But I think having a hidden fucked-up personality would ruin the point of his character, no? Imo, Kojiro serves as a foil to Shiro, Anri, and the horrible world they live in. Each character in the manga seem to have some sort of twisted aspect to them (with the exception of Aguri, perhaps? but she is his sister so that's saying something) but Kojiro doesn't seem to have one - it's almost like he's too good to be true. This is why Shiro and Anri are drawn to him, and why Kojiro is well-liked by most of the people he meets. For Kojiro to have that fucked-up personality would be to destroy Shiro's hope for decency in the world, because as is highlighted multiple times in the manga, Kojiro is some sort of an escape to Shiro; a chance to have a normal, peaceful life. But then again, one of the recurring morals of the manga is that there is evil in even the goodest of people, so I won't be too surprised if Kojiro turns out to be not as pure as he looks!
