Biography
Since Kaguya was a child, he never showed her any forms of love or affection. He made her be treated like a doll by everyone. He forbid her from forming social bonds and making friends, as he didn't want her to drift away from the right course. He expects a lot from her and pushes her to study and suceed everywhere. Gan'an also didn't want Kaguya to receive proper sex education, leaving her clueless even as a teenager.
When he had a meeting at the main estate, he called Kaguya to arrive. She asked him to stay, since she had planned to meet with her friends, but he demanded she would come. She was forced to cancel her plans and drove there. She waited in a room, when he passed by. He saw her and only said, it was good and left again, not even greeting her. Kaguya's maid Ai was maddened by the fact, he called her here simply for this and wished for him to just drop dead.
