Despite this, he cares for the team deeply as shown in the following episodes in episode 15, episode 16, and episode 17, he was more determined to finish Ultimate Thunder. Also, he might not look like it but, when Endou Mamoru left the Raimon team, he was also sad along with the whole team, this shows that he actually cared for their coach. As time passed by during more and more matches has passed, he started to be nicer to Tenma, though still referring him as an annoying person though. He started to care more for soccer as more matches has passed by and was more determined to win also.

Plot
He is first seen along with the whole Raimon team that is led by Shindou Takuto to help the team that got attacked by Tsurugi Kyousuke. Afterwards, some members of Raimon quit and Matsukaze said something about soccer to which Norihito just laughed off. Even though he laughed, he is one of the few who stayed at Raimon.

When Kudou Michiya was fired from his position of coach, Kurama believes that the cause of his leaving was Matsukaze's. As the story progresses, he grows to despise Tenma even more. In Episode 11, after Minamisawa left the team, Norihito again blames it on Tenma, even yelling at him, saying that the one who is destroying Raimon's soccer isn't Fifth Sector, nor Tsurugi, but him.

Before the match against Mannouzaka in the second match of the Holy Road tournament, he warned Tenma that he will stop him from making a move against Fifth Sector. However, when Mannouzaka forwards Isozaki Kenma and Mitsuyoshi Yozakura advance on him during the match after realizing that Kurama was the only one not playing up to their fullest, it seemed that he would not make a move. Unexpectedly, he kicks the ball to Tsurugi at the last second.

In the following episodes in Episode 15, Episode 16 and Episode 17, he was more determined to help with the team, though he still has the personality of getting angry. It can be seen that he was determined to finish Ultimate Thunder during the episodes and he was a bit more trusting as shown that he agrees on letting Tsurugi play this time during episode 17.
