'''Haruhiko Yoshino''' (吉野 晴彦 ''Yoshino Haruhiko'') is a self-styled "outlaw" and a classmate of [[Kotarou Tennouji|Kotarou]]'s. The other students keep their distance from him, but Kotarou finds his gag-like speech patterns hilarious. Yoshino can't stand Kotarou's flippant and manipulative behavior, wishing to settle the score by fighting.

It is implied that Yoshino actually meets Kotarou is when he has his wallet stolen by three bullies on the street. Kotarou asks the bullies to give Yoshino back his wallet, but a fight soon starts. Kotarou easily dispatches the bullies and gives Yoshino back his wallet. Yoshino is deeply impressed by Kotarou's seemingly outlaw-like lifestyle and asks him questions on how he can become a gangster. He is enraged when Kotarou explains his normal life to him and runs off, but is still grateful to him. Over the years, Yoshino grows up and befriends Kotarou and Kotori, while not realizing that Kotarou is the same person that helped him get his wallet back and inspired him to become an outlaw. Around that time, Yoshino establishes the [[Wolf Pack]] and becomes it's leader.

Yoshino can be seen trying to fight Kotarou often in the Common Route. However, most of the time Kotarou manages to brush him aside or else he forgets about having to fight him at all. He often pops in at the [[Occult Club]] room, even though he's not a member himself, and he often ends up involved in one or another of the club's activities.

Yoshino runs into Kotarou on the street when he's talking to a member of his Wolf Pack. Yoshino completely ignores Kotarou until he picks a fight with him. Yoshino is outmatched by Kotarou's sheer strength and acknowledges his victory. He learns from Kotarou that Kotori is safe and Kotarou asks him if he has a crush on Kotori, which Yoshino doesn't deny. He smiles and asks him to protect her and make her happy. Later, Yoshino attends the [[Harvest Festival]] and sees Kotori struggling to carry a blood-stained Kotarou in her shoulders. He frequently visits Kotarou while he's in the hospital.

Afterwards, as Kotarou is going around, trying to get people into Gaia's shelter, he finds Yoshino. He was trying to help out a child, and his leg got crushed, so Kotarou helps him break free and gets him closer to the shelter.
