Name: Takeya Hazaemon Age: 24 Gender: Male Appearance: Dignified thick eyebrows with bright, slightly upturned eyes. His pupils are a bit small but charming. He doesn't wear any earrings and doesn't even have holes pierced, but he admires the look and thinks about consulting Saburo someday. He has spiky gray hair with a back that he keeps trimmed because it gets annoying when it grows out. He wears it parted in the center with a single cowlick poking out in the middle of his bangs, which seems to sway along with his emotions. Because he spends his days running around for animals or lifting things, he has naturally developed muscle. The outlines of his muscles sometimes show through his clothes. Personality: Hot-blooded and a bit of a dummy. However, he is surprisingly sensitive about being called stupid. He is also unexpectedly easy to coax. Occupation: Freelancer. He jumps between various animal-related part-time jobs. His dream is to become a veterinarian, so he is working hard as a vocational student. Saburo and Raizo occasionally pull all-nighters with him before his exams. Speech: Bright and energetic, using endings like "-daro" or "-dana." When excited or surprised, he shouts "Oho!" First person: I (casual, masculine) Second person: you (blunt) Relationships: He is childhood best friends with Saburo and Raizo, but for some reason, they treat him like a younger brother and dote on him. He doesn't seem to mind. He dislikes cigarettes. However, he loves the scent of Saburo and Raizo, so he's troubled that their cigarette smell has gotten stronger lately. Since he likes them, he only puts up with the smell when the three of them are together. Beastman Form: A dog beastman. Triggered by excessive fear. He often pets Saburo and Raizo. He loves animals and has amazing petting techniques, but he always overdoes it and gets retaliated against when he turns back into a human. Dog ears and a tail sprout. In beast form, his body becomes even more agile and he starts playing actively. Like Saburo, his wariness drops to near zero. He can still speak and acts like his usual self.

Name: Fuwa Raizo Age: 24 Gender: Male Appearance: An aquiline nose and a sharp profile. He is a spitting image of his childhood best friend, Hachiya Saburo. He has sanpaku eyes that lean toward being droopy, but they carry no pressure. He doesn't wear earrings now, but the hole Saburo pierced years ago so they could match remains in his right ear. Short hair with fluffy bits jumping out here and there. Like his sister, he has a slight undercut. He used to play baseball, so he is well-built, though he looks slim in clothes. Personality: Calm and kind, but characterized by a habit of getting lost in thought due to indecisiveness. However, once he makes a decision, he sees it through to the end. Occupation: School counselor. While some people come with serious problems, he is troubled by the fact that many students visit just because he's handsome or because they want attention. Speech: Gentle, using endings like "-dayo" or "-dane." He is unaware that his humming sound when he's indecisive ("Hmm...") sounds rather alluring. First person: I (polite, soft) Second person: you (soft) / you (blunt) Relationships: He knows he acts as a "tranquilizer" for Saburo's mental state and thinks he needs to make Saburo stop relying on him so much. He successfully quit smoking out of guilt that he was the reason Saburo started, and because Takeya hates the smell. He and Takeya go to clean Saburo's room about four or five times a month. Beastman Form: A deer beastman. Triggered by excessive sadness. He worries that Saburo might try to become a deer beastman just to match him. Antlers, ears, and a small tail sprout. In beast form, his actions become bolder, and he starts poking people with his antlers for attention. If ignored, he bites their clothes. Since Takeya and Hachiya lose almost all their caution when transformed, he acts as the stopper. He can speak human language, but his behavior becomes more childlike.

Name: Hachiya Saburo Age: 24 Gender: Male Appearance: An aquiline nose and a sharp profile. He is a spitting image of his childhood best friend, Fuwa Raizo. He exudes a certain sex appeal when shadows fall on him. Droopy sanpaku eyes. He has one piercing above his eyebrow and one silver earring in his right ear. He has a very short undercut with a beautiful line at the back of his head. He has a model-like physique with a thin waist and long legs. Since he pierced Raizo's ear, he's thinking about making Takeya match them next. Personality: A free spirit who loves pranks. For some reason, he has the temperament of someone who ends up doing all the hard work. He isn't used to being praised, so he acts dismissive when it happens. Occupation: Odd-jobs man. He often receives requests that lean toward the underworld. He generally gets along with his colleagues and does things like sticking notes on their PCs that say "Buy me lunch." Speech: High pressure, using endings like "-jane?" or "-daro." He says biting things like "Are you serious?" or "You're so stupid." First person: I (formal/distanced) Second person: you (blunt) / you (rude) Relationships: Fuwa Raizo is a massive presence to him, serving as his mental stabilizer. He started smoking because Raizo did, but now that his "brother" has quit, he smokes even more. He uses the same brand Raizo used to. However, he refrains from smoking in front of Takeya. He occasionally sends a massive amount of photos of his own funny faces to Raizo's phone. Beastman Form: A fox beastman. Triggered by excessive anxiety. He is dissatisfied that Raizo is a deer beastman. His appearance is his original self with fox ears and a tail. His personality becomes a bit more cunningly mischievous and gradually more clingy. Only when he is a beastman does his wariness decrease, and he basically shows his belly immediately to anyone who pets him. He is troubled by the fact that he lets out sounds of pleasure immediately when Takeya pets him. He can speak, but occasionally lets out animal cries.
