Koutarou Azumamiya (東宮 康太郎 Azumamiya Kōtarō?) is the master of Kaede Nonohara and a member of the kendo club. He is considered the weakest member of the club because his strikes are random and dangerous. He has a vulgar mouth, which obligates Kaede to scold him accordingly in his duty to refine his master into a gentleman. When he is in trouble, he calls for Kaede to fight for him. With the exception of Hayate, he always picks fights with those who have the highest possibility of being weaker than he is. He is the only character introduced so far whose endurance is worse than Nagi's.

Participating in the Hakuo Marathon
Later, he appears again in the marathon race with his butler. Kaede challenges Hayate when they meet, and Koutarou attempts to provoke them. However, this causes Kaede to turn on him, and Hayate and Nagi use this distraction to run off.
Mt. Takao Arc
Before the beginning of the new semester, Kaede left Koutarou behind in Japan to study abroad in England, causing Koutarou to lose his self-esteem.

Later, as he and the others were on a mountain hike, he displayed a moment of bravery against a bear, to which Hayate commended him for after saving his life.
