Information[]
Mamoru took Usagi, Hotaru, Chibiusa, and Luna to his upperclassman's botany garden while they were on a picnic for lunch. He was also Mimete's target for his Pure Heart Crystal.
Up in the greenhouse, Mimete looks over them and is about to release the new Daimon when she's reminded of Professor Tomoe telling her to not fail this time, Mimete found herself conflicted, Which is about when she spots Mamoru and has another crisis of loyalty. Obey her boss, or steal the hot dude’s heart?
When hail broke parts of the ceiling in the greenhouse and he went to fix them, Mimete threw a sledgehammer at the ladder, causing Kurebayashi and Hotaru to fall. She then unleashed the Daimon, U-Baulla. It grabbed him and removed his Pure Heart Crystal. After a brief battle, the Daimon was destroyed by Rainbow Moon Heartache, and Kurebayashi's crystal was returned to him.
He had a large family with six children, and his wife was shown pregnant.
