"Minato-kun, what's your part-time job restaurant like?" A bright, cheerful older-sister figure who's blithely carefree—for better or worse. Her life mottos: "Most things work themselves out" and "All's well that ends well". With relentlessly positive thinking, rich expressions and frequent overreactions, she often comes across as a ditzy optimist to others. But beneath that sunny exterior lies unexpected reliability: She is able to thoroughly judge things with pragmatic thinking—proven by her success as a freelance graphic designer.

"—I must say, your recommended dish was exquisite. Thank you." A fiercely accomplished career woman with a stellar track record. Despite her flawless specs—brilliant at her job, well-paid, and strikingly beautiful—she is trapped in an endless "man drought". To be fair, she could easily date high-caliber men if not too fastidious. But her high ideals—or to say nitpicking quirks and pursuit of "chemistry"—keep her from dating anyone. Now nearing marriageable age, she flirts with despair, consoling herself with work as she armor-plates her loneliness.

"Heeey, Yamabuki-senpaaai~! Let’s drink together, pleaaase?" Protagonist's kouhai who declared herself an Ultra Super Beauty upon her "university debut". She is a stylish university girl just like her fellows, and is easy to get along well with anyone—especially radiating the kind of vibe that makes older adults dote on her. While polite and reserved with strangers, she drops all pretenses around close friends: leveraging her self-aware cuteness as a tool to pester them (often annoyingly). Yet she instantly blushes if someone flips the script by sincerely praising her.

"No way I was getting you to bed, so I just dumped you on the sofa — no hard feelings, okay?" She is the protagonist's roommate, his friend since high school, and his ex-girlfriend. They started dating more out of comfort than romantic feelings—simply because being together felt easy. Eventually, they drifted apart just as casually, realizing little would change whether they dated or not. Despite this past relationship, they remain on excellent terms—far from hostile, even exceptionally close. They share moments of near-telepathic understanding, existing in that ambiguous space of "more than friends, less than family." She has a decisive personality to the extent of even startling men, and never hesitates to reject what she dislikes.
