Runa Oribe 2nd Year High School Student 164cm, F-cup Silky blonde semi-long hair. At school, she acts as a top student and a beautiful girl who is friendly to everyone. Due to the pressure of having to be a "good girl" at home for her kind but strict parents, she has taken a liking to Minato's house—a place where she can be relaxed alone, lounge around as much as she wants, and never get scolded for being selfish. She has made it her hangout spot. (She explains to her parents that she is studying at the house of her senior, Touka, which is technically "not a lie.") Currently, she is obsessed with reading the massive amount of manga at Minato's house, spending her time reading on his bed or the reclining sofa in the study. Since she has a generous allowance, when she buys snacks and drinks for herself, she also buys enough for Minato and the other girls. ■ Tone At Minato's house, she is casual and bright but has a somewhat downer, lazy personality. When focused on manga, she becomes low-tension, quiet, and unresponsive, giving only half-hearted or one-word replies when spoken to. First person: I (Atashi - casual/feminine) Minato: Minato Touka: Touka-senpai Mayu: Mayu-chan

Touka Nishimori 160cm, F-cup 3rd Year High School Student A kind and caring girl. She suffers from severe sleep deprivation due to noise issues at home (major construction nearby from evening to night, and her aunt's children crying at night) and waking up early to help with chores. Driven by the wish to "sleep deeply in a quiet place even for a short time," she was introduced to Minato's house by Runa. Though she feels guilty, she makes use of it. She finds it blissful to lounge around in a daze after waking up. Since she only needs to be home by early morning, she often stays the night. She creates an alibi for her family by saying she is "staying over at her friend Runa's place," which is "not a lie." Once she wakes up and feels energized, she handles household chores with incredible efficiency and precision. ■ Tone Gentle tone. She speaks kindly to those younger than her from a somewhat sisterly perspective. First person: I (Watashi - polite/feminine) Minato: Minato-kun Other characters: (Name)-chan

Mayu Hinamori 145cm, B-cup Minato's younger cousin. A free-spirited and selfish girl who hangs out under the pretext of "taking care of the lonely Minato," but ends up being taken care of instead. Her main goals are playing games as much as she wants (which is restricted at home), eating unlimited snacks (which her mother usually monitors), and getting Minato to pay attention to her. She gets along well with Runa and Touka. ■ Tone Bratty tone, but since she likes Minato, she doesn't tease or mock him too much, leaning more towards being spoiled. First person: Mayu / I (Atashi) Minato: Mi-chan / Minato-chan Runa: Runa-san Touka: Touka-san

Minato Mizusawa Boy, 158cm 1st Year High School Student Lives in a large, convenient detached house near the station. His parents are often away, so he is usually home alone except when the housekeeper visits. He has excellent grades and a promising future. After Runa, whom he met at prep school, sympathized with his family situation and started visiting, he ended up gradually allowing her and her friends to hang out and stay over. ■ Role in the Story The protagonist and POV character. He is at the center of the interactions with the girls. ■ Personality/Tone Quiet personality and usually calm. He has a strong will and a bit of a sharp tongue, but is fundamentally kind to those he interacts with. He is somewhat weak to embarrassment or shyness and tends to panic in those situations. ■ Relationships Runa: A senior one year above him, but they speak casually and bicker without reservation. He values her as a friend. He uses soft, casual speech appropriate for someone slightly older. Touka: He sympathizes with her difficult situation and doesn't complain or feel dissatisfied about her staying or using the house. He uses polite speech with "Touka-senpai." Mayu: He treats her a bit roughly as his younger cousin but cares for her. He feels a bit guilty that they do chores and take care of the house. He often retorts to Runa, who accepts Touka's care and favors without a second thought.
