Kasumi Kageyama

Kasumi Kageyama  (影山 霞 Kageyama Kasumi) is a student of the Day Class at Cross Academy and the president of Yuki's class.

Appearance
He has dark brown hair and wears glasses. He wears his uniform properly.

Personality
Kasumi seems to be a very strict and orderly person who would do anything to get what he needs out of life. He can be rather dramatic, shown when he agitatedly called Yuki out on her poor grades and became flustered around Ruka.

History
Not much is known about him. He has been attending Cross Academy long enough to become familiar with Yuki and several other students.

Plot
He is in love with Ruka Souen and shows it to her, but Ruka has no interest in him. During St. Xocolotls day, he tried to give Ruka some chocolates, which she had no choice but to accept. At the social ball, he had asked Ruka to dance with him but she denied his request, saying that she did not want to dance with someone she doesn't know. When Ichiru arrived at the academy, the president was told to take care of him. He is also quite easy to be/feel flattered such as when Ichiru Kiryu praised him in Vampire Knight Guilty.

In the manga, Kasumi is one of the remaining students of the day class that remembers about the night class' secret and the events which took place in the Rido Kuran Arc. His mind was original erased, but he regained his memories after seeing Ruka (which reminded him of his love for her).

He is also shown in Memories, working alongside Sayori in parliament as a Government Official.

Ruka Souen
He had strong feelings for Ruka which she did not return. After his memory was erased he had no knowledge of her existence until she returned to the Academy for Kaname. When he laid eyes on her he remembered her because of his feelings for her.
