The two first met when Momo intervened in the middle of Okarun's bullying session. She sat in the chair adjacent to him, scaring and surprising the bullies. She left afterwards, with Okarun giving chase. He thought she was into aliens too, just like him, because of her willingness to talk to him. Momo, still reeling from an earlier break up, shut him down. Feeling terrible, she quickly apologized while mentioning her own fascinations with spirits. Okarun ridiculed her fixation, to which Momo responds by bringing up the fact that her grandmother is a medium. This led to the two on a dare; Okarun would visit a haunted tunnel, in exchange for Momo exploring an empty hospital, in order for them to prove their respective belief were nothing but a sham.
Both arrived at their own destinations, while still arguing about whether spirits or UAPs (unidentified aerial phenomena) were real, via phone call. Their conversation was interrupted by Okarun stumbling upon an old spirit who later said something inappropriate to Okarun and then accosted him down. Meanwhile, Momo encountered three identical aliens, who kidnapped her and planned to repopulate their species with her.
Before any bodily harm could be done on Momo, Okarun called her. His possession by the prior spirit - dubbed as Turbo Granny - was able to come out of Momo's phone and get in the alien ship where Turbo Granny immediately attacked on sight. With difficulty, Okarun was able to take control of his body back and use a bit of his newfound power to take down two of the aliens. However, the third one managed to pin him down using some form of telekinesis. Okarun pleaded with the aliens to release Momo, even if he have to sacrifice himself; all his life, he is being bullied by his peers for wishing to meet one, and was very happy that someone like her is willing to converse with him.
Momo, remembering an old technique her grandmother taught, practiced it to devastating effect. She blew the aliens away, and deterred the Turbo Granny, but not before the latter snatched Okarun's family jewels. In the aftermath, both believed in the existence of aliens and spirits. Okarun chose to not involve Momo any further, but she persisted, stating it would be dangerous if he dealt with it alone. She was caught off-guard when Okarun muttered a familiar line once said by her celebrity crush, Ken Takakura. As she asked his real name, Okarun revealed that his name is none other than Ken Takakura too!

- Despite the fact that Okarun had always wished to meet aliens ever since he was little, along with the fact that he had been a victim of bulling ever since he was little as well, which was where Little Okarun was able to take a interest with reading about conspiracy theories which only made the bulling slightly worse yet when he saw the situation the aliens had putted Momo in, he started insulting the aliens by saying how he waited for years to meet them (as in aliens in general) only for them to hurt the only person (Momo) who was nice to him and the first ever person that he could call a friend.
- Ch 159, Okarun was not letting go off Momo's hand when she was telling him to let go. He kept holding her hand and told her that he loves her and doesn't want to be separated again from her.
Fanon[]
This section is in need of major improvement. Please help improve this article by editing it.
Momokarun is the most popular pairing for both characters, as well as the series. This could be attributed to the fact that their relationship served as one of the main sub-plot. Fans also liked that both characters had their own personalities and goals, and the healthy progression of their relationship. Despite challenges from the love rivals, such as Jiji for Okarun, and Aira for Momo, the two remained devoted to each other.
Fans like to draw a parallel of the two with WakaMarin[1] since both follow the dynamic/trope of a popular and pretty gyaru girl ending up with the quiet dorky guy where ironically just so happens that the popular girl is also a dork.

Trivia[]
- Much to Momo Ayase's dismay, Ken shares the same name with the late Japanese actor, Ken Takakura.
- As stated, since his actual name is Ken Takakura, he is nicknamed as "Okarun" by Momo because of her feelings towards the actual actor.
- When Momo was changing out of Okarun's clothes, she had an Ken Takakura poster then after a point in time she changed it to an alien standing below a UFO poster.
- The ship name “FlatYokai” is a reference to the infamous Flat Earth Conspiracy theory and Yōkai Ghosts, it also shares the same name to a InuYasha character[2]
- The ship name “President Doppelganger” is a reference to the various conspiracy theories involving Presidents of the USA, the president part is also a reference to when Okarun shows Momo a page in his book and it has a picture of Barack Obama (while the anime changes it from Obama to a random generic picture of a US President) while the Doppelgänger part is a reference to a ghostly double of a living person, especially one that haunts its own fleshly counterpart.
- Which when combined can also be an reference to countless Doppelganger President conspiracy theories.
