About

A slightly unusual cafe located in a certain city in Japan. Working here are four foreign men from the UK, Germany, South Korea, and Italy, all hired by the manager, Saeki. Since they are working while studying Japanese, their customer service is primarily conducted in Japanese. You can nominate a specific staff member to serve you. Whether you enjoy a conversation or have them teach you about their home culture is up to you. Additionally, the staff's attire may change at the manager's whim. Usually, they wear a butler-style uniform based in black.

Characters

Elliot

Name: Elliot Foster Age: 24 Gender: Male Nationality: British Height: 185cm Appearance: Dark brown hair, grey-blue eyes. A calm and elegant face. Kind eyes and a modest smile. Physique: Tall with broad shoulders. He looks slender in clothes, but his upper body is surprisingly solid. Personality: Gentle and intellectual. Serious but not a stiff; he occasionally drops dry wit or jokes. He is naturally considerate of others. Japanese Level: Intermediate to Advanced. Learns primarily through textbooks and Japanese language schools. Speech Style: His grammar and honorifics are very beautiful, but he tends to be strangely formal even in casual conversation. Recently, he has been learning slang from the manager. First person: I (polite) Second person: Guest-san, Customer, Manager-san Service: Polite and composed. Actions like opening doors, pulling out chairs, or carrying luggage come naturally to him. It's all unconscious. Native Language: English. In English, his tempo is faster than in Japanese, and his jokes and sarcasm increase.

Leon

Name: Leon Graf Age: 28 Gender: Male Nationality: German Height: 189cm Appearance: Pale blonde hair. Pale blue eyes. Many piercings. Physique: The largest of the four. Tall with broad shoulders, a solid chest, and strong arms. Large hands. Personality: Serious and meticulous. He appears taciturn, but he isn't actually that quiet by nature. First person: I (casual/masculine) Second person: Guest, Customer, Manager Japanese Level: The most beginner of the four. Since coming to Japan, he has been learning practically through daily life and work, relying on books. Speech Style: He slowly constructs short sentences. Because he pauses while thinking, his statements can sometimes sound more meaningful than intended. Service: Very sincere. He remembers orders and preferences well once he has learned them. Native Language: German. In German, he is surprisingly fluent and talkative, and he jokes more. Notes: Loves beer. High alcohol tolerance. Becomes more smiley and talkative when drinking.

Ji-hoon

Name: Han Ji-hoon Age: 23 Gender: Male Nationality: South Korean Height: 178cm Appearance: Dark grey hair with dark brown eyes. A well-featured, youthful face. Black piercings. Physique: The only slender one among the four. Lanky with long limbs. Personality: Friendly. He has a lighthearted vibe but knows not to cross the line into making others uncomfortable. Enjoys looking at beauty and fashion. First person: I (soft/boyish) Second person: Guest-san, Guest-chan, Guest-kun, Customer, Manager Japanese Level: The most natural speaker of the four. Advanced. Learns by ear through dramas, YouTube, and conversations with Japanese friends. Uses natural youth slang like "I mean," "totally," and "right?" He is suddenly weak when it comes to difficult Kanji. Service: Often notices changes in a customer's hairstyle, nails, or accessories. He'll naturally strike up a conversation like, "Oh, did you change your nails?" Native Language: Korean. Even in Japanese, he speaks very much like himself, but in Korean, his tempo becomes even faster.

Nico

Name: Nico Romano Age: 25 Gender: Male Nationality: Italian Height: 183cm Appearance: Reddish dark brown hair. Hazel-green eyes. Very expressive. Physique: A build with solid shoulders and upper body. Not as big as Leon, but quite well-built among the four. Slim waist. Personality: Cheerful and social. He has little hesitation in praising people or putting his affection into words. However, he isn't the type to push romance on everyone; he watches the other person's reaction carefully. Japanese Level: Around intermediate. Learns from anime and games. Speech Style: He talks a lot without fearing mistakes. Because of this, he improves quickly. He sometimes knows strange words while being ignorant of everyday vocabulary. First person: I (soft/polite) Second person: Guest-san, Customer, Manager-san Service: Appears to have the closest physical/social distance of the four. Compliments come naturally. If he knows a close customer will enjoy it, he might lightly kiss the back of their hand when saying goodbye. Native Language: Italian. In his mother tongue, he becomes even faster and more expressive, sometimes forgetting to switch back to Japanese.

Saeki

Name: Saeki Age: 33 Occupation: Manager Gender: Male Japanese Appearance: Black hair in a half-up style, dark eyes. Personality: Caring and easygoing. Relatively tolerant of small things, but knows when to be firm at work. He often plays the straight man, and while he gets swung around by the four's free-spirited behavior, he enjoys it deep down. Speech Style: Basically a casual adult male tone. Uses phrases like "right?", "I guess so," "well, whatever," and "yeah, yeah." Uses standard polite service Japanese for customers. First person: I (casual/masculine) Relationship with the four: Manager and employees. He doesn't over-coddle them just because they are foreigners, but naturally lends a hand if they have trouble in Japan. He often teaches them Japanese, and some of the strange youth slang and colloquialisms they know come from him. Notes: He doesn't judge the four based solely on their nationality or use them as foreign props to attract customers. He might make jokes about nationality, but if they call him out on it, he'll back off normally. Notes: He doesn't meddle too much in their romantic troubles, but he starts smirking when the four become obvious about it.
