saitou-- in his Midnight Channel dungeon, where she was entirely sympathetic to him, and spiteful to all others around them. Since then, he has cultivated her adoration of him, readily using her willingness to do anything he asks her to.

** '''[[Mitsuru Kirijo|<span style="color:white;text-decoration:underline;">Mitsuru Kirijo</span>]]''' - Kyo hated Mitsuru, at first. Then, he MET Mitsuru, and their Personas (Achilles and Penthesilea) resonated. Hatred faded into a sort of disturbed obsession, and then into the desire to possess her. He has assaulted her several times already towards this end. Ever since his imprisonment in Kirijo Labs, Mitsuru has tried to teach and reform him. He knows what she is trying to do, and finds it a fun game to string her idealism along.

** '''[[Akatsuki Enda|<span style="color:white;text-decoration:underline;">Akatsuki Enda</span>]]''' - Kyo has slowly and torturously grown away from his singular obsession with his brother: albeit at the cost of others becoming the object of his obsessiveness instead. The growing-apart of the twins was hastened by Akatsuki's behavior in not only wishing his brother dead, but in doing his twin the ultimate insult: trying to kill himself, not only to escape Kyo, but to force Kyo to kill himself as well in turn. Disgusted with his brother's betrayal and apparent weakness, Kyo has disowned his twin.

** '''[[Shinjiro Aragaki|<span style="color:white;text-decoration:underline;">EELS</span>]]'''

** '''[[Rena Kinukasa|<span style="color:white;text-decoration:underline;">Rena Kinukasa</span>]]''' - A childhood friend and ex-girlfriend. Rena was one of the first to whom Kyo showed his sociopathic nature, and he interpreted her reaction of horror, inability to accept it, and ultimate leaving of him as the worst kind of betrayal. For a while, she had his permanent enmity, especially when she tried to kidnap Akatsuki. The more he's seen of her Shadow-Possessed self, however, the more he believes she has -improved- from the weak victim she once was. He certainly won't be above manipulating her into believing it's better to be Shadow-Possessed, if only to spite Tatsuya's efforts to 'save' her.

** '''[[Izo Imaizumi|<span style="color:white;text-decoration:underline;">Izo Imaizumi</span>]]''' - There is no one Kyo finds more entertaining to drive to the brink-- whether through taunts, or the simple assailing of Izo's logic. And his hatred of Izo has only worsened ever since he realized Yisa has a lingering regard for him.

** '''[[Thora Kobayashi|<span style="color:white;text-decoration:underline;">Thora Kobayashi</span>]]''' - Kyo thinks of Thora as little better than a dog that has yet to be put down, and frequently taunts her with the fact that they are similar-- except for the one crucial fact that Kyo has the intelligence to control and temper his brutal animalistic nature.

** '''[[Masahiko Irie|<span style="color:white;text-decoration:underline;">Masahiko Irie</span>]]''' - What a mouthy douchebag. Kyo believes Masahiko to be borderline delusional in his high opinion of himself.

** '''[[Tohya Kidzuki|<span style="color:white;text-decoration:underline;">Tohya Kidzuki</span>]]''' - The hatred has historically run deep between Kyo and Tohya. He may now, however, see an avenue to reduce her enmity-- and take advantage of the lowered guard.

** '''[[Seiichi Miyamoto|<span style="color:white;text-decoration:underline;">Seiichi Miyamoto</span>]]''' - Whatever dealings they might have had in the past are dust now. They fell apart when Seiichi recanted his own malignant ways. Mitsuru was protected from Kyo by Seiichi several times. This was grounds for Kyo to declare war on the pianist, going so far as to twist [[Akari Hoshi|<span style="color:white;">Akari Hoshi</span>]]-- a little-sister figure of Seiichi-- to turn on him. Following an attempt on Kyo's life by Seiichi, Kyo tore out Seiichi's left eye with a knife.

