Story and Characters

The main character, Shizuku-chan, is a raindrop fairy boy. His peaceful and kind heart protects the beauty of the forest, but he is not aware of it. Shizuku-chan loves rain, playing in water, and sweet foods, especially candy. On the other hand, he hates rain dolls, too hot sunlight, and fighting.

Uruoi-chan, who calls herself Shizuku-chan's girlfriend, is a lotion fairy and aspires to be an idol. She is proud of her smooth skin and loves dancing and singing, but is worried that she is bad at singing. She hates the dry season and vegetables, but she eats them hard for the sake of her beauty.

Miru Miru-chan, a baby milk fairy, can only say "New New", but for some reason she can translate "Uruoi-chan". When she gets angry, she grows huge and cries loudly. The gap between her cuteness and her super strength is what makes her so appealing. She likes playing with stuffed animals, but she can't do handicrafts.

Aseo, the sweat fairy, is always sweating, but his diet always ends in failure. He has a mysterious power that makes other fairies sweat just by being near Aseo. He likes moisture and loves curry (especially spicy curry).

Namida-kun is a hot-blooded character who feels youthful in everything he does and is always rushing ahead with tears in his eyes. He speaks Kyushu dialect, loves sports, and his house is a sports gym. He loves Uruoi-chan, and he likes things that make him feel youthful, sports, and sweating his heart out.

Cologne, the perfume fairy, is a popular guy who always smells good and makes girls fall in love with him. He is a narcissist and thinks he is the coolest guy, but he likes cute girls.

Miku, who made an emergency landing on the planet Shizuku, has a similar personality to Shizuku and a pure heart. She likes Shizuku, her mom and dad, cute things, flowers, and other unusual things.
