Bob Pushkaboomda
From Kokorodatabase
Bob Pushkaboomda first appeared in Kokoro as the lawyer who went through every attempt to divorce Ryou and Ichigo. However, he failed to do so, therefore he lost his job and somehow ended up living at Cafe Mew Mew, where he still lives to this day, sitting in the cafe sink, eating lasagna, and watching Disney movies. He's best friends with Shimizu Arisa, dating Murahara Sakura, and is the new bishounen around who's biggest fear above all else is the fangirl mob. However, considering he had countlessly complained about wanting to be a bigger bishounen than Ryou, that is what he gets.

Lovelife
- Shimizu Arisa: Arriving in Kokoro, Bob was just a big ol' grouch, who hated the world and everybody in it (yes, I exaggerate, so what?). However, there was one person whom he soon became connected to. Arisa was the only one of the group who actually began being nice to the boy, and eventually the two became best friends. And upon watching her perform karaoke, singing along to "I Will Survive", he fell in love. However, she had always been oblivious to his feelings and didn't even realize how he had become heartbroken when she began dating Shirogane Kyr. After that incident, Bob never mentioned his feelings for her again, so no one really knows when or whether his feelings for her disappeared.
- Murahara Sakura: After the whole incident with Arisa, Bob stayed out of the whole relationship thing with everybody. But eventually, he began whining about being single, along with Murahara Sakura. Seeing these two complain about the same thing, Arisa developed the idea of setting the two up together. Though they had gotten along prior to this, once Arisa informed them of her idea, they began to grow dislike towards one another. Still, eventually, the two realized they did care about each other and eventually began to date due to their own developed feelings and not Arisa's apparent "matchmaking skills".
- Sarah Cohen: Before dating Sakura, Bob insisted that he had never had a girlfriend before in his life, but then one day, his parents appeared at the cafe for a visit, and immediately recognized Sarah Cohen, revealing that she and Bob had dated a few years back. After a moment of shock from everyone (and Ryou's complaints towards Bob stealing his childhood friend), Bob revealed that before Sarah went to America and met Ryou, she had lived in Florida for a short time with Bob and his family, before moving away shortly. However, years later, when Bob was working in Japan as a lawyer, they met once again and began "dating", although it was more of a close friendship than anything. Eventually, Sarah left again, and the two saw each other once more when Sarah showed up at the cafe. Bob learned of how she dated Ryou in the past and the two chose to keep their past relationship a secret to avoid complications. Now the two are simple friends with no romantic feelings whatsoever.
- Shirogane Ichigo: It was quite a shock when Bob admitted to having had liked Ichigo a bit back when he first moved to the cafe. At first, he couldn't stand the limitless mushyworks with her and Ryou, but did eventually find her to be cute. However, he didn't bother with these feelings because of her and Ryou being together and eventually even forgot he had liked her to begin with. Surprisingly, the two do seem to be good friends out of the cafe and have bonded countless times, even going shopping together on several occasions.
- Bubblegum Redtree: No relationship between these two had ever formed, but Arisa did reveal one day that back in the early days of Kokoro, Bob did have a slight crush on her. However, in truth, he had just thought she was cute, considering he didn't really know her, and had just said he liked her in order to hide his feelings for Arisa.

Pubo
As much as he may be in denial of the fact, Bob's a gijinka. It happened years ago due to Plum's tendency to mess with anything belonging to Ryou, when she dragged Bob down into the Shirogane lab. After messing around with things, somehow Plum accidently stuck a needle in Bob's shoulder, and before he knew it, he had transformed into a small shiny blue cat.
Although he's thankful he didn't turn into a mew, he still hates the fact that he's been categorized in with all the "magical" and "injected" people, instead of remaining a regular average human. The few times Bob has transformed into a cat, no one has ever seen the reason for the transformation, and Bob doesn't say much about it either, so the reasons for transformation is unknown. As for transforming back, apparently eating a sugary treat can help him transform back, works just as well (could it be because both are sweet, who knows?).
