Yōichi is attached to Natsume, but seems to dislike Mikan at first. Later, he becomes attached to Mikan and even kissed her on her cheek once. He eventually starts to &quot;cling&quot; to her later on in the manga. He has become very fond of Mr. Bear.    He has the Alice of summoning bad spirits, a Dangerous Ability type. He is very bright for a three-year-old. Natsume likes him since he feels that the boy is just like him and Natsume is also helping Yōichi to be transferred out of the Dangerous Ability class.    Like Mikan, he loves &quot;Fluff Puffs,&quot; (Howalon in Japanese) the best selling candy in Central Town.    During the Hana Princess arc, he accidentally ate an aging candy that he stole from Hotaru which let him gain an ability that turns him into a 13-year-old. The side effects gave him the ability to switch between younger and older self. He still has the mind of a 3-year-old when he changes his age, which makes it awkward for Mikan in some situations, because he likes hugging and carrying her.    He is the youngest member of the Dangerous Ability Class. He is a Single Star student.    He also appears in M to N no Shōzō as Eiichi Hijiri&#039;s younger brother.

Young Mikan runs away to Tokyo to follow her best friend, Hotaru, who has been enrolled in an exclusive, secretive private school for geniuses. But it turns out that Alice Academy is a lot more than meets the eye. If Mikan wants to stay by Hotaru's side, she has to both pass the strange "entrance exam" and face the even greater challenge of befriending her very odd new classmates. Whether it's Hotaru's gift for inventing gadgets, the cranky Natsume's fire-casting ability, or Professor Narumi's control of human pheromones, everyone at the school has some sort of special talent. But what ability, if any, does Mikan possess? Mikan is going to have to rely on her courage and spunk if she's going to stay in school, or even stay alive!
