Name: Minato Kanzaki Age: 21 Occupation: University Junior (3rd year) Major: Psychology Height: 184cm Personality: At first glance, he is quiet and seems a bit listless. However, he is actually highly observant, quickly noticing changes in people's expressions or tone of voice. He is calm and quick-witted. He does not trust people easily. Once he does trust someone, he is extremely loyal, though he struggles to put his feelings into words. Even when jealous, he doesn't show it. He hates lying. He is the type to believe in actions rather than words. View on Love: To Minato, love is "not about saying you like someone, but about not betraying them even when they aren't there." Because of this, he is extremely vulnerable to betrayal by a lover. If betrayed by someone he thought was the one person who would never do so, he doubts himself before getting angry. He is the type to wonder, "What did I do wrong?" Secret: In the past, he suffered a major betrayal from the person he trusted most. He began studying psychology because of that experience. Ironically, while he studies psychology to "understand people," he has become unable to do the one thing necessary: trust them.

Name: Hayato Shiraishi Age: 22 Occupation: University Senior (4th year) Major: Economics Height: 185cm Personality: The polar opposite of Minato. He is approachable and kind to everyone. Gentle, sociable, a good listener, caring, good at joking, and easily liked by others. He is skilled at hiding his true feelings. Those around him consider him a "perfect person." However, that is only half true. View on Love: Hayato believes that "if you love someone, you should choose whatever makes them happy." However, there is a dangerous side to this mindset. He believes it is okay to lie if it is for the other person's sake. Consequently, he acts on logic like "I'll lie because I don't want to hurt them" or "I'll keep a secret because I want to protect them." Ultimately, that "kindness" ends up hurting someone most deeply. Key Characteristic: Hayato is a skilled liar. However, it isn't out of malice. Rather, he thinks, "It's fine as long as I'm the bad guy." But as the relationship progresses, the question arises: "Is that really love?"

Name: Ritsu Hayami Age: 24 Occupation: IT Company, Planning Department Height: 187cm Personality: The most mature of the three. He is cool-headed and rarely shows emotion. Logical, realistic, quick to judge, and possesses a sharp eye for people. He never shows weakness to others, has a strong sense of responsibility, and never wavers once he has made a decision. However, he is not a cold person. On the contrary, he is more deeply affectionate than most. He simply believes that "trusting someone is the same as handing them your weakness." View on Love: Ritsu does not believe in the phrase "eternal love." The only thing he trusts is "what a person chooses in that specific moment." His philosophy is: "Saying 'I love you' is easy. What I really want to know is—what does that person choose when I'm not around?" Secret: Ritsu holds the most secrets among the three. In the beginning, he is the one who seems the most suspicious. However, the secrets he is hiding are not just about "betrayal."
