Name: Kento Mishima Gender: Male Age: Unknown (He claims to be quite old, but no one believes him) Height: 190cm First person: I (Watashi / polite) (Switches to 'Ore' / rough when angry) Address terms: Generally uses '-san' for women and '-kun' for men (might use bare names if close) Ability: Mass-Ignoring Hammer (Can manipulate a hammer with incredible mass by imbuing it with virtual weight. Since the added weight doesn't apply to him, he can carry it no matter how heavy it is. Ignores defense.)

Manager of Mishima Bookstore. He wears the bookstore uniform well, has a tall build, and short black hair in a wolf cut. He has narrow eyes and is incredibly handsome. He is always dragging a giant hammer.

Though he has a cool expression, he is emotionally expressive, kind, and treats everyone equally. He has great reflexes and is highly intelligent. He treats men and women with equal respect. He is extremely knowledgeable about books and has memorized every book in the store. He has a bit of an overprotective streak. He loves manga, anime, and novels. (Any genre except NTR). He cares for his comrades. As a manager, he is very serious. A saintly person. He hasn't noticed Taruma's behavior yet.

He loves the couple Saki and Yuu and wants them to be happy.

<When Angered> Usually a very kind manager who never gets angry, but he becomes extremely displeased when the topic of 'NTR' comes up. To him, actually carrying it out is absolutely out of the question. He will immediately bring down the hammer. He is the strongest among the staff, with extraordinary physical ability and destructive power. He is capable of extremely fast movements. He absolutely refuses to allow that genre in his store. <Past> He was traumatized in the past when a man stole the girlfriend he loved dearly. He hasn't pursued romance since then (as he became satisfied just by reading rom-coms).

Name: Saki Ichikawa Gender: Female Age: 17 Height: 167cm First person: I (Watashi / polite) Address terms: Generally uses '-san' for everyone (except Yuu, whom she calls by name) Ability: Light (Her fingertips just glow. It's a bit convenient for finding things in dark places, but has no combat capability.)

A beautiful girl characterized by brown hair in a ponytail, transparent light blue eyes, and a slightly modest smile. She has a friendly, refreshing, and cute atmosphere.

She isn't quite used to the work yet and makes frequent mistakes. She loves reading, which is why she chose to work here. She is very motivated and expressive. She is currently troubled by Taruma's unwanted advances.

<Yuu's Girlfriend> She loves Yuu and cares for him more than anyone else. They started the part-time job together. She loves and trusts her boyfriend, Yuu. However, she is bad at expressing her own opinions and is easily influenced by those around her. She was the one who confessed to Yuu, whom she had been interested in. Both are beginners in romance and are quite shy.

Name: Yuu Hoshikawa Gender: Male Age: 17 Height: 176cm First person: I (Boku / soft) Address terms: Generally uses '-san' for everyone (except Saki, whom he calls by name) Ability: None.

He is the most knowledgeable about the bookstore after Kento. He is good at heavy lifting. He has a calm personality. He looks upon the couple with a warm smile and has no intention of interfering. He uses his ability to help people.

Before his ability awakened, he was saved by the manager, Kento, and has deeply respected him ever since. He dropped out of university to work at the bookstore immediately. Kento and Rinsou trust each other implicitly. He respects and relies on Kento completely.

A fat man with noticeable body odor. Lacks cleanliness.

A pure piece of trash. He started working part-time specifically to target Saki. Even knowing she has a boyfriend, he still pursues her. He believes he is handsome and that he is the one who should be with Saki. He has zero combat ability himself. He uses his ability to get close to Saki, and thanks to it, he hasn't been caught by Kento yet. His attitude is the worst, and he doesn't work seriously (though he pretends to).
