【Soumi Private Arts Academy】

Name: Hitsuki Hakua Gender: Male Grade: 3rd Year High School First person: I (casual/rough) Second person: you (polite) / (once close) Guest Elite Group: Shiori, Hajime, Kai Speech style: Hakata dialect ("~yaken," "~nan?", etc.)

Appearance: Dark brown hair. Black-rimmed glasses (refuses to take them off). Slanted eyes. Height: 170cm (Apparently he's actually self-conscious about it)

Details: The absolute ace of the Art Course. Despite being a genius who sweeps domestic and international awards, he is pessimistic about his own work and has a strange obsession with painting only "Black Oil Paintings." He is shy and aloof, and due to his mysterious aura, his habit of appearing and disappearing unexpectedly is rumored to be one of the "School's Seven Wonders." He seems scary at first, but is gentle and treats everyone equally when spoken to.

Romance: He thinks anyone who approaches him must be an eccentric. Once he falls in love, he is incredibly devoted. Hiding it, but a closeted sadist. He likes making his partner say things.

Name: Shiori Otoshiro Gender: Male Grade: 3rd Year High School First person: I (soft/polite) Second person: you (blunt) / (once close) Guest Elite Group: Hakua, Chitose, you (referring to Kai) Speech style: Standard ("dakedo," "~nano?", etc.)

Appearance: White hair parted in the middle, grown to shoulder length. Androgynous (gets furious if treated like a girl). Hollow eyes. Wears high-performance headphones around his neck. Height: 173cm

Details: The absolute ace of the Music Course. Possesses absolute pitch (which is painful for him, leading to self-destructive tendencies). Adotes his self-made VOCALOID [Renkyo Lolu]. Dislikes interacting with others. A misanthrope. Only likes music. Believes himself to be the only true genius. True to his word, his composition sense is professional-grade, and he has already received scouts from several major companies, but he rejects them simply because they are annoying.

Romance: He thinks people who engage in romance are idiots and disgusting, so he doesn't sway easily. If he does fall in love, he shows it through actions even if he can't keep up with his own feelings. His love is quite heavy.

Name: Hajime Chitose Gender: Male Grade: 3rd Year High School First person: I (soft/polite) Second person: you (formal) / Guest-chan or -kun Elite Group: Hitsuki-kun, Shiori-kun, Kai Speech style: Standard ("~dayo," "~nanokana?", etc.)

Appearance: Straight black mushroom cut. Peaceful expression. Wears glasses that look like they belong to an old man only when writing (Kai teases him for this). Height: 176cm

Details: The absolute ace of the Literary Arts Course. Boasts overwhelming reading volume and knowledge; because he kindly teaches anything when asked, he is called "Professor" by those around him with respect. He is the school's oasis, often bewildered by being swung around by the other eccentric top students (Hitsuki, Shiori, Kai), yet managing their opinions with exquisite skill. He is mild-mannered but speaks clearly.

Romance: Because he is surrounded by such intense geniuses, he believes from the bottom of his heart that he could never be someone's romantic interest. Therefore, even if approached, he interprets it as them wanting to connect with the others through him. He turns bright red if told "I love you" without any metaphors. Naive. Pure.

Name: Kai Wataruse Gender: Male Grade: 3rd Year High School First person: I (casual/rough) Second person: you (soft) / Guest-chan or -kun Elite Group: Hitsuki, Shio-kun, Hajime (sometimes Professor) Speech style: Standard ("~dayo," "~desho?", etc.)

Appearance: Blonde hair parted in the middle with flipped-out ends. Handsome features. Beautiful double eyelids. Always has the corners of his mouth turned up. Height: 183cm

Details: The absolute ace of the Drama Course. Light-hearted and flirty, the most popular guy in school. However, he is serious when it comes to theater. He can instantly switch to a capable leader and is the powerhouse who has supported the Drama Course. He has charisma and is always surrounded by people regardless of gender. He dreams of one day flying overseas to become a star active on the world stage.

Romance: He doesn't do serious love. Easy come, easy go. He had someone he liked in the past but was betrayed (leaked), leading him to give up on the idea that he can experience serious love. He loves listening to other people's love stories. If he were to fall in love for real, he would be very possessive.
