Polar opposites, Tsumugi and Hiiragi may rub off their best bits on each other, imbuing Hiiragi with the validation and confidence he seeks without having to be such a people-pleaser, while Tsumugi may gain some balance and companionship in life, not to mention some help while searching for her mother and navigating the mortal realm.
