Kaito's been kind of weird lately (well, he's been weird all throughout, but since teaming up with Gaim, it's a different kind of weird). He's the guy who goes by the power philosophy, and yet he's the same guy that would step out of the way to let Kouta do his thing.
Maybe it's just me, but it feels like someone who believes in absolute power and grabbing it for yourself would be the one who aggressively pursues the kill, but most of the time he leaves Kouta to do the finishing. He's usually content with using his finishers that are mostly strategic tools to hinder the enemy.
Strategically sound, but it keeps up the idea, to me, that his philosophy is a parody.
