Len is in the Music department and is in Year 2, Class A. He is quiet and cold towards everyone, including his own parents, to an extent. Later, he warms up to Kahoko and eventually gives her advice on how to hold and play the violin properly.
He is a violin virtuoso. Born in a family of musicians, Len felt overshadowed by his parents' music and strives for perfection in his music. He holds a high standard and demands the best from himself and from others. Len's father is a well-known violinist and his mother is a famous pianist called Misa Hamai. He is fluent in both English and German. In one of the chapters, it has been shown that Len knows how to play the piano.
Len didn't believe that music was enjoyable, though after spending some time with Kahoko, he slowly began to enjoy music. With this, his music changed and even his mother has noticed the change that was influenced by Kahoko.
Others may think that he acts harshly towards her, but deep down in his heart, he is concerned about her although he does not show it. As the series progresses, he realizes his feelings of love for Kahoko. It becomes more obvious in the more recent chapters of the manga; for instance, while everyone else knows that he is leaving to study in Europe, he finds it the hardest to tell this to Kahoko, and he doesn't really understand why. Instead, he claims that his leaving has nothing to do with her.
It takes Ryōtaro, who tells Len that he (Ryōtaro) likes Kahoko, to make him open his heart and acknowledge certain things regarding her. It's also seen that it is only around her that he blushes furiously later on in the series - for instance, when she held his hands, and when he walked her home. In chapter 63 of the manga, he becomes fully aware of his feelings when he thinks "My feelings for you...if it is expressed in words, then it is Love."
In chapter 63, (titled : Ave Maria) Len finally realizes his true feelings for Kahoko. It seems that his feelings were confusing for him for a long time, but then he realizes that his feelings for her were "love". In chapter 65, Len was encouraged by Kahoko to go see Tsuchiura's performance. Before the concert, Len was depicted to only stare at Kahoko during that time. Yunoki told him that was too obvious.
Yunoki also found out Tsukimori has feelings for Hino. The time Tsukimori didn't want to tell Hino that he was going to leave in a week, Tsuchiura was so angry because Len was being cruel to Hino. Len told him that even though he confessed to her, it would not change her performance during the contest.
In Chapter 67, he hugs Kahoko and tells her that he will be leaving for his trip the next day, which happened to be the day of her performance. In Chapter 69, as Tsukimori was about to leave for his trip, Tsuchiura looked for to convince him to watch Hino's performance. Tsukimori then buys flowers for Hino, but does not stay to the end to see her after her performance. She runs out of the hall to find Tsukimori. He is currently studying in Vienna.
In Kiniro no Corda game, he can see Lili, the Fata.
