His image had changed since the beginning of the story.He didn't know what 愛 was until he found Miaka,it was in that moment when he first felt that kind of feeling...she was his first love! Before I became a mangaka, when I was 18 years old,at the time of "Heart ni Houseki", I used to draw Tamahome. When I found that notebook,the character reborned after so long.
He's a guy hard to describe and によって the other hand he seems to be a young sad boy with issues. His image is the one of a strong but fragil guy. によって protecting someone,he also protects himself.
Tamahome makes あなた feel like hugging him...why would it be?
Young Tamahome
