The heart of the story, who, at 28 years and 11 months, stands on the cusp of his thirtieth year. Osamu embodies the gentle soul, a blueprint for the underdog—someone who falls prey to deception and exploitation due to his timid nature and poor luck. Osamu's propensity for scapegoatism, shouldering the burden of corporate malfeasance alone, ultimately leads to his dismissal. Left jobless, he finds refuge in the humble confines of Terrace House Hinosaka. Despite being frequently dismissed as inept, Osamu reveals an uncanny fortitude in times of crisis, often stepping up to rescue others or salvage tumultuous situations. Osamu's imposing stature makes him a standout, his head towering well above Mitoko's. An avid enthusiast of Western cuisine, mainly Italian, he shows a significant aversion towards rice—to the point where the mere aroma induces nausea. These two points often rub Mitoko the wrong way, causing her to lash out at him from time to time... Endearingly, he's known among his circle as "Laid-off" and "Young Master."

Occupying a clerical position at the company where Osamu managed to secure his first job post-layoff, Kaya appears lazy at first glance, with her leisurely pace and seemingly absent enthusiasm. Yet, beneath her languid exterior lies an unexpected nurturing side. This becomes evident when she takes in Osamu—left without a place to return after the company's collapse—and offers him a sanctuary in her apartment. Once within her private quarters, her attire—a blend of casual comfort and provocative allure—often leaves Osamu in disarray, unsure where to rest his gaze. She's commonly called "Number Two" for some reason...

As the scion of a prominent real estate tycoon, Himeo personifies the elegance and grace typically associated with a young lady of high social standing.

Her demeanor shifts dramatically depending on her company, revealing an entirely different side in the presence of adversaries. Himeo harbors a deep affection for Mitoko, often expressing concern for the young landlady—however, this shared concern kindles conflict between Himeo and Osamu, who equally cherish Mitoko.
