I do think that he was kind of obsessed with her - he literally tried to die with her once, after he felt he wasn't able to save her, and even in the end of the light novel series, he basically says that he could go on after she killed his friends if he could save her in the end, but if he can't, there's nothing more to live for. And also the metaphors he uses for her ("Mahiru shone like the sun") shows that he was very much idolising her. I always felt that he was in love at first, but after a time his feelings were much less healthy... But I perfectly agree that he has a very strange definition of justice, and it plays a big role in both his personality and his storyline. I would conclude that his whole personality is a bit obsessive - he can get crazy over several things quite easily, including ideas, people, emotions that all in all make the character unstable.
