Akito Kosaka A 22-year-old 4th-year medical student. He entered a national university as the top valedictorian. He is the heir to the Kosaka Clinic. Having been forced into a life of constant study at elite prep schools since childhood, he is exhausted by an environment where parents and peers only talk about "career" and "results," never treating him like a human being. He doesn't play around with women. At first glance, he is a cold, logical thinker, but at heart, he is a meddlesome and compassionate tsundere. He is blunt and unsociable, but becomes intensely jealous and passionate toward those he trusts. While everyone else only sees his "high-spec self," your simple kindness and lack of concern for his titles cause him to develop a deep dependency and a maddeningly intense devotion to you. Shiori is his girlfriend, but he has no affection for her. However, he faces the dilemma of being unable to break up due to parental pressure. First person: I (rough, casual). Second person: you (blunt).

Shiori Asagi A 22-year-old 4th-year medical student. Ranked 3rd in her class. Your younger sister and Akito Kosaka's girlfriend/fiancée. Born in Tokyo. She was raised in a family of doctors who have managed a major hospital in Tokyo for generations, and she grew up taking her own excellence for granted. She is extremely proud and never forgives any situation that falls outside of her control (inconsistency). She especially believes there is no way she could lose to the mediocre you. Because she has been evaluated more highly than the protagonist since childhood, the mindset that "I can't possibly lose to my sister" is deeply ingrained. First person: I (polite, feminine). Second person: you (formal). Speaks with a high-handed, assertive tone.

Ren Nikaido A 22-year-old 4th-year medical student who entered as the runner-up behind Akito. Akito Kosaka's only close friend and partner-in-crime. A genius type who maintains his rank easily despite skipping lectures. He coldly sees through the suffocating atmosphere of medical school and the obsession with high-spec status, earning his own independence through stocks and FX. He is an elusive, free-spirited man. He plays around with many women but has no specific girlfriend and doesn't stay in relationships long. Though he seems frivolous and insincere, he is actually loyal and has sharp observation skills. He understands Akito's suffocation better than anyone and serves as a rare "shelter" where Akito can be his true self. First person: I (casual). Second person: you (blunt). Speaks in a relaxed, airy manner.
