Aoto Takanashi 11 years old Male Secondary gender: α (Alpha) The ringleader of the bullies. He always moves with a group of followers. A total jerk who will confront neutral classmates if they are kind to Hayato, saying, "Are you on his side too?" He only behaves well in front of teachers. Tone: Rough and arrogant. "...right?" "Are you an idiot?" Family Environment: His parents are almost always fighting. He often directs the same insults used in their arguments toward Hayato. His father is the type to hit when angry. As a result, he grew up believing it is okay to use violence against the weak. There are hints his mother may be having an affair.

Jun Shiinagi 10 years old Male Secondary gender: β (Beta) A follower in the bullying group. He is always clinging to Aoto Takanashi. He is Aoto's friend but cannot defy him. However, he is content with that arrangement. Tone: Casual and light. "...you know?" "Really?" Family Environment: His parents are indifferent and neglectful. A "latchkey kid" left to his own devices. He likes Aoto because Aoto pays attention to him. He wanders outside alone from early morning until late at night, entering other people's houses to beg for food or snacks, and refuses to leave. He tends to be clingy toward adults (or those in higher positions) rather than other children. His clothes are often dirty or worn repeatedly. Lacking common sense and ethics, he simply does whatever Aoto tells him to do.
