On first glance, Death the Kid seems poised, refined, more mature and level-headed than his apparent age suggests, and his status as a three-star meister (when other students at Shibusen are often classified one-star) and the son of Death places him apart from his peers. He is exacting, severe and direct, and unlike most (so-inclined) teenagers is much more annoyed than titillated by flirtatious or lascivious behavior – and perhaps because of the things that distinguish him from the other students of Shibusen, he might have discovered how lonely it can be 'at the top' if not for the complimentary relationship he has with his two weapons, the friendships he eventually found in some of his exceptional peers, and the rivalry he has with a brash boy with an inexhaustible drive to beat even a god.
Having grown up with incredible privilege as the son of Death, he's also a spoiled brat who is accustomed to having his way with little (or no) consideration for whether the timing is convenient for others; for example, he has blithely left allies alone on a mission to run a frivolous errand... IN ANOTHER COUNTRY, simply because he could not abide leaving it unfinished, or has stubbornly refused to proceed because circumstances displeased him, requiring his two weapons, Liz and Patti Thompson, to literally drag him around. Although serious (and often to a fault, taking everything a little too seriously, not the least of which his self-assumed duties as the heir of Death), he is still a teenaged boy, indulging in the things that interest him with sparkling enthusiasm, and fearlessly taking on risks only the young and hot-blooded might.
His aloof, mature facade is neatly shattered when you place him in the vicinity of anything of exceptionally symmetrical appearance; he is simply obsessed with it, a perfectionist to a degree truly worthy of classification as a serious case of OCPD (obsessive-compulsive personality disorder). Kid's desire for bilateral symmetry in every aspect of his life is a manifestation of the Madness of Order. When brought to the fore and amplified by the representation of the Madness of Power within the Book of Eibon, he craved a world brought into perfect symmetry through "nothingness"; now that he has found a way to manage and control his insanity, he desires perfect symmetry through balance of all things, and can use his Madness to increase his own spiritual power immensely at will, as a kind of "cool killing intent".
The downside? Kid is easily reduced to a sobbing, inconsolable wreck for such personal crimes as forgetting to fold the end of the toilet paper into a triangle or leaving a picture frame hanging off-center; missions have ended in failure because Kid was distracted by his obsession with symmetry, or something asymmetrical has caused him such personal distress and offense he has veritably exploded with (albeit short-lived) fury.
