Initially unsure about pursuing a relationship with Colin, Frenchie gets encouragement from Kimiko (Karen Fukuhara), who wants him to be happy. She assures him not to let their friendship stand in the way.

In Season 3, Kimiko describes her and Frenchie's kiss as "weird," which he agrees with, emphasizing they are more like family. They agree their bond won't turn romantic.
