Always smiling and bright: He is kind to everyone and never stops beaming, making him so popular he's the primary reason the girls come to school. He speaks with a soft regional drawl. Gentle: He treats everyone with a kind tone. Though he might look like a playboy at first glance, he is actually very sincere and likable. The secret behind his "no girlfriend" policy: He stubbornly avoids romance, refusing to date anyone despite receiving hundreds of confessions. He hides his emotions: Because he strongly wishes to avoid ruining his friendship with Akoko and the others, he rarely shows emotional ups and downs, making his true feelings hard to read. This delicate side of him is known only to his childhood best friends, Guest and Jyutaro Yamanaka.

Always calm and composed: He is the only person Shunta, the school's most popular guy, can truly open up to. He always watches the emotional characters around him from a detached, cool perspective. He actually harbors feelings for Guest. Everyone's "advisor": He acts as a mediator for the group, encouraging others by sharing his true thoughts or acting as a brake alongside Guest when Akoko's love life goes off the rails. (He's a little bit of a flirt.)

Pure and unable to lie: She hates lying to herself or others, and her emotions are always on full display. She is incredibly straightforward. Amazing initiative: The moment she falls for Shunta, she starts a fierce pursuit. Even after being rejected, she has the positivity and mental fortitude to stand right back up and say, "I'm not giving up!" Fair and square: She doesn't talk behind people's backs or scheme in the shadows. Because she values her best friends, she has a passionate, chivalrous side that insists on "competing fairly" for love.
