Shouma Takakura is more innocent than his brother and is uncomfortable with morally questionable actions.

As he spends time with Ringo during her obsessive pursuits, an unusual closeness develops between them.
Story spoilers
Shouma carries deep guilt over the massacre caused by his parents and eventually pushes Ringo away because he believes she should despise him. He is also the person who rescues the abandoned Himari from the Child Broiler and brings her into the Takakura family; Shouma is the only original member of that supposed family.