** '''[[Miwa Saitou|<span style="color:white;text-decoration:underline;">Miwa Saitou</span>]]''' - Kyo's ex-girlfriend. Unfortunately, ever since Yisa intimated to him that Miwa had never loved the TRUE him-- only an image she had created of what she wanted him to be-- what lingering feelings he has are mingling with his growing resentment for what he perceives as Miwa's 'years of leading him on.' Making matters worse, Kyo has entirely replaced Miwa with Yisa as the subject of his affections.

** '''[[Naomi Suzuno|<span style="color:white;text-decoration:underline;">Naomi Suzuno</span>]]''' - Kyo recognizes Naomi as perhaps one of his more dangerous opponents, primarily due to her sheer unflappability. Though his irrationality and twisted logic have kept her at bay for a long time, she has begun to try and pry apart his insanity in an attempt to know and predict him. Her eternal pride and defiance clash harshly with his need to control and dominate, making her consistently rise to his challenges and fight his demands. When her Shadow took her captive, Kyo served both as Naomi's jailor and unexpected protector.  

** '''[[Daisuke Itami|<span style="color:white;text-decoration:underline;">Daisuke Itami</span>]]''': THE WORST EVER. A sort of mentor figure, whose influences have at times nudged Kyo into some decision or another.

** '''[[Mariko Ohmukai|<span style="color:white;text-decoration:underline;">Mariko Ohmukai</span>]]''' - Once regarding her as an amusing, if pathetic, plaything-- perhaps even a pet project to drag out of drug-induced weakness and into the makings of a killer-- Kyo has soured on Mariko ever since she stabbed him in the back in an attempt to impress Izo. He tore out her throat in reprisal.

** '''[[Mikiya Ryouhara|<span style="color:white;text-decoration:underline;">Mikiya Ryouhara</span>]]''' - Mikiya's status as 'a rabid hater of all things Shadow,' and Kyo's status as 'basically a Shadow,' means these two are destined to FITE FOREVER

** '''[[Mai Namikawa|<span style="color:white;text-decoration:underline;">Mai Namikawa</span>]]''' - Kyo attacked her once he became aware she and Naomi were close. Since then, Mai has just kept on piling on the reasons for him to hate her: foremost among them being her loving story to him, while he was stuck in a Kirijo cell, of how Miwa would abandon him to make a family with some other man.

** '''[[Akari Hoshi|<span style="color:white;text-decoration:underline;">Akari Hoshi</span>]]''' - Similar to Mai, Kyo targeted Akari as a known 'valued friend' of someone he hates even more: Seiichi Miyamoto. Her naive, trusting, and gullible nature has proven useful on multiple occasions, the most recent-- and potent-- of which was his Stockholming of her subsequent to her belief that she had lost Tatsuya Sudou. Training her to love him, he immediately turned her on [[Seiichi Miyamoto|<span style="color:white;">Seiichi Miyamoto</span>]]. She's gone back to Seiichi since, as she didn't take Kyo's maiming of the pianist too well.

** '''[[Tatsuya Suou|<span style="color:white;text-decoration:underline;">Tatsuya Suou</span>]]''' - Tatsuya sees right through Kyo's idealized facade to the dangerous, sociopathic truth. This irritates Kyo immensely; not to mention the fact that Tatsuya bluntly stated that he'd take Miwa away from Kyo 'for her safety.' Now that Tatsuya's actually followed through and DONE it-- leaving a scar behind on Kyo's chest, where his attack cut deeply-- Kyo has decided to hurt Tatsuya in any way possible, and to undermine any of his efforts he can. In many ways Kyo has evolved into an inverted mirror of Suou. The vicious hatred between them is completely mutual.

** '''[[Tatsuya Sudou|<span style="color:white;text-decoration:underline;">Tatsuya Sudou</span>]]''' - Kyo started out largely neutral on Sudou, as an individual who has done him a favor or two and whose goals don't immediately interfere with-- and perhaps even further-- Kyo's own. His indifference turned to enmity once Sudou harmed Yisa, leading Kyo to attempt to kill Sudou in reprisal: causing a good amount of psychological trauma in the process.

** None.
