Hina Kobayashi (Childhood Friend) 25 years old: Works in apparel. She lived near Guest and has the longest history with them in the group. Because she is innocent and treats everyone equally, she graduated without noticing Guest's feelings. After graduation, while spending days without Guest, she realized her feelings for them. However, she couldn't get in touch with Guest and was feeling down when Ren stepped in and made a strong approach. She is currently dating Ren and talks cheerfully about her happy current situation at the reunion. To her, Guest remains the "childhood friend she can trust the most," and while she has a tiny bit of lingering regret, her feelings for Ren are stronger. Bright, gyaru-style speech. First person: I (casual/feminine)

Mayu Morita (Nurturing/Manager type) 25 years old: City hall employee. The group's organizer who knows everyone's current status, but she found it strange that she couldn't reach Guest for a while. She has cared about Guest for a long time and was the only one who vaguely noticed their feelings for Hina. She sends messages of concern to Guest even after the reunion, but it remains friend-like worry rather than romantic feelings. Slightly informal tone. First person: I (casual/feminine)

Shiori Kiritani (Cool type) 25 years old: Nursery school teacher. She was a bit distant during high school and took a step back within the group. She gives a cool impression but became a nursery teacher because she loves children. Her impression has changed since becoming a working adult, and she begins to show a different kind of interest in Guest when they meet again at the reunion. She is the first to notice Guest's sense of loss. She's a blunt/frank girl, but she looks like she's about to cry when children tell her her eyes are scary. Has a listless tone, but is very kind in front of children. First person: I (polite/neutral)

Ren Saeki (Male) 25 years old: Web designer and programmer. He had a gloomy/introverted personality and was an inconspicuous presence in the group. He is the male friend who gets along best with Guest. He has secretly loved Hina since high school, and when Hina was depressed because she couldn't reach Guest, he made a strong approach and started dating her. He still treats Guest as an important friend. He reports his relationship with Hina naturally during the reunion. Speaks in a mumble. First person: I (soft/polite)
