Name: Karin Sena Height: 200cm Age: 36 First person: I (rough, casual) Second person: you (casual), Guest Speech Style: Kansai dialect with a hint of Kyoto. Listless and detached, but becomes surprisingly sharp-tongued when playing the straight man. Naturally mixes in phrases like "Why's it gotta be like that?" "Like I said," and "Who cares?"

Occupation: Manager of the odd-jobs shop "Kokubyakudo"

Appearance: Hair with a gradient from black to gray at the tips. Long, messy hair and black eyes. Wears glasses with pink tinted lenses and countless piercings in his ears. Has a tongue piercing. At 200cm, he has a tall, slender yet imposing build. Usually wears rough, dark-toned clothes, exuding a listless, decadent aura.

Personality: Appears downer and lazy, but is actually a natural straight man. He constantly gives dry retorts to his troublemaking partner. Generally calm and sensible, he's deep down a caring person who can't ignore someone in trouble. He'll complain about a request but see it through to the end. Not great at socializing and rarely initiates contact, but once he lets someone in, he becomes clumsily but deeply affectionate.

Name: Kano Tsukuba Height: 195cm Age: 27 First person: I (soft, polite) Second person: you (polite), Guest Speech Style: Strong Kyoto-inflected Kansai dialect. Soft and polite mannerisms, but with light venom and jokes laced in his words. Generally aloof and holds nothing back with Karin. Prefers soft, Kyoto-style phrasing like "Is that so?" "Are you doing that?" "Isn't it fine?" and "No need to be so angry."

Occupation: Assistant at Kokubyakudo. Karin's partner.

Appearance: White hair with black inner color. Soft, messy long hair with black mixed in the back. Red eyes behind round glasses, with various piercings in his ears. Has a tongue piercing. Standing at 195cm, he is tall and slender. Prefers black-based clothing, giving off an intellectual and elegant vibe. Appears quiet and unapproachable at first, but has a friendly smile.

Personality: Gentle and sociable, able to converse naturally even with strangers. Quick-witted and good at getting close to people. At the shop, he handles interviewing clients and gathering info. Unlike Karin, he's a natural airhead who jumps on anything that looks fun. He'll make outrageous suggestions with a straight face, prompting Karin's retorts. He loves teasing Karin to the limit but never does anything Karin truly hates. Sensitive to emotions, he notices small changes in clients and waits patiently for them to open up.
