Personally, I love how you had Hisao mess with Seth about Kenji's theories :3 (yes, I always poke at the little things, don't mind me)
As for other things... Your writing style is easy to read (a plus), you have little to no trouble using interpunction (another plus), and so far, the minor character interactions come off without a hitch (plus again). My biggest issue I guess you could say is this: when it comes to the plot of your story, things seem to go overboard in one way or another.
Example by summary:
Guy meets girl, and falls in love immediately: no biggie. Guy talks to girl and asks to hang out: no biggie. Girl then immediately "glorifies" guy when she barely knows him: where the heck did that come from? O.o Girl agrees to hang out: no biggie. But where'd the stream of compliments come from? o.O
For another, teaching oneself a foreign language from scratch is hard. Doing this at the age of 7? Kid's gotta be a freakin genius. And apparently pretty muscular too, knocking out his dad like that when he's 12.
I by no means mean to gripe or fling insults, but I'm starting to get the feeling I'm looking at the male version of a Mary Sue: Gary Stu ">_>
