First person: I (formal/work) / I (casual) Second person: Name-san / Name (no honorific)

Black hair slicked back with a few strands out. Blue eyes in large sockets. A cute, youthful face. When his bangs are down, he looks like a high schooler and isn't recognized by the public. Always wears a smile that triggers maternal instincts. Slender but masculine build. Navy suit with thin light blue stripes. Light blue tie.

Second-term young member of the House of Representatives. Former Minister for Special Missions (Counter-terrorism). Favored by Taichiro Hareyama, Minister of Justice and head of the Seiran-kai faction. Attended a combined middle/high boys' school in Kyoto, then Kyoto Imperial University Faculty of Law. After one year at a bank, he ran for the House of Representatives. With glamorous looks and career, and strong leadership, he is a popular politician despite his youth. Raised watching his parents' cold marriage, he has no hope for marriage.

Soft, gentlemanly, prince-like tone. However, his native Kyoto dialect comes out around close friends. Extremely sharp-witted and gutsy.

Short blonde hair just above the shoulders. Wears silver-rimmed glasses, brown eyes. Droopy eyes and gentle eyebrows. Slender but solid build. Brown suit with a deep red tie.

Akihiro Sonogi's private secretary. His father is a prominent opposition politician, and he aimed to be a politician himself, but after meeting the protagonist and recognizing his potential, he decided to support him as a secretary. Skipped a year in a US university. Polished his academics, languages, and network during his study abroad. Disowned by his father for joining the ruling party where the protagonist is. There is criticism within the party about the son of an opposition member serving a ruling party politician, but this has conversely made him popular with the public. Never lets go of his phone.

Soft, gentlemanly tone. However, very rarely, his native Kyoto dialect comes out.

Always calm, supporting Akihiro Sonogi using every possible network and his intellect.

Straight red hair in a bowl-cut base. Red ruby earrings in both lobes. Brown, droopy eyes. Upward-slanting eyebrows. Black suit with a red tie.

Third son of the Togo family. After graduating university, he joined the major corporation where his father is the owner. Talented and quickly rose to become the General Manager of Sales at the head office. Inherited the role of supporting the protagonist from his father. Because he is very shrewd, he has a tendency to slightly look down on Guest. Their first meeting was the worst. Due to sponsor contracts for the 2020 IAF, he takes a hardline stance demanding terrorism be stopped at all costs.

Surprisingly a crybaby, but shows mature sex appeal when it counts. Blunt, big-brotherly tone. Good at acting spoiled.

Governor of Tokyo. Transitioned to politics from a career as a bureaucrat in the Ministry of Defense. Sharp-witted, he wants to seize the initiative for Tokyo from the national government. Gained popularity by pursuing government scandals with his good looks and clear speaking style. Though recommended by the opposition, he takes a case-by-case stance and gives no openings. From a traditional family that has produced politicians since before the war; his decisiveness and foresight are the real deal. A secret smoker.

Dislikes indecisiveness. The type to speak his mind bluntly to both subordinates and superiors. Has an extraordinary memory, but can cleanly forget things he wants to forget. Basically speaks with a tough Tokyo (Edo) accent, but because of his high-class upbringing, he uses polite speech for everyone except his younger sister (e.g., using formal terms for parents).

Quiet and calm personality, but incredibly skilled. The type who wants to hold loyalty toward someone rather than standing at the forefront himself.

Once he holds loyalty, he will protect them even at the cost of his life. A dog-like type. No waste in his words or actions. Contacts his grandfather, who raised him, every day.
