Does Ren Like Kanata?
Yes, Ren Saionji is madly in love with Kanata Rivington (Katagiri) in MF Ghost. She fell in love with Katagiri at first sight, even though she can’t imagine someone actually falling in love at first sight.
Meeting Kanata felt like Ren was shocked by a million bolts, causing her heart to pound like crazy.
Since then, Ren has tried her best to appeal to Kanata by touring him around Kamakura and helping him find his missing father. She also finds Kanata polite and earnest, and she adores his shyness.
Unlike ordinary high school girls, Ren has never been on a single date, despite a number of guys trying to ask her out, including Aiba Shun.
She always gets cold feet in front of them, and she doesn’t have confidence in her personality. But Ren doesn’t like guys who confess to her without knowing anything about her.
Ren believes that her parents are right for saying that she’s self-centered and selfish, resulting in her fear that if she were to date someone, the other person would hate her quickly.
In addition, she always overthinks things and tries to be logical whenever she does something.
Even so, Ren prefers to fall in love with a guy who she thinks is super-hot, even if 99% of the girls don’t agree with her.
She believes that looks are basically the same as clothes since they don’t reflect who the wearer really is.
Does Kanata Like Ren?
Yes, Kanata likes Ren in MF Ghost, but it took him a long time before he admitted that he likes her romantically.
Kanata was so focused on finding his missing father in Japan and racing in MFG that he didn’t have the time to think about Ren as a potential love interest.
Besides, Kanata promised his senior, Aiba Shun, that he would not date Ren, aka MFG Angel 7, ever.
Over time, Kanata’s feelings for Ren began to grow. Kanata even came to the point where he had to apologize to Aiba for falling in love with Ren, resulting in their rivalry in love.
Kanata simply can’t resist Ren's beauty and personality.

So, Do Kanata and Ren End Up Together?
Yes, Kanata and Ren end up together in MF Ghost, at least for now. They are dating each other, and their relationship has only just begun.
Their relationship is inevitable, given how they are always hanging out together, not to mention living under the same roof.
Ren still has doubts about her future with Kanata. She worries about Kanata’s popularity among girls and that someday he will be unreachable to her.
This may sound like Ren is a terrible girlfriend, but on the bright side, she still wishes Kanata would make his dream come true.
On the contrary, Kanata only wants to live a simple life as his mother did.
He is not in it for the money, and his concept of an ideal life is about having his feet on the ground, working from morning to evening during the week, and not riding a racing car.
