So, I can't figure out how に対して is used in the following sentence:

俺以外の人間に対しては!

以外の means "besides", and に対して means "in regard to/against/in contrast to/etc.", right? But the way it's put together, I can't figure out how it should be translated.

Help, please? :?

This sentense has no verb, so the meaning or the function of に対して can not be fixed. More context are needed.

The subject do (don't) something to/for/against/toward/ people besides me.
という感じかな。

Yup. But I'm going to guess wildly anyway :D

So I imagine there are three people from a manga who I shall name けいこ、 けいいち and めぐみ for no particular reason.

めぐみ: leaves area.

けいこ: めぐみ先輩はやさしい人わね。
けいいち: 俺以外の人間に対しては!

keiko : Megumi's really kind isn't she?
keiichi : ... to anybody but me!

How's that? Plausible?

I suspect there are some personal reasons for the name けいこ and めぐみ...j/k:D

If you add な, it would be 100 times plausible. (100倍plausible)

Actually, that makes a lot of sense with the rest of what's being said.

Thanks a lot! :-)

Hah! I shall add "Manga Psychic" as my user title at once.

Is わね completely out? As this was from a (imagined) manga scene I was picturing けいこ as one of these exagerated お嬢様 types... :?

Sad to say, やさしい人わね is completely out.
「わね」の前に「だ」か「です」が必要です。

The followings are all ok;
やさしい人ね
やさしい人だね
やさしい人ですね
やさしい人だわね
やさしい人ですわね
やさしい人でございますわね=>漫画的exagerated お嬢様(奥さま) type :D

Hmm I guess the few 人わね hits I got should have been 人はね ...
