A new transfer student to Hakuryo High School is Jouji Gouda. He had a love-at-at-sight experience with Akane Suzumiya on the first day of class and impulsively proposed to her then and then. While the two characters frequently clash, Jouji never loses up and will stop at nothing to show Akane how much he loves her. Even while his attempts to earn Akane's love first only cause her annoyance, he slowly begins to make an impression on her and encourages her to be more open about her own emotions. There are two potential conclusions. Akane acknowledges in the happy ending that she might have love for Jouji, but she also admits that she might be using him as a rebound partner because he reminds her of her sister's ex-boyfriend. Then, he discovers a new true love in Muv-Sumika, Luv's only to experience heartbreak a minute later when she starts pursuing Takeru. In the real resolution, Jouji transforms into the hero Dimension Knight Tekkumen and battles extraterrestrials. In any case, it is claimed that he left the school to play baseball after being discovered by a team in Muv-Luv Extra, which Kouzuki speculates might have been Meiya's doing. Akane informed Jouji that she had been accepted by an American institution and would be traveling there to continue her studies at the conclusion of the later-produced Akane Maniax OVA. She continued to say that she enjoyed meeting him. Jouji was afterwards hauled away by Meiya and Tsukoyomi in their large limousine after seeing Sumika running to Takeru. This was probably organized so that Jouji could receive compensation and transfer to another school.
